pretty flower

Aesthetic use…

1)Take a plastic bag and cut the handles and bottom off. Now you should have a plastic tube. 

2) Cut straight along one edge of the tube to make it into a sheet. 

3) Now cut your sheet into strips about 4cm thick (that’s about 1.5″ in old money). 

4) Take a strip and fold in one edge by about 2.5cm (1″). Keep folding it over and over so you end up with a flat roll of plastic. 

5) Now cut the roll as shown in the diagram below. 

6) Unfold the shape you cut out. You should now have a long strip of petal shapes! 

Repeat steps 4 to 6 with another one of the strips you made in step 3. this should give your enough petals to make a good sized flower. You can of course do more, or less, depending on how big you want your flowers to be.
