Send

Flowers are made of various delicate fabrics, in orange and pink, using a candle. The brooch consists of 2 roses and 1 bud, and on the rim there are 7 flowers and two buds.

To create a kit, take:
- silk, nylon, chiffon pink and orange in various colors and 2 types of green fabric.
- scissors.
- a candle.
- tweezers.
- foil.
- a piece of foam.
- a long needle with a thread.
- thin wire.
- basis for a brooch.
- the rim.
- a thin tape for winding the base.
- Moment glue.
- a few beads on a fishing line for decoration.
- glue gun.
And let's start by cutting circles from fabrics. First, decide on the color of roses. What colors will be more pink or orange. And from this you can calculate the number of petals you need. For one rose, you will need 10 large petals with a diameter of 5 cm. An average size of 4 cm needs to be prepared also 10 pieces. And the smallest, with a diameter of 3 cm should cut 10 petals. It remains only to calculate the right amount of a certain color, and the total will look like this: 90, 108 and 108 pieces. Additionally, the petals for the buds were taken into account. For one, 6 petals of medium and small sizes are enough.

Now you need to burn the edges of all the blanks with a candle flame. You can bring it with tweezers or just with your hand.

And for further processing of the petals, you need to make a simple tool. From the foil folded in 6-8 layers, we cut out circles that will correspond to the diameters of the blanks. This is 5, 4 and 3 cm. Next, we put the foil on the fabric, leaving the edge of the petal slightly free. We place this blank above the candle, foil to the flame. And thanks to the rigid base, the edge of the petal makes an even bend.

It takes a little patience to process all silk blanks.

But there was still two kinds of green fabric. From it we will cut leaves in the shape of a boat, 4 cm long and 2 cm wide. 15 leaves will need 15 pieces of several dark and light colors. And since the fabric is thin, it should be glued together with “Moment” 2 times. When the workpieces dry well, you can cut the cloves along the edge. Next, we bend the sheet in half in length and bring it to the candle with a fold, pressing it with our fingers. It turns out the main average vein.

Now let's start assembling roses. And for this we will prepare a piece of foam rubber and a long needle with a thread.

We stick with a needle eye in the middle of foam rubber. We select the petals in one color, but from different fabrics. We will collect the whole flower for a revolution, from larger to smaller. The first to use 10 large blanks, just prick the needle into the edge opposite the bend, 0.8 cm from the edge. But the first 5 petals are rotated by this fold to the foam rubber in a circle.

The rest of all the blanks should look in the center of the rose. Next we have an average size of 10 petals, beautifully arranged in a circle.

Add 6 small blanks. And remove the whole flower with a needle from the base. We make a tack by passing a needle and thread through all the petals, do not cut it. Fill the remaining four small petals with a fan and twist them into a bud. Then we pierce with a needle and pull in the middle of the rose, we fix it well.

The needle is now displayed on the wrong side and again do not cut. Now, take 2 green leaves of different tones, thread them on the needle together.

And we fix on the flower.

The remaining 8 roses are performed in the same sequence, but without fixing the green leaves. Next, you need to complete 3 buds. We take the remaining petals and three warp foil bases fixed to the wires. The size of the base should be smaller than a small petal.

But the assembly of the buds will be with a glue gun and in a different sequence. First you need to close the foil with small petals.

Then in a circle we fasten the remaining small ones, and then we place the rest of the workpiece. Additionally, cut out a circle of green fabric in one layer and glue to the bottom of the roses, piercing with wire. And we glue it with a green strip. The buds are ready. And now let's start assembling the kit. Let's start with the brooch. We take a rose with leaves and another other color, 1 bud, an iron base for a brooch and a circle of dense fabric, smaller than the base.

Let's start fastening everything to a fabric base. We bend the bottom edge of the wire into a ring and for it we sew the bud to the middle of the base. We put crosses, notes for the future attachment of flowers.

Sew our two roses to the designated places. If desired, at this stage you can sew bead jewelry on a fishing line. Then we glue the two bases together with a glue gun.

The bud will point down the brooch. One part of the kit is ready.

Now let's move on to the rim. For better fastening, you need to paste it with a tape in the tone of the flowers. Then we have 2 buds, 7 roses and leaves.

Since there are many colors, it should be pre-positioned without fixing around the rim. Distribute the leaves and buds to be sewn.

And now let's start fixing roses on the rim. First glue the lowest flowers, which should be at least 10 cm from the beginning of the rim. There is a rose on one side and a flower with a bud on the other.

Now in the middle of the rim we have another rose with a bud.

And now between two flowers we glue two roses, picking the color.

It remains only to add 2 more flowers on the other hand and the rim is ready.

But for additional reliability of fastening it is necessary to cut out small circles from fabric for flowers. And on the wrong side, glue them through the rim to the flowers. The decoration is ready.
