Autumn gives us not only cool weather, rain and slush. Her arrival is usually accompanied by rich, bright colors in which nature dresses. Heaps of bright leaves underfoot just beg: “Take us, collect us in bouquets, take a piece of autumn with you into the house.”

Let us not resist their call. But instead of banal bouquets of leaves, let's try to decorate the interior of the apartment in an autumn style in a new way. And for this we use flowers that will delight the eye for three long months, and, if desired, longer. Let's make roses out of

What will you need for such an unusual bouquet?

Naturally, first of all, you should go to the park and pick up more bright ones. You can collect everything, but if you want to make the bouquet more interesting, try to find purple or crimson ones, which will become the buds of future roses. Well, besides this, you need to prepare a spool of strong thread and a vase. So we don’t need any unusual devices.

Before making roses from maple leaves, they need to be sorted and washed - dust, soil particles and other street dirt often settle on them. Rinse them under running water and place on a terry towel to dry.

How to make roses from maple leaves?

We select 5-6 medium-sized leaves for one flower. One of them will become the base of our rose, and the rest will become its petals. As you know, each leaf has a front and back side. The first one is brighter and smoother, and the reverse one shows the veins better. We fold our leaf horizontally in half. We tightly roll the resulting workpiece into a roll. The core of the bud is ready.

Next we move on to winding the petals. We take the next sheet and fold it in half in the same way, but this time so that when applied to the core, the bend is slightly higher than it. The front side of the sheet should be on the outside. We slightly bend the part protruding above the core outward, and then wrap the edges around our bud. Then we take the next sheet and perform the same operation, but this time on the other side of the core. The first two petals are ready. So we continue to wind the next leaves until the moment when the bud becomes the right size and pomp.

Now let's move on to the final stage. We wrap the finished bud at the base with thread and firmly fix it. We make roses from leaves using the same method further. After that, we collect them together, wrap them around the perimeter with large maple leaves - this time they will be the border of the bouquet, and will also disguise the protruding cuttings at the base of the roses. We tie the resulting flower with threads and place it in a vase without water.

These roses will be a beautiful addition to your interior decor. In addition to ease of manufacture, they are also attractive due to the brightness of their colors. You can make monochromatic buds - lemon yellow, orange, red - and arrange the same themed bouquets from them. Or you can combine different leaves in one flower - you will get very funny variegated roses. In addition, for greater durability, the finished flowers can be sprayed on top with the most common hairspray. And if it is also with sparkles, the buds will acquire a pleasant shimmer. Well, if you have a can of silver or gold paint in your house, you can make futuristic roses in these shades. These flowers can be used as Christmas decorations, if you carefully trim the cuttings of the leaves and attach a thread loop to the rose.

A new autumn has arrived, and our golden autumn bouquet roses made from leaves. This is just some kind of miracle! The reality of unreality is to fold rose petals from a maple leaf!

The author of the idea of ​​making roses from autumn leaves is my colleague, a teacher. primary school Natalya Yakubova. Unfortunately, her lesson - how to make a rose from maple leaves - was copied from us by many sites without indicating the authorship of these materials...

We are happy to share this art with the readers of the site.

So, a virtual lesson from Natalia: the sequence of making such a wonderful bouquet of roses from leaves, with my photographs and comments.
At the end of the article - advice from our readers who learned how to make a bouquet of roses from leaves.

Making a rose from maple leaves step by step

We collect suitable leaves (too small, dry, diseased, torn leaves are NOT suitable for us) of various colors. To make one flower, it is better to choose leaves of the same color.

We fold the first sheet in half, across the central vein - so that the front side of the sheet is on the outside.
Now we roll this folded sheet into a tight roll. This roll will be the “core” of the rose.


Now we begin to place “petals” around this “core” of the flower. To begin with, we take a leaf, and place the “core” in its center (note that the front side of the leaf is inside the future flower!).
We bend this sheet outward in half. The edge of the bend of the “petal” is located above the “core” by a centimeter and a half. Smooth out the fold of the sheet.
And now we also bend this protruding edge of the sheet outward, but do not smooth out the fold...


We wrap the side edges of this double-folded sheet on both sides around the “core”.
We pinch the lower edges of the leaf at the very base of the flower.
We take a new sheet for the next “petal” and repeat the operation just performed. Only this petal is now placed on the side opposite to the first leaf.


Next, we perform several similar operations, adding new leaves - now the petals are collected into a bud. Add leaves until you think it is enough to complete the flower.
When the bud is ready, we tie threads around its base to secure the flower.
How many flowers there will be in your bouquet is up to you. For this “photo shoot” we had three...


Making a bouquet

Now let’s take care of the “greenery” of the bouquet that frames our roses. The most beautiful and variegated leaves are suitable here.

To prevent these leaves from curling into a tube the next day when drying, it is better to first iron them between sheets of newspaper. After this procedure they will become more fragile, but if handled carefully they will not be damaged.

We evenly arrange the prepared leaves in a circle, placing them under the buds in the hand. Then we fix the now finished bouquet at its base with the same threads.
By the way, you can wrap this knot with yellow paper tape (painting tape) over the threads. The ribbon will hide the threads and make the bouquet look neater and more complete.

Here is our autumn bouquet of roses from maple leaves and it’s ready!
I’ll tell you a secret that I folded one of the three roses in this bouquet :)


And here is some advice we received from users of the forum of the site www.eva.ru:
“In order for a bouquet of roses made from leaves to last longer, you need to lubricate the already rolled roses with vegetable oil (with a brush). The oil is absorbed after two days. The leaves become soft, do not dry out, do not lose color and do not shrink.”

Tips from our readers:

“Indeed, leaf flowers smeared with sunflower oil last much longer. Checked: our rose has been standing for a year now, and is still just as beautiful :)
By the way, in sunflower oil you can add a couple of drops essential oil. I added pine and really liked the result. Or you can take orange - it has been proven that it improves mood. Experiment!”

“Sunflower oil will dry out over time and turn into a sticky drying oil.”
Florists use for.
If you put twigs or leaves in a mixture of glycerin and water (3:1, hot water), they will not dry out, but will remain soft. The only thing is that there may be an unpredictable change in the color of the leaves.
You can probably lubricate the autumn leaves with pure glycerin to make them softer. Or liquid silicone."

“You can go to the flower department and ask to cover all this beauty with a special varnish, which is used to treat cut flowers when necessary and when not necessary.”

“You can treat a finished bouquet of roses with regular hairspray :)))
I watched how they make mats from autumn leaves - they are covered with some kind of special glue, which makes the entire texture of the sheet clear. Then all its veins become very distinct, and the color of the leaf plays out.”

“At home I have a can of flower varnish (well, for glossy leaves indoor plants shined better). So we coated our bouquet of 11 roses with this varnish, and it turned out really great!”

“I was able to secure this stunning bouquet of autumn leaves using melted wax. Roses and individual leaves did not lose their color after this treatment and have been delighting us for the second year!”

“We also sprinkled glitter on our made roses, and it turned out absolutely gorgeous!”

“Last fall I painted rose leaves made from leaves with gold paint, and in winter I decorated the Christmas tree with them.”
Here's what happened:


“And in Israel we made roses from sycamore leaves.”

“We don’t have any maples with red leaves in our area. I had to use wonderful crimson-red leaves to complete miniature roses, and for framing a bouquet.”

“You definitely need big maple leaves to make roses. Moreover, if the size of the leaves is different, then you need to start with smaller ones, because for the growing volume of the rose, a larger leaf is needed each time.”
