DIY fabric flowers

04.01.2022

Good afternoon has begun, and we, in turn, are starting a new series of articles “Flowers from fabric on a dress - simply and quickly.” I create this cycle not only for mothers of little girls, but for all those who want to decorate an owl's dress with an elegant three-dimensional fabric flower.

Today I will tell and show how to make a magnificent carnation flower from fabric. Here's one.

Yesterday I wrote an article about sewing a children's prom dress decorated with such a carnation. So, if you liked the dress in the photo, and you want to sew one for your daughter or for yourself (this dress model is universal, it will also suit an adult girl), then you are welcome to the article, where I showed in detail how from scratch to the last seam sew your own prom dress. And then you can return to this article and make this lush fabric flower yourself according to the following master class.

Before describing the process, I will focus on the fabric. It is better to choose a thinner fabric for carnations (thin tulle, delicate organza, satin, silk, etc.) - the same fabric from which you made the dress will do. But keep in mind, if you take a thick fabric for a carnation, then for one element of the inflorescence you need to take not three circles, but one is enough.

Now you will understand everything - here in the pictures I will show how everything is made of thin fabric.

We make inflorescences for a flower from fabric.

We will need to make 7 carnation inflorescences. For each inflorescence, you need to cut 3 circles from the fabric - if the fabric is thin. If the fabric is not very thin, then 1-2 circles are enough for the inflorescence.

The radius of the circle is arbitrary. What length do you want to see the petals of the carnation - the radius of the circles will be the same length. They are easy to draw on fabric - if you circle a small glass, glass or cream lid.

The inflorescence of a carnation is made simply - we put three circles of fabric in a stack on top of each other (Fig. 2). We take a needle and thread and sew the circles folded together through and through - so that the seam is in the form of a circle in the center of the stack of our disks (Fig. 3). Now (without making a knot) we tighten the thread, and our fabric disks themselves fold into an inflorescence bud (Fig. 4).

The tighter you tighten the thread, the more elastic the receptacle ("butt") of our fabric inflorescences will be. I do not tighten it very much - so that later I can give the receptacles a flat shape where I need (when they are fixed to each other).

In this way we make 7 inflorescences.

We put the inflorescences in a lush fabric flower.

Now we will lay them in a magnificent carnation of fabric. Everything is shown in the picture below. First, we put 2 inflorescences perpendicular to each other - we fix them by the “ass” with a thread with a needle. Then we add the third inflorescence - we also fix it, then the fourth. The inflorescences lie on their sides - each looks in its own direction as if by a compass - north, east, south, west.

These four inflorescences can be sewn not so tightly to each other - but leave a hole in the center (like a hole in a bagel). Then we will insert three other buds into this hole, ruffles to the top.

We lay the remaining three inflorescences on top of this base - so that they look up with their ruffles. We also lay them in turn - I fix each with stitches inside at the base. It turned out to be a pretty lush flower. All fixing seams are hidden in the petals of the fabric.

Now it remains only to sew a satin ribbon to the wrong side, and you can attach it to the dress.

There are also two ways to attach such a flower made of fabric to a dress - either sew a flower with threads - so that it is permanent and forever (of course, I turned down about “forever” - it will be possible to rip it off when you want).

Or another option. Take a pin of such a size that it can withstand the weight of the flower. And attach the pin to the fabric flower - that is, sew its pin back to the wrong side of the flower with ordinary threads. To keep the fabric flower on the pin even, not drooping upside down, the pin must be sewn not in the center of the flower, but a little higher - closer to the upper edge of our voluminous flower appliqué.

Good luck with your tailoring.

step-by-step master class on making, photo and video

It is difficult to imagine a wedding ceremony and a celebration without flowers: they are an indispensable component of the bride's bouquet and groom's boutonniere, they decorate cars and the banquet room with their help. But sometimes living plants are not able to endure too hot or cold weather, and temperature changes adversely affect their appearance. In the article, you will learn what an alternative is, how to make fabric flowers with your own hands so that they look beautiful on your wedding day and remain in memory of a joyful day without losing their original appearance.

Master class on making artificial flowers from organza

Artificial flowers look charming, in the manufacture of which organza was used. This is due to the frequency of using the material when sewing a wedding dress, which means that the accessory will go well with the bride's outfit. In addition, the fabric is very comfortable and pliable in work, which will facilitate the process of creating a masterpiece, and a variety of color shades makes it possible to choose colors that best suit the decoration of the celebration.

Necessary materials

In order to make organza flowers, you will need:

Organza. The color of the fabric depends on the preferences of the bride and the theme, style of the wedding. To create an interesting composition, materials of different shades can be used. If it is impossible to find organza, chiffon or satin will do.
Sewing accessories - needle, thread, wire.
Beads, beads for decoration.
Candle, matches.
Paper needed for drawing patterns and sketches.

Stages of creation

A detailed master class will help you learn how to make fabric flowers with your own hands:

We are preparing patterns for future buds. To do this, draw several circles of different diameters on paper. To make the circles as even as possible, you should use glasses of different sizes or other round objects. After drawing, cut out the elements and transfer to the fabric. Using ready-made templates, we cut out several circles of each diameter from organza - we got petal blanks.

Light a candle. Bringing each petal, melt the edges a little. In order to determine how far from the fire to keep the fabric, practice on unnecessary segments. Small details should be singeed, holding them with tweezers so as not to burn your hands.

Let's start assembling. It is better to start with the lower petals of a large size, gradually adding the rest. The middle should be decorated with beads or beads, sewn on or strung on a wire. The organza peony is ready.

To create an organza rose, it is necessary during the first stage to make five shallow cuts on the finished fabric mug. When processing parts with fire, it is important to ensure that all the petals are twisted in one direction, then the bud will look neat and beautiful.

Simple decorative ribbon flowers

On the eve of the wedding, many brides think about how to sew, make fabric flowers so that they look beautiful, complement existing accessories and jewelry, harmoniously combined with them. Often the problem is the lack of necessary materials, skills and experience in creative work. But in order to create amazing exclusive flowers from ribbons, you do not need special equipment or great skill. The main thing is a little patience and imagination, and a detailed master class will help you realize all this, create a real masterpiece with your own hands.

