- a large bead in the form of a lilac crystal.
- glue gun.
- a circle with a diameter of 5 cm made of green satin ribbon.
- rectangles measuring 5x5.5 cm from scarlet satin ribbon, 15 parts.
- rectangles measuring 5x6.5 cm made of scarlet satin ribbon, 20 parts.
- lighter.

Assembling the decoration.
All petals are created in the same way. The rectangular piece is placed face down and short side up on the table. Now at the top side you need to bend both corners to the middle of the part.
