What you can not say about the masterfully made artificial colors that will delight you for so long as you want it yourself, will not cause allergies and become a noticeable decoration of the interior.
Flowers from fabric
Satin, Sitz, Atlas, Velvet, Silk, Park and even leather are suitable for creating fabric flower compositions. If you wish, you can combine different materials, but it is important not to overdo it to get a harmonious composition.
From the materials you will need: 100 × 10-15 cm fabric, scissors, threads with needles and decor for decoring the core of colors (beads, rhinestones, beads, pearls)
- Take the flap of the fabric, we bring one edge to hide the edge, and fold a piece along in half, fix the corner with the thread.
- We flash the metering seam along the entire length of the fabric (the stitch "forward needle"). Having reached the edge, we bring the cloth inside and wrap the end of the fabric in the same way as the first.
- We make the assembly of the resulting tape: pull the thread from one edge so that the fabric is wrinkled, and the flower turned out.
- We twist the flower on the spiral, starting from one edge - so the inflorescence will turn out more. We form the petals with your fingers to your taste: you can make them large, dissolved, and you can leave a neat miniature bud.
- After completing the molding of the flower, fix it with a thread - so that the flower does not break and saved the selected shape.
- In order for the flower to be tidy, layers should be located approximately at the same level. Flower fasten with one simple seam, through the edge of the fabric. The resulting "rose" can serve as an ornament on a dress, a hat, used as a boutonniere, brooches or hairpins.
Flowers from organza
Organza is one of the favorite materials of the decorators. It turns out not only tulle and wedding accessories, but also flowers. To make flowers from organza, you will need scissors, glue with gloves, beads or beads.
- Cut from the fabric flower with four petals. The configuration of petals can be any, both with rounded and sharp edges. We will need two such flower.
- Gently apply on the contour of the flower glitter glitter glitter, in a similar way with the help of glue, we make 2-3 lines on the tissue petal - these are stamens.
- After the glue gets dry, glue one flower to another glue or bilateral scotch. It is necessary to distribute the pieces of fabric in such a way that the petal of one flower stood between the two petals of the other, as a result of data of manipulations, the flower with 8 petals will turn out.
- The center of the resulting flower decorate beads, beads or glitters.
Flowers of leather
The skin is a very fatty material, leather flowers look noble, and most importantly is expensive. Skin is easy to work if you know some subtleties. For example, straight petals are better obtained from thick material, thin skin is much easier to bend and accordingly make bulk compositions.
Increased colors Treat PVA glue mixed with water in proportion 1: 4. During the time the petals dries away, the edges of the future flower need to stretch, so that they take more attractive shape. Next, collect petals with a thread and needles, and decorate the core to the bead. At the wrong side of the flower, glue a special lining - it will help faster to fix the flower.
Flowers from Foamyran

Foamiran is a very plastic material, it is easy to stretch and remembers a new form. The form is fixed with a hot iron. The rich color palette allows the use of material when creating a variety of man-made crafts. In addition, the Foamiran can be painted with ordinary shallow. Flowers made of plastic suede after crushing are returned to its original position and for a long time retain the original appearance.
Pre-make petals on cardboard templates, then cut on them flowers from Foamyran. It is better if you have multicolored sheets of phoamyran, for example, green, white, pink. Next, hot iron apply to petals for a few seconds, it will help them slightly twist and take a natural form. With the help of toothpicks, you can draw streaks, natural look and additional volume will help to give the coloring of the flower chalk. Petals are bonded with hot glue. Keep in mind that the flowers of their Foamiran look like alive, and therefore, to decorate their cores, it is not recommended to use pebbles, rhinestones, beads.