Necessary materials

In order to make buds from ribbons, you will need:

Satin ribbons in two colors (main and for leaves). Particular attention should be paid to the width of the tapes - the wider and longer it is, the larger and more voluminous the product will be.
Threads, needle.
Optionally, beads or rhinestones can be used for decoration.

Stages of creation

Consider two options for how to make beautiful fabric flowers, both are simple, but the result will surely please, and ready-made accessories will serve as an excellent decoration. Master class number 1:

We cut off a satin ribbon of the required width, 50 cm long. We wrap one edge to make a triangle.

We fold a small corner and fasten it with a needle and thread.

We collect the tape on a thread, folding it to make a beautiful "accordion". How to do it right, look at the photo.

Having collected the entire tape, it must be wrapped around the base, forming a beautiful rose. Secure everything with a thread so that the composition does not fall apart.

To create a leaflet, cut a ribbon 10 centimeters long, fold both ends into the middle, forming a triangle. Sew and tighten the triangle at the base. The leaf is ready. To create a beautiful composition, at least two leaves are needed for one flower.

We connect the flower with the leaves - the masterpiece is ready.

Master class number 2:

We cut off a satin ribbon 35 centimeters long. We bend the edge away from ourselves and begin to twist the flower. We fix the base with a thread, not reaching the fold line.

We bend the tape towards ourselves, forming a petal. We continue to twist the rose, wrapping the ribbon towards us.
We sew the end of the tape from the inside out, fastening all the layers with a thread so that they do not fall apart.

By analogy, we make the required number of flowers, from which we will make an accessory or decoration. Such textile accessories are perfect for creating a wedding topiary.

Large fabric flowers using kanzashi technique

Fabric flowers made using the kanzashi technique are original and beautiful. Such accessories can be small and can be used to decorate a wedding dress, a bride's hair band or guests' boutonnieres. If desired, in this way you can make a large flower that will decorate the wedding cortege, banquet hall. The advantage of this technique is the ability to make a flower of absolutely any color, size, without spending a lot of effort and money.

Necessary materials

To make a flower using the kanzashi technique, you will need:

Satin ribbon. A large flower requires a wide ribbon. In order to get a multi-colored masterpiece, it is worth buying material of different shades, the golden elements in the product look good.
Glue gun, Moment-Crystal glue.
Thread, needle, scissors.
For decoration - beads, beads, rhinestones, small decorative ornaments in the form of insects (butterflies, ladybugs).
Cardboard or ball, cellophane bag.

Stages of creation

Two methods can be used to create large kanzashi-style flowers, we will consider both so that everyone can choose the most suitable and simple option for themselves. Master class number 1:

We cut the satin ribbon 7 cm long. Fold it in half and cut it at an angle with a soldering iron.

On the other hand, we wrap the tape in the opposite direction, singe the edge, due to which the two ends of the tape are connected. We make the required number of blank petals, which depends on the desired size of the flower.

We take cardboard and draw a circle along which we will glue the petals. The larger the diameter, the larger the accessory will turn out as a result. Glue all the petals around.

The second option for creating kanzashi involves creating a large, round, convex flower:

The ball is covered with a plastic bag. The size of the finished product depends on the diameter of the ball.
We make petals that will serve as the basis of the product.
We connect seven finished petals with a thread and a needle into a circle, fix it. It turns out a small flower, which we attach to our ball in the center.
Next, glue the petals, placing them between the elements of the previous row.
We glue one more element to the petals of the first row, and two more on each side to the details of the third.
By analogy, we glue the remaining petals until we get a flower of the desired size.
We remove the ball and the plastic bag, our masterpiece is ready.

A step-by-step video tutorial on how to create a lily with your own hands

In wedding floristry, the lily is used quite often, because this flower symbolizes innocence, tenderness, purity. But if live lilies are out of season or you want them to be preserved after the celebration, a great option is to make them from fabric. Even girls who first decided to plunge into the world of creativity and have not dealt with sewing or other needlework will be able to make such an accessory. To understand how to make a fabric lily flower, watch the video with a detailed guide to action:

Dresses with voluminous flowers | Needlework

Since ancient times, flowers have emphasized tenderness and beauty, giving a unique look to any outfit.

Flowers adorn hairstyles, hats, decorate the bodices of dresses or enliven the skirts of elegant toilets.

In the clothing collections of European designers, fabric flowers have already taken a strong place as a way to emphasize femininity and beauty.

Fabric flowers are used not only to decorate clothes, but also for accessories and jewelry.

Fabric flowers can be created realistic or fantasy - lush roses and chrysanthemums, delicate lilies and irises, scarlet poppies, snow-white daisies.

Cut out several layers of different sizes from the fabric.

Make sure that the flower petals are bent to one side. The best way to do this is to hold the flower above the flame, lowering it carefully and watching the petals swirl.

When the edges of all the flowers are processed, we collect them into finished flowers. To do this, we insert smaller flowers into large ones like nesting dolls in descending size. You get two of these flowers.

We select the central bead and sew it into the middle, while fastening all our flowers in the middle into one voluminous flower.

Then we select small beads or beads and sew them around the central bead

You can arrange fabrics with different textures and colors. The main thing is that they look harmoniously together.

If, instead of the shape of a flower, just cut out circles from the fabric and also process their edges with a candle, then you can collect a flower of a different shape.

Examples of dresses decorated with fabric flowers:

Belt with flowers in country style

Belt with flowers.

From small scraps of fabric such as lace, tulle, organza, and a few pretty pearl or crystal beads, you can create your own fancy belt.

Below are a few options for the design of the belt. You can use one of them, supplement or somehow change.

The basis for the belt is a traditional two-sided, wide satin ribbon.

Take some time to cut out the petals from the fabric of your choice. Get creative with the petal shapes, fabric combinations, and patterns. Flowers should be grouped in a bouquet on the belt. This way they look more natural.

And here is the sequence of applying colors to the belt.

To create a relief edge of the petals, use a burning candle.

