ROSES FROM THE PAPER EGG TRAY

Send

Creative individuals will find the application of any thing and even from the most unnecessary material can make a craft. Here, for example, is the most unsightly paper tray for eggs. Why is it needed? They brought the product home, laid the eggs in the refrigerator, and sent the paper box to the bin. But the craftswomen act completely differently. They turn garbage into an original idea. Today you will learn how to make beautiful roses from ordinary paper trays from eggs.
Prepare such simple materials for work:
- scissors;
- PVA glue;
- one red napkin;
- paper packaging for transporting eggs.

First, let's take a look at the egg tray. It is made of compressed cardboard. Often there is just a white (grayish) shade. But some manufacturers are now adding dyes. In the photo you see a white tray and purple. If you want to receive red flowers, then this is not a problem, since the material is easy to paint with ordinary gouache or even watercolor of any color.
To work, you need to cut the tray into three types of blanks:
- the smallest are the upper protruding hills;
- medium - those in which the eggs are located;
- the largest are depressions with the edges of hills.

For one rose, three blanks of different sizes will be required. It is necessary to cut three petals on each of them, as shown in the photo. To do this, use very sharp scissors to make the edges even. And low-quality scissors will tear paper.

Glue the middle workpiece in the middle of the largest. Try so that the petals do not match, but are spaced.

And place the small one in the middle center. It turns out a three-tiered flower, similar to an opened rose bud.

From a white tray, you need to form 6 beautiful roses in exactly the same way.

Original flowers turn out.

To revive them a little, take a red paper napkin and twist small balls out of it. Glue them in the center of each flower. It will turn out even more interesting.

With these colors you can glue a photo frame, a mirror in the hallway, or simply form bouquets of various configurations and stick them on a piece of chipboard.
