Step-by-step instructions with photos

Let's start making daffodils from crepe paper.

Step 1: Print the Template

Print the template onto thick A4 paper or cardboard and cut out the pieces.

Step 2: Cut out the middle

  • Take a template for the center and orange crepe paper. Fold the orange crepe in half and attach the template to it. Cut the blank according to the template. Cut the upper part of the center with scissors in a zigzag pattern.
  • Unfold the workpiece. Glue it into a cylinder shape. When the glue dries, shape the center into a tube.
  • Using your thumb and forefinger, stretch the top of the tube in different directions, giving it a wave shape.

Step 3: Cut out the petals

  • Next, cut out the petals. To do this, take a piece of yellow crepe paper along the length of the petal from the template and fold it like an accordion 5 times. Attach the template to the folded crepe and cut out 6 neat petals. Make sure the direction of the crepe strips follows the pattern.
  • Using scissors, bend the petals down slightly, giving them an arc shape.
  • Use your thumb and forefinger to slightly stretch the middle of the petals to the sides. This will give them a more natural look.
  • Using your fingers, curl the edges of the petals to the sides, giving them a slight waviness.

Step 4: Make the Leaves

  • Cut a 20 cm long piece from the roll of green crepe along its entire width. Fold it in half along its width. Cut 2 neat sheets ¾ of the way across a piece of paper.
  • Stretch the leaves slightly, giving them a more realistic look.

From a roll of green crepe paper, cut long strips 1-2 cm wide. You will need them later to wrap the flower and fix the details on it.

Step 5: Collect the flower

  • Insert the stamens into the orange cylinder. Squeeze the lower part of the cylinder into a bun.
  • On the other side, insert the floral wire into the cylinder. Wrap and secure the cylinder, stamens and floral wire together with thin wire.
  • Insert your index finger into the workpiece and straighten the inner part of the center, giving it a rounded shape.

Step 7: Glue the Petals

Next you need to glue the petals. To do this, place a bead of hot glue on the bottom of each petal and glue them around the center. First, glue 3 petals evenly around the center, and then add the remaining petals.

Narrow sheet, patterned outfit
aroma of subtle whim
In spring the garden will fill again
fragile elegance NARCISSUS


Narcissus blooms in March-April, earlier than many other plants, and has a strong and pungent odor. A large bouquet of these flowers causes a headache. No wonder the name of the flower comes from the Greek word “narkao”, that is, “intoxicating”.
The narcissus is one of the most popular flowers in the world, and the most popular ornamental flower in Germany. "Narcissus" is the name of a genus that includes dozens of bulbous plants. Because they are so easy to grow from bulbs, these flowers are extremely popular with gardeners.
In China, the daffodil is called “watery and immortal” and acts as a symbol of the New Year and happiness.
The Persian king Cyrus called the narcissus “a creature of beauty, an immortal delight.” The ancient Romans greeted the victors of battles with yellow daffodils and wove flower wreaths for feasts. Mohammed himself said about him: “Whoever has two loaves of bread, let him sell one to buy a narcissus flower, for bread is food for the body, and narcissus is food for the soul.”
He was also admired by Shakespeare, who charmingly described him in his tragedy “The Tempest,” and by Edgar Allan Poe, who described him as one of the flowers of that “valley of multi-colored grass,” where he was able to experience heavenly love.


Riddles about the narcissist.
He is the flower prince-poet,
He is wearing a yellow hat.

(narcissus).

My flower is like a saucer
In the middle there is a cup,
So that I can drink dew
Every little bug.
(narcissus)

Equipment:
- colored paper;
- yellow paper napkin;
- scissors;
- a simple pencil;
- PVA glue;
- plastic knitting needle (for adults).

