  Step 1

  1st you take a square piece of paper and fold in half. Unfold it, and then fold it in half the opposite direction. You should have to intersecting lines made from the folds.

• 

  Step 2

  Now this part is a little tricky to explain. You need to pinch in the sides using the indents from folding. The left and right side should fold, and the top and bottom will be the only 2 out of the 4 sides you will see.

• 

  Step 3

  It should look like this when you are done. (=

• 

  Step 4

  Now your going to fold the bottom corner up to the top corner. It doesn't matter which side you do first.

• 

  Step 5

  It shold look like this.

• 

  Step 6

  Repeat with opposite corner. The flip it to the otherside and repeat.

  Stay with me guys! haha

• 

  Step 7

  When your done folding all the sides you should have a diamond. Then you need to put the left and right sides together on each side. You should still have a diamond that looks like this same size and everything. Sorry I can't explain that better. If you need help just ask.

• 

  Step 8

  Now you need to fold all the sides in to the middle.

• 

  Step 9

  When your done it should look like this, on both the top and bottom sides.

• Step 10

  You need to tape where I have my fingers. After you have taped both sides, you need to blow into the hole at the bottom of your rose.

• 

  Step 11

  It should look like this now.

• 

  Step 12

  Now you take a pen or whatever is convienent and roll the petals down.

• 

  Step 13

  Now this is for the stem. You take a different piece of paper and roll it up. (try to keep it as small as you can.) After you've rolled it. Tape it up.

• 

  Step 14

  Now stick it in the hole you used to blow it up.

• 

  Step 15

  This is for the leaves. Just fan fold the paper all the way from one corner to the next.

• 

  Step 16

  Tape the part where my fingers are.

• 

  Step 17

  Wrap the leaves around the stem and tape in place. Tada! You have a rose. Now spray them with your fave perfume, and you got yourself an alomst forever rose! Hope you like.

What kind of paper did you use? I used regular printer paper and I think I did the folds right but when I blow inside nothing pops out

I hope you see this soon! :O Or if someone else understands, I hope to find some help. I'm trying to make this for mother's day [tomorrow], but I don't understand where the petals come from? I made the rose and had it puff, but can't find the petals! Ah! Please, help!

These are absolutely gorgeous, but...I was always under the impression that these origami flowers were tulips. Roses are rounder, I thought. Either way, great job. Beautiful craftmenship and I love the stems and leaves.
