Hello community friends, how are you today?
May you all always be healthy and happy.
Today I will share simple creativity using paper. This time I will make flowers to place on the table to make it look more beautiful. It's easy to make, doesn't use a lot of ingredients, and the ingredients are also easy to find.
The theme of the paper flowers that I made this time was like lush flowering grass, for some reason I like making these flowers, I have also taught my students to make these flowers. We make them in groups. Some children cut out grass shapes, some children cut out flowers, some attached flowers to leaves. Because it's easy, I can teach it to my students. But this time I didn't do it with my students, I made it myself this time.
Ok...let's start making the grass flowers. First, I prepare the equipment that I use:
- scissors
- paper glue
- Used mineral water bottles
- duct tape
- color paper
- knife
So now let's start making it:
First step:
- Cut the used bottle, take the top using a sharp knife. So, let's just take the top part.
Second step:
- Cut out green paper in a straight shape from the top but don't cut it off, leaving approximately 3 cm at the bottom. Then cut the top of the paper that we cut straight into a sharp shape, so that it becomes a leaf shape. The amount of paper is up to you, if you want the grass to be thicker then you need more paper. If I use 4 green paper.
Third step:
- After you have finished cutting and forming the green paper leaves, then wrap the paper around the used bottle that we cut earlier using duct tape or a double tip. Wrap the paper that we will make into a leaf shape until it covers the surface of the bottle. So, when you are finished, now curve the leaf-shaped paper one by one, so that the shape becomes slightly curved downwards, as beautiful a shape as possible.
Fourth step:
- Next, form a flower pattern on the pink paper then cut it out, make as many as possible, depending on the quantity. Then stick the flower-shaped paper on each leaf. To attach the flower shape, it can be at the end of the leaf, in the middle, just arrange it as beautifully as possible.
Fifth step:
- After finishing gluing the flowers, now we make the leaves curly, by taking a stick then folding the paper in half to cover the stick and twisting the leaves until they become curly. Do it one by one until finished. We can also combine, some leaves are curly, some are still straight, according to our taste.
and...Tarrraaa the grass flowers are ready, now put them in a flower vase then put them on the table.
How about it, make it easy to make?... Grass flowers are simple but can make our table beautiful
I once heard a life philosophy of someone who said live like grass, even if it is stepped on, uprooted, poisoned, it can still grow again, which is the meaning of that philosophy, even though we have problems, are insulted, sick, not appreciated, but still survive, never give up and keep going. eager to live. Be a strong and confident person, no matter what people think of you.
This is my creativity today, I hope you like it, and you can give me input so that my creativity can be even better.
May we all always be healthy and happy, thank you.
