Making flowers out of paper is a very exciting, interesting and unusual activity. With the help of such crafts, you can create vivid compositions and, showing imagination, decorate your home, improving the interior and making it very cozy and sophisticated. Flowers can be made very different, we will consider how a rose is made of paper.
Before you begin this fascinating work, you need to prepare the tools. Among them: scissors, pencil, colored paper or white paper with various devices for coloring (from pencils to spray cans, which are sold in special art stores). Well, now everything is ready for a rose from paper to be born in our hands.
The first step is to decide what shade of flowers you want to create. It all depends on your taste, but in this mini-lesson we will look at how a red rose is made of paper. The manufacturing scheme is quite simple, but the result is truly impressive in its beauty!
Now that you have decided on the color, you can get to work. Take colored paper and cut a square about 12 by 12 centimeters in size. True, its sides depend on what size of flowers we want to get. The larger the bud, the larger the side of our color square. Cut out? Good. Now determine the center of the square. This can be done by eye. Put a dot in the center and start drawing a spiral. It is not necessary that it be even. However, there is a nuance here. The space between the lines that are closer to the center should be slightly larger than between those drawn closer to the edges. For example, if near the center it is about 16-18 mm, then the distance between the "marginal lines" should be 12-14 mm. The spiral should be drawn with a simple pencil, not particularly zealous when pressed: the fact is that then these lines will not look very beautiful, but you won’t be able to erase them from colored paper - there will remain white stripes and spots. However, if the paper is glossy, then you can try.
Well , did you draw a spiral? Perfectly. Now we begin to cut it, of course, starting from the outside. In this case, the corners of the square should be cut off to get just a round paper spiral.
So what should be done next? We take the end of the spiral and gently begin to twist the paper strip into a tube. It should not be very tight. Look at real roses. A well-made paper rose is almost no different from them. Rely on your sense of proportion, feel like an artist. There is some space between the petals that we need to express by making paper flowers.
When the paper strip is over, and there is more space left for folding our roses, fix the result with glue (preferably, this was an adhesive moment). Do not overdo it! A large amount of glue is immediately evident.
Well, our paper rose is ready! Surely you will want to make more than one flower, so repeat the same steps with other pieces of paper. They can be attached to living twigs that look great in some beautiful vase.
Create, and your life will undoubtedly become brighter!
