  Step 1

  Cut a spiral shape out of the 3 or 4 coffee filters (together, to save time!) roll each one starting from the center and adding on a filter until you have the fullness you want.

  Step 2

  Hot glue a skewer to the base of the flower. Wrap florist tape at the base and spiral down to cover the stem. Add a bit of hot glue to get the tape started.

  Step 3

  Dye your flowers with a water-color bath, tea, or anything else you can find in your kitchen. I used red wine vinegar. Hang it upside down to dry. You can also use a hair dryer to speed up drying time.

  Step 4

  Curl some of the petals under by rolling the edges around a skewer. That's it!
