When there are always flowers in an apartment or house, even the air seems cleaner and more pleasant. It is difficult to please yourself with fresh flowers all year round, so I figured out how to pamper myself with beautiful aromas and species, without real flowers. Today I will tell and show how to make a beautiful fragrant rose out of ordinary office paper, which outwardly will be very similar to my real girlfriend.

You should have at hand:
• Office colored paper.
• Wire.
• Corrugated paper in green.
• PVA glue.
• Pencil, scissors, ruler.
• An elongated bead or piece of plasticine.

should be at hand


In order for the petals of our rose to be the same, we need to make a pattern. It is done very simply. We do not need ideal proportions, it is important that we get a pattern with six petals. Draw a straight line, 10 cm long. Now visually divide the sides of the line into two more parts. A little less in one, a little more in the other - it does not matter. Then we connect the lines with an arch to make the petals. Cut out the drawn pattern.

draw the curve


According to our pattern, we need to draw so many blanks. How much will fit on sheet A4. I managed to accommodate 7 pieces.

cut blanks


Now take the wire and bead and thread the edge of the wire into the hole, bending the edge. If there is no bead, you can mold a plasticine cone. In all the blanks we make a hole in the center. We take the first workpiece and thread the wire into it.

We begin to collect our bud. Smear two opposite petals with glue and start gluing one per bead.

Start to collect the bud


So we collect the entire first blank. We also glue the second one, but when all the petals are glued, gently squeeze the crown of the bud.
The third blank is already glued in three petals. We coat the three opposite leaves with glue and, gluing them to the bud, slightly wrap the edges.

After you glue all six petals, you should get a beautiful, half-opened rosebud. If desired, you can stop at this stage. But, if you want a more magnificent rose, then we will continue to glue the blanks.

To make the rose magnificent and the petals naturally twisted, we take a piece of wire or a knitting needle and twist the edges of the petals from two sides, at an angle.

A blank with twisted petals, like the previous one, is glued with three petals.

We process the next workpiece in the same way as the previous one - we twist the petals. However, now we are adding another action. Something round, I have an iron ball, we crush each petal from the center to the edge. From this, the petals will begin to round up and wrap themselves in a bud. I tried the same thing with a varnish cap, the same beautiful petals are obtained.

The petals will have to be wrapped in a button folded clockwise. To prevent it from disintegrating, glue the joints together.

wrap up in a bud


We put on the last petals and wrap the wire with green corrugated paper.

Paper rose is just like real


It turned out such a beautiful tea rose. To achieve even greater naturalness, a couple drops of rose oil can be dripped into the center of the bud. Then the flower will get a pleasant aroma.
