Get your choice of printable papers for flower cones HERE. Click on the image you want to use and then click on DOWNLOAD in the upper right-hand corner. Then they are ready to print! Easy-peasy!
To make the paper cones, select and print out your fun cone paper. Cut the paper into an 8″ x 8″ square. Roll the paper into a cone with the paper on the diagonal. Use the bottom point as the point of the cone.
If you have decorative scissors use them to cut the paper.
Hot glue the seam shut.
Tissue paper adds some pretty color and fluff to the Valentine DIY flower cone arrangement. And it makes just a few flowers look full and pretty!
Cut out colorful squares from the tissue. Pinch the center of the paper squares and give it a turn to make a little tissue paper
Keep the flowers in the cone fresh by cutting the stems at a 45% angle and sandwiching the stems between paper towels that have been soaked in water and floral food solution. Remember to cut the flowers to the size of the cone.
Wrap the paper towels holding the stems of the flowers securely in plastic wrap so they don’t leak.
Slip the flowers into the cone and add the tissue paper puffs.
Tie a bow around the flower cone using a pretty ribbon and put a tiny dot of hot glue under the center of the bow to hold it in place.
Or hot glue ribbon to either side of the cone and hang the cone to a door handle.
Easy-peasy! Why not make a few pretty flower cone Valentine DIY’S and deliver them to the wonderful women in your life?

Yvonne, I so remember many years ago being so mesmerized by your creativeness…learning how simple DIY’s can be larger than life beautiful…this one is no exception…love the beautiful cones of Valentine’s Day flowers and I can see this being used in other holidays too..like May Day..and what a treat for guests to have too! When I go flower shopping I take a bucket of water and fill it with paper towels and water…a trick I learned from the Whole Foods florist and I see that you use that too!!! It is a wonderful pleasure to participate in the first Monday of the Month with you…Miss you lots!!! Have a great week Yvonne and regards to your sweet Valentine, Bobby!