You can also use a couple of mesh and lace petals, do not melt, just cut out. In the example, 18 circles of different sizes were used for the central flower, the largest being 12 cm in diameter (before melting).

For fluffy flowers, you can fold some of your circles in half or quarters.

Sew the petals in the center to secure the shape. Sew on beads and pearls. Arrange the flowers on the satin ribbon close together and secure with pins.

For creativity, cut three leaves from a coarser fabric and insert them under the flower petals.

Cut out thin feathers from the remnants of the satin ribbon, singe the edges, insert under the petals. After the bouquet is completely ready, sew it to the ribbon.

DIY fabric flowers

The abundance of fashionable and affordable ways to decorate clothes and interior details creates great opportunities for creative self-realization, but often there is not enough time for frills or the decoration object does not require or is not worth the enormous cost of serious design. It is in such cases that ingenuity comes to the rescue and what is popularly called "grandmother's secrets" - elements that are easy to perform and made in a matter of minutes.

Plants using the “appliqué” technique have long become a familiar way of decorating clothes and accessories. A voluminous application will help to diversify a boring scheme, with which you can decorate the edge of the neckline of a dress, the hem of a coat or a handbag. Volumetric flowers look spectacular if they are asymmetrically located on only one side of the product (for example, on the shoulder).

To decorate clothes with convex flowers you will need:

When planning to make do-it-yourself convex fabric flowers, it is best to choose a fabric whose edge does not fray when trimmed. The loose edge should be processed with curly scissors and leave a hem allowance.

As a basis for convex plants, it is better to use dense matter that is not prone to deformation.

Embroidery ribbons

Within the framework of the art of embroidery, there is a separate decorative direction, which involves the creation of paintings from ribbons sewn to the base. This is quite painstaking and difficult work, but according to this principle, you can decorate clothes even without experience.

You will need ribbons with a width of:

3 cm;
2 cm;
1 cm;
a circle of fabric for the base;
beads.

The optimal material for the manufacture of such flora are satin ribbons or plain braid. Organza ribbon will also give a great result, but you need to adapt to working with it.

The ribbons are stacked one on top of the other so that their longitudinal axes coincide.
With a basting stitch, the ribbons are gathered together and slightly gathered.
The bud is formed in a spiral and is attached with pins to a round base. It remains only to sew on the inflorescence, hide the unsightly ends of the ribbons and the decor with fabric flowers is ready.

This method can be used by creating not only lush buds on the fabric, but also textured ornaments, and having “filled your hand” you can abandon the fastener (base) and form a pattern on the product.

Volumetric printed decorations

Not limited to finishing clothes and accessories, you can make jewelry from fabric flowers - a necklace, beads or a bracelet. This idea, which is simple in terms of production technology, is based on the principle of sewing soft toys from two or more parts.

To make one printed flower you will need:

kapron or dense (stretching) fabric;
synthetic winterizer;
decorative thread or thin lace;
buttons;
attachments for jewelry (clasps, chain, connecting rings).

According to the template, you need to cut out two identical flowers from the fabric.

Fold wrong sides out and sew along the edge (not forgetting to leave a gap for filling with padding polyester).
Turn product right side out and stuff.
Sew up the technological hole.
Rewind with a decorative thread crosswise in the recesses between the petals and decorate with buttons.
Sew on connecting rings and fasten on a chain or, using pieces of a chain, sequentially connect several flowers into a complex decoration.

When working with nylon, you need to process its edge with a candle due to the tendency of the fabric to excessive shedding. Since you can make flowers from fabric that stretches well and strongly by pulling it with a tourniquet, there is no need to cut complex shapes - you can cut two circles from nylon.

Rope rose

To decorate belts, headbands and other accessories, roses from a tourniquet or strips of fabric are often used. The fastening of such structures is done manually with a seam over the edge or with glue.

Bend a strip of fabric 5 cm wide in half along the longitudinal side with the wrong side out and stitch.
Turn right side out (it is important that the seam does not twist).
Slightly gather with a basting seam and sew to the product along the edge of the connecting seam.
To decorate a handbag or hair ornament, the sewn edge (after forming a flower with pins) is smeared with glue and connected to the base.

A tourniquet or a thick decorative cord is immediately glued to the product during the formation of an inflorescence. For reliability, the cord is sewn to the base around the perimeter.

Knitwear decor

In most cases, to create fabric flowers, the master class requires a lot of step-by-step illustrations. You can make simple but expressive plants for decorating knitwear from any dense and rather thick fabric that is not prone to shedding - felt and or fleece.

You can make two types of flowers - terry and simple with curved petals.

For the first, you will need a long strip of fabric 4-6 cm wide, folded in half and stitched along the connecting edge (you do not need to turn it inside out).
The resulting element should be folded in a spiral and sewn to the product from the side of the junction of the layers (i.e. the place of the fold of the matter forms the front part) - you get a rosette resembling a rose from a tourniquet.
Using scissors, you need to make cuts in 0.3-0.5 cm increments to create inflorescence petals.

To make a textured flower with petals, you need to cut 6 petals from the fabric (in this case, the base of the petal should be straight). Make an opposite fold on each and collect into a bud with a needle and thread.

The middle of the flower can be decorated with beads or a bright button.

The leaves in such compositions are sewn to the product along the longitudinal axis.

space flowers

Inflorescences, whose silhouette is formed using folds of material, can be used to decorate clothes, furniture covers, clutches and handbags. These elements are based on a circle and are good because they have a minimum volume and practically do not lose their appearance after washing.

For manufacturing you will need:

rigid woven dublerin;
decorative matter;
thread;
bead or button.

When choosing dublerin, it is better to get as hard as possible with an adhesive side.

According to the template from dublerin, you need to cut out a base circle.
The radius of each inflorescence is cut out 2 times larger than the base, so that the decorative material covers the doubler on both sides.
If the decorative material is prone to shedding, then it must be cut with curly scissors with a margin of 0.5 mm per hem.
Doublerin is placed in the middle of the inflorescence blank from the wrong side and ironed through gauze so that the two fabrics stick together.
The allowance is ironed on the wrong side.
The fabric is gathered to the center, fastened with a thread and decorated with a bead or a button.

