00:39So I will start with any simple napkins.

00:43In this case, I'm using the few that I have found around the house.

00:48And you can take as many number of layers as you want.

00:53In my case, I'm choosing to use four napkins for this particular flower.

00:58So I stack them on top of each other.

01:01And then I'm going to four them like fan.

01:05♪

01:11So I'm going to take the pair of scissors.

01:14And I'm going to cut these both edges.

01:17♪

01:21Just to give them an even.

01:24And then I will hold this from the center.

01:27And then press it tightly.

01:30And then I'll take my wire.

01:34And I'll cut like a length of seven, eight inches.

01:39♪

01:44And then I'm going to tie a knot here.

01:50In the middle.

01:53So now we have this fan.

01:56And it's going to look like this.

01:58So these two edges will make our petals.

02:02So I will do...

02:05I'll just cut them like...

02:07♪

02:13So now we have something like this.

02:18So it will start to look like flower.

02:21♪

02:28And at this point, I'll start ruffling this out.

02:33♪

02:38And by this step, you can decide if you want to go a step further.

02:42In that case, I will try to make a center for this particular flower.

02:47♪

02:50For that, I would need the glue and these mustard seeds.

02:56♪

02:59So I'm making a dab of glue in the center.

03:04You can make it round, any shape that you please.

03:09And I'm going to take these mustard seeds and then just sprinkle on top.

03:14♪

03:19♪

03:24♪

03:29♪

03:32I get a lot of package materials.

03:35And I just feel bad because I don't want to throw it away

03:39because there's nothing wrong with that paper.

03:41And then forge these into these branches.

03:43And hopefully, maybe at some point, it will be like a pergola

03:46with vines taking over and stuff.
