Butterfly made from ribbons
With the help of technology kanzashi You can create an endless variety of original jewelry with your own hands. You just need to learn the basics, and it’s not difficult at all. This master class shows how to make a beautiful butterfly from the simplest kanzashi petals: round and sharp from two layers of ribbon. For this you will need:
1. 20 cm each of satin and brocade ribbon, 5 cm wide.
2. Kanzashi tool kit: scissors, lighter, tweezers and glue gun.
3. Accessories for decorating and securing the finished product.
All elements will be made from square pieces of tape. In total you will need 4 squares of each color.
The wings for the butterfly will consist of round and sharp kanzashi petals. First, let's make a double hot wing. To do this, a piece of brocade ribbon must be folded diagonally and in half.
The resulting triangle also needs to be folded in half, forming a petal.
Its edges need to be cut and scorched with a lighter from the front and bottom.
After glowing with a lighter, the front part is clamped with tweezers to glue all layers of the tape together.
Now you need to prepare the second layer in the same way by folding a triangle of satin ribbon.
Now you can wrap the golden petal with the top layer of ribbon, cut it and singe it.
Double petals can be made in another way. This method is longer, but requires more skill and accuracy. Let's look at the example of making a round petal. Two pieces of tape need to be folded into triangles diagonally and placed on top of each other.
The edges of the petal bend towards the middle.
The sides need to be turned back as shown in the photo.
The excess is cut off from the front and bottom and fixed with a lighter.
This creates a round petal.
With this method, you do not need to do the same steps twice, however, when working with two layers of fabric, you need to carefully ensure that all the bends are parallel to each other.
To make a butterfly you will need two petals of each type.
The butterfly will be secured to a wide invisible hairpin, and the middle can be decorated with a large stone.
Using a well-heated glue gun, two wings on one side are glued together.
Then both sides need to be glued in the middle.
When the wings are connected, you need to glue the middle and fix the butterfly to the hairpin using hot glue.
The hairpin is ready!
With such a butterfly you can decorate any hairpins, elastic bands, headbands, and even make a stylish brooch out of it. The middle can also be formed from any pebbles or beads that are on hand. This way, each butterfly will turn out unique and inimitable. Creative success!
