After you have folded all of your paper you have to glue each pedal like this ☝🏼(you don’t have to use hot glue but I think it’s easiest)

A Little Gluing

After you glue all your pedals you will take 5 of them and glue them into a flower like this☝🏼.

A Lot of Glueing

You can repeat the twelve times and you will have a dozen small flowers.

Next, you take them one at a time and glue them together when your done the corners of 3 flowers in the ornament should look like this☝🏼.

Adding Wire

After you have glued all 12 flowers together you will have a kind of geometric ball.

Then you can take some wire and make a loop for it to hang on a Christmas tree.
