How this list was compiled: Original list written for Draw This Next on 2026-09-23: 60 flower doodles in four kinds (single flowers, stems and sprigs, bunches and pots, borders and patterns), each marked easy, medium or hard, with the strokes to start it. Kept apart from flower-drawing-ideas, which draws real species by petal structure; no item repeats a title from any other list on the site. No facts are stated. Licence: own work

How it works

Doodled flowers are built from loops, teardrops, spirals and scallops, not copied from a real bloom. Sixty here, in four kinds and three levels.

Read the full guide

Simple flower doodles to start with

A flower of five teardrops pointing inwards and a spiral rosebud in one line each take seconds. Draw them in pen at the size of a coin, and repeat one down a margin before trying the next. A fern frond of tiny bumps needs no petals at all.

Flower doodle ideas that fill a page

Borders and patterns holds 15 that fill space, from a chain of flowers joined by curly vines to a full page of flowers with no gaps. The hard ones need a plan: pencil the grid for a tessellation of four-petal flowers first.

Vary the size, not the shape. One flower at three sizes looks planned; three different flowers look busy.
For easy doodle flowers, press harder on the outline than on the centre so the petals stand out.

Questions and answers

What is the easiest flower to doodle?

A five-loop flower drawn without lifting the pen, or a heart-petal flower with four hearts. Both are one shape repeated round a point. Easy holds 21 like them.

How do I doodle a rose?

Start with a spiral rosebud in one line, then try a rose made of nested C shapes: a tiny C in the middle and bigger ones turned round it. For a rose drawn from life, see the flower drawing ideas list.

What can I use flower doodles for?

Frame a heading, edge a card or decorate a letter. A monogram letter wrapped in a vine and a frame of flowers round a blank card both suit a handmade gift.
