Where we drew the lines, we make cuts to a straight line, not reaching 3 cm to the edge.



Unbend the sheet with cuts



Then we turn the sheet out the other side and fold it not exactly edge to edge, but retreating 1 cm.



After that, coat it with glue and glue it together.



When the glue sets, we begin to roll it up into a tube.



This creates a blank for the stem. You can put it on the table and it won't fall off.
