Seventy-six flowers! That’s how many flowers I rolled up to make this Paper Flower Covered Egg Ornament. I think it was worth it for sure, though. I know it would have gone faster if I’d had one of those quilling tools, so that’s now on my shopping list. For this month’s Inspire My Creativity challenge, we were tasked with making pastel colored projects. I knew I wanted to use pink and that I wanted to make miniature paper flowers, so finding the wooden egg ornament in my Easter/ Spring crafts bin made the whole project come together perfectly.

That’s it! Clearly, the flowers took the longest to make, but again, if I’d have had a quilling tool, I’m sure it would have gone faster. I honestly didn’t mind rolling them by hand, though. Now I feel like I want to cover everything in mini flowers like I did this Paper Flower Covered Egg Ornament. I’m looking around my craft room to see what other blanks I can experiment on, lol. Hmm, maybe that paper mache T-Rex?

This is so beautiful! Obviously SO MUCH time went into it! Lovely!
This is seriously one of the prettiest things I’ve seen! You did a great job making the flowers look so uniform.

Absolutely beautiful! That’s all there is to say . . .
WOW! This ornament is incredible!! I can’t imagine having to roll all those flowers – I don’t think I could do it myself, but there are similar embellishments. Just gorgeous though!

Wow! That was a lot of work, but it turned out SO pretty! Love it!
Marie, that all nighter was so worth it!! Loved how this cute little egg ornament turned out. Also, these delicately paper flowers make that sturdy wooden egg look very fragil all of a sudden.
