Materials: colored paper, scissors, glue, pencil, eraser.
1, draw the basic shape
Choose a piece of colored paper and put it on a flat surface. Draw the basic shape of Gesanghua with a pencil. This step is the basis of the following steps. Please make sure that the shape is correct. You can refer to the pictures or patterns of Gesang flowers to help you draw better.
Step 2 cut the petals
Carefully cut the petals along the pencil line with scissors. This step requires patience to ensure that the edge of each petal is smooth. In order to make the petals more realistic, you can bend the paper slightly outward when cutting.
3, making a petal hierarchy
Gently bending each petal can create the layering of Gesanghua. This step requires gentle technology to avoid damaging the paper. The angle and curvature of petals can be adjusted according to the natural shape of Gesang flower to make it look more realistic.
Step 4 assemble flowers
Glue the petals together piece by piece. First, fix the petals in the center and spread them out gradually until they are assembled into a whole flower. In the process of assembly, pay attention to adjust the position and angle of petals to make them conform to the structural characteristics of Gesanghua.
Step 5 adjust the details
After assembly, check the details of the flower and make necessary adjustments. You can bend or flip some petals gently to change the overall effect of the flower and make it more vivid and realistic. You can add extra decorations or details, such as drawing a texture on the petals with a pencil, or making different petal parts with different colors of paper.
Step 6 finish the job
After the above steps, a beautiful Gesanghua origami work is completed. You can put it on your desk or give it to your friends as a gift. If you want to save origami works, you can choose to fix them with a photo frame or a card holder for long-term preservation and display.
