Good afternoon. What do you do with old things? Are you throwing it away? But in vain, I tell you. You can make beautiful things out of old things crafts for the home and thereby give them a second life. Today I will show you what can be made from old, unnecessary nylon tights and threads. We will make beautiful flowers.
For production we will need:
- Wire.
- Scissors.
- Nylon tights.
- Wool threads for sewing.
- Beads.
- Potty.
- Green and red paint for coloring Easter eggs.
- Pencil.

Now a little preface. Specialized stores sell nylon tights of any color. But if you don’t have multi-colored tights, then don’t worry. Take regular flesh-colored nylon tights and paint for painting Easter eggs. Dilute the paint as written in the instructions and put the tights in it for 10-20 minutes. Then take them out and dry them properly. That's it, you can make crafts from them.

Shall we begin?! Let's take some wire and something round in shape, for example, a jar of gouache (you need jars of different diameters). If you have special molds for making flowers, that's good, but they can easily be replaced with something else.
We bend the wire around the jar and twist it. We get a loop.

Remove the loop from the jar. For one flower we will need five large loops and three small ones.

Now we take the nylon and one loop. We carefully tighten the loop with nylon so that there are no folds, tighten the bottom edge of the nylon with thread to match the color of the nylon, and make a knot. Cut off all excess. Unfortunately, I don't have a photo of me pulling the nylon on. This is what happened.

These blanks are petals. We take one blank and give it the shape of a petal. It's very simple. Using your thumb and forefinger, slightly stretch the petal, and then bend it slightly.

We stretch small pieces more than large ones. We do this with all preparations. Now let's collect the flower. First we twist the three small petals together.

And then we screw on the large petals in a checkerboard pattern.

We make a lot of these flowers at once. We also need to make leaves. We make similar loops and cover them with green nylon. We also shape it with our fingers, the leaves are ready. We make leaves of different sizes, as well as flowers.

Now we collect small twigs from flowers. Take one flower and screw a leaf to it. Then we twist several flowers together. Determine the number yourself.

Now we take green woolen threads and wrap them around the twig so that the wire is not visible.

In this way we make the required number of branches. We will also make curls (that's what I call them). Take a piece of wire, the length depends on the length of the flowers. We wrap the wire with woolen thread. Then we wind it in a spiral around a pencil. Remove from the pencil and stretch it a little. Glue a bead to the end of the curl. You can glue it right away, or later.

A beautiful flower arrangement will always look great on the dining table. If you change the color of the nylon and the shape of the petals, you can make different flowers, the main thing in this matter is your imagination.
Goodbye, see you again.
