Crafts from woolen threads flowers for children. Iris flower made of threads. What can be done from threads with your own hands: a beautiful pattern when painting a wall

Spring is coming, and many of our readers are already spring mood... I want something light and beautiful. Hence the question for our dear needlewomen, shouldn't we make a flower with our own hands ?!
Let this flower be a wonderful iris. So, for work you need to prepare:
white, yellow and green threads for knitting, acrylic or semi-woolen can be used;
glue, wire and hook, stamen beads.
Job creation time is approximately two hours. As a result, we should get such a flower.

Let's consider our work in stages.
Stage one. We make the base of the flower.
We take the threads yellow color, we knit two loops together and begin to knit in a circle with the addition of loops (we knit with ordinary single crochet columns). When a circle is obtained with a diameter of 2.5 cm, we stop adding loops, and continue. We knit another 4 cm, and then we begin to sharply add loops to get the following.


Stage two. Petals.
When our yellow base bell is ready, it's time to make 6 petals. We knit them using white threads. The pattern is simple. We knit air loops, and then we begin an ordinary knitting, we need the size. At the top we make a kind of triangle, and we close the knitting.


We make 5 more petals.
Stage three. Stem.
Now it's time to make a stem and connect it first to the base and then to the petals. We make the stem with the help of a wire, on which we sequentially wind green threads. We knit a small green base and attach it on one side to the stem, and on the other to the base.
Here's what we got.


Stage four. Stamens.
To make our flower even more similar to this creation of nature, we need to make it stamens. To do this, we first knit a yellow circle, the diameter of which should not exceed 2 cm, and then with the help of large beads we make such stamens.


Glue the stamens to the inside of our base ..
Then we sew or glue the petals. This is the kind of flower we get.


And this is how the flower looks from the other side.


Stage five. Leaflets
Now the matter remains small - to make leaves from green threads. They can be knitted with the help of imagination. In our version, 6 rows of ordinary loops were first knitted (the length of the sheet itself is about 6 cm), and then one row of columns with 1 crochet was knitted.
Here are the leaves.

Is there at least one woman in the world who is indifferent to flowers? But everyone knows that these fragile charming creations of nature do not live long - both cut and growing in the garden. They wither quickly and cease to bring joy to the hostesses.

What to do?

How do you extend the life of these little wonders of nature? There is perhaps only one way - to perpetuate them by making graceful crafts- flowers from threads - do it yourself (for example, from yarn). weave, embroider, knit, make from wire and a variety of materials at hand. There are also flowers made of threads on cardboard. It is not at all difficult to make them with your own hands.

Create flowers from multicolored threads- the lesson is creative and very exciting. A great deal of patience and perseverance will be required from the craftswoman. In addition, you need imagination, without which it is difficult to come up with something original. Of course, a good eye and dexterous flexible fingers are important.

Well, let's try to do this fascinating business - creating fancy flowers from threads with our own hands.

What do we need

Any work requires preliminary preparation of all the necessary materials and auxiliary tools. V this case we need thread or yarn. We will choose it depending on the conceived model, having decided on the type, color and size of future products. Depends on color palette, which is most reasonable to take in the traditional scale - for recognition.

You can of course craft bright blue roses or black peonies. Perhaps it will be original. But in our case, it seems that our do-it-yourself thread flowers should have the maximum resemblance to natural prototypes. For the same reasons, we draw attention to the texture of the threads. If the yarn has a very complex, intricate structure, it is not easy to work with it, and the result is not always predictable.

It is best to take threads of medium thickness, especially for needlewomen without experience. If you cannot find a suitable yarn, you can take a finer one and fold it two or three times. On the other hand, the volume of threads that are too thick is reduced by delamination.

The easiest way to make flowers is from acrylic. This yarn has all the necessary properties - it is fluffy, slightly stretchy, it is easy to wind it around the wire. However, threads of mixed composition are not prohibited either.

Knitting needles, hook and wire

You can't make with your own hands without a hook and knitting needles. Let them be different sizes... Thick knitting needles to knit large flowers, thin - smaller. We cannot do without wire of various thicknesses in our business. Its large segments will make up the frame of twigs and large petals, small diameter will go to the manufacture of weightless airy leaves.

The wire must be cleaned before starting work to eliminate possible oily deposits. This can be done by wiping it with a cotton swab soaked in alcohol or simply washing it with soap and water under the tap. So our future craft will look neat and clean.

