It is necessary
- - chiffon of any color;
- - threads;
- - a needle;
- - scissors;
- - pencil;
- - lighter;
- - beads.
Instructions
Step 1
Take a piece of chiffon fabric, turn it face down, and then draw 20-22 circles of different diameters on the material. The diameter of the first circle is about seven centimeters, the diameter of the second is 6.7 centimeters, the third is 6.5 centimeters, etc. The diameter of the last circle should be about two centimeters. Cut the resulting shapes. It is worth noting that it is advisable to draw circles "by hand", in this case the finished decoration will look more like a living flower.
Step 2
Pick up one of the previously cut circles and use a lighter (or candle) to lightly scorch the edges of the workpiece (this is required so that the threads do not diverge, and also so that the edges of the workpieces are slightly squeezed). Thus, singe the edges of each circle, and in order not to burn yourself, you can hold them with tweezers.
Step 3
Put the largest circle in front of you with the curved edges up, on top of it put a circle of a slightly smaller diameter, then a circle of even smaller diameter, and so on, until the prepared circles end. After the flower is collected, take a needle and thread in the color of chiffon and carefully sew the middle of the flower, thereby fastening all its layers together.
Step 4
The final stage of creating a flower is the design of its core. To do this, take one large bead or several small ones and use a needle and thread of a suitable color to sew them to the middle of the flower. It is worth noting that when using a large bead, you can simply glue it onto super glue. The chiffon flower is ready, now it only remains to attach it to an elastic band, hairpin or headband.
