Scroll past the video for some extra tips on how to inflate the tulip if you are having any problems with this step.



Tips for Inflating the Tulip

To make the tulip, there is a step where you have to blow into the flower, inflating it - this works best if the paper you are using is not to thick or heavy- that’s not to say that the tulip wont work with thicker paper, because it still will, it's just that the inflation step is easier with thinner paper. So see how you go, and if you are having trouble with this step, just try a thinner paper, like gift wrap for example.
