Book Page Flowers

September 18, 2012 By Meegan 4 Comments

Hey everyone! There is a fun and easy craft for you with book pages today. Book Page Flowers are SO easy and fun to create.

I am thinking about a few Fall ideas.  Against my will, Fall is coming upon us! These book page flowers are perfect for anytime of year.

How To Make Book Page Flowers

Here are 2 book page flowers I made. I just love how they turned out! I think you will, too.

*This post was updated November 2025.

This is how I made my Book Page Flower, it actually has similar steps as my book page wreath.  Oh so easy!

Start off by buying a book at the thrift store and tear out the pages.

Book Page Flower Petals

Using craft scissors, make 3 sizes of petals. With about 1/2 inch difference for each size. The petals are NOT cut perfectly. That’s what makes this so easy to make, too.

Book Page Flower Steps

 To adhere the book page petals use a glue gun to a square of cardstock piece about 6×6 inches.

Large Petals for Book Page Flower

Start with the larger petals for the first row. Fill it in until it looks full and relatively even.

Second Layer of Smaller Petals on Book Page Flower

Fill in the second row with the smaller petals. Bringing them closer to the center. So far, so good!

Middle of Book Page Flower

For the center, glue 3 tiny petals together.

They perfectly fill the center of the flower.

Book Page Flower Paper Clip Holder

This part is so cool! Use a clip paper clip for a hanger! Easy, right?

Clip it onto a corner of the cardstock for easy hanging. Put a nail or tack in the wall and you will be set.

Since it is a clip, you can even clip Book Page Flowers to furniture, a lampshade or any accessory. OR even on a present for the vintage lover and a unique look.
