How to make an organza flower
Beginners should not immediately take on the creation of complex options. In order to make the simplest flower of organza, you need:
- draw patterns on the cardboard in the form of 5-6 circles, each of which is 3 mm smaller than the previous one;
- apply patterns to organza;
- circle with a pencil;
- cut out;
- light a candle;
- gently process the edges of the circles above the candle, holding them at right angles to the flame;
- to impose circles on each other;
- flash the petals with a thread;
- to fix;
- sew 2-3 beads in the middle of the organza flower or glue a few beads using a glue gun.
To make the product more attractive, you can cut the petals from the fabric of several similar shades. At the same time, it is better to make the largest circles from organza of a more saturated color, and gradually switch to paler ones.
Roses
The Queen of Flowers will be more difficult to make. For this:
- circles of different sizes are cut from organza;
- with sharp scissors make 5 neat cuts on each circle, not reaching the middle;
- singe the edges of all the blanks above the candle so that they bend inward;
- stack circles with already finished edges on top of each other in order from larger to smaller;
- fix them in the middle with a thread.
Decorate the middle of the resulting rose to your taste with rhinestones or beads.
How to create organza flowers with your own hands without using a candle
Carefully processing the edges of the workpieces so that they do not turn black, is often quite difficult. Usually this is due to the poor quality of the candles. In this case, the problem can be easily solved by replacing it.
In addition, in stores you can find a special organza for making flowers and use to create floral arrangements. It does not pour in, which greatly facilitates the work. If such fabric is not sold in your city, there is a way to create organza flowers without using a candle.
Step-by-step instruction
A beautiful, neat flower will turn out if:
- cut 5 circles from a regular organza with a diameter of 11 cm and the same number of such blanks with a diameter of 13 cm;
- fold them gently in the shape of a semicircle;
- Sew manually with a thread of a suitable color along the semicircular edge, retreating 5-6 mm;
- tighten and tighten the thread so that the workpiece takes the form of a petal;
- collect the petals of the same size in a ring so that you get 2 blanks in the shape of a flower;
- sew the blanks with thread;
- sew a large bead in the middle of the flower or stick a large strassik.
Such a flower can be fixed with a glue gun on an elastic band. Then you will get a beautiful decoration for the hairstyle.
