Flowers

We fold a simple napkin into an accordion with sides of 1 cm.It is better to mark these distances first, then the product will turn out to be more accurate.
When the entire napkin has turned into an accordion, you need to fold it in half to find the middle. Here, in the place of the fold, we tightly tie the accordion with a strong thread.
Cut the edges roundly with scissors.
Now we fluff up our accordion, and pour glue into the folds carefully for a corrugated circle and get a beautiful carnation.
It remains to collect carnations in bouquets.

Beautiful rose. Master Class

We cut the napkin into 4 parts. We fold one in half and fold it over a short part into a not tight tourniquet. On the one hand, we tie it tightly with a thread, this will be the core of the flower.
Cut the remaining 3 parts of the napkin diagonally. Their right angle is bent, and with the two remaining tips we grasp the core slightly and fasten them together with a thread. Determine the required number of petals yourself.
Rose stems can be made from thick wire, wrap it with thick cellulose of the desired color. During the assembly of the flower, you can also attach a sheet of paper to it..

Poppy

Fold the red napkin in four and cut out the petals in the manner of a snowflake. We unfold the napkin, the quatrefoil should come out of it.
