As a result, we will get such a beautiful brooch as in the photo. What kind of materials do we need for this:
• A wide blue satin ribbon, 4-5 cm wide, approximately 0.5 meters will be needed;
• Satin pink and white ribbons, the width of the ribbons is 2.5 cm, and the length is about 25 cm each;
• Blue acrylic cabochon;
• Preparation of a hair clip;
• Scissors;
• Glue gun;
• Lighter;
• Ruler;
• Pencil;
• White thread and needle;
• Tweezers.
So let's get started. We take satin ribbons, a ruler, a pencil and scissors. We will measure out the base squares for the petals. From blue tape we measure squares measuring 5*5 cm, and from pink and white tape we measure 2.5*2.5 cm. We cut approximately 10 to 15 squares of each color. It all depends on how many petals you want in your flower.
Now take a lighter and burn all the squares with it. The bases for the petals are ready.
Take the blue square and fold it diagonally.
Now we fold it diagonally again and so on a third time.
We take tweezers, insert the petal into it and cut it off from the bottom and side with sharp scissors. Use a lighter to follow the cut edges.
We straighten the petal. Now take the pink square and fold it diagonally.
Then fold it again. It turns out not three, but two times. And also fold the white square twice.
We place the white square 2-3 mm lower than the pink petal and fold them together again. The petal turns out to be thick, so it is better to immediately take it with tweezers. Cut off the bottom and one edge with scissors.
We burn the cut edges with a lighter. Unfold and straighten the petal. Thus, we get a white-pink double petal, only it is half the size of the blue petal.
We make the required number of both petals in this order. Now, using a glue gun, we glue in the white and pink blue petals, and we get a flower petal like the one in the photo.
I get a flower from ten such petals, so we make ten accordingly. Then we sew them together with a thread and a needle, forming a flower. Now we cut a small square from the blue ribbon, then round it and process it with a lighter. This circle will be the bottom of the flower. We turn the flower over and glue the backing with a gun.
The bottom of the flower is ready, turn it over and glue a blue cabochon in the center.
All we have to do is glue the flower onto the clip and we're done. This is how we independently made an accessory that will perfectly complement any little princess’ dress. Thank you all so much and good luck in the process!
