How to make a chrysanthemum

So today I will show you how to make a chrysanthemum of awesome stuff foamirana or plastic suede.

Required Material:

Pastel dry, in my case, two shades of yellow and green.
Scissors ordinary scissors with pointed tips, and you can take scissors and curly stationery knife.
Wire and teip tape or floral wire.
Glue gun and superglue.
Foil.
Wet wipes.
Basis for brooches or hairpins.
Iron.
Stacks or improvised materials (thin brush, hook or knitting needle).
Toothpick.
Patience, as the petals of more than 300 pieces.

Print out the pattern. Transferred to the paper size separately each petals encircle and cut. Copy only the left half of the circle III to VII numbers of petals. Apply a template to a brighter foamiranu and draw out a toothpick (or a sharp stick, or NEpishushey handle). Just five sizes lerestkov to 11 pc. I cut the entire petal scalloped scissors and then cut into narrow lobes. So quickly. But you can simply cut with scissors on the pattern. More light foamirana cut out a strip of 13h2 cm and two circle diameter of 4 cm and a green circle with a diameter of 6 cm. The green circle and strip incision narrow petals.

Toning petals. I picked up two yellow, dark and light. Circles, stripes and the smallest petals will be toned dark yellow. Pastel finely planed office knife, dipped into the chips damp cloth and paint petals. Petals are comfortable to hold for the area and paint from the center to the edges, unpainted area in the flower will not be seen. The next size petals toning already light yellow, but well stained. Following the petals are not so much paint, and at last a little tint tips. Green pasting little zatoniruem dark green.

Making the veins on a leaf. If not Mold, you can simply draw a toothpick. If the MDL is, putting a piece of iron to a couple of seconds and still hot pressed to the mold. Then, the leaves can be toned dark green pastel, then veins will be more visible.

Getting modeling petals. Apply a strip to the iron, the petals themselves skukozhivayutsya little and bent inwards. Small petals is also applied to the iron, then quickly on the palm and dent stick or stacked along the petal almost to the tips to form a depression in the ground. Stack of little curls around the axis in one direction and then in another direction, pressing the tab on the palm. Then heated area and also folded the petals inside it. And so four sizes of petals.

Biggest heat the petals not entirely, and by parts. Stronger drive stack from side to side, thereby thinning petal. Then add up each individual lepestochek half and carefully stretch the fold place, thus giving him a convex shape. Heat the corner, tuck into a petal. Green pasting also apply to iron and slightly twist the ends of your fingers.

Cut a piece of wire, make a loop on the end and stick to it a piece of foil. Foil rammed into a ball with a diameter of 2 cm. Heat the Melt. One of the yellow circle and glue smear middle of the circle to the ball, a little stretching. Cut a circle in the corners and glue the remaining pieces to the ball of foil. With the next yellow circle Do the same. It turns ball pasted two layers foamirana.

Take scissors with sharp edges and very carefully cut the top layer of a small corner. Then take a strip with petals and start to stick her in the middle of the ball, so that the edges of the petals converge at the top. Striped wrap twice around the ball, gradually podkleivaya glue. Middle, turned the flower.

Take the smallest petals, first try on them on top of the flower, retreating from the previous row by 1mm. Hold onto the hand turn over the ball, turn down corner and glue the petal from the corner to the middle of the petals, so he stuck to the edge of the strip in the previous row. Next petal glue around the circle, making the overlap on one small lepestochek. And so on.

Continue to glue the petals, just aligning the tips first, shifting them from the centre 1 mm and forming a tip, and then glue the bottom corner just a petal. And so, until all the petals are completed. Cut the wire close to the flower and green glue pasting, closing the lower part of the flower.

Middle leaves from the back side glue pieces of wire 10 cm long. If there is no floral wire, you can take an ordinary thin wire and wrap teip-tape. Careful turns stick with superglue. Then coated with glue and wire edge is glued to the leaves of the flower. The final stage – we take a basis for brooches or pins, I have a universal, well we coat it with glue from Melt and glued to the bottom of the flower.

That’s all. You can wear it! I wish you the autumn, full of love, warm colours and the smell of carnations …

Hello, I want to share with you how you can make a mandala in stained style myself, patience, imagination and materials. The main problem I encountered is to buy a square frame. You can of course do that on a rectangular (in my diary you will find different circuit complex and simple), but I wanted it square. From the materials you will need: stained glass paint, acrylic contours, acrylic paints for ceramics (for which the path is not needed), as well as the scheme itself mandala drawing printed on the desired format.