The wire can also vary in composition. For the stem of each flower, a strong steel one is suitable, which almost does not bend. She will also be able to imitate large branches. Thinner copper wire, which is easy to bend, will form the basis of leaves, petals and buds.

What else is needed

From the tools you should take scissors, nippers and, of course, pliers. Working with wire is difficult without them. You will need to bite off even pieces of it, press the protruding ends or weave them together and secure. Sharp, strong scissors will be needed to cut off the threads - sometimes in a whole bunch.

The needlewoman cannot do without additional materials- glue, foam rubber, cotton wool, cardboard, acrylic paints, with which you will have to touch up a piece of wire that accidentally remained unfilled during the process of winding the thread. You can also use them to change the color of the yarn if the desired shade could not be found in the store.

Having prepared everything you need (material, tools), let's think about a plan for creating our future product.

Preparatory work

How to make a flower from threads with your own hands? If you want to reproduce one or another of its types, carefully examine the sample. Pay attention to the aspect ratio. You may need to take a ruler to measure comparative sizes petals and buds.

Then try to copy the floral elements, repeating the dimensions of a real living plant. The basis for you will serve as a wire outline, woven and attached to a living flower to adjust the size and shape.

If your future product has an intricate outline, it is pre-drawn on paper. All components are created separately, then applied to the sketch to adjust the dimensions - width and length. Then the scattered fragments are connected together.

Making leaves

Flower leaves of any size and shape are made in one of two ways. The technology of the first of them involves the use of threads, knitting needles and wire. With the help of these techniques, not only leaves are created, but also flower petals.

So let's get started. On the needles, loops of the desired width are typed from the yarn selected in color and thickness. Then the selected row of loops is carefully transferred to the wire, a piece of which should be bent in half and fasten the ends of the threads. The wire is twisted together with the thread, the excess protruding ends are cut off. From such wire loops, giving them different shapes, you can get many leaves and petals.

Second way

Another method is winding. Thanks to him, we will be able to get leaflets that have more complex shape... The work is painstaking and requires a lot of patience. Each petal is based on its own individual small frame. Bending it out of wire, wrap it with thread, then fill it with yarn.

The edges of the leaf can be decorated by neatly stitching with another thread (contrasting or slightly different in shade from the main color). You can weave a thin cord from threads and sheathe the edges of the petal with it.

What do you need to know when making these pieces of paper? The space between the wires must be completely filled. Without this, our product will not look neat. Be careful not to skip when winding the thread. The ends of each thread should be carefully tucked under the warp.

How to make flowers from threads with your own hands: master class number 1

As an example of making such a craft, we give small master class to create a specific flower - tiger lily.

What should you stock up on? First of all, a small skein of wire (rather thin) and some thread. Take the colors red, yellow and light green. Prepare a set of acrylic paints with a thin brush, a little cotton wool, a tube of PVA glue and red nail polish. Don't be scared work ahead... The process of creating this graceful flower is not nearly as complicated as it seems at first.

Making a tiger lily

We bend the thin wire in half. Future petals must have elongated shape... If you don't have a real flower at hand, find the corresponding photo on the Internet. Using the winding method, surround with red threads upper part petal and yellow - the bottom. The transition between these two colors should be smoothed over - painted over acrylic paint.

Decorate part of the yellow petal with small brown dots. One petal is ready. Repeat all of the above a few more times, making 5-6 of the same petals.

Then we move on to making the stamens. Wet a small piece of cotton wool and twist it tightly. Wrap the middle of the resulting lump with a thin wire, twisting the remaining ends of the required length together. If it is possible to keep a live flower at hand as a sample, you can carefully measure the length of its stamens with a small ruler.

Cover the dried cotton wool with a couple of layers of glue, waiting for each of them to dry completely. In order for the stamens made to take on a natural red color, they should either be painted with varnish (acrylic paint), or wrapped with a thin red thread. In total, you need to make six to seven pieces.

Continuation of work

The pestle is handled in the same way - with the help of the same cotton, glue and thread, this time green. Its shape and size will be prompted by the image of a real lily. Surround the pistil with stamens and secure everything together. For plausibility, lightly squeeze each of the stamens down, then the resulting design is complemented by pre-made flower petals. Some of them are attached from the inside, some from the outside.

All remaining and protruding wire ends are wrapped with a light green thread, a thick piece of wire is attached to them, imitating a stem, on which the winding continues. To make the work look neat, the threads should be fixed here and there on the wire with glue.

