Decorating your home is a special pleasure. To create a cozy and romantic decor with your own hands, you need quite a bit: familiar household items, imagination, inspiration and the desire to create something beautiful. Of the most ordinary napkins, sometimes real masterpieces are produced, exuding homely warmth and tenderness.
Decent decor for a lush table
Crafts from do-it-yourself napkins are often made precisely as a kind of decor on the holiday table. The work will be exciting for adults, as well as interesting and informative for children. So, to make a spectacular flower, you must follow the following algorithm:
- The napkin is unfolded, folding flat on the work surface;
- Each corner is turned to the center of the napkin. Thus obtaining something like an envelope;
- Now the corners are laid to themselves. It turns out a voluminous figure. The algorithm is repeated again;
- Now the workpiece is turned over so that the lower canvas is at the top;
- From this side, again turn the corners to the center several times;
- One of the corners is bent inward, and the lower layer is gently pulled in order to give the workpiece a flower shape;
- So four petals are formed;
- The base is prepared for the flower and placed on the table.
To create a decor of paper or napkins, it is better to choose initially bright blanks. It is also important to consider the stylist who dominates the gala event.
Tin can and napkins: a unique duet
Crafts from paper napkins sometimes require the use of various auxiliary elements. In the kitchen of any housewife there is a tin can, where peas or sweet corn were stored. It is this container that will become the basis for the future spectacular vase.
Do-it-yourself decor will decorate any apartment. Before making such an interesting element, it is necessary to prepare all the necessary elements:
- Bank of peas;
- Napkins of different colors;
- Paper towels with a beautiful "embossed" pattern;
- Glue;
- Scissors;
- Pencil or marker;
- A knife.
Crafts from napkins and cans will require more time and effort, but the effect is worth it. In total, you need to process three banks. Two of them need to cut the bottom, forming cylinders. The third tin can remains unchanged.
Jars are inserted into each other, so you do not need to glue them. You need to proceed in stages, pasting the surface with paper towels ball by ball. Moreover, each new ball should form on an already dry surface.
Now for crafts from openwork napkins (a combination of white and scarlet colors is recommended), you need to prepare balls for decor. Volumetric roses can also be made of napkins. The surface is covered with balls, completely covering the canvas. You can decorate a homemade vase with even more complex elements. For example, take large bulk flowers from paper napkins.
Napkin lily
Classic roses and naive daisies are the most popular motifs in modern design. However, for lovers of more original solutions, you can offer to make elegant lilies.
The flowers originally decorate the holiday table.You can make not only decor, but also a fully functional attribute on a festive feast. Making a lily shape a napkin is very easy.
Due to the razlog form, the finished workpiece is used as a stand for cakes, meringues, small rolls. A very small child can make a lily. A white, yellow or purple napkin is placed on the table and each corner is folded to the center, forming a wide core.
Dandelion field
Multilayer flowers from napkins are the most popular trend of recent days. Simple and easy-to-use wipes are an ideal material for these purposes.
Effective wall decor is a panel of dandelions. You need to work step by step. The result is a real picture with a three-dimensional image. Several green, emerald or light green napkins are glued to the working sheet. Better if they are a little dented.
Of the yellow napkins, many squares are cut. They are laid on top of each other in several balls and glued in the center (6-10 rows are enough). Incisions are made along the edges of the impromptu flower, imitating uneven small petals. What cuts will be in depth, the creator of this masterpiece decides.
The main thing is then to fluff the whole composition. Yellow elements should resemble real dandelions. They are placed on an already dry green canvas - an impromptu spring meadow.
Carnations: elegant and unusual
One of the easiest ways to make flower crafts is to make carnations from napkins. You need to choose a three-layer napkin of scarlet or purple. The workpiece is folded with an accordion. A thin wire is knotted in the center. The edges of the accordion are carefully lifted, gradually forming a bud.
In fact, the flower itself is ready. It is fixed on pre-prepared stems and placed in a vase. The composition of paper carnations that are in a vase decorated in the same way looks organically.
Rosettes: always solemn and elegant
Roses from napkins can be both the main decor, and play the role of decorative elements to create more complex installations in structure. There are a huge number of different techniques for creating such popular colors: from primitive algorithms such as “tattered dandelions” to multilayer and geometrically designed origami compositions.
To make simple roses, you will need threads, scissors and high-quality napkins of any color you like. Each element is cut along the folds. You need to work carefully, because due to one careless movement, you can cut the workpiece in half, ruining it.
The cut parts of the napkin are folded in half. This will be the basis of future petals. The workpiece should be twisted from the middle to the very bottom. The result is a kind of "crescent", already resembling full-fledged rose petals.
Similarly, they twist the core, but not so intensely. Next, prepared petals are gradually placed around the core. The base must be tightly covered with a thread and tied. Volumetric, textured and beautiful rose flower is ready.
You can do several crafts at once and it is interesting to combine them. For example, decorate a vase immediately with dandelions, carnations and roses. On the panel in the form of a spring meadow, place unusual outlandish flowers, make butterflies and decorate the canvas with them.
Whatever the initial idea, it can be improved, modified, transformed beyond recognition during the course of the work. The main thing is that the whole process of creating crafts bring pleasure.