You can fix such a flower on the product by stitching it along the contour.

It is important to remember that the decor will last a long time not only due to the absence of complex and multi-component elements, but also on the condition that the base fabric and the material for decoration will have the same characteristics and care requirements - dyeing method, temperature and washing technique.

How to make a fabric flower on a dress with your own hands?

If felt can be called a fabric, then here it is! A charming flower, very simple to make and suitable anywhere - on a dress (most likely winter), on a sweater, or even on a headband.

And this flower is made of organza or silk. More refined and elegant. It will definitely match the dress.

I think that step-by-step photos show everything clearly and accessible and there will be no difficulties in the execution process :)

Sometimes you want to decorate the dress yourself, update it for the summer or just give it a twist, an ordinary fabric flower will help us with this. You can do it in different ways. For example, from satin ribbons using the kanzashi technique, from organza or any other fabric suitable for your outfit. I will give the simplest example of making a flower.

We make several templates from paper in the form of a flower, but different in size: bigger, smaller, even smaller. We transfer them to the fabric, cut them out, process the edges so that they do not crumble (you can burn them with a candle, for example), fold them in such a way that the largest one is at the bottom, and the smallest one is at the top, we sew it all together, you can glue or sew a bead or rhinestone, attach to a dress, blouse or other outfit. And you will attract attention!

These are the roses I make for my daughter on hairpins and elastic bands, it will not be difficult to put her on a brooch and attach to a dress. The fabric I took was tulle for curtains. I chose the one I liked in the store and asked to cut off 20 cm, this is quite enough for a flower, and it still remains. We cut off the square, fold it in half, bend the corners down and sew along the bottom with a thread. We pick up the thread. Next, we collect all the petals for glue. And blanks for brooches are sold.

A fabric flower for decorating a dress can be made from any piece of fabric with your own hands. The dressmaker always has scraps in stock. Where to go? Of course, make a beautiful flower out of them and decorate a dress with it.

A formal dress can be complemented with a voluminous flower and make it festive. A boring casual dress can be decorated with a large rose. And to give a zest to the wedding dress, decorate it with a contrasting ribbon flower. In our master class, you will learn how to make flowers on a fabric dress quickly and easily with your own hands.

The most important thing in this matter is that such a decorative element can be easily made with your own hands from improvised means. In our master class you will learn how to make a flower easily and simply.

Beautiful and original flower with a lace center

Making such a flower does not take much time. With a small patch of dense fabric, you can create the flower shown in the photo below.

Make circles of the diameter you need
Fold each piece in half twice.
Seam the bottom edge of the resulting petals
Gather all blanks into a flower
Attach a small piece of lace to the center
Attach a button to hide the seams.

Creating a delicate satin rose with your own hands with love

The rose is considered a royal flower and also a symbol of love. Agree, such jewelry for a dress will always look advantageous.

To create, we need red and pink ribbons about 35 centimeters long.

Bend the edges of the fabric away from you and start wrapping the rosette. The base should be secured with a thread, not reaching the fold line.

To secure all layers, sew the end of the tape from the inside out.

Satin and chiffon flowers - an unusual solution

The easiest flower to create from circles is shown in the photo below. In this case, it is desirable to use a different material.

Make circles of fabric of different diameters. There must be at least 5 of them in total.
Burn the edges a little
Gather the petals together into a flower, starting with the largest circle.
Pin all layers together
Decorate the flower by pinning all the petals together.

Implementation of a large organza flower

Use a stencil in the form of divided petals, which will serve as a pattern for a lush flower. The fabric can be selected in different tones and different textures.

Fold the material in several layers to get a square. Its size must be larger than the template.
Outline the petals and carefully cut out. The number of petals directly depends on the size of the flower you want to make.
Lay all the finished shapes on top of each other, align the layers, fasten all the petals in the center with a thread.
To decorate the middle, use beads and beads.

Ribbon flower with delicate green litters

Another interesting option for creating a flower from ribbons. Of the necessary material, you only need multi-colored ribbons, which can be ordinary pieces of fabric, a thread and a needle, jewelry.

If you want to make a lush flower, use wide ribbons.

Take a 50 centimeter ribbon and wrap its edge to make a triangle.
Tuck the sharp part of the triangle and fasten it with a thread.
Collect the ribbon in the form of an accordion.
Gather a flower from the resulting ribbon and secure at the base with a thread.
To create petals, fold the green ribbon 10 centimeters into a triangle.
Sweep it up again and pull it off.
Thus, we have a leaf.
As a result, collect the details together and decorate with beads.

We make flowers from fabric - Fair of Masters

In this version, I paint only the middle of the blanks, leaving the edges white. To achieve absolutely identical and even blanks is not worth it, because. in living nature there is nothing symmetrical and identical.

After the paint on all the blanks has dried, proceed to the next step - cut out the petals. To do this, cut the blank into 4 parts without reaching the center of about 1-1.5 cm and cut off the sharp corners of the petals. Then, carefully and carefully process all the edges of the petals over the candle flame.

Having processed all the “quatrefoil blanks” in this way, we lay them out in size. Then we make a flower out of them in descending order, fastening them together with "hot" glue (or stitching them with threads).

We add stamens (here a small polystyrene tinted in green), leaves and fix our revived flower with "hot" glue on the basis for hairpins. In this case, I decided to leave the flowers more "open", for which I used only 10-11 layers of blanks, leaving the middle free.
Option No. 2 (white chiffon) All stages are the same as in option No. 1, only in this case we paint not only the middle, but the entire surface of the workpiece.

Cut into 4 parts, "round" the edges.

We burn the edges over the candles.

Collecting a flower.

Add leaves and fasten to the base for hairpins. To get such more lush flowers, I used 16-17 layers of blanks, completely covering the middle.
Option number 3 (from colored fabrics) To make these flowers, I used fabrics left after sewing a dress for my daughter. These are three types of fabrics: gray silk, colored crinkled chiffon and light gray organza. All work steps are the same, only without dyeing fabrics. For clarity, I made two versions of such a flower - one of the blanks with 4 petals, and the other of the blanks with 8 petals (the difference is clearly visible in the finished form).
To make such flowers even faster and easier - cut, burn, collect, fix ....

