You can make a lot of useful and beautiful things from old knitted T-shirts. For example, such cute flower hair ornaments for young fashionistas.
It is necessary
- - knitted fabric
- - thread-elastic band or silk threads
- -glue
- - fleece or felt
- -rubber
- -barrette
Instructions
Step 1
Cut the fabric into strips. Keep in mind that the wider and longer the strip of fabric, the larger the flower will be. For a large flower, cut off a strip of about 3x20 cm in size, and for small ones - 1.5x15 cm.
Step 2
Next, we thread an elastic thread into the sewing machine and begin to sew a zigzag seam from one corner. Don't make the zigzag too narrow. To make the flower beautiful, it is better to make a wider zigzag. You should straighten the seam with your fingers, otherwise it will "shrink". If you do not have an elastic thread, you can sew the seam with ordinary silk threads, and then carefully pull the thread.
Step 3
Now we grease the tip of the stitched fabric with glue and begin to form a flower. Just gently twist the fabric in a circle without pulling too tightly. Glue in places with glue so that the flower does not fall apart. We glue the tip of the fabric under the flower.
Step 4
We make other flowers in the same way. Then we cut out an oval base from fleece or felt and glue flowers on it. We also cut out the leaves and glue them too.
Step 5
Now we measure the required length of the elastic and glue it to the base.
Step 6
To make a hair clip, glue the flower to the felt base, and then a click-clack hairpin to it.
