Sewing decorations: easy, fresh, stylish

To pick up accessories for appearance on people is a matter of painstaking, demanding taste. This outfit needs to be supplemented with active bracelets, that "weight" with the help of a necklace, and then a dress made of crepe-chiffon - add lightness with a long gold chain. Surely many girls in jewelry boxes are dusting ornaments that were worn only a couple of times, and then they forgot themselves, there is no suitable clothing ... And their favorite costume jewelry is very small - the collection is limited to a pair of coulombs. Then their company can perfectly join, say, the soutache necklace. Each girl will find something in the world of soutache for herself, even one that has become accustomed to asceticism in ornaments. So, what are southeast decorations? Let's understand!

Where did this come from

The very word "soutache" gives something eastern, spicy. Indeed, many ornaments came to us from the east - we know the desire of women there for beauty. But this technique was born in exquisite France, in times of high white wigs, corsets for aspen waists and lush skirts. Women's suits were decorated with sashes. Then the find in fashion sailed to the Netherlands, where it was interpreted in its own way. And, finally, after long wanderings, southetic jewelry was brought to Russia. True, men also had the right to wear such accessories. In the end, southeastern jewelry began to be forgotten, to retreat into the past ... And only recently the forces of Israeli designers have found a new life.

Sewing ornaments: masters' technique

What are these accessories? Their basis is a twisted, intertwined tape for soutazha and beads, as well as all kinds of stones (counterfeits, semiprecious and even the most real precious minerals and artificial materials). The suture tape is an elastic thin shiny cord, similar to the braid "dragon tail". The tape can be twisted into a spiral, bent by eights, braided with stones and beads, intertwined with other laces and so on. Such decorations usually turn out to be voluminous and look rich with a successful choice of stones and laces. Also it is worth remembering that the first time a masterpiece may not work out - you need a knack. Therefore, train as much as possible, and soon you will get really neat tender jewelry.

Sewing jewelry: a master class for needlewomen. How to get started?

They can be found very much, but you should always remember a few rules. In the center of the composition is often a large stone. So, to sew it, first glue it on felt. Then we begin to coat it with tape, piercing exactly in the middle. When the first turn is completed, we round it with a bead. Then cut the cord and cauterize it. It is important to fix the ends on the back of the felt. It is necessary to put shoelaces and belts much longer than required by this element. Do not be afraid to twist the suture tape. The main thing - always fix it on the felt and cauterize the ends. Supplement the decoration with beads - these are not only decor elements, but also a way to tie ribbons together. When the composition is complete, glue the paper backing on the felt to cover all the ends, and on it - the leather workpiece is a bit bigger.

With what to wear ornaments?

The main thing is not to lose. Because you can find something weightless, magical, charming, and you can stumble upon a lurid and tasteless. And still you can and the most elegant decoration, and the most beautiful outfit to spoil the wrong choice. So, what to wear with sutuzhnymi ornaments? Necklaces made in this technique visually increase the chest, so it can be both a useful decoration, and vice versa. The more modest the figure of the dress, the more spectacular will look suto adornments. Try to enter them into the style of Kazuhal: wear with shirts and jeans.

Sewing embroidery - decoration of your clothes

Here you should remember everything that was said about jewelry from soutache in general. If you have not yet reached perfection in making necklaces, bracelets, beads and pendants - do not risk to do it on your favorite blouse, because this technique is more complicated than simple sutna decorations. Schemes - filigree patterns - are applied to the fabric, and then sewed with sutured belts with absolute precision. There are several options. The first is to cover the whole surface of the product with embroidery. Then you need a simple pattern and a minimum of ribbon colors. It will look laconic and at the same time expensive. The second is to embroider a collar. Now very fashionable such collars, which in themselves are ornaments. So here you can give vent to fantasy. If properly designed, such a blouse is not a shame to be put on and in the office. You can also embroider something like a necklace directly on the dress. If you have problems with the figure, then do not get involved in large forms of southeast embroidery, as they visually increase all the problem areas. And the unfortunate drawing or its arrangement also will not add to you an attraction - only age. What is good about sewing embroidery is that it is possible to save a favorite thing if it has any defects or is simply fed up with it.

How much does this beauty cost?

Of course, hand-made jewelry is priceless, because it is unique. All materials can be purchased at quite decent prices. But the crafts of craftsmen, bought in their professional workshops or on the Internet, made to order, will fly you into a pretty penny. Since this is laborious hard work, sutna jewelry will cost you in the amount of three thousand rubles. However, the impression is worth it.
