Directions: 1. Fold squares of red paper into quarters, then diagonally into eighths, as shown in the diagram. 2. Trace the two patterns on the two folded squares as shown, one on each square. 3. Cut the folded squares on the pattern lines and unfold the shapes. They will have a slight bowl shape. 4. Glue the smaller shape inside the larger one. 5. Cut a small (2cm or 3/4 in) circle of black paper and glue it in the centre of the flower. 6. Glue the twist tie on the back of the flower so that it can be tied onto a shirt button or other object. Without the twist tie glued on, the Poppies can be used to decorate a bulletin board by using a push pin or tack in the centre. A wreath can be made by bending a coat hanger into a circle and covering with crumpled black paper, and attaching poppies with twist ties. Cut a strip of paper long enough to go from one side to the other of the wreath and attach, with an inscription lettered on it like "We Remember," or "Lest We Forget".
