Crafting paper roses

in crafting •  8 years ago 

Recently I saw these amazing paper flower. And then we crafted them ourselves for some nice fotos and this is what they look like:

First you need a paper, we decided to take some pages of a non used book. You could also use a bloodred paper or a white paper aswell. Cut them into a round circle from the size of a grapefruit. After this you cut in this round paper a spiral. From outside to inside. The paper stripe has to be around 2-3 cm wide. Then we painted the edge with watercolour in the colour you like. I took red and purple. Let it dry. If you use coloured paper, you dont have to pain them. It was just funny to have them like that.

After this you can roll them from the outer side to the inner side. Keep the roll pretty closely together. When youcome to the end, you can just hold it in your hand and let it unroll softly. It will look like the ones on my picture. You can fix them with glue if you want.
