You can make beautiful and miniature flowers yourself. To do this, you need to prepare supplies, tools and choose the appropriate master class. To make an attractive and practical plant-related crafts, many craftswomen use foamiran.

Features

If you want to make an original decorative element with your own hands, pay attention to such a type of needlework as flowers made from fiomiran. This is a porous material that is often used for various crafts. It is convenient to work with it, because of which even beginners will be able to make beautiful crafts. The main thing is to make efforts and precisely follow the chosen master class.

Small flowers from foamiran will become a wonderful decoration of the interior. Also with their help you can decorate clothes and accessories.

The main feature of the material is that it changes and seems to come to life under different lighting conditions.

Foamiran is a flexible and innovative canvas with a porous texture. It can be given any shape that lasts for a long time. This material can be bought at a needlework store in a wide variety of colors and textures. It is affordable and sold in sheet or roll format.

Small flowers will give a simple hairstyle to originality and elegance. And ordinary jewelry, supplemented by artificial plant elements, will become much more interesting, attractive and expressive.

Tools and materials

Before proceeding to the manufacture of crafts, you need to prepare the following:

  • foamiran of the desired shade, it is recommended to choose a thin material for flowers (thickness up to 1 millimeter);
  • tape tape;
  • scissors;
  • flexible wire;
  • set of brushes for painting;
  • paints to give the product more realism;
  • decorative elements: beads, rhinestones;
  • a piece of sponge;
  • glue gun;
  • hole punch with nozzle of the required shape;
  • patterns and stencils.

This is an extended list of items you may need. The exact list depends on which workshop you choose.

Manufacturing options

To make neat and pretty flowers with your own hands, you need to prepare:

  • white and green foamiran;
  • sharp scissors;
  • teip tape dark green;
  • special shaped hole punch in the shape of flowers;
  • wire;
  • artificial stamens;
  • butter pastel (you need at least 2 colors);
  • piece of paper (you can use old newspapers or magazines);
  • mold in the form of a sheet.

Work step by step

First you need to cut off the strip from the white material. Width is 2.5 centimeters. This is due to the fact that the hole punch makes flowers in the amount of 2.3 centimeters. You can choose any parameters, depending on the materials used.

Next, you need to cut the same tape, only paper. It will come in handy when working with a figured hole punch. Porous material gets stuck in it during cutting.

Using paper padding, work is much faster and more convenient.

We pick up a hole punch and cut a foamiran. The more colors you want to make, the more blanks you will need.

Using pastel, you need to give the colors the right shade. We make out the core in one shade, and the petals in another.

In our case, we use pink and green. Here is the result. You can choose any other color.

To make the products look natural, give them the desired shape. We need an iron. We turn it on, select the gentle mode, for example, “silk”, wait until it heats up, and apply each blank to it for several seconds. Under the influence of temperature, the petals will rise. If done correctly, the flowers will look like this.

Now we supplement the buds with stamens. We insert them inside each flower and fix with glue. This is how the blanks will look.

We begin to draw up the stalk. Here we need a green ribbon, we unwind a little.

We collect a bunch of three flowers and begin to wrap the legs.

We attach a piece of wire and continue decorating using a green ribbon.

As you move, add flowers to get such an element.

If desired, you can combine two branches into one. Get a lush and miniature bouquet.

Now we need leaves. Cut two shapes from a green canvas. To make them look realistic, we will give them the necessary shape with the help of mold.

Cut blanks need to be heated with an iron, applied to the mold and pressed. As a result, veins will appear on the leaves.

Wrap the wire pieces tightly with a green teip tape and glue the blanks to the leaves. Here is what should happen.

We connect all the elements together. Handmade item is ready.

Growing neat roses

For work you will need:

  • set of stacks and figured hole punch;
  • basic material of any color (for leaves and petals);
  • thick paper or cardboard;
  • iron;
  • glue gun.

MK is as follows.

First you need to make a template for crafts. Cut the blank for leaves from cardboard. Elements should have compact dimensions (3 centimeters will be enough). Cut leaves from green foamiran with the help of a template.

To give the leaves an expressive appearance, they need to be processed with a stack. Using this tool, we draw veins on the leaves using the method of conducting along and pressing.

With the help of a hole punch we make flowers. The maximum diameter is up to 3 centimeters.

If you want the finished craft to look bright and colorful, you can use a porous canvas of different colors.

For an attractive appearance of the buds, you need to make small indentations, cuts on the petals (you can see in the photograph of the finished product what shape the petals should be).

Each petal needs to be heated with an iron. Keep the material under the influence of temperature no more than 10 seconds.

Now the flowers can be collected and fixed with glue. Gather a few blanks for the bud together to make a flower. The petals at the edges need to be carefully circled, and the central ones should be lifted up.

This is how the finished roses will look.

If desired, the edges of rose petals can be painted with pastel. Also do not forget about decorative elements (beads, sparkles and much more). Using drops of glue on the surface of the flower, you can draw artificial drops of water.

We examined master classes for beginners. By following the instructions exactly, you can effortlessly make an original craft. If you don’t have a figured hole punch, you can make elements according to a pattern. In this case, it will take more time.

Some tips from experienced craftswomen

  • Do not keep the material under the iron for a long time. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures will ruin the foamiran.
  • If you want the product to look as natural as possible, use molds (forms to give the material a special texture).
  • Use a strong wire that will not break during the manufacture of crafts.
  • Instead of a glue gun, you can use ordinary glue, but if you are going to improve your skills in this skill, it is recommended to purchase this device.
  • Decorative elements can give the product charm and elegance, but their excessive amount will look rude.
  • Artificial stamens and other tools that you will need while working can be bought at any needlework store.
