The craftsmanship of making lotus flowers can be divided into two types. One is to use colored paper, scissors and glue to make flat lotus flowers, and the other is to use organic materials and hand-making skills to make realistic lotus flowers. Below I will introduce you to both methods.

①Make lotus flowers with colored paper

Materials:

Red, green and pink colored paper

Scissors

Glue

Steps:

1. Use green colored paper to cut out the shape of a lotus leaf.

2. Use pink colored paper to cut out the petals of the lotus. The size can be adjusted according to your own requirements. It is recommended to cut 4-5 petals from each lotus.

3. Paste the petals around the lotus leaf in sequence, and finally stick the flower core, and stick a small dot in the center of the flower center. The hand-made lotus flower is completed.

② Use organic materials to make lotus flowers

Materials:

White translucent flour cloth

Green straw rope

Red dyed translucent cloth

Colorful flower petals

Scissors

Needle and thread

Glue

1. Cut the white translucent flour cloth into the shape of a lotus. You can adjust the size according to your needs.

2. Use green straw rope to make the shape of a lotus leaf, and then sew it to the bottom of the lotus.

3. Cut the red dyed translucent cloth into the shape of lotus petals. The size can be adjusted according to your needs.

4. Use needle and thread to sew the petals to the straw rope at the bottom of the lotus. The number of layers should be no less than 3, so that the lotus will be more realistic.

5. Piece the colorful flower petals into the shape of the lotus heart, and stick them in the center of the lotus with glue.

6. Finally, use green grass rope to connect the grass rope at the bottom of the lotus and the lotus leaves, and the handmade lotus is completed.

The above are two methods of making lotus flowers. You can choose the materials and methods that suit you. I wish you a happy making!
