Materials that we use in the work on the gift:
- some red plush.
- needle with thread.
- glue "Moment".
- scissors.
- thick white thread.
- small beads on a string.
- brocade tape 0.6 cm wide.
- medium-sized mother-of-pearl beads.
- braid with rhinestones.
- plastic leaflets of red and silver color.
- plastic suede with spangles 2 mm thick.
- iron.
- toothpick.
- filler for the heart.
Let's start making the heart. From the fabric we cut out two details of the desired shape measuring 7 x 9 cm. And sew with a needle and thread into small stitches, leaving a hole for turning out. And when the heart was deployed on the front side, it should be filled through this segment and gently sewed. The density of the toy should not be very soft. And if you wish, you can additionally embroider the words: "I love you."
Now we turn to decorating the heart itself. Cut 5 strips of thick white thread, on one edge of each segment we attach beads. You just need to make a knot, grease it with glue and stretch it inside the beads. Then thread these 5 blanks with a free edge through a larger bead. Next, we determine the length of all five threads, it is desirable to arrange them at different heights. And then we tie a common knot, which we also glue already in a large bead. We securely fix this entire structure on the acute lower part of the heart.
Now with two strips of strass on the braid we close the seam on the basis of plush, starting from the large mother-of-pearl part.
Further we continue to decorate the upper part of the heart. From brocade we collect a small bundle of curls and fasten with a thread, with which we sew it in the chosen place.
Next, add a folded eight of small beads on a thread. Glue well.
But decorative shiny leaves will need to be sewn with thread. We place them from different sides from the resulting center of decoration.
It remains to add only a beautiful rose. And we’ll start by preparing a petal template. On the basis of circles, with a diameter of 7 and 8 cm, we draw three petals with a common center.
We cut out the patterns and apply them to the wrong side of the selected plastic suede. With a toothpick we outline the contours and cut out two petal circles of different sizes.
Now turn on the iron at high power, as suede is 2 mm thick. We will do heat treatment separately for each part of the petal circle. We put the part on the wrong side to the iron, and as soon as the material begins to compress, we remove it. And with fingers we make a new shape. With one finger we press the middle on the front side. And with the other hand with two fingers we press on the wrong side the upper edge of the petal, press over the finger on the front side. It turns out a strong interesting bend.
In this way we process all parts of the workpieces. We heat the material with heat, and with our fingers we make a new shape.
We have 4 such blanks.
Now you can proceed to the assembly of roses. For the middle of the flower, take a small piece of suede, which was when cutting out the details. Glue it into a tube and fix it in the middle of a smaller petal circle.
It remains to glue 3 petals to the resulting middle, arranging in a spiral. The first row is glued.
The second row will be another small part that we glue in a checkerboard pattern relative to the first.
The large two parts are also arranged beautifully in turn towards the rose.
And when the flower is ready, it should be firmly fixed in the center of the prepared decoration on the heart. A souvenir for lovers is ready.
Good luck to all!
