Directions

- Fold the streamer lengthwise down the center, then fold once more to create a long, thin strip.
- Tightly roll the strip from one end to form the bud's core.
- Pleat the leftover streamer around the core, overlapping layers to build petals.
- Fasten the base tightly with floral wire, then cover the wire with green floral tape.
- Gently separate and curl the petals outward to achieve a rose shape.