Printout placed under the glass some areas draw paints ceramics, some fill in the technique of “point by point”, some stroke a path and fill with stained glass paints. That is, do all that prompt your imagination. You can do some simple contours and colors of stained glass.

Beautiful Weave Mandala

I invite you to an entertaining lesson in the manufacture of Indian mandalas. We try to make decorative eight pointed Indian mandala made of wool and wooden sticks. Sit back, turn off the TV and radio, and supplies should be: arm rests, four sticks (I took the rod 25 cm long and 6 mm in diameter), a pair of scissors. More we do not need.

Putting two sticks together and bind them firmly in the middle of a double knot. Leave a small tail, which in the process will go under the braid.

Deploy sticks so that they form a straight cross. Be careful and make sure that the angle between the rods remained 90 degrees in the process of weaving. We fix sticks tightly wrapping them 6-7 times obliquely, first on one diagonal, then on the second. Check that the cross durable and sticks it move not.

And now begins the thread braid in a circle each stick. Draping string top, makes a complete revolution around the sticks, and when the thread once again be on top, toss it to the next stick. Do not forget the uniform tension. Scourge until you see what happens square. Make it as large a wish.

When you decide what size square enough, cut the thread with a small margin and tie it around that sticks, which begins with a square weave usually single node. On wooden sticks even a single node is kept pretty tight.

Then bind to the same or another stick thread of another color, leaving a small ponytail. And new colors start to move around again. When you get to the first rod, let under the braided ponytail remained there, after his little pulling. Let them do everything under the braided ponytails that will remain with you in the process of weaving.

When finished weaving a second color, fasten thread. The most simple – tie her with residual tail double knot.However, complex mandala, for example, shaped or therapeutic trudge all with just one unit – and the one at the end. And not a drop of glue!

And then the gossip the same square on the remaining two sticks. There is enough of the same color: it is barely visible in the mandala. The size should be exactly the same as the size of the first square or a few millimeters larger it.

The first step has been taken. Ahead – the most difficult: the socket. Rosette – a small sun, which is obtained at the beginning of weaving mandala and the quality of which depends on its strength and quality. Put two squares at each other evenly sticks and tie a string to one of the rods of the lower square.

Getting braid sticks thread THROUGH TWO. That is, the thread passes under the mandala, grabs a stick from the previous two, revolves, and again goes under the mandala to the next stick in two. Initially, the mandala can not hear, “walk”. Your task – to make a full circle, back to where started, after which the correct squares to each other in all planes. Make as many laps as you want, but do not forget during the weaving sticks correct relative to each other in all planes.

Here’s how it will look from the inside. Pattern, which is obtained by weaving “two” is called “rays”. And all of this composition – the socket. When finished weave this color fasten thread.

Tie to stick color and begin to weave them.

On the reverse side will be obtained this way. After finishing a dark green color, I wove a few rows of light green.You can use as many colors as you want.

We prepared socket – the hardest thing in the entire mandala. Now proceed to the relaxed side netting – a square.Squares weave, almost like rays through only one stick. It turns out that we weave is square on the top cross, then on the bottom, as in the beginning. Tie one of the rods of the lower square thread of the new color and begin to weave through a wand. Finished color – fasten the thread knot

Weave square exactly the same width, but on the upper cross. Can choose a different color.

We starting to get here is such a beautiful flower.

Add a couple of squares of different colors. I decided to stay at the purple, but you can add more colors.

Add more flowers as you see fit, but be sure to leave at least one-quarter of sticks to weave them the final element of the mandala – a belt.

Wrong Side of the mandala. Getting Chain Belt. Tie a string to a stick, and any sequence begins braid sticks around. This is perhaps the easiest of the mandala patterns.

Finish one color, skip to the next. After several rows of light green, I added a row of blue and completed times are dark green.

Well, the last fixing pattern. We stayed neopletennye ends about an inch long sticks. Tie one of the sticks thread, kototoraya will complete color chord in the mandala.

It will be a kind of belt in a row. Loop the thread to the next stick and wrap it to the end, up to the top and then back down to the bottom and wrap the thread perekin’te further.

Going round the circle completely and shook the ends of rods, tie a string to the tail of the same color and make the tails of the loop.
