On the eve of spring, we all dream of a warm day, waiting for the trills of birds to be heard under the windows, and spring flowers will appear on the flower beds and summer-resort areas. But to approach the approach of spring it is possible and independently, if at home there will be spring hand-made articles made by oneself. A variety of flowers from improvised materials can bring warmth and good mood to the house. In this article, we offer you several master classes that will help you learn how to make your own handiwork from paper on a spring theme. All you need is a set of colored paper, glue, scissors and a little patience.
Spring tulips
Since the first spring flowers are associated with tulips, this artifact made in origami technique is quite consistent with the chosen theme. To make a bouquet of tulips, we need a few sheets of green paper and the same number of sheets of red, yellow, white or orange paper, as well as glue and scissors.
- Let's start creating our craft, spring bouquet, with the formation of a bud of a tulip . To do this, bend the sheet of colored paper diagonally in half, then expand and fold again in half, but on the other diagonal. Similarly, make creases on paper by bending it in half. As a result, you should get a sheet, from the center of which there will be eight rays. Make four small incisions in four short beams.
- Lubricate one side of the notch with glue, and then form a semblance of the bowl, aligning the paper along the line of cuts. You will have a flower with sharp petals. Wait until the glue is completely dry.
- In the meantime, you can tackle the stalk. To create it, you need a sheet of green paper. Lubricate one side with glue, and roll the sheet into a tube. Then, using scissors, make five small incisions at the same end of the tube at the same distance from each other.
- Bend the paper aside, glue it with glue and glue the tulip. Similarly, make a few more colors to make a beautiful spring bouquet. This colorful spring composition will be a worthy decoration of the interior. Such a gift can be presented to my mother or girlfriend.
Hyacinths made of polyethylene
Another spring flower is the solar hyacinth. His surprisingly delicate terry inflorescence pleases the eye. And if you use conventional polyethylene bags to create such crafts, then it will be difficult to distinguish hyacinths from real ones.
We will need:
- cellophane packages of bright colors;
- Scotch;
- corrugated paper;
- skewers (plastic or wooden);
- scissors.
- Fold the bags in half, cut out of them a strip about 7-8 centimeters wide and 25-30 centimeters long. After that, cut one centimeter apart.
- Wrap the skewer with green corrugated paper, and then with a polyethylene strip with fringe, laying it from below. Instead of skewers, you can use a cocktail tube that can be bent to form a beautiful spring bouquet.
- Doing turns around the skewers, gradually descend lower in a spiral, forming an inflorescence of the hyacinth. Try to keep the central part of the inflorescence wider than the top and bottom.
- Fix the strip with fringe on the stem can be glue. If you want to add more greens, use paper tape or tape of the appropriate color. You can also cut out the leaves. At the hyacinth they are elongated, sharp and long, but when creating the craft, you can use teardrop or oval.
We hope that the ideas of spring crafts inspire you to create your own masterpiece!
