Artificial flowers can be a wonderful interior decoration, especially if they are made by hand. Spend your free time with your children for interesting crafts and make your home brighter!
This craft can become not only a banal entertainment at the weekend, but also a good gift from a child to a mother (other female relatives) on March 8 or another holiday.
- red (or pink, yellow, orange, lilac) and green paper;
- wooden stick;
- green threads;
- glue (for example, PVA or stationery).
Make a template for your flower out of thin cardboard or printer paper. Newsprint will also work. To create a template, simply sketch the top diagram from the photo. Accuracy is optional. The size can also be arbitrary and depends only on your desire.
To create a flower from a template, cut out 4 blanks from colored paper. Fold each piece along the vertical axis of symmetry and glue them in pairs.
Cut out two sheets of green paper. The length of the castings should be approximately twice the height of the color.
Wrap a wooden stick with green threads, securing them as you wind them with glue. If you don't have green thread on hand, simply paint the stick with green paint (like watercolor).
On the top of the stick, glue the two halves of the flower. After that, attach the leaves to the glue, wrapping their bottom part around the bottom of the stick.
A colored paper tulip is ready. Make several flowers in different colors and place them in a vase or small decorative planter.
