Rose from the tape yourself: a master class

A beautiful rose from ribbon made by own hands will be an excellent addition to a postcard or decorate a gift bag. A ribbon with such a rose can be tied up with a bouquet of fragrant real roses. The way colors are made from ribbon and fabric is the same, therefore, having learned how to make buds from ribbons, you can easily make the same beautiful flowers from fabric. Roses from a fabric can be used as an ornament of an evening dress or to attach to hair, like a beauty Carmen.

How to make roses from the ribbon? There is no single step-by-step instruction here. It is not surprising: buds and rose petals can look absolutely different. Nevertheless, there are general recommendations and algorithms for performing this laborious decorative work.

Select a ribbon that is just a little less than a meter in length and 7 cm in width. Using relatively long and wide ribbons, you will quickly learn how to perform colors. In the future, you can choose the size of the ribbon, but we recommend that you keep the specified proportions so that the rose looks most naturally and harmoniously. Fold the tape in half so that its front side is outside. Sew it from the corner to the folded edge, then continue sewing stitches to the opposite upper corner. The ends of the thread must remain free. Next, you should pull the thread at one end and "collect" the flower. Wrap the tape in one turn to form a central bud and fasten the structure with a few stitches. Wrap the tape around the bud and fasten each turn. Go to the edge of the tape - and you will see that the ribbon in your hands has turned into a lovely flower. If you have done everything as described above, then you should get a rose from the ribbon, which did not fully bloom, a fragile flower that until recently was a closed bud.

Now you in general already know how to make roses from a ribbon, so the next rose can be made more miniature and elegant. To do this, take a satin decorative ribbon with a length of 50 cm and a width of 25 mm. To form the core of a magnificent, until the end of the blossoming flower, bend one corner of the tape at a right angle. Then fix the bent corner of your tape with ordinary stitches. If you bend the right corner, then twist the tape now from right to left, if left - from left to right. The number of revolutions depends solely on your desire and imagination. The more turns you wind, the more splendid the rose from the ribbon will turn out. The next step will be to fix the flower with sturdy stitches. Remember: to attach a more voluminous rose, more stitches are needed. Now that the bulk of the flower is ready, it's time to start forming the middle lobes. Bend back a piece of tape left free, in the opposite direction of the tube. Carefully fix the petals with a needle. That the rose from a tape did not scatter, periodically pierce a needle with a thread all design of a flower. The upper edge of the tape should always remain at the upper edge of the inner tube of the rose or just above it. The final touch will be "prisborivnie" ribbon-roses as you did when you performed the first flower.

If you do not plan to decorate the roses with roses or clothes, you can make a tree from the ribbon and attach roses to it. The bush of roses, made of ribbons, looks original and elegant. You will need a stick, colored thread, lacquer, glue, a piece of paper and a green satin ribbon. Wrap the wand with threads and varnish. Crumple a piece of paper into a ball of such a shape as you would like to see the crown of the tree. Wrap the ball thread and spread with liquid glue. Slice the green ribbon in small strips, twist each strip into a small flashlight. Make just as many flashlights that they can cover, "veil" the paper ball, and glue them on the surface of the ball. The tree from the ribbon is ready! Decorate it with roses and give it to a friend!
