When you need large flowers made of paper to decorate a room or the facade of a building, wood or arch, it is best to make them yourself. Workshops for making such jewelry are presented here to users.
Large large paper flowers with a stapler
You can make such decorations very quickly. To make them you need thick colored paper. You can use whatman, pre-painted with paints, or colored cardboard for children's creativity. To make the large flowers of paper more vibrant, it is recommended not to do the monophonic craft. Let each petal be immediately red, and yellow, and blue, and orange.
- First cut the lower petals, the largest.
- Then they prepare three others, from different colors and smaller ones.
- Parts are stacked as the size decreases, the smallest should be on top.
- In order for such large flowers of paper to become voluminous, the bottom of the entire stack of petals is folded with a boat and fastened with a stapler.
- Four more details are drawn up in the same way. In total, to make a large flower out of paper, you need five such voluminous petals.
- Each part is again fastened with a stapler at the bottom, capturing the side of the adjacent petal.
Such large paper flowers look beautiful and bright. They are used to decorate walls, create arches.
Corrugated paper flowers without petals
You can make a large flower out of paper by making ordinary small blossoming buds. That is, the master folds the material around the stem with an accordion and clamps the strip below, straightening the upper part of the product.
To make these voluminous large flowers made of paper brighter, several shades should be used in the manufacture of one craft. You can even combine blue and red material, purple and pink, orange and burgundy.
- A piece of fluffy wire (chenille) is placed in the center of the flower . Bright beads are fixed at its ends. In the middle of a piece of chenille they wrap a stalk - a thick wire or a wooden skewer. It will be stamens.
- Now, around the stamens, the first layer of paper is laid out with a skirt. You can fix the workpiece by wrapping the bottom with threads or soft wire.
- The second layer of paper is laid in the same way, only the upper edge of the strip needs to be slightly stretched along the corrugation. This will create a magnificent effect.
- Do the same with the third row.
- At the very end of the work, a row of green paper is used. Only the strip needs to be taken very narrow - these will be sepals.
Astra, cornflower, clove
The method described above is an example of making a fantasy flower. However, asters, carnations, cornflowers do almost the same thing. The difference is that before you work, a strip of corrugated paper needs to be prepared.
You should make one of its edges serrated, using special scissors or cutting triangles manually. You can make transverse cuts in the strip to the middle.
Flower bow
You can use stylized imitation of flowers for decoration. Such a large flower made of paper is made of loops made of colored stripes.
The petal is folded quite simply. A section of a wide strip is bent in half across, but the bend point does not need to be ironed. Isn’t it that a petal resembles a half ribbon bow?
Both ends of the strip are in one place. They are squeezed and laid around the stem. Having collected the necessary number of petals, the master fixes them at the bottom with threads or wire.
Sepals are made in the same way as in the above embodiment.
Paper Dahlia
According to the algorithm of making a flower-bow, you can build an imitation of dahlia. To do this, at the time of folding across the paper strips, equity cuts are made below. They should be equal to about three quarters of the length of the folded loop and not reach the cut so that the petal does not fall apart. The rest of the work is performed as described in the previous section.
Corrugated Paper Rose
The queen of the flower garden has always been considered a beautiful rose. This is one of the most difficult crafts. In order to make flowers out of paper (large or small - it doesn’t matter), resembling a rose, you will need to cut out each petal and work on it.
- So, they prepare the right amount of heart-shaped parts with a slightly flattened top - do not sharpen it, let it be better to have a concave arc.
- Each petal should be slightly stretched in the middle, giving it a convex shape.
- The upper parts protruding above the concave arc are wound on a pencil - twisted.
- The inner bud is usually not open for roses. Therefore, it is better to twist the first petals inward. Folding them with palms, you can get an unopened inner bud. In the same way, it is recommended to lay a couple more petals.
- The next row is made of parts twisted outward. To make a large volumetric flower from paper look as similar as possible to a real one, a lot of such petals will be required. The more there are, the more magnificent and attractive the rose will come out.
- The flower bottom has sepals. Wrap the stalk with green tape. For lack of such a roll of green corrugated paper can be cut across so as to produce a thin roll about a centimeter wide. After gluing its end to the stem under the flower, the craft itself is taken in the left hand and twisted lightly clockwise. With the thumb of the right hand, they press and pull lightly a strip of green paper. Each turn goes down a little spiral. Thus, the entire stem is wrapped.
- You can insert a green leaf during winding - this will give a big resemblance to a rose with a real living flower.
Rose "non-waste"
You can simplify the work of making the Queen of Flowers. This method eliminates the cutting of each petal individually. It is simple enough to make transverse notches equal to the width of the petal on a wide strip of corrugated paper. Each straight corner of a rectangle from a strip is wound in a known manner on a pencil. The first four petals twist inward, the rest outward.
Then you should stretch the petals in the middle - each individually. Lay everything on the prepared strip around the stem, spreading the petals and squeezing the strip from below with an accordion, giving the product the necessary volume.
Further design of the crafts is carried out in accordance with the algorithm described above.
Pleated Petal Poppy
This flower is easy enough to make. To make it, you need to cut petals out of colored rather thick paper that resemble drops in shape. It will take only eight of these details. The petals are folded along the accordion, then straightened.
Glue the blanks onto a small green circle - sepals - slightly picking up the lower part so that they rise above the plane. The first row consists of five parts, and the second of three. Moreover, the inner layer should rise above the outer.
For the middle of the flower, you need to cut two circles: yellow should be slightly larger than black. The yellow details make a lot of incisions around the circumference to make centimeter-wide stamens. They curl with scissors (ironing with force) or a pencil. The middle is glued alternately: first the yellow part, and the black on top.
Briefly about the main thing
To make the flowers beautiful and lush, the master will require accuracy and desire. Bright materials will also do the trick. And the master classes published here will help beginners complete the presented models.
