A simple version of a paper rose using the origami technique
You need colored double-sided A4 paper. You will also need scissors and glue.
Cut a strip 1 cm wide along the long side. Fold the corner.
Fold it again like this.
Once again you need to bend the corner.
Holding the end of the strip, make one turn.
This way.
Now you need to twist the rosette, making folds all the time, as in the beginning.
Continue in this manner until the end of the strip.
Glue the tip of the paper to the flower. Do the same with the leg by which the rose was held during the assembly process.
You will get this beauty:
Can finished product varnish or sprinkle with glitter.
You can also take the wire and wrap it in green paper. You will get a bouquet of roses like this.
This model is well suited for beginners and children.
A more complex rose for more experienced craftsmen
For this craft you need a square of paper, no more than 10x10 cm. The sheet is folded in half.
Then in half again.
The top side of the paper is flattened into a triangle.
Now the workpiece needs to be turned over. And on this side, fold the paper into a triangle, as before.
The right and left corners on one side are bent upward, into a rhombus.
These same corners are bent in half downwards and unbent back.
The small triangles that make up the rhombus need to be flattened, like this.
Bend the resulting pockets in half, down.
Do the same on the other side. It will turn out like this.
Bend the top corner down, making a fold and bend it back.
Open the lower part of the blank like a book.
Attention! Pull the areas shown in the picture and flatten. You should end up with two triangles in a square.
Turn the workpiece over.
Lift the triangle up by pulling it.
The lower right square must be folded diagonally, from top to bottom.
Turn the workpiece 180 degrees and bend the lower right square again.
Place the almost folded flower on your left hand. Grasp the walls of the workpiece with your right hand and twist clockwise. The result will be a rose. You can also help with your left hand. Wrap the corners around the pencil, twisting them slightly.
This is what the flower will look like:
It looks good on a scrapbooking card, gift wrapping or glass vase, where you can place several roses of different colors at once.
Model of modules according to diagrams with a description of work
This option is more complicated, but the flower looks very delicate and beautiful.
You need to prepare squares of colored paper, 8 or 15 pieces, depending on how many layers there will be in the rose, two or three. And also glue, because this is a modular assembly.
The square is folded in half, a fold is made and the sheet is unfolded back.
Turn the angle up like a diamond. Take the right corner and fold it inward, along the line of the fold made before.
Also bend the left corner.
Using a pencil, twist the corner a little. The petal module is ready.
The first row is made up of 3 petals. You need to apply a drop of glue to the left corner of one petal and the right corner of the other.
Like this:
Now the three glued petals need to be connected into a circle. Like this.
The first row is ready.
The second row consists of 5 petals. First glue at the top, then turn it over and glue at the bottom.

What is origami?
Origami is the ancient Japanese art of folding all kinds of paper figures without the help of scissors and glue. The technique has its roots in Ancient China, where paper was invented. For a long time this type of applied art was available only to the upper classes. It was considered good form to master the technique of folding paper figures.
Important! Paper cranes are believed to bring good luck and fulfillment of wishes.
Now origami is widespread all over the world, and it has the following features:
- It can be simple and modular (the figure is assembled from several, sometimes numerous parts).
- There are also different techniques for this art - wet folding, folding according to a pattern (a drawing with designated folds).
- Typically, a square sheet of paper is used to fold origami figures.
- To preserve the shape of a complex model for a long time, they came up with the idea of using paper impregnated with adhesive, that is, the origami technique is being improved every day.
- The most popular figures are those that are easy to create - tulip, frog, crane, fox, boat, heart. You can learn from them. There are many more complex models that will require more time, patience and skill.
Schemes for origami can be easily found on the Internet. We will focus on how to create a paper rose using the origami technique.
Important! Rose is one of the most beautiful and popular flowers. This is a symbol of beauty and femininity, although in different countries this flower has different meaning. It can be considered a symbol of wisdom, pride and even mystery.

How to make a rose from origami paper? Scheme for beginners
Using this pattern, you can make origami roses with your children, it’s not difficult.
Required material:
- If square sheets of paper are usually used for origami models, then in this case take a sheet of A4 colored paper. Color - your choice (red, pink, cream, yellow, burgundy or any other).
- Also prepare scissors and PVA glue (you can use stationery glue).
Procedure:
- We cut the sheet into strips 1 cm wide. We cut along the long side.
- Take a strip and bend the tip so that a corner comes out. Having retreated a little, we bend it again, then again.
- We take this curved tip and roll it into a tube with our fingers. This turned out to be the middle of the bud.
- To form the flower, we continue to bend the paper tape into the corners, and then twist it around the middle.
- The tip is discreetly fixed to the flower with glue. You have a small rose flower. This rose can be attached to a skewer to create a flower on a stem.
Important! If you want a larger size, you can cut the strips wider, but then in order for the strips to be long enough to form a beautiful bud, they need to be glued together.
- Wrap the skewer in green decorative tape or green paper.
Important! Several of these roses can be placed in a small vase. Origami rosebuds can be used to decorate panels, photo frames, gifts, and homemade cards. The rose itself can be decorated with various sparkles or sequins. Thus, it will look even more impressive.
For those who are interested in how to make a rose from origami paper for the first time, the pattern for beginners is quite suitable.
How to make a paper rose? More advanced origami
This scheme is a more complex process than the one described above. However, a flower made using this technique looks more natural and beautiful.
Required material:
- Colored double-sided paper, red or any other color.
- Scissors.
Procedure:
- Cut a square measuring 10x10 cm from a colored sheet of paper.
- Fold the sheet in half. Now cut in half again.
- Flatten the top into a triangle. Turn it over and fold the workpiece into a triangle on this side in the same way.
- Bend the right and left corners upward in the shape of a diamond.
