Thank you Simple Tulip

A quick and simple tulip for spring, it doesn't take too long so the little 'uns won't get bored!:zzz:

Cut the 'cup' part off an egg box, paint it your desired colour, poke a hole through the bottom with a sharp pencil, push a straw (green) throught the hole and hold in place with a blob of yellow plasticene.

If you glue the cup to a petal shape backround and paint it all yellow - hey presto! you have a daffodil.

talking about tulips.if you want them to last and stand tall take a pin and push it through the stem an inch from base of flower. Do it again so that you have a prick North to south and east to west or how er you want to say it. This really does work.

Excellent tip Patsy, I'll give that a go, it'll make a nice change not having tulips laid on the windowsill!!