And here is the result - a wonderful accessory for the dress is ready!

Among the many different ways of making flowers from fabric, it seems to me that this option is the most affordable, fast, and does not require special training and rare, expensive tools. At the same time, it allows you to achieve excellent results!

By fantasizing and experimenting in toning, combination of fabrics and assembly options, you can get a variety of floral decorations and accessories.

I hope my photo lesson will be useful and interesting: it will help someone remember a long-known type of needlework, someone will inspire new ideas, and someone will decide to take the first step into the wonderful world of creativity with its help! Good luck, inspiration and good mood ! May FLOWERS always bloom in your soul... :)

Even the most beautiful dress will sparkle in a new way if you complement it with a fabric flower.

You can wear jewelry in different ways:

with a hairpin in her hair, a flower will complement an elegant hairstyle;
if you decorate a bracelet with it, then you will not take your eyes off your hands;
on a dress, it can be a brooch on the chest or hide the clasp of the belt.

Delicate flower on the dress

As a first experience, a creation from thin natural fabrics is suitable. The translucent texture will make the flower delicate, the stiffness of the denser fabric will make the petals dimensionally stable. The size of the first flower is better to choose medium: with small details you need skill, and the assembly of a large one is the lot of experienced flower makers.

Pattern

The best source of inspiration is, of course, nature. Experienced craftsmen create exact copies of natural flowers, having previously removed patterns from their petals. For a fantasy form, approximate patterns of petals of three or four sizes are enough. It can be separate large petals and a continuous circle of the smallest petals.

Fabric choice

Beautiful flowers are obtained from companion fabrics. A denser fabric for large outer petals is complemented by a translucent center. It is better to choose light fabrics, you can tighten the color to the dress by dyeing.

Natural silk fabric is well formed, for the first experience it is better to choose it. Gelatin or PVA can be used as a dressing. The second is used for accessories that are not afraid of moisture. For leaves and green buds, dense green silk is suitable.

Petal coloring

It is necessary to paint after processing with a dressing. You can use aniline dyes or food grade. Wet blanks are laid out on the glass. The petals are tinted with a brush, moving from the middle to the outer edge. Since the fabric is wet, the color stretch is smooth and natural.

Preparation of materials

Flower parts are formed under the influence of heat and pressure. Special bulb nozzles are put on an ordinary soldering iron; a soft and hard pad serves as the basis for bulging. Foam rubber serves as filling in a soft substrate, and in a hard one - a rubber mat. We will assemble the flower using PVA glue and a thin wire glued at the base of the petals.

Shaping the petals

We give the shape to the petals with the help of special nozzles on the soldering iron. I molded my first flower with a spoon and a kitchen knife. Heated over an open flame, they are not as effective as a soldering iron with a special tool.

Reference! It has become very easy to buy a tool today. It is enough to make a request and the necessary tools are at your disposal.

We work alternately on a hard and soft pad. After a few petals, a clear understanding will come, which combination of movements, and for which form is more suitable.

Making pistil and stamens

For the manufacture of stamens, we use chopped thick fishing line, its sections can be dipped in tinted semolina. We form a pestle from cotton wool on a wire and paint it in the desired color.

flower core

To decorate the core of a fantasy flower, you can use a variety of materials. In the course will go: buttons, beads, beads and even feathers.

Second flower

Another flower I love for its simplicity. It always turns out different, the result is not predictable.

Fabric choice

We will make it from ordinary, synthetic organza. To make it friends with the fabric of the dress, you can include in its composition several petals from a suitable fabric for the dress. We cut the petals a little more than for the previous flower.

Forming petals

We clamp the petal with tweezers from the edge where it will be sewn into the middle. Carefully lower it over the candle flame. The edge of the petal is melted and twisted. The final shape can be given by slightly pulling in the desired direction. Just like with bulges, practiced movements come with a little experience.

flower assembly

First, we prepare the middle of the flower. It can be the same as in the first case, or you can embroider a fabric-covered button with mother-of-pearl beads of different shades. We collect the petals from the middle of the flower outward. From small ones we gradually move to larger ones.

Important! What is the advantage of this unpretentious flower - it is not afraid of bad weather. Without finishing and rare in our area, PVA perfectly keeps its original shape, even in bad weather.

There are many types of artificial flowers. These are miniature kanzashi that came to us from the culture of Japan. The custom of decorating oneself to protect oneself from evil spirits is very ancient there. In any culture, it is customary to decorate yourself with fresh flowers. But fresh flowers quickly wither, an alternative from artificial plants comes to the rescue. The custom quickly takes root and is passed down from generation to generation.

Fabric jewelry is a very ancient accessory. The first appearance is dated in ancient China before our era. The flowers were made of silk, porcelain and gold. It was said about the masters that they see the soul of a flower, which is why their creations are so beautiful. Later, in ancient Greece, a reservoir of aromatic oils was worn in artificial colors.

Plants made from gelatin-impregnated fabrics were first made by Dominican monks in the seventeenth century. Since then, fashion has faded, then flares up with renewed vigor. They are always present in wedding and festive clothes.

Not every outfit goes with artificial flowers, but any girl has many reasons to wear a dress adorned with an original accessory. This is the continuity of generations and a tribute to the beautiful, which always has a place in our hectic world.

Master class on making artificial flowers from organza

Necessary materials

In order to make organza flowers, you will need:

Organza. The color of the fabric depends on the preferences of the bride and the theme, style of the wedding. To create an interesting composition, materials of different shades can be used. If it is impossible to find organza, chiffon or satin will do.
Sewing accessories - needle, thread, wire.
Beads, beads for decoration.
Candle, matches.
Paper needed for drawing patterns and sketches.

Stages of creation

A detailed master class will help you learn how to make fabric flowers with your own hands:

We are preparing patterns for future buds. To do this, draw several circles of different diameters on paper. To make the circles as even as possible, you should use glasses of different sizes or other round objects. After drawing, cut out the elements and transfer to the fabric. Using ready-made templates, we cut out several circles of each diameter from organza - we got petal blanks.

