My potato and cut away a thin (about a millimeter thick) plate. Desirably, plastinik were equal in thickness to the entire surface. Also cut a small "stick". "Wand" will act as a bud.



thinner "petals", the easier they are to wrap



Take the "stick" and wrap it "petals".



Then take another "petal" and twists it to the other side. Similarly, the third petal cheat.



Each subsequent "petal" should be slightly higher than the previous to the middle sank inside. Otherwise, instead of cabbage roses get. But it is a matter of taste. Cabbage of potatoes, too bad.

Fastening preform at the bottom of a toothpick.

In principle, these rosebuds to be served either in the form of a bouquet or as a decoration to any dish.
