Decorative crafts

In order to make simple and spectacular flowers you will need:

• double-sided colored paper (corrugated paper is also suitable);
• thin wire;
• sharp scissors and a pencil for marking.

It is better to take colored paper of several shades, so your flowers will look impressive and attractive - for example, it can be shades of yellow or several tones of red. Don't try to mix cool and warm colors if you doubt your taste.

For beginners, the easiest way to do this is to fold colored paper several times so that you get a stack of squares approximately 6*6. Then mark the shape of the future buds on the top square with a pencil - it can be a smooth rounded figure, regular circles, or whatever your imagination suggests.

Then, using scissors, you need to carefully cut the stack according to the shape of the marked sepal and disassemble it into components - for each flower you will need three to five blanks. The wire needs to be cut into pieces of about 15-25 centimeters, twisted on one side so that a decorative center is formed, then the previously obtained “petals” are put on each wire, after which a stand is made at the bottom of the wire (a stable ring is twisted).

With such crafts you can decorate a table for a holiday, or use them for a photo shoot or interior decor, or you can simply attach them to the wall in the nursery or in the hall near the mirror - good mood secured.

1. Disassemble the magazines into pages and choose the brightest and most colorful ones - these are the ones we will use to make decorative paper crafts.
   
   
2. Each page must be folded four times along its length, cut with fringe from the fold side, not cutting to the edge about one centimeter.
   
   
3. We begin directly making the buds - you need to take the resulting fringed ribbon and wrap it around the top of the skewer, securing it with glue or adhesive tape. This is how buds of voluminous flowers like asters and chrysanthemums are made.
   
   
4. Then you need to make several turns around the skewer with a fringed ribbon so that the bud turns out lush and beautiful. When there are enough turns, you can glue the free edge of the fringe so that the bud holds on.

Each pile is assembled into an accordion (look at the photo on how to make flowers from such accordions, if it is not too clear from the description).
