About this coloring page
Three blossoms on long stems are gathered in a paper cone. One flower stands up in the middle, and the two at the sides lean outward, each with a cup of leaves underneath. The cone is crossed by two lines, which split it into three bands.
The cone is a great place for big, bold color, and the three bands invite a pattern. The flowers overlap one another, so there are small spaces where petals meet; taking each flower one at a time keeps things tidy.
Color ideas
- Color the three bands of the cone in a stripe pattern, such as pink, white and pink.
- Make the middle flower the brightest color on the page and the two side flowers a softer shade.
- Give the leafy cups under the side flowers a fresh green so they frame the blooms.
Did you know?
- Cut flowers keep drinking water up through their stems, which is why they need a vase of fresh water.
- In Victorian England, people gave flowers secret meanings and used bouquets to send messages without words.

Decide who this bouquet is for, then draw a small gift tag beside the cone and write or dictate their name on it.
