How to Make Flowers from Napkins: An Easy and Fun Way to Decorate
Introduction
Hello! In this tutorial, we will show you how to make beautiful and original flowers from napkins, perfect for decorating children’s parties, birthdays, or just for home decor. These flowers are easy to make and can be created with minimal materials.
Necessary Materials
- One napkin (preferably three-ply)
- Ribbons or bows
- Scissors
- Hot glue gun and glue sticks
Steps to Make the Flowers
Step 1: Preparing and Folding the Napkin
Take one three-ply napkin and unfold it once so that it remains folded in half.
Fold the napkin like an accordion, starting from the short side of one end to the other.
Step 2: Securing the Middle
Once you have folded the napkin, secure it in the middle.
For this, you can use a rubber band, wire, or satin ribbon. The ribbon is a good choice because it will add extra aesthetics to the flower.
Unfold the two halves of the resulting fold to create a circular shape.
Step 3: Separating the Layers
Slowly start to separate the layers of one half of the napkin by gently pulling them upwards.
Do the same with the other half, but first, cut the outer edge of the napkin at the fold.
Once you have separated all the layers, the flower will look almost ready; you can shape it with your hands until you like the result.
Step 4: Adding a Ribbon
Cut a piece of ribbon and tie it into a bow. You can make two bows of different sizes, materials, and patterns.
Glue the bows together in the middle with hot glue.
Finally, glue the flower onto the bows, and your arrangement is complete!