Safety precautions when working with PVA glue.
1. Work carefully, trying not to drip glue.
2. Try not to get the glue on your clothes, face, or especially your eyes.
3. If glue gets into your eyes, rinse them well with water.
4. After work, close the glue tightly and put it away.
5. Wash your hands after work.
Safety precautions when working with scissors.
1. For work, use medium-sized scissors with blunt, rounded ends.
2. When working, carefully monitor the cutting direction.
3. Do not hold the scissors with the blade facing up.
4. Do not leave scissors with open blades.
5. Scissors should be placed on the right with closed blades directed away from you.
6. Do not approach your friend while working.
7. Pass the closed scissors rings forward.
8. While working, hold the material with your left hand so that your fingers are away from the blade.

Stages of work execution.
The process of making a flower is simple and quite accessible for making by preschool children of the declared category. The materials used for the work are the simplest and most common.
To begin, let's use the petal template diagram. You will need templates for three petals of different sizes and the middle of the flower. All sizes and quantities are indicated in the diagram.


Using templates, we begin to cut out the petals: 8 petals from pale yellow paper (length 6cm); 4 wide petals made of bright yellow paper (length 4 cm) and 4 thin petals made of bright yellow paper (length 4 cm) and a rectangle of soft yellow paper (length 8 cm, width 3 cm).



On four soft yellow petals and four wide bright yellow petals at the bottom, we make cuts about 1.5 cm long and glue the corners of the cuts to obtain a curved petal.


Let's start collecting our flower. First, glue the large petals together without cuts.


We bend the edges of the petals slightly.


We glue voluminous petals of a soft yellow color on top.



We glue voluminous bright yellow petals on top of them.



Between such collected petals we glue thin bright yellow petals.


Glue the rectangle into a tube.


We cut along one edge. We make cuts about a little less than a centimeter.


We bend all the cuts inward. The result is a glass like this. This will be our middle daffodil.


Glue the middle to the center of the flower, fix it well.



Cut a strip about 3cm wide from a paper napkin. twist it into a tube and insert it into the middle. First coat the middle with glue.


We cut the protruding part of the napkin with grass and lightly fluff it. Our flower is ready.



Now we make the stem. We wind green paper onto a knitting needle and make a paper tube. The teacher can pre-do this work by offering the children ready-made flower stems.



We cut out the leaves thin and long.

It becomes a little sad when beautiful flowers fade. This is an unchangeable fact, because these living creatures are short-lived. That’s why it’s so nice to look at artificial flowers, because they will never change, they will never cease to please the eye. In this master class we will show how you can make a daffodil from the most ordinary corrugated paper without much effort with your own hands.

We are studying a master class: do-it-yourself daffodil from corrugated paper

Before you start working, it is advisable to prepare in advance the materials needed to create a flower. They can be purchased at any store in the stationery department.

Necessary materials:
  • white and yellow corrugated (creped) paper to create a daffodil bud;
  • green corrugated (creped) paper;
  • threads or very thin wire;
  • a piece of wire to create a daffodil peduncle;
  • scissors;
  • glue stick.

The necessary materials have been prepared, you can start creating a daffodil with your own hands.

Instructions:

1) Take the stem in your hands and wrap it with green crepe tape.

2) Now we begin to make the stamens. Take yellow crepe paper, bend it in half and fold it 3-4 times. Then, we make cuts along the entire length of the workpiece.

3) Lay out the ribbon and begin to twist the ribbons into threads. It is enough to make 1 piece, and the rest of the shelf can be cut off.

4) Now we take the stem, distribute glue 2-3 cm from its end and wind the resulting ribbon with threads onto the tip of the stem.

5) Thus, the inner part of the flower is obtained.

6) Now let's start creating the daffodil bowl. From yellow crepe paper, cut out a strip 10 cm long and 2 cm wide. Lay it out in front of you so that a depression is formed in the middle. After this, we begin to wind the resulting ribbon onto the inside of the flower.

7) At the same time, you must not forget to make large folds so that the flower turns out voluminous.

8) After completing the flower, you need to wrap its lower part with thread. After this, open the folds a little and press down the base of the flower a little at the base. This way he will be even more expressive.

