Work sequence.
First you need to process the rim.
On its flat surface, the future bow will not hold well, for this a narrow ribbon will be required.
The edge of the light purple ribbon needs to be scorched so that it does not crumble while wearing the rim. Then, with this narrow ribbon, you should wrap the rim, not forgetting to make even distances between each turn. It is not necessary to make frequent rim wraps; the main thing is to cover the main part of the rim surface.
Glue should be distributed in an even layer, and along the entire line of contact of the tape and rim. It is important to ensure that glue excess does not protrude beyond the tape.
Temporarily the rim can be removed so as not to interfere, and proceed to create a floral bow. To do this, you need a wide tape, from which you need to prepare squares with sides of 50 mm. In total, such pieces for the rim will need 24 pieces.
Volumetric details need to be made from each square. Having picked up one blank, it is necessary to bend it, being guided by the diagonal line, to make a triangle.
The resulting blank must now be folded in half, and repeat the action twice more. The result is a triangular piece, bent in four layers.
Having placed the cuts to the bottom, you need to cut them with scissors, correcting possible irregularities and immediately burn with fire to solder together. It is important to do this carefully so that the tape does not burn out and is not covered with black opals, but at the same time each layer of fabric must be processed.
A strong seam formed at the singeing site. The entire petal at this place needs to be turned out.
The volumetric petal is ready, it remains to make the same of the other pink squares.
Now for each petal you need to make a leaf. To do this, you need a tape of fuchsia color of medium width. From it should be prepared segments of 4.5 cm. Their total number should correspond to the petals.
All leaflets also need to be created separately. Having picked up the first segment, you need to place it face up.
Then fold along the entire length in half, combining the edges, and hiding the wrong side inside.
Having squeezed a line of a bend by fingers it is necessary to cut the top corner under a small inclination. In this case, the bend should remain unchanged.
The inclined section needs to be scorched while soldering the addition of the tape together.
The workpiece can be straightened, the petal is almost ready.
From other segments you need to make similar leaves.
Further petals and leaves must be combined. The lower part of the petal should be greased with glue and attached to the pointed part of the leaf, 2-3 mm indent.
The bottom cut of the leaf must wrap the petal on both sides.
Holding in this position, the slice must be treated with fire, soldering.
This action must be repeated with all the leaves and petals, combining them.
Now you can start collecting a bow. To create the first row, you need to glue together two petals, combining their side parts.
In the second row, you need to place the details to the lower side of the first level. Three petals should be glued between the details of the first row.
Then two petals need to be fixed in the center.
And one more detail to stick on the edges, as shown in the photo.
So the first half of the bow came out.Repeating all the steps you need to make a similar half.
Having put the bow halves to felt, it is necessary to cut the base according to their shape. It should turn out in the form of a pyramid.
Such parts will need 2 pieces, the same size. They should be glued to the inside of the bow halves. These bases will close the intersection points of the petals and facilitate the attachment of the bow to the rim.
The remaining two petals now need to be attached at the very beginning of the bow halves, giving them a neat and complete look. Both parts are ready, you can begin to fasten the bow to the rim.
Having departed from the edge of the rim of 8 cm, it is necessary to glue the first bow blank, with the bottleneck up.
Then you should fix the second part of the bow, docking their narrow edges together. It is important to ensure that the bezel fits snugly against the bow.
The middle of the bow should be wrapped with a light purple ribbon to close the seams of the petals.
Along the middle, on top of a narrow ribbon, glue a decorative braid imitating silver rhinestones.
It remains to supplement the bow with a few pink rhinestones.
The Floral Bow Bezel is Ready!
