Dining table decoration
To decorate the dining table, do-it-yourself fabric crafts, for which you need the following: skewers, colored fabric strips, thread matching ribbons, needles, glue gun, scissors with a wavy or zigzag blade, beautiful buttons or beads.
Now follow certain steps in sequence:
- make a blank of strips of fabric measuring 25x5 cm, along the perimeter cut it with scissors with a wavy or zigzag blade so that the edge is not straight;
- Fold the prepared strip of fabric in half with the wrong side inward. Bastefully collect the resulting double folded edge of the fabric. Basting stitches should be the same so that the flower is symmetrical and neat. Pull the fabric at the very end of the basting so that the ends of the fabric are connected to form a circle. Sew the ends of the fabric, at the points of their connection.
- insert the skewer inside the fabric circle, between their seams, and fix with glue.
- decorate the core beautifully with beads or shiny buttons with a glue gun, at the same time hiding the seam.
Women's jewelry made of fabric
For fabric decor you will need: stretch or lycra of bright colors, a decorative chain, clasps or miniature clasps, glue gun, nippers and scissors.
Now we begin the process itself.
Tissue preparation. Cut the fabric into strips 1-1.5 cm wide. Take them by the edges and stretch them in length so that the edge is wrapped in the form of a cord.
The weaving process. Weaving can be done in various ways without restrictions and established rules. You can even use the technique of weaving baubles or use knitting needles (crochet), or simply weave braids.
The more confused the elements, the more spectacular and fashionable it will look. Remember to leave small ends to attach them to the chain.
Chain mount. Attach the woven creation to the chain, choosing the desired length of the necklace. Make a clasp or lock on a chain.
Fabric toys
Fabric toys are still in fashion. For example, a couple of tilde bears, he and she. To do this, prepare: 2 pieces of white calico in the amount of 2 pcs. 30x30 cm, a flap of calico with a fine pattern in blue, a flap of coarse calico with a fine pattern in pink, threads of matching colors, synthetic winterizer (silicone or holofiber), a simple pencil, scissors, needles, cutting paper, a sewing machine (but you can also sew manually) .
Coarse calico of white color needs to be repainted in light beige color. It's darker for him, lighter for her. This mixture will help you: in 3 cups boiling water you need to dissolve 3 tsp. coffee and 1 tsp PVA glue and rock salt.
In it, you need to immerse the fabric and hold for dyeing until the mixture cools naturally. After that, straighten the fabric, dry it and iron it.
To get a light tone, instead of coffee, use bagged tea in the amount of 2-3 bags.
Prepare patterns for the future product in advance, cut the fabric over them. Control the direction of the fabric during the pattern.
Sew the same paired items on a typewriter or sew them by hand. Hearts need to be stitched and turned out through the hole left for this.
At the seams, it is enough to leave no more than 3 cm of fabric, it is better to cut off the excess.
Note!
We fill all the received elements with a synthetic winterizer or material similar to it. For your convenience, you should do this in the process of stitching elements.
Do not overfill the arms and legs of the product to make it easy to seat.
Stitch the elements of the product from top to bottom. First, ears to the head, then a head with a torso. The paws are fixed with hidden seams, threads in tone of fabric to make invisible.
The eyes and nose of the bears must be embroidered with threads in the form of nodules. Cheeks highlight the usual decorative blush. Patches and hearts are attached to finished products, having previously filled them with a synthetic winterizer.
Crafts-flowers
Basically, flowers are made from worn baby clothes made from natural cotton fabrics, as children grow quickly and the clothes remain.
Note!
Bright fabrics with floral or vegetable colors are ideal, a graphic pattern will also work.
For cutting fabric you will need patterns. Cut two large flowers from them, four smaller ones and one of the felt fabric for the base of the flower, which will support the petals and form the appearance.
On a felt base, lay a couple of the largest petals, then as the other petals decrease in size, fold the four petals four times.
Lock the petals together, either manually or with a clipper. To design the center, tighten the button with a cloth and sew in the center. An ordinary button, beads or beads will do.
Fabric panel
In the form of crafts for the home, create a panel of fabric. This is not at all difficult to do. There is enough desire and imagination, and this can be realized with the help of improvised materials.
From denim, you can create many DIY crafts: jewelry, toys, bags, wallets, paintings and more.
Note!
Crafts made of fabric can be presented to children, relatives, friends and acquaintances. A gift made with love and do it yourself is the best!