9) Now let's move on to the petals. Take white paper and cut out a ribbon 2 cm wide. Draw the outline of a petal on it with a bright pencil and cut it out. For one bud you will need 6 petals.

10) Give the cut out petals a slightly convex shape, like real tulips.

11) Place the first petal at the base of the bud and secure it with thread. Then we attach two more petals so that all three do not overlap each other, and we also fasten them. This is how the first tier of petals turned out.

12) We make the second and third tiers in the same way as the first.

13) Secure them from below with thread and then with green crepe tape.

14) Stepping back a centimeter from the base, we make a “peduncle knee”.

15) Now take white paper and cut out a petal from it.

16) We twist the resulting petal with our fingers, then straighten it and attach it to the stem using glue. We decorate its lower part with green ribbon.

17) Bend the daffodil petals outward, straightening them.

18) From green paper, cut out three sheets of flat and narrow shape and glue them to the bottom of the stem.

That's it, the corrugated paper daffodil is ready! Now you can make a whole bouquet of flowers in the same way and display it in the room. This way you can demonstrate your enviable needlework skills to all guests, as well as add more warmth and comfort to the atmosphere in the room.

Let's learn a step-by-step lesson: crepe paper daffodil with candies

A little surprise made from candies will help add originality to an ordinary homemade flower. For this, it is a good idea to make a daffodil from crepe paper with candy in the center.

Before starting work, you need to buy the materials necessary for color consciousness. They can be purchased at any specialty store or stationery department.

Necessary materials:
  • corrugated paper in green, white and yellow;
  • candies;
  • wooden skewers;
  • hot glue;
  • scissors;
  • tape;
  • scotch.

The necessary things to create a flower with a surprise are ready, you can get to work.

Instructions:

1) Take the yellow color and cut out blanks for the core from it, while twisting the end of each element.

2) Then we take white paper in our hands and cut out the petals. After this, we give each of them a natural shape, stretching them a little.

3) From green paper we make leaves for the flower.

4) Now we take wooden skewers in our hands and attach the candies with glue.

5) Then we take a stick with candy and fix the blanks for the core with hot glue, and then glue 6 white petals in a circle.

6) The last step is to wrap the skewers with green temp tape and attach the flower buds to the stems.

That's it, a wonderful bouquet of daffodils with sweets is ready! Such a product will not only decorate any home, but will also become an original gift for loved ones.

Video materials on the topic of the article

To get more inspiration and ideas for creating homemade bouquets, we recommend watching a selection of videos on creating flowers with your own hands.

Every caring mother wants to develop her child not only physically and mentally, but also creatively. This requires desire and imagination. But imagination sometimes “dozes” and you have to look for ideas in different sources. In this article we will tell you about one of the opportunities to spend time usefully, namely, we will teach you how to make a daffodil from paper.

A paper daffodil consists of one crown, six perianth leaves, a stem and leaves. Corrugated paper is most often used in such crafts, such as in ours and. Thanks to its properties, it stretches well, is quite dense, and can be given any shape. A variety of color shades make crepe paper indispensable for decorating rooms and arranging bouquets.

For paper crafts we will need:

  • two sheets of corrugated paper. 9 As you know, the narcissus has a yellow flower and white leaves, so we will use paper of these colors. But if your child likes other colors, then why not arrange a rainbow of colors and make them non-standard - pink and blue, for example?;
  • felt-tip pen;
  • scissors;
  • universal transparent glue (or transparent super glue);
  • green cocktail straws (not wide).

