Roses make exceptionally sweet scented perfumes and they can also be dried and packaged as decoration and air fresheners.

STEP 1
First begin by drawing a small coffee bean shape at the centre of your paper. This is going to be the centre of your rose bud.
STEP 2
Draw a spiral around the coffee bean. This should be draw from the coffee bean outwards in a clockwise curve. The spiral should not be too long, two laps are enough.
STEP 3
The next step is to draw two squiggly (logoligi) lines next to the spiral. One should start next to the inner spiral. And the other squiggly line should begin next to the outer spiral.
STEP 4
Next draw 3 connecting lines. One line from the spiral to the inner squiggly line. And the other 2 connecting lines is draw from an outer spiral downwards and an outer squiggly line downwards too. These lines are going to shape the bud at the centre of the rose.

You are doing great so far…keep it up. Now we need to draw our petals. Our petal is a simple curve which touches the bud at certain points. This is to give it an irregular shape to make it appear real.
STEP 7
Draw the base of your flower. Then two little triangles to serve as base leave. For the stem, draw a noodle like structure.
STEP 8
Our rose is almost done. The next thing is to draw two big leaves on your stem. You may choose to either shade, colour or paint your beautiful rose.
