Weaving a wreath is an old fascinating activity. Many traditions and traditions are associated with them. Everyone, especially a girl, can and should master the simple skill of weaving a wreath. After all, it is so interesting to decorate the head, your own or a child's, with a "live" headband during outdoor recreation. Or it may happen that you make a folk costume for some kind of holiday and crown your head with a crown of flowers.
It is necessary
To weave a wreath, you will need different flowers on long stems (at least 15-20 cm). The longer the stem, the stronger the wreath will turn out. Flowers can be used natural or artificial. Flowers of one or more varieties are used, you can also add grass to make the wreath voluminous and interesting. You will also need threads or long, thin grass
Instructions
Step 1
Disassemble the herbs and flowers prepared for the wreath by varieties and put them in a row, in the order in which you would like to see them in your wreath.
Step 2
Remove excess leaves from the stems so that the base of the wreath is not too thick and uneven.
Step 3
Weaving begins with three or four plants. They are folded side by side and braided into a braid. The braid can be braided over the entire length of the stems or only 5-6 weaves can be made in order to fasten them together. This is a "frame" of a wreath of flowers.
Step 4
Next, start braiding the rest of the flowers and herbs to the base. Take a flower, attach it to the base from the outside of you.
Step 5
Flip the stem from bottom to top, then from right to left around the bud (inflorescence).
Step 6
Grab the remaining length of the stem in one pile with the stem.
Step 7
Weave the next plant in the same way. It turns out that each subsequent plant attaches the previous one to the base.
Step 8
When the wreath is long enough, braid the unbraided ends of the stems.
Step 9
Connect the first and last flowers by folding the wreath in a circle, then fasten the wreath with a long blade of grass (or thread), gently entangling it in a spiral around the entire circumference. And so on until all the ends of the stems settle down exactly.