- Bend these corners in half downwards and return to their original position.
- Lay out the small triangles that make up the rhombus into squares.
- Bend the resulting pockets in half downward. Turn the workpiece over and bend it on the other side in the same way. You will end up with a pentagon with a large angle at the top.
- On the resulting figure, bend the large corner down in half and return to its original position.
- Open the lower part of the figure like a book.
- Pull the inner part of the resulting “book” to the sides by the middle and flatten it. You will get a square with two triangles inside.
- Turn the workpiece over and pull the triangle up.
- Bend the lower right square diagonally from top to bottom.
- Rotate the workpiece 180 degrees, and similarly make bends at the lower right square.
- Place the resulting figure in your left palm, and with your right hand, grab the center and carefully turn clockwise until a rosebud is formed.
Important! The corners of the petals can be slightly curled using a pencil.
How to make a rose out of paper? Origami modular
We suggest trying another, medium-complexity scheme for creating a paper rose. But this is already an example of modular origami, when a figure is assembled from several elements.
Required materials:
- Double-sided colored paper.
- Scissors.
- Stationery glue.
Procedure:
- Prepare 8 squares from double-sided colored paper. As a result, you will get a rose from two layers.
Important! If you want a fuller bud, cut 15 squares, then the flower will consist of three layers.
- Take a square and bend it in half. Turn back.
- Turn the square clockwise to create a diamond shape. Bend the right corner along the fold line inward.
- Fold the left corner in the same way.
- Use a pencil to curl the corner a little. The base of the first petal is ready.
- Using the same pattern, make three petals from which the first row is assembled.
- Collect them. To do this, apply a drop of glue to the left corner of one petal and the right corner of the next. You should end up with three module petals glued together in a circle.
- For the second row, prepare 5 petals in the same way. Glue it together. First at the bottom, then turn it over and glue it at the top. We connect the petals in a circle again.
Important! If you have an origami rose of three tiers, and you have prepared 15 squares, make the third row of 7 petal modules in the same way, and glue them into a circle in the same way.
- Now insert the blanks one into the other to make a rosebud.
Important! For beauty, you can make tiers of petals from different shades - red, pink or any other paper. Decorate the rose with sparkles.
Rose Kawasaki
Origami master Toshikazu Kawasaki is known throughout the world. thanks to its very realistic models. Not everyone can replicate his masterpieces, even using ready-made designs. One of his most famous and beloved figures is the rose. She is so beautiful that she looks like the real thing. This origami model is called “Kawasaki Rose”.
It is quite difficult to repeat the creation of this rose, following only verbal instructions, so check each step with the illustrations, or even watch the video tutorial. There is not only a special technique for folding paper, but also all kinds of rotations of the workpiece.
Preparatory work:
- As always in classic origami, you will need a square of paper. For the rose, of course, take double-sided paper in red, pink, cream, or any other color of your choice.
- Unlike previous options, when making such a rose, you first need to make all the necessary folds on the paper on both sides, and then fold the flower according to the instructions.
- Some origamists use paper clips to fix kinks during work. So, just in case, stock up on them.
So, how to make a rose from origami paper using the technology of master Toshikazu Kawasaki?
Procedure:
- Take a square and fold it in half, then in half again, and again. We do the same on the other side. When you open your square, you will get 8 vertical and 8 horizontal stripes.
- Now fold it in half diagonally, and in half 3 more times. Likewise, on the other side. As a result, when turning, 16 diagonal stripes will appear in one and the other direction.
- Fold the corners along the second diagonal line. There will be 4 vertical stripes between the folds.
- Now we fold the workpiece along the diagonal bends, but leaving a square with a diagonal recess in the center.
- If everything is folded correctly, then this figure folds into a kind of hexagon with a slightly twisted center (which is a square folded diagonally).
- Place the long side up and bend the top right flap towards you along the fold line.
- We unfold the workpiece. An octagon should emerge, with a rhombus in its center, with an inflection extending from each corner. A bit like a propeller.
Important! To fix the center so that it is convenient to further collect the flower, you can strengthen this central diamond with a piece of tape.
- We turn the workpiece over and begin to bend all the corners one by one in one direction, according to the fold lines, giving the figure volume. At this stage of work, you can already notice the outlines of a rosebud.
- The most difficult part will be the design of the petals. To do this, bend one of the corners, unfold it, and then bend it inward. After folding, bend this part in the opposite direction along the fold lines of the small triangle.
- We repeat these steps similarly for the remaining rose petals.
- Next, we put the edges of the petals into the pocket of the adjacent petal.
- After all the manipulations, there is a hole left at the bottom of the flower. We remove it by gently pressing on the bud on the sides and bottom. As a result, you will receive a closed flower bud.
- To open it, use a pencil to squeeze out the core of the rose.
- Now we decorate the side petals, slightly bending the double, then the single part of the corner. We repeat the algorithm of actions with other petals.
If you acted strictly according to the scheme, checking the illustrations, then the result should be gorgeous rose Kawasaki, which will decorate any composition. It can be supplemented with a stem and petals.
Rose from napkins
For registration festive table You can twist several roses from paper napkins. This is not quite origami, but it also looks original.
Procedure:
- You need to take a pink table napkin and fold a 4 cm strip towards you.
- Now turn it over to the other side so that the folded strip is on the side.
- Next, pinch the edge of this strip between your index and middle fingers and begin to tightly wrap the napkin around them.
- Fold the corner of the napkin down.
- With your other hand, grab the middle of the bundle and begin to slowly pull it down, twisting it into a flagellum. Do not twist the very end - this corner needs to be bent upward so that a leaf on a twisted stem comes out.
- Now twist the stem tightly to the very bottom.
- All that remains is to fluff the rosebud and bend the corner a little to give it a more natural look.
