The bouquet for the beautiful bride is ready.

For those brides who want to add some zest when creating their image, you can make a bouquet in this style. That is, to assemble it from ribbons and various ornaments. It can be ordered in special stores, or can be done right at home.

Such a technique appeared in Japan. It was used to create flowers that secure hair. And only a few years ago, on this principle, began to create bouquets for brides. After all, in the end they look very gentle and harmonious.

First you need to make the basis for the bouquet. To do this, you can use a frozen mounting foam, or just crumple the newspapers in a circle and wrap them with strong threads, pre-coated with glue.

In order to be able to attach a handle to the base, it is necessary to cut a small layer of the finished ball with a knife. In its middle, you need to make a hole of 3-5 centimeters. The handle itself can be made from chopsticks for sushi.

They must be placed in the center of the ball, which must first be smeared with glue. After the glue has dried, the sticks need to be wrapped very tightly with a rope. From above it is necessary to wrap everything with a fairly wide satin ribbon, while gluing it to the base. The edge of the ribbon can be attached with a beautiful large brooch or bead.

After that, you can start making flowers. To do this, you need to take two types of ribbons, which should be of different widths. One should be 60 millimeters in size, and the second should be 20 millimeters. You will also need beads or rhinestones, brooches and linen fabric.

Next, you need to determine how many flowers the bouquet will consist of. Then draw the same number of circles. After that, they need to be carefully cut and rolled into a conical tube. Then each blank must be flashed.

Next, you need to take the tape, which is narrower, and bending the edge, attach it to the folded tube, so that it does not reach the edge of the workpiece, and sew along the contour. Then you can begin to form the petals. You need to impose them at a right angle and immediately you need to sew each. When the first 4 petals are ready, the rest must be sewn at any angle. This must be done to the very edge of the cone, and the end of the tape must be sewn to the workpiece from the wrong side.

To make it, you need to take the tape, which will be wider, and then fold it two times, while making a bend of up to 4 millimeters. The base must be attached with a pin. After this, you need to take the part of the tape that is bent, and begin to fold the bud at any angle. Then again the tape is taken and at an angle of 30 degrees it is folded to the end. At the end of the work, the whole flower must be sewn from the wrong side.

When all the flowers are ready, you can begin to assemble the bouquet itself. To do this, you need pins with beads on the end. They need to attach each bud to the base. You need to do this so that it turns out to be beautiful and uniform. After that, it can additionally be decorated with beads, as well as beads or other decorative elements.

Wedding bouquets of artificial flowers are quite diverse. If you look at them, then the differences from the real ones may not be noticed. Indeed, modern technologies make them practically “alive”.

A bouquet made of satin ribbons will look very beautiful and modern.The combination of different colors allows you to use such a bouquet for weddings in different styles. In addition, such a bouquet will be light, which is very important for the bride. Each flower is decorated with beads of different sizes, which are combined with each other.

You can take ready-made artificial roses. For example, cream and pink flowers look rather harmonious. You can dilute them with branches of small white flowers. Such a bouquet will only emphasize the tenderness and beauty of the bride.

Having considered all the examples, we can conclude: an artificial bouquet will perfectly replace the present if necessary and will perfectly complement the bride’s outfit. Do not believe in prejudice; choose what you like, not what others advise.
