Irrespective of whether you are a complete novice or whether you have tried it before, or whether your are a child or an adult, you can learn how to make a seed pod for the middle of your flower from a polystyrene ball and crepe paper. Learn a simple technique by using thick crepe paper with a high stretch percentage. Shape the paper without breaking it. The crepe paper only stretches in one direction, so make sure to orient the paper in the right direction.
