Release the soothing effect of the aroma and vapors from the Eucalyptus leaves my slightly crushing it while making roses
Remove the smooth Eucalyptus leaves from the stem.
Roll the leaf on the stem side
Secure the leaf with a small drop of glue
For the petals:
Carefully roll the one side of the leaf
The leaf now curves in
Carefully roll the other side to curve it like the first
Both sides of the Eucalyptus leaf now curves in
Roll the top part of the leaf back.
Release the curl and the curve will remain
Wrap this leaf around the rolled leaf and secure with a drop of glue
Curve more leaves and continue to wrap
Leave gaps bewteen each leaf to make an opened rose
Continue to add leaf-petals
Secure the petals with glue and allow the rose to dry. The rose remains fragrant even after drying completely
