Cut tissue paper into rectangles of desired size (5"x7" is the size pictured - see photo).  

Stack around 15 pieces of tissue paper. Use the same color or different colors. If you want to use a smaller number of pieces of tissue paper, flower will not be as full.  

Accordion pleat the tissue paper working from the long side.  

Wind one end of the chenille stem around the middle of the accordion pleated tissue paper.

Trim the ends of each side to give the pedals a unique look. Trimming the ends into a point (like a triangle), or a bump (like a half circle) will look very pretty.  

Gently separate each layer pulling upwards toward the middle of the flower.
