Supplies You Need For This Project
✨ Most people grab these five items
Liquitex Paint
“People often ask what kind of paint we used for this toilet paper rose bouquet. We actually used Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylic! It’s incredibly vibrant, making it the perfect choice for these paper flowers. We just mixed white and red to create all these different shades of pink and red.

Paper Towel
People often ask us what kind of paper towels make the best paper roses. We highly recommend Bounty. It holds up perfectly for our craft projects.

Skewer
Not all skewers are the same. These skewers are thick and sturdy, perfect for this flower project!

Elmer’s Glue All
Most people think glue is glue, but I’m sorry, no. I’ve tried some other brands of glue and they either don’t dry clear or they are too watery. Elmer’s is always my top glue to use for making paper flowers with paper towel.

Flower Wrapping Paper
The right wrapping paper design will make your paper flowers stand out even more! The gold edges of this black wrapping paper match perfectly with these DIY roses.
