How to make

Step 1

Make a double sided strip of tape that is 3 in. long.

Step 3

Fold the piece from step 2 into 4 sections.

Step 4

With your craft knife, cut a slit at the bottom of the fold so it cuts through all 4 of your folds. The black lines show where the slits should be.

Step 5

Tie a knot at one end of your string that is big enough to not poke through the slits you made in step 4.

Run your string through the 4 slits.

Step 7

Pull your string so the knot is on the left side of your first petal.

Once all of your petals are attached, pull the end of your string tightly.

Step 10

While pulling your petals tightly together, cut the excess string so there is only a tiny piece of string left.
