How to make a tulip with your own hands: master classes using paper, beads, felt, cardboard

People love to make and receive gifts. One of the main ones are flowers.

They are comfortable and picturesque, attractive and dressy. Perhaps just buy in a store is too easy and trivial.

In that case, you can make your own hands. Let's analyze the manufacture of flowers on the example of a tulip.

Methods and schemes of tulip making with their own hands

What are the types of creating a tulip with their own hands? Obviously, it is an origami technique. Given that there is a variant of the flower from polymer clay, this technique involves water. The techniques are different.

How to make a tulip from different materials

Tulip can be made from absolutely different materials. Corrugated paper, beads, cardboard, plastic, ribbons, felt and so on. Let's consider the ways of making it.

Applications of colored paper

We will need: paper, cardboard, openwork napkin.

Scheme of creation:

1. From a rectangular leaf cut a template of a tulip;
2. On the basis of his do flowers in the required amount;
3. Cut out;
4. Staple it together. In order to get the volume element;
5. Glue the tissue on the cardboard;
6. Fix the flowers to the cloth;
7. We add a stalk - a green double-sided paper cut out in a rectangular manner;
8. Decorate the scene in any way you want. For example, you can tie a ribbon. To do this, cut out a strip of paper and glue it to the applique.

Tulip of corrugated paper

Corrugated paper is a material designed for decoration and applied creativity. They differ in the degree of corrugation. Corrugation represents a wave. Thanks to it, the relief of the paper is created.

We will need: corrugated paper, scissors, tape.

Scheme:

1. Cut strips of approximately the same size;
2. Cut strips visually divide into two parts. The first stays untouched, the second scroll through 360 degrees;
3. Fold the twisted part into two parts;
4. Petals, strips, tie to the base of the planned bud with duct tape;
5. The uncurled part should be on top, as this will allow you to create voluminous leaves;
6. Let's cut the green paper into strips and wrap it up;
7. Fix it with scotch tape at the base of the bud.

Voila, the tulip is ready. Now you can decorate your bouquet in any way you want.

If you were planning to give as a gift, the main thing that style suited the person to whom you were going to give it.

Paper in the origami technique

We will need: paper, preferably double sided. If you do not want to paint the second side, colored paper on both sides will be more necessary than ever.

Scheme of manufacture:

1. The current paper is folded in half. It is best if the format is A4, as this will allow scope in the process of creation. We fold diagonally, bend, cut off the excess. The end result is a square;
2. The resulting square also bend on the other diagonal.
3. Unfold the leaflet. At this stage of the creation you should have at least eight triangles;
4. Fold the sheet in half;
5. Bend in the direction of the fold line corner;
6. We put the workpiece base up;
7. Wings of a piece of paper folded so that their corners are connected;
8. The same must be done on the other side.
9. We hide one wing of paper in the other, first flipping to the right on both sides;
10. Repeat the same with the other;
11. The main thing in this technique is not to forget to carefully straighten the folds;
12. To turn in a three-dimensional tulip is simple. In the hole, which is located at the base, you need to let the air in;
13. Bend the leaves of the tulip.

In addition to the tulip itself you need to make something on which it will rest. This is the stem. Consider how it can be made. The technique is very simple: we take the paper, fold it into a thin strip, put it in a slot at the base of the flower.

From cardboard

Cardboard is an indispensable part for creativity. Just right when you want to make something out of paper, but it should hold its shape and be stable. Let us learn how to make a flower with cardboard. For this we will need: cardboard itself, ribbons, glue, scissors and a pencil.

If you wish, you can use different stencils. There are with wings on the sides, there are pure tulips.

All the necessary templates you can find on the World Wide Web, that is, on the Internet. Well, we will consider making from a standard image. Meaning when in flat form, on the sides the petals are curved to the side, and in the center of the triangle.

Scheme of making:

1. Draw a template on cardboard;
2. Cut it out;
3. Draw our template, now with the addition of wings on the sides;
4. Let's cut it out;
5. Let's glue the second part to the template;
6. In the form of a strip let's make a stem and in an oval shape a leaf. Let's connect;
7. Stalk with the leaf glued to the base;
8. Next, with the utmost accuracy make a pair of holes in the previously made second part of the template;
9. Let's slip any colorful ribbon
10. Tie a bow.

As an option, inside we can add a treat or a message. Using the second option, you can make an original declaration of love for February 14.

With beads

Let's look at creating a tulip beaded tulip on the basis of a brooch.

Materials required:

1. Beads that have a perfect hole;
2. Glossy beads;
3. Large size beads;
4. Rhinestones;
5. felt;
6. Thread;
7. Needle;
8. Tweezers;
9. Glue with a high temperature;
10. Fabric.

