A cute bouquet can decorate a vase or hairstyle if you make a hairpin out of them. You can decorate a basket with tulips and present it as such present to family and friends on the occasion of the spring holiday on March 8th.
To make tulips you need:
- satin ribbon 2.5 cm wide: green, yellow and pink;
- a narrow red ribbon for a bow;
- bead;
- silicone glue;
- lighter;
- stamens;
- felt;
- tweezers;
- scissors;
- cotton buds.
1. To make one bud, you need to cut the ribbon for the petals into pieces 4-4.5 cm long.
Now we use scissors to cut the corners from one edge to form a semicircle.
Using a candle flame, we process the petal from one edge so that it takes on a three-dimensional shape.
2. Make a fold from the opposite edge, clamp it with tweezers and secure it over the fire.
For one flower you need to make 8 petals.
3. Next, take the base from a cotton swab and glue 4-8 stamens to it.
4. After this, we attach the petals in the following order. The first row should have 3 petals, and the second row should have 8.
5. If the flowers will be used for a vase or topiary, then leaves can be made for them. To do this, cut the green ribbon into 5 cm pieces, fold it in half and cut the sheet into shape, process the edges of the workpiece over the fire.
6. After this, fold the workpiece in half lengthwise, clamp it with tweezers and briefly bring it to the fire, a midrib is formed.
7. Now glue 3 leaves to the base of each flower.
Next, you can wrap the stems with ribbon and use the flowers as a decorative element in the compositions.
I will continue to work with flowers and make a hair clip out of them.
8. To make a sepal, you need to cut the tape into 8 cm pieces. Fold the piece of tape in half and cut it at an angle using a hot knife.
Secure the cut over the fire and turn it inside out.
9. From the remaining 2 triangles you can make a leaf. To do this, we also fasten the cut above the fire, unfold it, make folds on both sides and secure the part above the fire.
10. We insert each flower into the sepal and glue it.
11. For the base you will need a felt oval 3 by 5 cm. It is better if it is green felt, but if this is not available, then you can use white.
All the leaves need to be glued to the base in a circle, forming a bed for the flowers.
12. For the composition I use 4 red flowers and 1 yellow.
13. To complete the composition, you can decorate the composition with a bow made from a narrow red ribbon, in the middle of which a bead should be sewn or glued.
