-
Loop the string through the circle at the end.
-
Continue looping as many times as you can.
*Thicker strings will make fewer loops. -
Even out the loops.
-
Cut out colorful squares from magazines (one per petal).
-
Wrap one around each petal and snip away excess paper.
-
Finally, glue, tape, or varnish the petals so that they do not unwrap.
*You may want to temporarily hold them with a clothespin and varnish them later.

It would be sweet if you could use guitar picks for the petals :0 this is still awesome though.
