Lay that end of the ribbon in the fork of the tool.

Roll the ribbon around the tool by turning the tool.

|

|
Fold the ribbon down to form a petal.

|
Place a dot of glue at the base of the opposite side of the rolled ribbon bud.

|

|
Roll the tool so that the turned down edge of the folded
ribbon meets the dot of glue.
|
|

|
Fold the ribbon down again to form the next petal.
|
|

|
Place a dot of glue beneath the first petal.
|

To
make a rosebud, only wrap two or three petals.

Cut
the ribbon a little away from the tool.

Make as many roses as you need and attach by gluing or sewing to your project.
This will work well with ribbon made from any natural fiber.
