WEDDING BOTTLE WITH POPPIES

Send

If you were invited to a wedding or some special occasion, you should not immediately run to the store for gifts. You can make an original souvenir with your own hands. At the same time, one does not need to have deep knowledge in tailoring and sewing. It is enough to be able to hold a needle and scissors in your hands. But there must be a desire to do something good, from the heart. This master class shows how you can decorate a bottle of champagne yourself. It is completely draped with fabric, decorated with a spectacular bow from the main fabric. Decorative poppies are sewn on top. It will take 1 m of fabric of any color. It is advisable to choose stretch, stretching materials. They are more plastic, easier to drape. The stretch atlas is ideal for such purposes. It is soft, supple, with a beautiful sheen. The folds fit nicely, the drapery is perfect. The fabric must first be ironed so that there are no creases, excesses.

Any red fabric is suitable for poppies, you can choose a translucent nylon, crepe satin.

The bottle will be decorated with poppies in 3 sizes. First, cut out a template from cardboard.

On it we will cut out future poppies. After the template is ready, on the fabric with chalk or a piece of soap we outline the outlines of future colors.

For each poppy there are 2 blanks of the same diameter, that is, in order to collect 1 flower, you must first cut 2 identical blanks from the fabric.

This is what happens after cutting.

Tissues easily slip out of your fingers when cutting blanks. If you get jagged edges, that's okay. After processing, they will take the necessary shape. The blanks do not have to be perfectly even, the same. Indeed, in nature, flower petals are also uneven. Some deviations from the size and shape will give the flowers a natural look. After the blanks are ready, it is necessary to carefully burn the edges of future petals using an ordinary lit candle.

This method will perfectly replace the standard processing of tissue sections with a zig-zag seam. The fused edges of the petals look natural, while the cut is completely sealed and will not crumble.

There is a middle in the poppy. We will make it from a button, syntapon, pieces of fabric, thread.

According to the size of the middle of the poppy, choose the buttons of the corresponding diameter.

From the syntapon we cut a square to the size of the button.

On the fabric for the middle of the poppy, draw squares.

The side of the square should be 2 times longer than the diameter of the button. After cutting the square, you need to cut the corners.

This is done by eye, you do not need to specifically measure anything. Irregularities will hide on their own later, when assembling the poppy. After the details of the middle of the poppy are ready, we tighten the button with a cloth, after putting a synthetic pad between them.

It should be such a middle, soft on top.

For poppy stamens we take any yarn for knitting. We cut from it pieces of thread, which should be 2-3 times longer than the diameter of the button.

Take a bunch of threads and drag them in the middle, as shown in the picture.

In the middle of the beam we put a button covered with fabric. Throwing the long ends of the threads through it, we form a cross-shaped center of the poppy.

Then cut the threads along the length, forming an even circle of stamens.

2 pairs of petals are added as in the picture.

We connect the middle of the poppy with the petals, stitching them through and through to make a strong connection.

Here is what should happen.

Take a flap of the main fabric, wrap it around the neck of the bottle, fasten it.

Then we begin to form folds, evenly distributing the drapery over the entire surface of the bottle.

After that, excess tissue is cut off. Slices can be hidden in the concave bottom of the bottle. Sew on top a piece of fabric so that ugly scraps are not visible. The bottle is ready.

For a bow, cut a strip of fabric, the longer, the better. Excess can then be cut. We process the edges, like the petals, fusing them with the flame of a candle.

Then we wrap the fabric ribbon around the neck of the bottle several times, tie a beautiful, large bow.

The bottle is ready.

We sew maki randomly, the number of flowers is adjustable as desired. Additionally, you can decorate the composition with ribbons, pebbles, sparkles. It all depends on the imagination of the master.
