How to decorate a gift for March 8th: paper napkin flowers

Do you love flowers 💐? Then a gift for March 8th decorated with delicate roses or lush carnations will definitely be to your liking. You can easily make paper napkin flowers in just 10 minutes. This will also help you come up with a craft for school or kindergarten for a favorite teacher or for an exhibition.

## Option 1. CARNATIONS

For this, you will need thick three-ply napkins without a pattern. The color is up to you. Fold 3 NAPKINS in half and stack them on top of each other. Now you need to fold them accordion-style.

Tie the resulting piece in the center with thread and glue the end. Trim the edges; you can use decorative scissors for this.

Unfold the bud and fluff it out with your fingers.

The finished flowers can be "planted" on stems made from floral wire or drinking straws. Option 2. BLOOMING ROSES**

Use regular thin paper napkins. Fold each one into quarters, stack them, and staple them in the center.

Cut out a circle; if it's a little uneven, it won't spoil the flower.

Next, lift the petals layer by layer and gently crumple them with your fingers.

Finally, the rose needs to be shaken a little and fluffed out. Such flowers can be glued onto a box or other paper gift packaging.

## Option 3. ROSE BUDS

These are also made from thin napkins. Unfold each one and fold over one edge by about 3 fingers' width. Smooth it down.

With the folded side facing up, roll the first napkin into a loose "roll," place it on the second napkin, and repeat the process.

Crumple and twist the bottom part of the tube, separating one corner—this will be the leaf.

The rose on a stem is ready. These flowers can be gathered into a bouquet and placed in a vase, or you can hide candies in the centers of the roses to make a sweet gift.