Scheme of creation:

1. Create a template for yourself;
2. Transfer the template to the product, whether it is felt or ordinary thick fabric;
3. Arrange the beads as desired;
4. Sew one bead at a time, not several at a time;
5. When you have finished sewing, make the clasp;
6. Cut out the tulip pattern on a tighter base;
7. Transfer the flower to the base with glue;
8. Add the clasp.

Made of felt

Felt is a type of high-density felt made from rabbit down. In today's world, there is felt made from man-made fabric with a melted polyethylene terephthalate (polyester) and from bamboo.

Materials required:

1. Felt;
2. Filling;
3. Tape;
4. Wooden sticks;
5. Thread.

Making:

1. From the pattern templates, cut out the felt. You can use any templates. In this case the standard leaf, bud, and stem will be used;
2. Stitch each flower from a pair of parts;
3. Stems, folded in half, also stitch;
4. Fill in the tulips.

The filler can be seeds, groats, decorative pebbles, dried fragrant grasses, fabric remnants. It is best to use hollofiber. Hollofiber is a material of artificial origin, based on thermoplastic polyester:

5. We place a stick or sticks in the stem. It is best if it is made of wood, because the stability will be just right.
6. We intervene in the base of the flower and tighten it up tight;
7. Finally, sew on the leaf.

From plastic spoons

Another type of creativity with flowers is the construction of tulips from plastic material. It is important to remember that it is not necessary to get carried away with the work with plastic. Since it is important to preserve the ecology and the health of our planet.

We will need:

1. Plastic spoons;
2. Fatty wire;
3. Adhesives;
4. Paint.

Algorithm of making:

• First, let's change the color of the spoons themselves. To do this, if desired, we will paint them with paint. Next, let's make for each spoon a felt with a size of approximately 4 by 11 cm respectively.
• Twist the workpieces into a roll and fasten it using adhesive tape. Let's glue the blank to the spoon.
• Fold in the tulips, and wrap the threads.
• Fill and fix the leaves around the spoon with tape.
• Tulips are ready.

If you need to develop a stately bouquet, then repeat all the above steps. For a voluminous bouquet, it is best to add more flowers and felt.

From satin ribbons.

Satin ribbons were invented in honor of sparkling, resplendent products. They are a textile product in which the raw material is viscose silk.

We will need:

1. Silicone glue;
2. felt;
3. Tweezers;
4. A lighter;
5. A set of cotton swabs;
6. Stamens;
7. Narrow red ribbon;
8. Scissors;
9. Satin ribbon about 3 cm.

The bud can be made initially by dividing the ribbon into four pairs:

• Make semicircles, trim the edges with a lighter. At the opposite corner of the ribbon make a small fold and fix over the fire.
• Fix the stamens on a stick of absorbent cotton, attach the petals in rows. Petals should not be too many or too few. Perhaps the golden half is if one row will be at least three, and approximately eight in the other.
• Leaflets make a little more than the petals, process over a fire.
• Fold the blanks in half, with the help of the fire we will get the middle vein.

For the tulip we need plus or minus three leaves.

From a plastic bottle

Before throwing away plastic leftovers, think about why you should not give things a second life.

We will need:

1. A plastic bottle;
2. A candle

Manufacturing: we cut out the desired shape of a petal using a template, light a fire, under the influence of high temperature we achieve the desired shape. At the end, we connect the resulting blanks into one and get an original tulip.

From polymer clay

Polymer clay is a material based on polyvinyl chloride. Features: plasticity, hardness. It is similar to plasticine, but more difficult to work with, due to its high pouring rate. When heated to a temperature of 100-130 degrees Celsius, it is possible to successfully fix the clay.

Scheme of making:

1. We mold the petals in the form of oval plates;
2. In a similar way we get the leaves. The difference is that in the middle it is necessary to make a receding line;
3. Twist stem;
4. Assemble the bud;
5. Connect all the pieces prepared step by step. Four petals - bud, stem - leaves.

From plasticine

This method of creation is similar to modeling from polymer clay:

1. Create all the necessary blanks, that is, petals, leaves, stems;
2. Let's make a bud. Apply the very first petal to the base of the flower, and then all the rest;
3. Connect the blanks and we get a nice little tulip.

People of all ages are very happy to make flower sculptures. Perhaps this is the most common type of gift, decorating the design of the room.

What products can be made from dried and living buds? Such a question everyone has asked. After reading the article and learning that there are many different original ways to create tulips, and by analogy other types of flowers, another question interests me. Where are the boundaries in the invention of the beautiful?
