Learn how to make pipe cleaner rose rings.
We love flower crafts for Spring, Summer or for Valentine’s Day. Here is a fun craft to make with your little ones: pipe cleaner rose rings. They are fun to make and fun to give.
I am such a visual person, so I thought it would be fun to share the How-To in pictures here.
What you need to make pipe cleaner rose rings:
- 6 pipe cleaners all the same color (your choice)
- 1 green pipe cleaner (for the stem or leaf of the rose)
How to make pipe cleaner rose rings:
- Gather together all 7 pipe cleaners needed to make one pipe cleaner rose.
- Twist the 6 (same colors) together in the center.
- Wrap it around the finger that you want it for, then slide it off.
- Open them up like spider legs.
- Give each end a little bend and squeeze it tight.
- Roll each one in like a snail, pulling in tight as you go.
- Once they are all rolled in make then look more rose like by moving them around.
- Twist the green around and roll in to look like petals.
Easy enough?! These would be a great activity to do with the kids. Perfect for Valentine’s Day too!
*I fell in love with these little pipe cleaner rose rings that were featured on The Martha Stewart Show. Wendy The Pipe Cleaner Lady showed how to make these adorable Pipe Cleaner Rose Rings.

I love that you do favorite song posts! I just did my first one…but definitely couldn't narrow it down to just one song.
This would be an excellent craft to do with my little cousins 🙂

I don’t know if you are aware that Wendy The Pipecleaner Lady is the creator and designer of the rose ring. Her extraordinary talent to twist pipe cleaners into more designs than you can imagine is what landed her on the Martha Stewart Show.
Since you are enjoying twisting her ring, go to her website where you can see more of her fabulous creations at http://www.thepipecleanerlady.com.

Thank you so much for the easy to follow instructions! you made it so clear. I actually saw these on Martha Stewart, but I’m not really great at following directions, so I love the photos. My daughter and I are making these for Valentine’s Day gifts. I included a link to your page on an article I wrote about Rose crafts.