If your goal is to achieve complete believability, then you will need some more green leaves. They are mastered by one of the methods described above and are attached simultaneously with the winding of the stem. If your tiger lily is part of a large flower arrangement assuming a lot different colors, you can do without green leaves.

The lighter option

But here's a simpler master class for you - want to quickly make a cute bright yellow bunch of fluffy flowers from yarn? To do this, you need very little - in addition to a skein woolen thread a rich, sunny color, take a long piece of thick wire or a few metal skewers. Of the tools, you will need nippers and thread scissors.

Please select optimal size the length of each stem. It can be different - it will look more natural. Use wire cutters to cut the wire or skewers into lengths of your choice.

Wind the thread around your index and middle fingers, making about 30 turns. Leave the tip long enough. Having removed the resulting hank from your fingers, tighten the center of the formed small ball with a thread, dividing it into halves. All loops should be cut with scissors at the same time.

What will we get

Their size may vary, so you can take small scissors and cut each petal separately. Having fluffed up the flower and giving it a spherical shape, cut off the protruding ends of the threads. Then secure the resulting fluffy ball to the wire stem.

You can make such flowers from threads with your own hands in the amount of 11-15 pieces or more, depending on the volume of the vase in which you want to put your bright elegant bouquet. The procedure for making a fluffy bright yellow "dandelion" is so simple that, having made one or two copies, you automatically continue to tinker, while looking at the TV.

Such a bright yellow bouquet will not only decorate the windowsill in the apartment, but also pleasantly refresh the interior in the office. You can also give it to your friends as a funny gift.

We make flowers from threads with our own hands: another master class

And here's another great easy way... Even a child will master flowers made of thread and glue with his own hands. It will take air balloons, multi-colored coils, scissors and the same tube of PVA.

All balls are inflated and carefully tied so that they do not go down during work. The next step is to carefully wrap each of them with threads. To easily and freely unwind them from a spool or ball, put the threads in a jar with a wide neck.

We begin to wind the threads on the previously coated with glue Balloons... As a result, we get several large multi-colored cocoons. After waiting for the glue to dry completely, remove the ball from the cocoon. To do this, it should be carefully pierced with a needle and pulled out through one of the cells.

Beauty, and more!

As a result, we have a weightless openwork product in the form of a ball made of multi-colored threads. Now this ball should be cut into two hemispheres, and each of them, in turn, processed with scissors, rounding the edges in the form of flower petals. Thus, each of the balls will bring us two bright wonderful elegant flowers. Such flowers from threads with their own hands for children can be an excellent decoration of the room for the holiday.

If you want your products to look even more elegant, you can decorate them with small rhinestones on top or sprinkle with colored varnish.

Human imagination is limitless. All options children's creativity do not count. Variety will always be interesting to the child. Thread appliques are another version of children's creativity. Having started a passion for such creativity back in kindergarten By complicating the pictures and improving the technique, this type of application will be interesting even in high school.

The technique of making children's appliqués from knitting threads is simple, it arose as a way out after the macrame technique - the remnants of the macrame were used for applique work.

The development of children's motor skills, imagination, acquaintance with the world around, colors, shapes - what an applique made of threads and glue can give. You can depict everything that the soul desires: birds, animals, insects, nature. Thanks to such original technique a kitten, for example, can become fluffy and squishy. For work, you can use templates or your own drawings. Finished work can be placed on burlap and framed. Such a gift will be appreciated.

Graceful kitty

V senior group kindergarten will be an interesting applique made of threads on cardboard "Cat". Let's imagine a master class on how to do the work.

Materials: cardboard, pencil, scissors, PVA glue with a brush, several colors of thread for knitting. The colors can be chosen according to your taste, but they must correspond to the possible natural color of the cat.

Let's get started:

1. Fold the threads several times and cut them to a length of no more than 1 cm. So with each color. We take ready template silhouette of a cat, draw it or print it. Now everything is ready to decorate the picture.

2. The next step is to transfer the picture to the cardboard. To do this, simply outline it on cardboard. We draw lines that will demarcate different colors cats. We draw eyes, nose and mouth. The photo shows an example with ready-made parts that can be bought at a craft store or cut from an unnecessary toy.

3. Let's start gluing the wool. For maximum neatness of work, we apply glue to all areas of the same color and apply threads. Then let's move on to another color and so on. It is recommended to apply light threads at the beginning, and the darkest ones at the end.

