This is a lovely gesture for a date, a dinner party guest (as a table decoration), a young child...anyone, really! Just grab a paper napkin (or tissue, or paper towel) and follow these steps.
Steps
- Unfold the napkin completely.
-
Fold the top down about two inches. -
Hold the upper left corner between your fingers. -
Begin to wrap the napkin around your fingers. Start out by going behind your fingers. -
Continue wrapping the napkin rather tightly around your fingers. -
Stop wrapping when there are about two inches left. Fold the corner upwards. -
Finish wrapping. -
With your other hand, start tightly twisting the base of the rose. Once the base is secure, you can pull your fingers out gently. -
Keep twisting until you get about halfway down the stem. At that point, find a corner of the napkin and pull it gently so it sticks out. Then continue twisting until the rose is finished!

Tips
- You can make several and tie them together (or put them in a cup) to create a bouquet.
