Although originally filmed as part of our Crepe Paper Flower Masterclass, this Crepe Paper Peony with Coral Charms tutorial has become a long-time community favorite. And as a bonus, you can tune into our Crafternoon so you can experience the joy of shaping a realistic paper flower from start to finish with me.
In this step-by-step crepe paper peony tutorial, I guide you through sculpting and stretching each petal, building a complete peony center, and assembling realistic leaves and stems using heavy crepe paper. You’ll also learn the techniques that give this flower its natural movement and characteristic cup shape, all at a thoughtful, unhurried pace.
Your download includes templates and tutorials so you can prepare with confidence before you get started. If you’re new to making crepe paper flowers, this project is a lovely introduction to heavier crepe work. And if you’ve crafted with me before, it’s a timeless bloom you’ll come back to again and again.
When your peony is finished, shape it into a paper floral arrangement with garden roses, ranunculus or soft greenery. It also makes a striking statement as a single stem in a vase, proof that one carefully made flower can be enough.
So, download your template, gather your crepe paper, and press play; I will be there with you. When you finish your video workshop on Coral Charm Peony crepe paper, be sure to share it with us on social media using #MadeWithLia. And of course, we can’t wait to see how you bring this community favorite treasure to life.
And catch up on previous Crafternoons here to watch live recordings and try out beginner crafts at any time.
