Making small flowers from foamiran

You can make beautiful and miniature flowers yourself. To do this, you need to prepare consumables, tools and choose a suitable master class. To make an attractive and practical plant-themed craft, many craftswomen use foamiran.

If you want to make an original decorative element with your own hands, pay attention to such a type of needlework as flowers from fiomiran. It is a porous material that is often used for various crafts. It is convenient to work with it, which is why even beginners can make a beautiful craft. The main thing is to make efforts and follow the chosen master class exactly.

Small flowers from foamiran will be a wonderful interior decoration. They can also be used to decorate clothes and accessories.

Foamiran is an elastic and innovative canvas with a porous texture. It can be given any shape that will last for a long time. This material can be bought at a handicraft store in a large variety of colors and textures. It is affordable and sold in sheet or roll format.

Small flowers will add originality and elegance to a simple hairstyle. And ordinary decorations, supplemented with artificial plant elements, will become many times more interesting, attractive and expressive.

Before you start making crafts, you need to prepare the following:

• foamiran of the desired shade, it is recommended to choose a thin material for flowers (thickness up to 1 millimeter);
• teip tape;
• scissors;
• flexible wire;
• a set of brushes for painting;
• paints to make the product more realistic;
• decorative elements: beads, rhinestones;
• a piece of sponge;
• glue gun;
• hole punch with a nozzle of the required shape;
• patterns and stencils.

This is an expanded list of items you might need. The exact list depends on which master class you choose.

To make neat and pretty flowers with your own hands, you need to prepare:

• white and green foamiran;
• sharp scissors;
• dark green teip tape;
• special curly hole punch in the form of flowers;
• wire;
• artificial stamens;
• oil pastels (you need at least 2 colors);
• a sheet of paper (you can use old newspapers or magazines);
• mold in the form of a sheet.

First you need to cut a strip from the white material. Width - 2.5 centimeters. This is due to the fact that the hole punch makes flowers in the size of 2.3 centimeters. You can choose any parameters, depending on the materials used.

Next, you need to cut off the same tape, only from paper. It will come in handy when working with a curly hole punch. The porous material will get stuck in it during cutting.

We take a hole punch in our hands and cut the foamiran. The more colors you want to make, the more blanks you will need.

Using pastels, you need to give the colors the desired shade. We decorate the core with one shade, and the petals with another.

In our case, we'll use pink and green. Here's what you get as a result. You can choose any other color.

To make the products look natural, we will give them the desired shape. We'll need an iron. We turn it on, choose a gentle mode, for example, "silk", wait until it heats up, and apply each blank to it for a few seconds. The temperature will raise the petals. If done correctly, the flowers will look like this.

Now we supplement the buds with stamens. We put them inside each flower and fix it with glue. This is how the blanks will look like.

We begin to make out the stalk. Here we need a green ribbon, unwind a little.

We collect a bunch of three colors and start wrapping the legs.

Apply a piece of wire and continue decorating with a green ribbon.

Add flowers as you go to create an element like this.

If desired, you can combine the two branches into one. You will get a lush and miniature bouquet.

Now we need the leaves. Cut out two shapes from the green canvas. To make them look realistic, we will give them the necessary shape using a mold.

The cut blanks must be heated with an iron, applied to the mold and pressed. As a result, streaks will appear on the leaves.

Wrap the pieces of wire tightly with green tape and glue the blanks to the leaves. Here's what you should get.

We connect all the elements together. The handmade product is ready.

For work you will need:

• a set of stacks and a figured hole punch;
• base material of any color (for leaves and petals);
• thick paper or cardboard;
• iron;
• glue gun.

MK looks like this.

First you need to make a template for crafts. Cut out a blank for leaves from cardboard. The elements should be compact (3 centimeters will be quite enough). Cut out leaves from green foamiran using a template.

To give the leaves an expressive appearance, they need to be treated with a stack. Using this tool, we make veins on the leaves by the method of drawing along and pressing.

Using a hole punch, we make flowers. The maximum diameter is up to 3 centimeters.

For an attractive appearance of the buds, you need to make small indentations on the petals, cuts (in the photo of the finished product you can see what shape the petals should be).

Each petal must be heated with an iron. It is necessary to keep the material under the influence of temperature no more than 10 seconds.

The flowers can now be picked and fixed with glue. Gather several buds together to make a flower. The petals at the edges must be carefully rounded, and the central ones must be lifted up.

This is how the finished roses will look like.

We reviewed master classes for beginners. Accurately following the instructions, you can effortlessly make an original craft. If you do not have a curly hole punch, you can make elements from a template. In this case, it will take more time.

• Do not keep the material under the iron for a long time. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures will ruin the foamiran.
• If you want the products to look as natural as possible, use molds (shapes to give the material a special texture).
• Use a sturdy wire that won't break during the craft process.
• You can use regular glue instead of a glue gun, but if you are going to improve your skills in this skill, it is recommended to purchase this device.
• Decorative elements can add charm and elegance to the product, but an excessive amount of them will look rude.
• Artificial stamens and other tools that will be needed during work can be purchased at any craft store.

• A neat and lush bouquet of small flowers. Contrasting tones work great together.

• Small multi-colored roses with which you can decorate hair accessories.

• Bright purple flowers in miniature will be a wonderful addition to your hairstyle.

• Bouquet of colorful artificial flowers.

• Violet and white botanical elements look delicate and feminine. It will not be difficult to make such a product.

• In this case, the craft was used to design a hair hoop. The result is an attractive and stylish accessory.

• Stylish elastic bands with roses made of porous material.

• Another option for colorful decoration using small decorative elements.

• Chamomile with juicy light green leaves. The craftswoman supplemented them with ordinary hair ties.

• Expressive handmade jewelry made from affordable materials. The craftswoman combined several rich shades in one product.

• Judging by the exquisite and natural appearance, these roses are the handiwork of an experienced craftswoman. Such flowers will not go unnoticed by those around them.
