At the next stage, we take that strip, which is a bit narrower, and in the same way we process its edge and spin it around the first part of the bud, which was made earlier. We do this operation until all the strips run out. At the final stage we connect the bud and stem. To do this, cut a small cone from the rest of the bottle. We twist it around the bud and fix it with scotch tape. We cut the other end of it and put it on the stem. Fix it with the help of all the same tape. At the final stage we decorate it.
