Instructions
Step 1
To create an applique, you can use a variety of fabrics, pieces of leather, felt, fur, as well as paper. The created element can be of any size and color.
Prepare the item to be decorated. Draw a sketch or reduce the drawing you like through tracing paper from a magazine, book or postcard. Cut out all the details of the drawing along the contour. The pattern is ready. Select the material to create the appliqué. The composition can successfully combine different textures and colors.
Step 2
Fabric applique.
Cut out the appliqué details from the fabric. Fold your chosen combination of parts on the surface of the object to be decorated. Now you can imagine what the finished product will look like. Secure the applique with pins. Sketch out every detail with a pencil or crayon.
Unfasten one of the elements and apply PVA glue to the wrong side. Glue the piece in place. Do the same with all other parts of the applique. Make sure the edges are tightly glued. Press them down or put a load on top so that they do not bend in the future.
Step 3
There is also a method for gluing fabric with plastic wrap. Cut out an exact duplicate of the composition details. Place the tape between the object to be decorated and the appliqué details. Fasten the details with pins or sew with a few stitches. Iron the resulting structure with a hot iron: first from the front side, then from the wrong side. Make sure that the fabric does not wrinkle or shrink.
Decorate the composition with cord, yarn, pieces of fur. Glue these elements on PVA glue. You can also add rhinestones, beads, sequins, beads to the applique.
Step 4
Paper applique.
The paper can be glued to paper, wood, plastic or metal surfaces. Prepare the sketch and the object that you want to decorate with the applique. With a thin layer of PVA glue, lubricate the surface of the selected product inside the outlined contour. Take one piece and cover the inside with glue as well. If the paper is thick, take your time to glue it, the glue should absorb into it a little. Wait 30-60 seconds and press the part against the product. Glue the rest of the elements in the same way. Blot the top with a soft cloth. Do this carefully so as not to damage the product. The application is ready.
One has only to start creating an applique, as it will entail a flight of design ideas, and you can create many interesting things. Go for it!
