Flowers from tulle with their own hands

Flowers always create a feeling of celebration and solemnity, they can cheer up and decorate any outfit or interior. And, this does not necessarily apply to live flowers, original artificial specimens also cope with a similar task. How do you get the idea to make tulle flowers from your hands? If you like, then we offer to your attention a master class "Flower from tulle".

For work you will need:

  1. To make an original flower of tulle with your own hands, you need to cut from the paper and tulle the same rectangles. Their size depends on how the flower should turn out, in this case the product will be quite voluminous, so the details are taken with the proportions of 40cm x 25cm. In total we will prepare six rectangles - two fatty and four paper (you can use paper of different colors).
  2. We stack all six rectangles on each other: tatty on top, paper bottom. And, if the paper is of different shades, the darkest should be at the bottom. Now we add all the details to the accordion at the same time. The distance from the fold to the fold can vary, in this case it is approximately 2 cm.
  3. When the whole accordion is folded, bend it in half and tie it around the center with a strong thread. The ends of the thread can not be cut, if then the flower is planned for something to hang or tie, for example, to curtains or a gift box. On the contour, cut off the corners on each bend, so that the flower later gets an interesting shape.
  4. The case for small, it remains to find out how to make a flower from tulle from the resulting billet. First we spread one half and start gently lifting layer by layer upward. Due to the fact that tulle refers to medium hardness fabrics, it holds the shape well, is fixed and allows to make the flower bulk.
  5. When all the layers of tulle are spread, go to the paper, also lift the layer by layer, form the petals. The same thing we do with the other half.

The flower is ready! This work takes quite a bit of time, and the effect of the result exceeds all expectations. In case you need flowers not for decoration, but, for example, flowers from tulle on a dress or an elegant flower from tulle on your head can be fantasized, taking this master class as a basis. Suppose you can replace the paper with lace or collect the entire flower from tulle in different shades.
