Tomb-Sweeping Day has white flowers made of paper.

Regarding the white flowers made of Tomb-Sweeping Day paper, there are the following answers:

Take three sheets of white paper or toilet paper, usually three sheets of paper. When finished, the petals will have nine layers! Cut to size. This is a crucial step. Be sure to cut it into rectangles, or the flowers will not be round. Fold in half along the rectangular accordion.

Right in the middle. Tie it with a rope. If you have a pin at home, you can do it at this step. Cut the ends of the paper into petal arcs. Spread the paper into a circle. In order to facilitate the layering of petals behind, it is best to wipe the edge to make the layering clear.

Spread the petals layer by layer, and pay attention to the fact that the middle one must be as close to the center of the circle as possible. The unfolding process needs to be very careful and gentle. Don't tear paper. It's over!
