Kanzashi ties are current accessories. They will be a great addition to the school uniform of a boy or girl. Adult girls and women can also decorate their austere or romantic outfit with a stylish brooch. This article will discuss how to make a kanzashi tie with your own hands. The master class on creating an accessory for ladies is designed for needlewomen who are already familiar with this technique. A tie for a boy can make even a novice craftswoman.
Kansashi's complex: a tie for a girl or a frill for a real lady
You can present such a thing as a gift to a high school student, a student or to make it your favorite. The accessory should be worn with a classic blouse or shirt. Decide on the color scheme of the product. Traditionally, black and white is used for schoolgirls, but you can play with flowers and take pastel shades, for example, to match the skirt or shoes.
To work, you will need:
- rep ribbon in two colors 5.4 cm wide;
- satin ribbon in peas or with another ornament 4 cm wide;
- satin ribbon with a pattern 2.5 cm wide;
- candle or lighter;
- cabochon;
- felt;
- metal base for brooches;
- hot glue gun.
Take 2 pieces of light rep ribbon and with a pea ornament of 20 cm each. Lay a narrow section on a wide ribbon. Glue along the edges. Lock them in a ring and also lock. Sew both stitches in the middle.
From two lengths of 20 cm (light and dark), make the part in the shape of a butterfly. Tapes should be laid on top of each other, closed in a ring, fixed and pulled in the middle with a thread.
Make another simple detail: take 2 cuts 18 cm long and make a bow out of them. Connect a piece of the same tape 18 cm long into a ring and sew a few stitches in the middle.
Lay the first two blanks on top of each other, forming a bow, but not picking it up. Wrap it with a piece of patterned ribbon without tightening.
Wrap a bow with a picture and the same single piece, wrap a piece of the same color. Lay the blanks on top of each other and lock them.
Kansashi Petals
Cut the ribbon into peas into even squares. There should be 9 pieces. Take one, fold in half to form a triangle. Hold the top above the candle. Roll up the workpiece again. Holding it in the middle with your fingers, wrap one of the edges, starting from the center a few millimeters. Continue making harmonica until you use all the fabric. Turn the petal over and, by analogy, process the second part. Grasp the edge with tweezers and melt over the candle.
Make 9 such blanks. This technique is often used in the manufacture of accessories such as kanzashi ties.
Frill
Take three pieces of light rep ribbon. Their length should be one and a half times greater than the size of the first bow. Sew the blanks by folding them in half. Sew them together at an angle. Connect the petals with threads, creating a kind of “tongue”.
Product assembly
We pass to assembly. Each craftswoman makes kanzashi ties as she pleases. You can do this with hot glue or thread. Some prefer to use both types of fixation.
After combining the composition, cover the ugly back with a piece of felt. Glue or sew the base for the brooch. If glue is visible, then remove it while it is hot with tweezers. Then it will be much more difficult to do. Glue the cabochon. The accessory is ready. So you can make different kanzashi ties.
A little tip: if you want to sell your work, then try spinning the first few items in the centrifuge of the washing machine. Reliable fixation of elements is a sign of quality. After testing, the accessory must not lose its original appearance.
Kanzashi tie for a boy
In this master class, we will talk about how to make a bow tie using the kanzashi technique.
Instruments:
- soldering iron;
- scissors;
- ruler;
- threads
- needles;
- glue gun or Moment glue.
Materials:
- plain rep ribbon 20 cm;
- ribbon with a pattern of 19 cm and 6 cm.
Let's start with the manufacture of the smallest part - jumpers. Fold the tape in half, moving the seam to the center. Top and bottom go soldering iron.
Take a piece of the widest ribbon, fold it in half. Take a soldering iron around the edge. You will get a “loop” with a sealed end.
Fold a piece of ribbon with a pattern in half. This must be done to outline the middle. Spread it back. Now you need to form the sharp edges of the bow.
Bend the fourth part of the tape to create a right angle. Fold the piece, which is directed to the right, forming a tip in the shape of a triangle. Roll the bow in half and cut off the excess fabric with a soldering iron. The front of the butterfly is ready.
Butterfly-shaped kanzashi ties consist of two parts that now need to be joined. Sew the two blanks in the middle and pull the thread together.
Measure out a suitable piece of elastic and sew it into a ring. Attach a butterfly to it. On top, cover it with a jumper, and cut off the excess fabric with a soldering iron.
Learn to collect items in the kanzashi style. A tie for a girl or boy will decorate a strict school outfit. There is nothing complicated in the manufacture of accessories: you need a minimum of tools and materials and your imagination.
