How to make growth flowers

Artificial flowers in size with human growth will become an excellent decoration of any holiday. They can be issued a thematic party, photowons. In our article you will find a detailed master class on the manufacture of large, volume colors from corrugated paper.

1
Preparation of materials

To perform an increase in the flower you will need free time and high-quality materials for work. We advise you not to save on corrugated paper, because it is from this element that the appearance of the finished flower will depend on this element.

Shades of paper must be combined with each other. For example, if you use pastel colors for bud, then the color of the stem must be harmonious and not very bright. For the manufacture of a bulk flower must be prepared:

sharp scissors;
glue pistol;
corrugation (the amount will depend on the desired volume of artificial plant);
billet hemisphere from papier-mâché (made from a balloon, glued with newspaper slices);
thick wire or PVC pipe of a small diameter (for the manufacture of the stem, the length is selected individually);
ruler.

The main thing is not to rush while working. All stages must be performed gradually and efficiently. The blank of papier-mache must be well dried and strong to withstand uniform gluing petals.

We form a bud and stem

On our example we will tell how to make a bud of Peony. By a similar algorithm, you can perform any flower, only you need to cut the form of petals correctly. For the volumetric peony, we will need 2 rolls of standard size of pink and pale pink shades, 1 roll of green corrugation for the formation of the stem.

1 step - we deploy the roll of paper more bright shade and measure 70-80 cm, cut off the planned area;
2 step - on the cut corrugation measure three equal sections (approximately 26 cm) and neatly cut;
3 step - we fold the prepared web in half and cut on the planned line (similar effect to repeat with the rest of the segments);
4 step - without turning the canvas, with the help of scissors, give the shape of the petal, cutting sharp angles (perform work and with other billets);
5 step - deploy prepared petals and stretch a little, giving a rounded form (corrugated paper will be easily defamatory);
6 step - we take the next workpiece, we fold several times in half so that the canvas obtained 10 cm long;
7 step - we make an incision on the bend, not reaching the end of 3 cm, a similar incision to do exactly in the middle;
8 step - give the form of a round petal, cutting the corners and deploy the workpiece;
9 step - manually weighing the petals, giving them a rounded form;
10 step - we put the last workpiece three times in half, we make an incision exactly in the middle, not reaching 6 cm to the base;
11 step - we give the prepared canvas the shape of the petals, also cutting the corners;
12 Step - we put the template and gently spread the petals, slightly stretching them on the sides;
13 step - cut off from the roll of corrugated strip 5 cm thick and glue it on the base of the hemispheres of papier-mache so that the cut is not visible;
14 step - we proceed to the formation of the middle of the bud: the end of the PVC pipe is wrapped into the smallest plot of petals, their position is regularly fixed with a glue gun (securing the petals is necessary to the bottom of the pipe);
15 step - when all the billets of petals will be glued, postpone the middle for drying for 10 minutes;
16 Step - We begin the formation of large paper petals less than a bright shade: Measure the area with a length of 80 cm, and cut it into three equal billets;
17 step - from each template cut out arbitrary petals (they can differ slightly in shape and size, it will give the finished flower natural carelessness);
18 Step - Main PION fix on a paper hemisphere, and prepared large petals are starting to glue on the inside of the template (only the base of the petal must be glued);
19 step - when the inner part is fully glued, go to the outer part of the hemisphere;
20 step - tool the petals of the finished bud, giving them a bulk form;
21 Step - cutting into strips with a thickness of 10 cm corrugated paper of green color, bite the pipe into it, not leaving the gaps and consolidate the result of the operation with a glue gun.
