Flowers made of paper: origami tulip

Flowers origami - a special section in needlework. Tender and light, serving as an ornament for greeting cards and used as an independent element in the decor of the room, large and small, of different colors and structures - they are not just pleasing to the eye, they delight! It's amazing that one and the same flower can be performed with different origami techniques and get a completely different sound of the main theme. I will say more: it brings incomparable pleasure and the process of creating origami from paper. A lotus flower, for example, will require dexterity masters and some skills in creating origami, but the result is simply amazing - and who will refuse such a miracle in his home, especially since the lotus symbolizes harmony, balance where it is. It can take a couple of days to create it, but any Origami master will tell you that he did not spend it at work, but enjoying the creation of the beautiful with his own hands.

The most widespread in our country is the technique of modular origami. Its basis is a triangular module, in other words, a workpiece, folded in a special way from paper. The module is designed in such a way that it can be connected to similar modules. Get pretty strong and beautiful figures that can be used both as decorations and as toys. Particularly attractive is the fact that the workpiece from the modules can be assembled without the help of glue - only individual elements are attached to the main frame. Magnificent looking vases made with the help of this technique, well, to put in them, of course, you only need paper flowers.

Flowers origami are good absolutely everything, but personally I admire the beauty of the first truly spring flowers - tulips. Delicate and strong at the same time, on a sturdy stem, they come in such different shades, shapes! The garden of tulips is considered one of the most beautiful places in the world. And how nice to create this splendor of paper - then you can recall the wonderful time of the year even in the coldest winter!

Strictly speaking, we created the origami tulip in childhood, even without knowing the name of this craft. Do you remember how to glue the petals with the stalk, diligently bending each with a pencil? Actually, this is one of the ways to implement the idea of creating an artificial spring bouquet. The second way is the origami tulip, assembled in the form of a "box", which must then be inflated. Then the flower is simply "planted" on the stem. This is also a familiar way of making a flower. The most difficult thing in this case is to inflate the tulip so that its petals are not damaged. But if this technique can be mastered at school age, then why not try again at the age of a mature?

Well, for those who like something more complicated and more thorough - a modular version of the "origami tulip". To understand how to make an origami tulip from the modules you can by looking at the detailed instructions on the website of the masters. One flower will require about one hundred modules. It is advisable to make them a minimum size of -1/32 of the album sheet for the preparation of the module is best suited. If you take large pieces of paper, the product will turn out to be excessively cumbersome. When all the blanks are ready, you can start folding the flower itself, strictly following the recommendations of experts conducting a master class. Of course, one flower to create a bouquet is not enough, so be ready to repeat the procedure of "twisting" the modules and connecting them at least two more times. Leaflets are prepared from solid sheets of green paper, folded in a certain way also in the origami technique. The stem can be glued from cardboard or use a tube for cocktails, wrapping it with a green thread or pasting a thin strip of green paper along a spiral. Well, that's all - the origami tulip is ready!
