1. Cut out a circle
To start, cut a circle out of the coffee filter. It doesn’t have to be a perfect circle, you can work freely by hand.
2. Paint patterns
Then draw a pattern on it with felt-tip pens. You can mix colors or draw shapes however you like.
3. Make a hole in the circle and tube
Cut a small hole in the middle of the circle and make a narrow tube from another coffee filter. Push this tube through the hole.
4. Color spectacle in the water
Place the tube with the circle in a glass one-third full of water. The filter becomes full and the colors begin to run, creating an exciting effect! Once the circle is consistently wet, allow it to dry.
5. Shape the flower and attach the drinking straw
Now shape the dried circle into a flower by gently squeezing and folding it. Then place the flower on a drinking straw. If necessary, fix it with adhesive tape so that it stays in place.