4. The cat is almost ready. In order for the work not to deform, we leave it under pressure for a day. For example, under a stack of books. Further, only the decor remained. We glue the mustache from the remnants of woolen threads. If you wish, you can make the cat look more elegant by gluing a bow.

Original dandelion

For schoolchildren, a more complex manner of execution will be interesting, which includes different types appliques, taking into account the thread applique. Let's show on the example of the painting "Dandelion".

Materials for work: glue, scissors, pencil, woolen thread for knitting yellow and green colors, paints, toothbrush, colored paper green or herbarium of dandelion leaves, a sheet of white cardboard.

Let's start the manufacturing process:

1. Let's prepare the background of the picture. For this we take toothbrush and with the help watercolor paints we make splashes of both yellow and green colors.

3. Take a green woolen thread for knitting. Fold up several times and cut small pieces no more than one centimeter.

4. On the previously harvested dandelion leaves, glue the cut threads.

5. Cut the stems out of green colored paper and glue them onto the prepared background.

6. Form a bush. We glue the leaves and the bases of the buds (sepals) from the previously cut green threads.

7. Take a piece of paper, fold it several times and wind a yellow woolen thread in one direction.

8. Carefully remove the yellow thread and tie tightly in the middle.

9. Cut the threads on both sides and fluff the bud.

10. Repeat points 7, 8 and 9. There should be as many buds as petals were glued to the picture.

11. The final point will be attaching the buds.

More simple and easy option baby thread applique can be another option. It can be used in preschool institutions... We print out the dandelion pattern. We take finely cut yellow and green threads, glue. Liberally grease the template with glue and glue the threads.

There are many developmental activities for children. The constant performance of one lesson can get boring for the child, so they need to be changed and something new added. To diversify the kid's leisure time, you can offer to make an applique from threads. Such an activity will captivate and will interesting child, and will also bring a lot of benefits.

Crafts develop fine motor skills, stimulate the imagination and introduce children to the world around them. The themes of the images can be anything you want: nature, animals, birds, flowers, seasons and much more. The works are quite unusual and original. And thanks to the threads, the pictures become fluffy and soft, which greatly attracts the attention of children.

Thread applications on cardboard are distinguished not only by the subject of the images, but also by the method of execution. These appliqués can be made from twisted, cut threads or embroidered with a needle. For a better understanding of the technique of making such fakes, we will consider a few examples below.

Applique of threads on cardboard on the theme of autumn

Consider a thread master class in kindergarten. Such a lesson helps to improve the memory and imagination of children when making an applique.

So, for work you will need: white cardboard, pencil, scissors, glue, woolen threads of different colors, glue brush.

Rowan branch

First you need to prepare the threads. We fold the thread several times and carefully cut it.

We lay out the resulting pieces in different vases, depending on the color. Then we take cardboard and draw a template, in this case it is a rowan branch. Now let's start designing the applique. First, we glue the rowan branches with whole threads.

After that, you need to thickly grease the drawing with glue.

And we begin to fill in the drawing, laying out the leaves with threads.

Then you need to leave the craft to dry. After a few hours, you need to shake the applique, thereby removing the unsticked threads. The work is ready.

It is possible to create appliqués from threads not only in kindergarten. Even in home environment the child will be happy to make an applique from woolen threads with his own hands. Initially, of course, he will need the help of an adult, but after a while he will be able to create on his own.

Children love such fakes due to their unusualness and softness, not to mention the beauty of the resulting works. And the creation process brings a lot of positive emotions.

Application of threads on cardboard "Cat"

For work you need: cardboard or paper for the base of the applique, pencil, glue, scissors, brush, thread.

The first thing to do is prepare the threads. They must be finely and neatly cut. First, we glue the outline of the cat with a dark thread to make it brighter. Now you need to coat the cat's template with a thick layer of glue. And carefully we begin to glue the cut threads, without going beyond the outline of the drawing. Let the applications dry for several hours, then shake off the threads that have not adhered. This is how easy it is to perform the Cat applique.

In conclusion, I would like to note that it is not so difficult to create beautiful, bright and fluffy pictures. Cutted thread applique for children is a great opportunity not only to take the child's time, but also to develop various skills and abilities. So amazing that regular thread can be used not only for knitting and sewing, but also for making such unusual fakes. Moreover, both the smallest children and older children will be able to make such applications. The manufactured products can be placed in a frame and decorate the interior of the room. Examples of other thread applications.
