Instructions

At this step, blanks for petals are made from satin ribbon. Rectangles 7 cm long are cut from a ribbon 2.5 cm wide, and rectangles 5 cm wide are cut from another. 27 to 30 pieces are required to be prepared for one flower. large rectangles and 16-20 pcs. small ones.

Take one of the rectangles with the wrong side facing you, mentally divide it into three equal parts. Next, bend the left edge inward at an angle of 90º, with the top of the corner being at the third point. Then you need to connect the upper and lower vertices, once again bending the left edge of the tape. In this case, you should pay attention to its ends, they must converge. Next, on the front side of the obtained figure, we fold inward the sides. Moreover, the upper part is slightly bent, but the lower one is slightly larger (the lateral edges should converge in the center). Fix the edge of the petal with tweezers, and use a candle to scorch its ends. In the same way, do the rest of the flower petals.

After all the petals of the flower are collected, he remains open center. It can be covered with a bead, carnation or some other small decoration.