Light a candle. Bringing each petal, melt the edges a little. In order to determine how far from the fire to keep the fabric, practice on unnecessary segments. Small details should be singeed, holding them with tweezers so as not to burn your hands.

Let's start assembling. It is better to start with the lower petals of a large size, gradually adding the rest. The middle should be decorated with beads or beads, sewn on or strung on a wire. The organza peony is ready.

To create an organza rose, it is necessary during the first stage to make five shallow cuts on the finished fabric mug. When processing parts with fire, it is important to ensure that all the petals are twisted in one direction, then the bud will look neat and beautiful.

Simple decorative ribbon flowers

Necessary materials

In order to make buds from ribbons, you will need:

Satin ribbons in two colors (main and for leaves). Particular attention should be paid to the width of the tapes - the wider and longer it is, the larger and more voluminous the product will be.
Threads, needle.
Optionally, beads or rhinestones can be used for decoration.

Stages of creation

We cut off a satin ribbon of the required width, 50 cm long. We wrap one edge to make a triangle.

We fold a small corner and fasten it with a needle and thread.

We collect the tape on a thread, folding it to make a beautiful "accordion". How to do it right, look at the photo.

Having collected the entire tape, it must be wrapped around the base, forming a beautiful rose. Secure everything with a thread so that the composition does not fall apart.

To create a leaflet, cut a ribbon 10 centimeters long, fold both ends into the middle, forming a triangle. Sew and tighten the triangle at the base. The leaf is ready. To create a beautiful composition, at least two leaves are needed for one flower.

We connect the flower with the leaves - the masterpiece is ready.

Master class number 2:

We cut off a satin ribbon 35 centimeters long. We bend the edge away from ourselves and begin to twist the flower. We fix the base with a thread, not reaching the fold line.

We bend the tape towards ourselves, forming a petal. We continue to twist the rose, wrapping the ribbon towards us.
We sew the end of the tape from the inside out, fastening all the layers with a thread so that they do not fall apart.

By analogy, we make the required number of flowers, from which we will make an accessory or decoration. Such textile accessories are perfect for creating a wedding topiary.

Large fabric flowers using kanzashi technique

Necessary materials

To make a flower using the kanzashi technique, you will need:

Satin ribbon. A large flower requires a wide ribbon. In order to get a multi-colored masterpiece, it is worth buying material of different shades, the golden elements in the product look good.
Glue gun, Moment-Crystal glue.
Thread, needle, scissors.
For decoration - beads, beads, rhinestones, small decorative ornaments in the form of insects (butterflies, ladybugs).
Cardboard or ball, cellophane bag.

Stages of creation

Two methods can be used to create large kanzashi-style flowers, we will consider both so that everyone can choose the most suitable and simple option for themselves. Master class number 1:

We cut the satin ribbon 7 cm long. Fold it in half and cut it at an angle with a soldering iron.

On the other hand, we wrap the tape in the opposite direction, singe the edge, due to which the two ends of the tape are connected. We make the required number of blank petals, which depends on the desired size of the flower.

We take cardboard and draw a circle along which we will glue the petals. The larger the diameter, the larger the accessory will turn out as a result. Glue all the petals around.

The second option for creating kanzashi involves creating a large, round, convex flower:

The ball is covered with a plastic bag. The size of the finished product depends on the diameter of the ball.
We make petals that will serve as the basis of the product.
We connect seven finished petals with a thread and a needle into a circle, fix it. It turns out a small flower, which we attach to our ball in the center.
Next, glue the petals, placing them between the elements of the previous row.
We glue one more element to the petals of the first row, and two more on each side to the details of the third.
By analogy, we glue the remaining petals until we get a flower of the desired size.
We remove the ball and the plastic bag, our masterpiece is ready.

Fabric flowers are a wonderful decoration, suitable for any outfit, if, of course, their color and texture are correctly chosen. Women adore floral compositions both on fabric and in the decor of apartments, they will not refuse additional decoration in the form of a flower pinned to the dress. Flowers in the form of accessories can be used in a variety of ways, including you can make them yourself, giving the image an individual touch.

In the article, we will consider the features of textile flowers as a way to decorate women's outfits. Let's find out what fabrics they are made of, what dresses they look best with. We will also learn how to make a flower out of fabric with your own hands.

Origin story

It should be noted that the use of artificial fabric flowers to decorate dresses began in ancient times. In ancient China and Egypt, the art of creating flower arrangements was in high esteem, and the fine products of the masters cost a lot of money. Women tried to perfume them with various drugs in order to achieve two goals at the same time: to decorate the dress and attract fans.

On the video - fabric flowers to decorate the dress:

For a very long time, only rich and noble ladies could decorate themselves with fabric flowers: such luxury was not available to ordinary girls. But during the Renaissance in France, they guessed to establish the industrial production of such products. And then the jewelry became cheaper. And now there is nothing to say: with modern textile materials, a variety of inexpensive synthetics, any woman can purchase or make a fabric flower.

Peculiarities

It should be noted the extraordinary versatility of this accessory. With a textile flower decoration, it is appropriate to appear at a wedding, a party, a restaurant, and even a funeral. Hardly any other accessory has such a rare universal relevance. But, of course, the flower must be matched in color and size.

The art of creating flowers from fabric is called silk floristry. Craftswomen working in this manner adhere to the classical methods of creating textile flowers. As a result of their work, real works of art are obtained - flowers sometimes look like living ones.

Flowers are so popular that in Japan one of the generally recognized national arts (along with origami) is kanzashi. These are textile flowers that are used mainly for decorating hairstyles, but in our culture we can also use them to decorate dresses.

How to wear an artificial flower

A small graceful fabric flower will make any, the most cloudy day festive and bright. And if it is made by hand, it will be doubly pleasant to wear and demonstrate it. Some useful tips for wearing fabric flowers.

Decoration on a dress in the office

It is necessary to choose jewelry, based on considerations of relevance. You should not wear a brooch with a lush, bright flower to the office, which will attract everyone's attention. But, on the other hand, at a fun party, a laconic, strict flower may also not fit into a festive look.

