For this flower, it is best to choose several similar shades so that its appearance is close to natural. As for the number of petals, it can be arbitrary. Consider making roses from white and crepe paper. Work plan:

1. Cut 8 small, 10 large and medium, as well as 8 largest petals. Half of the total - from crepe, and the same from white paper.

2. Make a long strip of green stem base, as well as 4 narrow and oblong green leaves that are attached at the bottom of the bud.

3. Finger round the petals, straighten one edge, slightly twisting it in the opposite direction, and twist the other.

4. Take the stalk wire and wrap it with the ribbon that we have already prepared.

5. We make the bud itself. Twist the lower edge of the smallest petal onto the wire, completely wrapping it. Apply glue to the base and place the next small petal on it. Press its half firmly to the first, the subsequent parts are sealed in the same way.

6. The remaining petals are attached as their size increases.

7. Finally, glue the leaves.

Thus, we got an amazing rose that looks like a real one.Simplified techniques exist, but their result is not so realistic.

Gentle peonies, created with your own hands, will harmoniously complement the interior of the bedroom, nursery, kitchen or hall, as well as make an excellent decor for the party.

What we need: corrugated paper in several shades; plain paper or cardboard for stencils; floral ribbon in green; PVA glue; wire; scissors; pencil.

On prepared materials, outline samples of leaves and petals, cut them. Cut corrugated paper on the line, the width of each of them should correspond to the length of the blanks. Fold the strips in an accordion, and place a stencil at the top and cut out the future parts of the bud on it.

Make frequent and long slits on the stamen templates, apply glue to the base, and wrap the workpiece on the wire. Secure the stamen with a floral tape. Lubricate the bottom of large sheets with glue, insert the stem into the stem and press the base of the sheets.

Add the bulges to the smallest petals: grasp the edges and gently pull to the sides, and press the upper edge to get a light wave. Next, fix the petals at the bottom of the stamen. Do the same with the heart-shaped parts. At the end, the 3 largest petals are added to the bud.

Glue the sepals to the bottom of the flower, and wrap the stem with floral tape. A cute and romantic flower is ready!

Before you start manufacturing, arm yourself with the following tools and materials: corrugated paper in yellow, green and white; ruler, pencil and scissors; glue or glue gun; wire, about 10-20 cm.

1. First make the white daisy petals. Take white corrugated paper and cut a strip of 5 cm wide.

2. Cut the finished tapes into thinner strips so that the width of each is 1.5–2 cm.

3. After the first two steps, cut out the petals from the strips.

4. To make the petals more natural and convex, we need to stretch the blanks in the middle.

5. To make the stalk of our future chamomile, we tightly wrap the wire with green corrugated paper. We attach paper tips using glue.

6. From a roll of yellow, you need to make a strip 1 cm wide. After that, make shallow cuts along the entire length of the workpiece.Next, wrap the blank on the tip of the stalk and form a stamen of chamomile.

Graceful and delicate carnations will become a charming decoration of your interior. Compositions of carnations combine wonderfully with wildflowers such as yarrow or gypsophila. This decor fits perfectly into the rustic style - the so-called "country".

Stock up on the necessary tools and materials: wire for making the stem; scissors, adhesive tape, glue; green and white or pink corrugated paper; crayons pastels.

1. The first step is to create the petals of our carnations. To do this, we need to make two pieces of white paper: one - 5 cm, the other - 3 cm.
2. Using lilac crayon, paint over the edges of a small strip so that one tip is more saturated. We do this from two sides.
3. Next, we cut small cloves along the entire painted edge of the strip, after which we fold it 4 times and make 4-6 shallow cuts.
4. Twist the strip into the bud. When about 10 cm remains to the end, we stretch the rest and get a wavy bend along the entire length. We fix with glue or tape.
5. In the same way we create large petals, but so that they are slightly wider.
6. Using wire and corrugated paper, make a stem and glue the finished bud to it.
7. We make sepals and a couple of leaves from green paper. To make them look more natural, they should be stretched in order to give volume.

1. We make a blank. If necessary, paint it in the desired color, then prepare templates for the petals of different shapes and cut them out.
2. Cut corrugated paper into long strips so that the width is equal to the length of the patterns. We fold our strips with an accordion, placing a template on top, and cut it out.
3. To make our petals look natural, give them a convex shape. This can be achieved by stretching them in the center. When all the details are ready, we will form a flower out of them. Put glue on the base and collect a flower of about 5-7 petals.
4. Make similar flowers from paper of a different color. Then randomly glue all the flowers on the base of the wreath.

Upon completion of all the work, you can lightly sprinkle the finished wreath with paint and glue the beads on it in a chaotic manner to give it a finished look. On this our wonderful wreath is ready!
