Main material: Apricot paper vine, green paper vine, brown retractable paper, double-sided tape, white latex, green plant tape, thick and thin wire, roll paper, Tools required: Scissors, ruler, vise, black watercolor pen, small pen, Production steps:

Step 1: Cut the brown stretch paper into 8 strips of 1.5cm×30cm, 4 strips of 2cm×30cm, and put 0.5cm wide double-sided tape on one side of each strip. Cut the other side into thin strips about 1mm wide.

Step 2: Take a piece of iron wire of moderate length and fold it in half, clamp one end of the cut 1.5cm wide paper strip at the folded part of the iron wire, and wrap 8 1.5cm paper strips around the iron wire one by one.

Step 3: Wrap four 2cm wide paper strips tightly around the flower disk to form the middle flower disk of the sunflower (about 4.5cm in diameter) Tips: You can use a black watercolor pen or whiteboard pen to blacken the middle flower plate, and the effect will be more realistic.

Step 4: Cut the apricot paper vine into 9 rectangular pieces of 5cm × 10.5cm. Paste 0.5cm wide double-sided tape on the longer side of each piece. Divide the rectangular paper vine into five equal pieces. Cut as shownIn the petal shape shown, five petals are wrinkled together and then unfolded.

Step 5: Paste the processed petals on the flower plate, covering a layer of about 14 petals (the size and number of petals can be adjusted appropriately according to the size of the flower plate).

Step 6: Use the same method to continue pasting the second layer of petals outside the first layer of petals. Pay attention to the fact that the petals are evenly spaced step by step and staggered with the first layer of petals.

Step 7: Attach the third layer of petals to the outside of the second layer of petals, making sure the petals are evenly spaced and staggered with the second layer of petals. Tips: 1. When pasting, make sure the petals are evenly distributed. If the petals cannot be evenly distributed, you can cut a strip of five petals and paste them again. 2. The second and third layers of petals must be staggered with the previous layer of petals. 3. After the petals are pasted, you can trim the outer edge of the bottom of the flower plate.

Step 8: Cut the green paper vine into 6 rectangular pieces of 4cm×10.5cm. Paste 0.5cm double-sided tape on the longer side of each piece. Cut each paper vine into six equal parts. The torus shape is as shown in the picture. Twist the torus together and wrinkle it before unfolding it.

Step 9: Attach the cut receptacles to the outside of the third layer of petals. Pay attention to the steps and apply them evenly, so that there are about 16 receptacles in one layer.

Step 10: Attach the second layer of receptacles to the outside of the first layer of receptacles, making sure they are evenly distributed and staggered with the first layer of receptacles. Tips: When pasting the receptacles, you should also pay attention to even distribution and staggering with the previous layer. If this is not possible, you can cut the receptacles and then paste them.

Step 11: Cut a 10.5cm×10.5cm square green paper vine, trim it into a circle with a diameter of 10.5cm, fold it in half twice and then divide it into thirds.

Step 12: Cut off a little bit of the sharp corners of the folded paper vine, trim the arc at the other end to create a torus shape as shown in the picture, unfold and wrinkle it.

Step 13: Apply white latex to the middle of the third layer of receptacle and stick it to the bottom of the flower plate.

Step 14: Cut the green paper vine into a 3.5cm×9cm rectangle (double layer), stick double-sided tape in the middle, stick the wire, and use white latex to stick the two layers together.
