Flowers from satin ribbons

It is not difficult to make roses from satin ribbons with your own hands. You will need a ribbon of the necessary width, thread, needle, scissors. Spread the ribbon, bend the right end to yourself at an angle of 45 degrees. Fold the fold in small stitches. Do the same on the left side (as if folding a paper airplane). Turn the resulting corner to the right, again fold the tape and secure it with stitches. Sew the remaining free side to make a square with a hole in the middle. After that, fold the tape in the same way in a circle (only 4-6 circles). The remaining tip is twisted in the direction away from you and pass through the center. Fix it with threads from the wrong side. Done!

A nice flower can be done in another way. Cut the ribbon to the desired length, fold it in half along. Sew the edges with even stitches. Pull out the thread to make wrinkles. Lay out the tape in a circle, hiding the tips on the wrong side. Each turn, fix several stitches from the wrong side. Repeat until the desired size of the product.

Accessories with flowers: brooch and necklace

Now you can make flowers from satin ribbons by yourself. How to use them? The easiest way to use it is as a brooch. Sew (or glue) on the back of the flower a circle of dense fabric or felt. Secure the big pin and wear a new brooch. You can make an elegant necklace that perfectly complements the evening outfit. To do this, you will need a satin ribbon, a chain, a piece of felt. Make 3 flowers according to any of the schemes described above. Cut out the felt base from the felt, fix the flowers on it (glue or threads). On each side of the composition, attach the end of the chain.

Accessories with flowers: bezel and bracelet

The trendy trend of the summer season of 2013 is the rim-wreath. Now you can create it in one evening. Just decorate any thin rim with satin flowers. And in addition to it, create a "floral" bracelet. To wear such beauty should be with a dress in the floor or a light sundress. It turns out a romantic and very feminine image.

We decorate clothes, shoes and bags

Colors of ribbons can decorate anything you like. Hem skirt, neckline, handbag, belt and even sandals. The main thing is to be guided by your own taste and not overdo it. The larger the elements of the decor, the less should be. Small flowers are scattered or in the form of a pattern, large - pointwise. It is desirable that they differ from the background in color, otherwise they will merge.

We hope that you have a desire to buy satin ribbons and create unique accessories from them!
