To make a tulip flower or a whole bouquet in a modular origami technique you will be helped by schemes
Modular origami tulip flower –a wonderful gift for loved ones and an excellent interior decoration. Modular origami flowers allow many gardening enthusiasts to make their flower dreams come true at any time of the year. Colored sheets of paper combined with free time are an excellent basis for creativity. Treat yourself with a beautiful bouquet Everyone knows that in early spring, after daffodils, tulips delight the eye. Unfortunately, their flowering does not last long. Fortunately, their charming beauty can be embodied in three-dimensional paper figures. Assembling tulips is an origami of medium difficulty level. Beginners can easily master the manufacturing technology, and then proceed to the more complex technique of assembling various colors. In the meantime, let’s figure out what a modular origami tulip flower is. To make one flower, you need to prepare 105 basic modules. You will use a drinking straw for the stem and green paper to create the leaves. First, let's perform the simplest step in this assembly – Let's make a flower stem. To do this, take a strip of green paper no more than 1 cm wide. Glue is applied to the surface of this workpiece from the reverse side, and the strip is wrapped around a straw. See the diagram.Next, let's start making leaves.To do this, take a sheet of 15x15 paper, fold it along diagonal lines and unfold it back. The edges of the sheet bend towards its middle. Then fold the edges towards the center on the other side. Such manipulations must be done with all layers of the workpiece. To express the leaf veins, all folds are ironed well. The workpiece is turned over. By twisting the edge of the sheet onto the tip of a pencil, you can give this element a curved shape. See sheet manufacturing diagram.We completed the simple stage. Now let's move on to a more important task – assembling a tulip bud. Its assembly is carried out according to this scheme.First, three elements are connected.The module on the left side will become the basis for the first row, and on the right side – for the second. It is necessary to ensure that there are 4 basic modules in the second and third rows. Only then can you begin assembling the third row. To form the height of the bud, we make three rows of 15 blanks, each row is closed into a ring. Now you will need accuracy skills in your work – The resulting rings must be turned out. As a result, the short side of the modules will be turned outward. Also take 30 modules to make two identical rows. Let's start making the petals. Between the petals we pass free space into two corners of the modules. We begin to assemble a petal from 4 blanks, reducing their number to one. This will result in three petals in one flower. Modular origami tulip flower can be made from modules of various colors. Upon completion of assembly, the bud is connected to the stem, to which the leaves are already attached. The photo shows what an amazing composition it turns out to be.All that remains is to put the tulips in a vase and enjoy their beauty.