To wear to the office

For work, choose simple, concise products - plain and calm. Such options will best complement the work outfit and bring a bit of femininity to it. Ideal for a working suit, brooches made of Chanel-type tweed suiting fabric.

To walk

Here you can already be more free when choosing jewelry. If, then the products can be used and bright, and original, and of considerable size.

Such decorations are only suitable for evening outings or weddings.

If you want to make the image romantic, you should choose products from fabrics of delicate shades and airy material: organza, chiffon.

In winter, the color scheme becomes more calm in clothes, the same applies to jewelry. And for the autumn time, warm colors are well suited: luxurious crimson, terracotta, dark green and orange shades of artificial flowers will make this sad time much brighter.

On holiday

To complement an evening dress, choose beautiful, elegant fabrics. It looks interesting when the texture of the flower is opposite to the dress. For example, a wonderful contrast is obtained by combining a shiny jewelry and a matte dress. And vice versa.

Textile products are good because they can turn any, even very modest outfit into a festive one. Even if you just pin a beautiful flower to your work dress, it will already make the whole look elegant.

How to decorate a wedding dress with roses

Wedding textile decorations are a special topic. Most often they are of a delicate white shade, but they can also be contrasting: red, even black. Pastel blue, pinkish, yellow are also common colors for wedding textiles.

For a wedding

If we talk about fabric, then satin, silk or chiffon jewelry is best suited for a wedding look. It will be great if you pick up a flower from the same material as the dress. But which dress is most suitable for a Provence-style wedding, you can find out from this

You can decorate the dress as a single product, or as a whole flower arrangement. In the latter case, it is necessary that the flowers themselves be small, and in a single version - large.

Flowers can be located not only on the bride's dress, but also decorate her shoes, handbag, hairstyle. Yes, and a textile flower is useful for the groom, decorating his boutonniere.

How to make fabric decor yourself with your own hands

You can, of course, buy your favorite decoration in the store, but it is much more interesting to make a flower yourself. In this case, no one will definitely have a second one. In order to make a textile decoration in the form of a flower, you will need:

On the video, do-it-yourself fabric flowers on a dress:

Sometimes the petals need to be colored to give the flower a certain shade. For this purpose, you can use fabric paints. And in their absence - gouache or colored ink. You can dye both the fabric itself before cutting it, and the petals already prepared for stitching. And in order for the decoration to keep its shape better, the petals can be starched. Both starch and gelatin can be used as a formative substance.

It will also be interesting to see how beautiful velvet dresses look in the photo, and how to choose such a dress for yourself:

But how beautiful summer dresses on the floor look in the photo can be seen in the photo in

Chiffon and satin

This way of creating jewelry will not cause difficulties even for an inexperienced craftswoman. What summer chiffon dresses for obese women are the most popular, and how they look, is described in this

Instruction

Take a small piece of satin and chiffon in a suitable color. You can use one of the materials. Cut the fabric into small circles. The diameter of the circles should be different. When choosing their size, be guided by the size of the flower that you want to achieve. Details must be at least five pieces. In general, the more there are, the more magnificent the flower will turn out. Burn the edges of the circles to give them a characteristic waviness.

from chiffon

Collect the circles in one center, starting with the largest. Pin them with a pin, collecting all the layers. Sew all the elements together by pulling together all the petals. The product is ready.

From organza

In this case, the decoration is sewn according to the same principle as the previous time. You can use organza of different shades - the product will turn out to be more decorative. The core of this flower can be decorated with decor. Beads, pearls, beads are perfectly combined with organza.

From organza

And in order not to spend too much time stitching the petals, you can use the quick way to create jewelry. To do this, take a satin ribbon and thread one of its edges with a thread. Pull off the frill and twist the ribbon into a roll. You will get a decorative flower. Remember to fasten the end of the thread so that the product does not unravel.

Fabrics for creating a textile flower

The following materials are suitable for a flower.

Organza. From this airy transparent material and the corresponding products are obtained - gentle and light.
Silk. This is the choice for finishing a luxurious evening dress. Silk is an exceptionally elegant fabric, with exquisite tints, so the flower will turn out to be very beautiful and decorative, not very suitable for daytime. And here is how the dress made of Dolce and Gabbana silk looks in the photo, you can see here the article.

In addition to the listed fabrics, linen, velvet, crepe de chine, tweed and other materials can be used as a material. The main thing: they should be textured and have a beautiful color.

It is best to stay on natural fabric, as it drapes better, more elegant, smooth folds and petals are obtained from it. Polyester and other synthetics most often bristle ugly, and it is difficult to create an exquisite image with them.

If you are making jewelry for the first time, do not try to use expensive fabrics and decor. For a trial version, you can choose materials and simpler. But when you already “fill your hand”, then you can use, without fear of spoiling, expensive fabrics.

We examined the features of fabric flowers as a wonderful decorative decoration. As you can see, you can use textile flowers in both evening and everyday looks, it will not be difficult to make them with your own hands. With floral fabric decorations, you will always look feminine and luxurious.

Master class 1. Simple fabric roses in country style

If you like, or rustic, then this master class is for you. Below are examples of work that you can do by mastering the technique of twisting fabric roses.

You will need:

Textile;
Scissors;
Hot glue gun.

How to make a fabric rose:

Step 1. Cut the fabric into ribbons. To create one rose, you will need one strip 50-70 cm long and about 3-5 cm wide. However, you can choose other sizes if you want to make the rose larger or smaller than in this project.

Step 2. Fold your strip in half and put a 1.5 cm line of glue on its tip (see right photo above).

Step 3. Start rolling the strip into a roll in a few turns.

Step 4. When the roll becomes dense and strong enough, proceed to the formation of the first "petals": fold the ribbon obliquely to the outside as shown in the upper photo on the right and wrap the center of the rose.

Step 5. Continue to form the petals in the same order: fold the ribbon on the bias to the outside - wrap the blank - fold the ribbon on the bias to the outside - wrap the blank - etc. There should be approximately 3-5 bends of the tape per row of petals. From time to time, layers of fabric need to be fixed with hot glue. As a result, you should get a rose like in these photos.

