  1. Cut a square piece of crepe paper (8 cm x 8 cm).
  2. Fold it in half diagonally to form a triangle.
  3. Fold the triangle again into a smaller triangle.
  4. Unfold the larger triangle and position it with the central point facing down.
  5. Take the right tip and fold it down to meet the bottom tip. Repeat with the left tip to form a rhombus.
  6. Fold the rhombus in half to create a small triangle, then fold the central tip inward on both sides.
  7. Cut the shorter wings into a curved shape—when unfolded, this will reveal an eight-petaled flower.

2️⃣ Assembling the Flowers
