- - green satin ribbon - 50 cm
- - coffee beans
- - green and brown gouache

Instructions
Step 1
Prepare all the necessary tools for needlework. Cut the yellow ribbon with scissors into 10 cm pieces (the width of the ribbon should be five centimeters). Now carefully cut two corners of each rectangle to make triangles. Next, carefully form sharp little petals, fix each petal with glue so that it does not disintegrate. Thus, you need to make 15 petals.
Step 2
The next step is stitching the petals just made. Place one petal on top of the other and sew their lower parts together. Repeat this procedure with all the petals. As a result, you should have a round shape.
Step 3
Now cut a circle out of the cardboard, the diameter of which is slightly larger than the empty round space between the petals. Glue these blanks to each other carefully.
Step 4
Next, you need to put napkins in several layers in the middle of the craft, on cardboard, coat them with PVA glue, and form a bulge. Let the glue dry and then paint the center with brown gouache.
Step 5
As soon as the gouache is dry, glue the entire core of the flower with coffee beans. They can be pasted both chaotically and in a certain order.
Step 6
The next step is making the stem. Cut off three pieces of wire 25-30 centimeters long with wire cutters, twist them together in random order, on one side bend the ends of the wire so that they do not stick out, and on the other hand, bend the ends (five centimeters) in different directions. Using napkins and PVA glue, glue the entire stem, choose the thickness of the stem yourself. Let the workpiece dry, then paint it with green gouache.
Step 7
Take a green ribbon, cut it into 10 cm pieces (you should get five pieces), then cut off two corners on each blank, form the sheets. Glue all the leaves under the flower, forming sepals.
Step 8
The last stage is the fastening of the stem to the flower. For the parts to hold well, it is best to use good glue. Disguise the bottom of the flower with either glue-smeared napkins or green ribbons.