Experiment with the number of folds of the flower and the density of the fabric to achieve a more casual or, conversely, neater look for your flower.

Step 6. Once the rose has reached the desired diameter, lower the remaining ribbon tail down and glue it to the base.

In this project, the back side of the craft was covered with the remaining tail of the fabric.

Step 8. Make the number of flowers you need in different sizes - small, medium and large.

This video presents a master class on how to make roses from denim with your own hands.

Master class 2. Artificial flowers made of satin fabric or organza

Looking at these flowers made of satin fabric, it seems that they were created by a real master of flower making, but in fact, even a beginner can make the same realistic peonies / roses.

You will need:

Candle;
Satin, silk, chiffon or organza in 100% polyester. For the manufacture of peonies, white and pink matter (all shades) is suitable;
Scissors;
Yellow floss threads (for stamens);
Needle.

Instruction:

Step 1. Cut out 5 circles from the fabric: 4 circles with a diameter of 8-10 cm and 1 circle with a diameter of about 5-8 cm. You can cut roughly and by eye, any inaccuracies and irregularities do not matter.

Step 2. Light a candle and start processing the first round blank: carefully bring its edge close to the flame and start rotating around its axis so that all the edges of the circle are melted and twisted. Be careful, keep a glass of water ready, and most importantly - do not bring the workpiece too close to the fire. Keep in mind that if you overdo it, the edges will turn black, which is not always desirable. However, sometimes it is the blackened edges that give homemade flowers realism or originality. Repeat this process with all remaining circles.

Step 3. Now, using scissors, make 4 cuts on each blank as shown in the diagram and photo below. The main thing here is to leave the center of the circle intact.

Step 4. Back to working with the candle again. This time, we melt the sections we just made by pushing the sections apart with both hands. Repeat the procedure with all five petals.

Step 5. Set 2 large and 1 smallest blanks aside. We will return to them, but for now let's take care of the 2 remaining blanks, that is, the middle layers of the peony petals. They need to be cut again according to the following scheme.

As a result, the petals will be twice as many.

Step 6 Scorch new cuts with a candle and set the blanks aside.

Step 7. It's time to make the peony stamens in the form of a small pompom from yellow floss threads. For this:

Wrap a whole thread of floss tightly around your index and middle fingers folded together. You should have about 8 turns.
Now tightly tie the middle of the resulting skein with the same yellow thread (between two fingers).
Cut two loops, straighten the threads and trim the pom-pom if necessary.

Step 8. We proceed to the "assembly" of the flower. Stack two large blanks on top of each other, which have only 4 petals, then put two blanks with 8 petals on top of them and, finally, complete the bud with the smallest blank with 4 petals.

Step 9. Hooray, the flower is almost ready! It remains only to sew a yellow pompom to its center, at the same time sewing all 5 layers of petals together.

If desired, glue / sew the necessary accessories to the back of the bud, for example, a pin, to make a brooch out of a flower.

By changing the shape, color, size of the petals, their number and the principle of gluing, you can make not only peonies and roses, but also poppies (pictured), ranunculus, lilies and tulips.

And here is an example of flowers made from organza.

Master class 3. A flower from frills in 5 minutes

You do not have hot glue, but do you have a needle and thread? Or did you suddenly need to make fabric flowers as quickly as possible? Then we hasten to introduce you to the technique of making flowers from frills.

You will need:

Textile;
Scissors;
Needle and thread to match the fabric;
Iron (optional).

Step 1. Cut the fabric into strips about 30 cm long and about 7-8 cm wide. You can choose other sizes to make the flowers smaller or larger.

Step 2. Fold the strip in half lengthwise and iron the fold.

Step 3. Baste the workpiece with wide stitches at the bottom as shown in the photo below.

Step 4 Gather the workpiece into an accordion by slowly pulling the thread. Do not pull the thread too hard to avoid breaking it.

Step 5. Close the circle by connecting the two ends of the tape and making a few stitches (tie a knot on the back).

Step 6. Glue/sew beads, rhinestones or buttons into the center of the flower. Ready!

This method can be changed slightly if you want to make a more layered flower with raw cuts, such as linen or jeans. Cut a wide and long strip of fabric, baste it in the middle from beginning to end, fold it into an accordion, roll one edge of the strip into a roll, and then begin to fold the tape around it. Periodically, layers of fabric need to be fixed with glue or stitches. Below in the photo slider is a master class in pictures on making a flower from flax (scroll the photo to the right).

If you have a large length of fabric, you can make a flower with a large diameter, for example, to decorate a pillow cover. To pick up such a long ribbon, the easiest way is to use a sewing machine.

To make such large flowers, you will need strips of fabric 2.5-3 m long

These potted flowers are made from old cotton t-shirts.

Master class 4. Volumetric pom-pom flower

This master class is good in cases where you need a fabric flower to be voluminous and lush.

You will need:

Any soft fabric of the desired color;
Hot glue gun;
Scissors;
Felt.

Instruction:

Step 1. Cut out about 20-30 circles with a diameter of about 4 cm from the fabric. All these circles will become petals in the future. You can cut blanks by eye, the correctness of the shape does not matter.

To cut several circles at once, simply fold the fabric 3-4 times.

Step 2. Now cut out a circle with a diameter of about 4 cm from the felt. This circle will become the base of your flower.

Step 3 Take one of your petal circles and fold it into a bag like the photo below.

Step 4. Glue your blank with the tip to the center of the felt base.

Step 5. Continue gluing your paper bags one by one to the felt base until it is completely covered with petals. Voila! The flower is ready!

If you wish, you can make the flower not lush, but flat and supplement it with beaded stamens. To do this, the petals must be folded as follows: we bend the circle in half, then we bend the right and left parts of the resulting semicircle to its center to make a quarter. Next, you just have to glue the petals in a circle on a felt base, and then sew / glue beads into the center.

And a few more ideas that you can implement by following our master class.

And finally, we offer you to watch another video tutorial on how to make fabric flowers with your own hands.
