Spring Daffodil
Materials:
For this project you will need a piece of paper, a pencil and colored pencils.
Step 1:
Fold your paper in half, and then in half again to create 4 equal spaces.
Step 2:
Just to the right of the center line, in the top right rectangle, draw an oval.
Step 3:
Draw a small wavy line around the oval.
Step 4:
Add half of a rectangle to the back side of your oval.
Step 5:
Draw three petals in a triangle shape.
Step 6:
Add three more petals. One in between each of the ones you drew before.
These petals should look like they are behind the ones you drew earlier.
Step 7:
Draw a stem that goes just past the center fold line of your paper.
Step 8:
Draw the leaves from the bottom of the paper up to the stem.
Step 9:
Add some lines to your petals and a pistil to the inside of your oval.
FACT: A pistil is where pollen attached so that flowers can fertilize seeds and reproduce!
Step 10:
Add background detail for your flower.
Step 11:
Color your daffodil!
TIP: If you use more that one color on your flower, you can make it look more realistic by using the darker color where there would be shadows!
