Materials and tools

To enable you to surrender to your imagination and create flowers from tights with your own hands, we collect the necessary set of materials and tools in advance.

Kapron

The first and the main material from which, directly, the flower will be made - kapron.

Important! If suddenly you decide to buy a separate piece of fabric, you know, there is a special nylon for flowers on sale. It can be:

• monophonic;
• multicolor;
• two- or three-color;
• monophonic with gloss.

The average length of the segment is from 50 to 80 centimeters.

But recall that for these purposes you can take tights, socks, socks and other nylon things.

Important! If you need a different color, paint them lightly with acrylic paint.

Wire

You will also need two different types of wire:

• The first is a rigid wire for constructing stems. I apply it florists when creating compositions from artificial flowers. It has two subtypes - in a plastic winding and paper. Often found sizes - 30, 40, 60, 80 cm.
• To create petals you will need flexible wire of different shades. It is sold in segments of 80 centimeters, or in meters. Wire marking: numbers from 18( thick wire) to 30( thin).

Tape tape

Often used two colors - green and brown. Actually, they are used to connect flowers and leaves to stems.

Important! Keep the tape tape in a dark, cool place, putting on a slightly damp soft towel, preferably in a plastic bag.

Tools

To make flowers from pantyhose with your own hands, the list of tools will be as follows:

• pliers and round pliers;
• scissors and glue gun.

Important! These items will help you when connecting the flower.

Also find:

• templates - cylinders of different diameters for winding wires;
• cotton wool;
• strong threads under the main color of the flower.

Actually, that's all you need, now we'll start assembling.

Assembling the flower

If you have already practiced and know how to fold flowers from organza, repetitive or satin fabric, you can apply the acquired skills in the manufacture of beautiful handicrafts. A small, but significant difference - kapron petals or leaves is difficult to give the desired form. Therefore, this material is stretched onto the wire frame.

General technology:

1. The wire frame is twisted with a cylindrical shape of the correct size.
2. Then this ring is given the right shape - petal, leaf, sepals.
3. Next on the wire frame pull a piece of capron and fix it with threads.
4. The flower stem can be decorated with tapestry tape or floral paper.

In order to better understand all the intricacies and details of this process, let us consider specific examples.

Flower from the nylon:

1. The first step is making the blanks. We make a shape of a sheet of wire, we tighten it with a capron.
2. We rewind the bottom of the sheet with a thread for the color of capron.
3. Surplus material remaining below the winding, carefully cut off.

Important: Try to tighten the nylon neatly, avoiding the formation of a large number of wrinkles. In the same way do the petals.

1. We make the heart of a flower:
   • We create a stamen from wire and beads - this is the first option. The second option is a bit more complicated: fix a piece of paper napkin on the tip of the wire, covered with colored nylon.
   • To make the middle of the bud, take a small wooden or plastic stick( the tube for juice will do), wrap it with a paper napkin. We tighten the capron, fix it with a thread and fix the sepal.

1. Collect all the elements of the flower and connect them together.

Home Flower

Find the following materials and tools:

Instruction:

1. Measure two wires in length of 7-8 cm.
2. Twist among themselves just below the middle.
3. Obtain the resulting blank on the template number 2 and secure with pliers.
4. Make a shape in the form of a half heart. Bend the wire to the sides. You should get a workpiece that looks like a heart. These are the future petals of the flower.
5. For each workpiece pull nylon, fasten several turns of thread.
6. Excess nylon pruned with scissors.

Important! For one flower, you need 5 petals.

1. Cut the stamen in half, fix one part with a tape tape to the floristic wire.
2. Sponsoring the flower. To floristic wire with a stamen by means of a thread one after another we fasten petals.
3. The stalk is wrapped with a tape tape.
4. Harvest the leaves:
   • Wind the wire with small turns on the knitting needle.
   • Remove from the knitting needle, stretch it a little and form a circle on the template number 7.
   • The edges of the wire are twisted with pliers.
   • On Templates 2 and 3 we make smaller workpieces. In this case, the needle is not needed.
   • Fit the desired shape and pull the nylon and the stem is wrapped with a ribbon.
5. Using a thread to skewers attach 5 small flowers and one leaf. We wrap the skewer with tape and just below attach the 4 smallest leaves. Add wavy. The skewer can be replaced with a 2 mm floristic wire, if you have one.
6. In kashpo we cultivate a gypsum of the necessary consistency and place previously prepared twigs. We are waiting for full freezing.
7. Place the sisal in the flower pot immediately after hardening.
