Not all little fashionistas like to wear hats or hats, so mothers wear knitted dressings covering their ears and tightly hanging on their heads. But even such an ordinary dressing can be made original and beautiful.

To create such a dressing you will need:
- a satin ribbon 50 mm wide in beige.
- tweezers with inclined edges.
- scissors.
- beads with a diameter of 7 mm, silver color.
- lighter.
- A narrow satin ribbon 12 mm wide.
- decorative ornaments in the form of flowers with a diameter of 20 mm.
- glue gun.
The creation of jewelry.
The narrow orange ribbon should be turned with the wrong side facing you. The edge must be leveled with scissors and scorched by fire. The finished edge should be bent at an angle, pointing down so that a fold line is formed on the upper side of the edge.

In this position, it is better to fix the corner with glue so that it does not interfere with the further creation of the flower.
The resulting edge needs to be bent one more time, but now directing along the length of the tape.

It turned out a small triangle, which should be wrapped with tape, not reaching 1 cm to the edge of the fold band.

At this point, you need to fix the twisted tube, securing a drop of glue. Then the edge of the tape must be directed downward, relative to the tube, creating a twisting of the fabric.

The resulting fold also needs to be wrapped around the tube, but make sure that the fabric does not tighten and does not strongly press against the center.

Further, it is necessary to twist the tape evenly and wrap it around the central tube, regularly fixing the action with glue. With each revolution, the rose is bigger and more beautiful.
When the flower’s circumference reaches 4.5 cm, you should stop and cut the ribbon, fix it on the wrong side of the product.

This size will require one flower, and a smaller diameter, you should prepare two roses. Flowers should reach 3.5 cm in diameter.

Now you need to make leaflets. To do this, you need a beige wide ribbon. With a width of 5 cm, the tape should be cut into pieces of 4 cm.

In total, such pieces need to be made 10 pieces.
All leaflets are created separately, therefore, picking up one segment, you need to fold it in half, combining the two edge lines on the tape.

Having departed from the upper cut of 2 cm, the edges should be cut, removing the angle to the beginning of the bend strip.

Clamping an inclined section with tweezers, it should be carefully treated with fire to solder both layers of tape.

The resulting sheet must be straightened, directing the adhesion line back.

The slice remaining below should be leveled with scissors, cutting off irregularities and processing with a lighter.

From the remaining segments, it is necessary to prepare the same pointed leaves. After creating the leaves, you need to supplement them with all three flowers. Three roses should be attached to small roses.

The remaining 4 leaves need to be glued to the large rose, but arranged as in the picture.

Now you can decorate the bandage with flowers. First you should fix a small flower, directing its leaves to the left.

Step away from it 4 cm, it is necessary to attach a second small rose, turning the leaves to the right.

The remaining void must be covered with a large rose, directing its leaves up and down relative to the bandage.

Next, the bandage must be decorated with large beads, attaching them to the base of the leaves and in the middle of the roses. Decorative small flowers should be distributed over the loose fabric of the dressing, supplementing them with beads.

The dressing is ready!
