Description
UPDATE:I've made a video tutorial version so you can see how it's folded:
[link]
I've decided to turn some of my old tutorials into simple one image versions like this because people asked for easier versions they could reblog on Pinterest/Tumblr etc.
This one is on a really simple way to make a ribbon rose which you can then use for hair accessories, clothing, cosplay, anything really!
Hope you guys enjoy it, let me know if you have requests or think I could improve in the layout etc ^_^
The original tutorial I wrote is here: [link]

I made one out of steel sheet, took a couple of tries, but it worked just fine once I got the hang of it

I'm trying to make a rosebud. To make it smaller, you'd just stop when it's the size you want, right? But is there any way to flatten it so it's not so full at a smaller size?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes that's correct, just stop when it's the size you like. To make it smaller and flatter then you can use a thinner ribbon or curl it more tightly. Hope that helps!

We already made it. We ended up just stitching it to look flatter. It worked out well enough.
I might be able to post the pic I'm using it for on here when I'm done. I might be able to. I'll send you the link if I do.

About how much ribbon do you use per rose?
π: 0 β©: 1
It depends on the width of the ribbon and the size of the rose but I'd estimate maybe 30cm!

Is it okej for me to use this for a school project?
I have a project about life, death or life and death, I chose the life, and thought about that our life is just like a rose.
and I also thought about to make a lot of difference roses, for all the kind of people and religies on the world,
so can i use it?

Sure, you're welcome to use the technique to make roses for your school project. I just ask people don't make things to sell from my tutorials. Thank you so much for asking permission and good luck with your project!

I've done this with hockey tape before, except I did it backwards kind of... I did all the folding, then put the end through the middle and twisted it

Oooh that's a really clever idea too!

Thank you! Very easy to follow and beautiful!

It's the continuous stitching that messes me up. It's going good but after the third fold, I just lose myself there. But I'm getting better. Thanks for the tutorial! It's amazing!

Ah that can be tricky because you have to go round in a spiral to follow the ribbon. Practice makes perfect and no worries at all, let me know if I can help more!

i have tried a few times now to make one of these, but i never seem to get it right. i'm still going to try though. but when i do make one, i am definitely making some kind of accessory with it.

I can't get it right! DX how wide is your ribbon? I'm not sure how to do the folding.. ;A; I sent nearly an hour and it's like a lopsided ribbon staircase..? Do you fold it the same amount each time? D; help please!
π: 0 β©: 1
This ribbon was around 3cm wide but you can do it with any size, the rose just ends up being bigger or smaller. Yes you fold the same amount. Are you curling it in a spiral while you fold it so it's rose shaped? If you give me more information I'm happy to help as much as I can
