So, in order to decide what to make a flower for mom, options with a detailed description will be given below.
Open tulip
For the manufacture we need colored square leaves (8x8 cm), A4 green paper , scissors and glue.
1. Let's get started, let's make the flowers. To do this, fold a square piece of paper in half, then again and for the last time vertically.
2. We unfold, there are bending lines on the sheet, they will serve as a guide for incisions. The bend lines form four small triangles, each of them must be cut in the middle. The notch should be larger than the middle of the line.
3. Next, you need to glue the future flower for mom. The corner that we cut off must be glued to the next corner. In total, four triangles need to be glued together.
4. The tulip bud is ready, now let's move on to making the legs. Take a sheet of green paper, cut it in half. After this, you need to twist the sheet into a tube, gluing its end.
5. We proceed to fix the stem to the bud. To do this, cuts are made at the end of the tube 1-1.5 cm long. Having spread the incised shreds, you need to grease them with glue, and then glue them to the bottom of the bud. That’s all done.
In order for our flowers to be more natural for our mother (with our own hands), you can cut and paste leaves on the stem. The more flowers you make, the more magnificent the bouquet will turn out.
Voluminous tulip
This is a more complicated version of origami, but the effort is worth it. To make a flower, you need a square sheet of colored paper and patience. In just 13 steps, the original flower for mom will be ready. So let's get started:
1. We take a prepared sheet of paper.
2. Fold it diagonally for layout.
3. The resulting triangle is folded in half again.
4. Return the sheet to its original position, and then fold it horizontally.
5. We have a rectangle with marked triangles. Two small triangles on the left and on the right are folded inward, like an accordion.
6. The result is a double triangle. Bend the top layer to the left and right.
7. We do the same on the reverse side.
8. Turn the top layer on both sides from right to left.
9. The top layer of paper is folded toward the middle. To do the same operation from the reverse side.
10. It is necessary to fill the left corner in the middle of the right.
11. Turning the workpiece over, perform a similar operation.
12. A small hole forms on top of our tulip. Through it you need to inflate a tulip.
13. The last step remains, bend four petals from the top. And our tulip is ready.
The figure below shows each step of making a volumetric flower. But to complete the composition, do not forget about the stem and leaves. How to make them has been described above. Paper flowers as a gift to mom can be arranged in the form of a bouquet. An interesting decision to make tulips of different colors, pieces 5-7, tied with a beautiful ribbon.

Gorgeous flowers that are sold exclusively in pots. But in a paper version, hyacinths with stems can be made. In order to make a spring flower for mom, you need colored paper, scissors and glue. The following is step-by-step instructions.
1. First we make the stem, for this we roll up a green sheet of A4 paper. We fix the end with glue for strength.
2. Now let's start making flowers. To do this, cut a color sheet of A4 format into four parts.
3. Take one resulting square, fold in half and cut along the entire length of the bend line. Leaving approximately 1 cm untouched.
4. Now proceed to the assembly of the flower. We apply glue to the untouched part of the incised square and glue it round to the top of our stem.
5. Now we bend the previously made incisions for the appearance of volume.
6. Do the same with the rest of the squares. The number of squares may vary in each case.
So we got wonderful flowers for mom. With your own hands you can make the necessary amount for the bouquet. Ready-made hyacinths can be put in a jar and decorated with a ribbon.

Roses from a spiral look very original, which you can make according to the instructions below. To get started, we will prepare the necessary materials, namely: colored paper, pencil, scissors, toothpicks or bamboo skewers.

2. Draw a spiral on the resulting circle.
3. And now we cut along the lines with scissors.
