How to make chamomile from isolone?

When renovation work is carried out, often material remains for thermal insulation - for example, isolon. There are dozens of ideas for using it. One of them is the creation of daisies.

To create a growth decor in the form of a bouquet, the most unexpected foundations are used. Such decor can often be found as decoration for special occasions and to add coziness to rooms. The isolon daisy-shaped luminaire is made from a material that was originally intended for insulation.

The base for table flowers is distinguished by its high elasticity and cellular structure, it has a variety of shades. The roll has a width of 1 to 2 meters. The thickness is usually between 2 and 10 mm.

Before you start making giant flowers, you should pay attention to the following points.

1. You need to immediately understand for what purpose the material is acquired. For example, you may need different thicknesses in order to make flowers for a festive table or make tall crafts. The larger the flower, the thicker choose the material for its manufacture. For small products, izolon is used, the thickness of which is 2 mm. When creating three-dimensional decorations, it is better to choose an isolon thicker than 3 mm.
2. The quality of the isolon depends on how smooth the surface is.
3. PPE marking is the most suitable for making flowers, as well as for decorating rooms and decorating photo zones.

Chamomile from isolon can be made as a separate independent composition, or placed on the plafond. It all depends on the needs and wishes of the future owner of such a work of art.

The main difference between izolon and other materials is the cheapness of working with it. There is no need to purchase complex and expensive tools.

We need the following list of items:

• tailor's scissors or cutting knife;
• hair dryer (normal or construction);
• paints (acrylic or in a balloon);
• stapler;
• staples;
• threads.

If you wish, you can additionally choose various beads and ribbons, which will later serve as decorative elements.

To make chamomile from isolone with your own hands, you need to clearly understand what we would like to get in the end. We advise you to immediately decide on the intended use of the subject. - whether it will serve as a decoration at a wedding, whether it is needed only for a photo session, or will it become a lamp for everyday needs.

Based on the listed factors, the dimensions of the future object are selected, materials are selected and a preliminary sketch is made. (you can draw on paper how the craft will look schematically). It is also important to decide what shades will be used - they should all be combined with each other.

In master classes, flowers of different sizes are usually shown. You can make a tiny bud, or you can create a whole composition (even as tall as a person). If desired, the decoration is formed into a bouquet, panels are created, or simply flowers are placed on the stems.

The maximum flower size is usually limited to 1 meter.

To make a camomile from an isolone with petals 20 cm long, follow these instructions.

• To shape the petals, you need a volumetric template. To do this, cut out three blanks from cardboard, combine them into the template shown in the photo. The edges should be sealed with tape so that they do not leave a clear mark.

• Cut the petals from the isolon according to the chosen pattern (usually 16 petals are used), if desired, apply green tint on one side, and yellowish on the other. Heat the petal with a hair dryer and attach it to the template. Stretching the isolon slightly, press it against the shape and shape the relief.

• Cut a strip of isolon about 2 cm wide and glue it on the inside. Insert a wire into it - it will serve as a frame: this way each petal will have a rigid shape.

• To make a round base for a flower, pick up a plastic plate or lid and glue the petals on it in 2 rows.

• Cut a 5 cm wide strip from the yellow isolon and cut it with a fringe 150 cm long. Roll into a roll, gluing the layers together. Use scissors to cut the indentation in the center. Pull the center out to the sides, fluffing it up, and glue it in the center of the flower.

• Attach the flower to the stand. It can be a welded structure made of a steel base, a stand made of concrete, a stand from different containers.

Designs for luminaires can also be different - depending on what is being created. You can make both bedside lamps and floor lamps. Installation is provided in a flower pot and on a stand. If you decide to place the future light element in the container, then be sure to fill it with a heavy solution at the base in order to obtain stability. Only after this is the eyeliner laid.

For a wall lamp, a shorter pipe is used, it bends much more compactly. The form depends solely on the imagination of the future owner of the object. The original options are a round or square spiral. A wire must be inserted into the pipe at the final stage. As soon as the lamp is ready, you can immediately hang it on the wall. You will first need to screw in a screw, a hole is drilled in the tube.The plafond is made not only of isolon, foamiran or corrugated paper is allowed.
