You can make crafts from napkins of almost any color, size and quality, but it should be borne in mind that not every napkin will turn out beautiful volumetric flowers- For example, single-layer napkins keep their shape much worse, therefore, from such napkins, flowers can only be made delicate, airy, without clear and strict lines.

It is best to use plain, full-color napkins for making flowers. They can be white or colored, but pay special attention to the fact that the outside and the inside are painted in the same color, otherwise the flowers will not be too neat.

If you are limited in materials, then choose the master class that suits your materials - for example, from white simple napkins you get chic carnations (especially if you have red paint or a marker), and roses are good from thick burgundy napkins.
