How to make different shapes for buns

This post is about how to make those different shapes out of dough, to make your buns look beautiful and tempting:) These are just some varieties, but you always can "invent" your own way. These are not my own inventions, I have learned them from different sources:)
So, how to make this gorgeous heart?

This is how: Roll out small portion from the dough, grease the surface with butter, sprinkle some poppy seeds or cinnamon and sugar.

Now roll it around itself:

Fold this log in half and cut the middle:

Open up the edges to outer side, and voila! You have your heart shape:

How to make a rose:

Roll out the small portion of dough, grease with butter, put poppy seeds or any other filling you like right in the middle. Cut 4 lines around it:

Start folding the edges, making sure that center part is open, just fold them one on top of another:

Spirals:

Make the same log as for rose. Don't fold it. Just cut the log along lengthwise:

Now fold these two parts, making spiral:

Now you know how to make all these beautiful shapes!
