The felt poppies seemed to work better than the crepe paper ones - the thinkness of the felt made the difference - a wonderful activity - Thankyou - Shirley NSW

I got the idea for this by watching the festive wall art and the paper poppies tutorials that you have on Golden Carers... thank you, we loved doing this.

When I did the poppies for Remembrance Day I used them in a wreath (I used a Christmas one) I also made some more poppies to put in around LED lights for effect at my service.

Lucky for us the Christmas decorations are out now..hence how I got a wreath to reuse every year....will also find a photo and add later.

What a great idea... residents will be putting them on a wreath, we are working on for Remembrance Day. I will post a photo when done.
thanks again.

Great idea. I made different poppies using tissue paper. I'll be using your ideas for next year's Remembrance Day.
