Comments:It seems amazing that this flower-shaped containers is made from just one sheet of paper!
 
Completing this model involves a twisting collapse, followed by some folding and tucking maneuvers. The collapse is a little tricky, but will not be too difficult if you have made all the pre-creases correctly.
 
If you make this bowl from a large sheet of card stock or scrapbook paper, it will be big enough and sturdy enough to serve up many different types of snacks.
 
Double-sided paper is recommended because a lot of the reverse side of the paper will show in the fininshed model. Here I've used scrapbook paper which the Star of David and a variety of Hanukkah motifs.
 
A set of these bowls will nest well for storage or you can keep them as flattened sheets, restoring them to 3-D form as needed.
 
You can curl the "petals" a little or a lot, to your own taste, or leave them uncurled. I have applied a gentle curl to all of mine.
 
The bowl shown here earned a Blue Ribbon from the arts and crafts judges at the 2024 Charlotte County Fair in Florida.