Let's give step by step instructions to making paper daffodils with your own hands:

  1. Take a piece of corrugated paper. Cut out two rectangles from it. The first is 3.5 cm by 7 cm in size, the second rectangle is 3 by 9 cm in size. These will be the petals of the narcissus. Did you know that narcissus petals are actually called petal-shaped tepals?
  2. Take a strip of shorter length, a felt-tip pen (or an object similar in circumference to a felt-tip pen: a pen, a pencil). Wrap the top of the felt-tip pen with a strip so that about 1-1.5 cm of the strip remains free along the length.
  3. Let's begin to twist the free edge of the corrugated strip, making a kind of “tail”.
  4. At this stage, it is important to hold the edge of the strip at the same time to avoid unwinding of the paper.
  5. Carefully remove the felt-tip pen from the prepared roll. This is the core of the flower. If you wish, you can make it a little simpler: cut out a rectangle, twist the edge outward and roll it into a wide tube. This method will allow you to reduce time.
  6. Now it’s the turn of the second prepared rectangle of corrugated paper, the longer one (3*9 cm).
  7. Fold the leaf in half, then one third, and fold it again into one third. It turns out to be a small rectangle folded six times.
  8. We cut the edge of the leaf along the contour, giving it the shape of a petal.
  9. We straighten the petals wide, it looks like a crown. If you want variety, the petals can simply be cut out of white corrugated paper.
  10. We take the previously made roll, removed from the felt-tip pen, and wrap the prepared petals around it. We twist the base of the crepe paper daffodil into a ponytail.
  11. We straighten the petals.
  12. For the flower fringe, we take scissors and cut the top of our crown, making small notches with a small gap between them.
  13. We straighten each notch, bending it outward of the flower.
  14. We cut the cocktail straw to length depending on how large the flower is. It is better not to use wide tubes; they look very bulky with the crown of a small flower.
  15. Apply transparent glue to the tail of the flower and insert it inside the straw.
  16. From the remaining straw scraps we make daffodil leaves. Cut a piece of straw in half along its length. If desired, leaves can be cut out of green corrugated paper.
  17. We give the cut straw a leaf shape by trimming its edges.
  18. Glue the leaf to the stem.
  19. If desired, we make several daffodils from corrugated paper to give the composition volume and place them in a vase. Since daffodils are laconic flowers that do not require additional decor, the vase itself and additional attributes are not of fundamental importance.

Dare, get creative, try making other flowers from corrugated paper! Or maybe your child would like to make a bouquet of candy flowers? Then secure the candies on wooden sticks. And then make a flower around it, as described earlier.

Daffodils, like tulips, are the most famous primroses that delight with their flowering in early spring. They are often used by florists to create sunny spring bouquets. They are combined with many types of plants, so it will not be difficult to assemble a composition or bouquet from daffodils. Today we invite you to create these cute flowers with your own hands. Corrugated paper is perfect for creating daffodils; it will realistically convey the shape and texture of all the details of the flower.

So, to make a daffodil with your own hands, you need some materials:

  • corrugated paper in white, green and yellow;
  • green tape;
  • scissors;
  • gouache, watercolor or acrylic paints;
  • brush;
  • wire;
  • heat gun and glue;
  • ruler;
  • a piece of bright yellow crepe or crepe paper.

Craft stages

Step 1. Let's start by creating the internal parts of the flower - the stamens. We cut a strip 6 cm long and 5 cm wide from light yellow corrugation. Cut it into thin pieces.

We twist them with our fingers, and then wrap pieces of bright yellow crepe paper around the ends. The stamens and anthers are ready.

For one flower, 5-6 stamens will be enough.

Step 2. Next we create the narcissus crown. To do this, you will need paper of the same shade as for the stamens - light yellow. We cut out three strips measuring 5*15 cm from it. We cut out a wavy outline along the edge, and then stretch it until beautiful folds form. We paint the edges of the blanks with yellow and orange watercolors or gouache.

Step 3. Prepare three pieces of wire. Glue the finished stamens to the ends of the wire. Then we attach the crown blanks. After gluing, we give the crowns a realistic three-dimensional shape.

Step 4. Now we need to cut out oblong teardrop-shaped petals from white paper. We attach 5-6 petals to one flower.

Step 5. Tape the stems with floral tape.

Step 6. We cut out ribbon-shaped daffodil leaves from dark green corrugation. We stretch them a little and twist them for a more realistic look.
