A lesson on making hair clips in the form of a flower in Kansas technique with rhinestones
A beautiful hairpin in different colors can be createdwith your own hands from several satin ribbons, folding the petals using the kanzashi technique. Such a hairpin will be a bright accent among your accessories, it can be used as an original decoration for an evening hairstyle or to pin up your hair on weekdays. Each petal for the inflorescence is created with trepidation and love, so handmade items are considered special and unique.
A hairpin made using the kanzashi technique,shimmers with different shades due to the fact that each petal combines several multi-colored ribbons, but all elements have the same outer layer in red, which makes the work a single composition. This flower will harmoniously decorate a hairpin measuring 10-15 cm. As a base, you can choose a clip (crocodile) or take an automatic hairpin. You can watch a video instruction on how to create an elegant hairpin using the kanzashi technique
To create a kanzash barrette you will need:
Walkthrough
At the first stage, we create blanks of different colorsfor petals. Each piece should be 4 x 4 cm in size, the number of pieces is determined by the size of the flower. For a product with a diameter of 7 cm, 20 petals are required, each of which requires three different colored elements. The second tier of the flower is formed by a smaller number of petals, and each detail consists of two multi-colored elements.
For convenience, the created blanks can be foldedin stacks, then you will not get confused in the colors and will gradually select the necessary elements. Each three-layer petal has a sharp shape. To create it, choose one red square and two pink ones with different shades (or beige and pink). Fold the square into a triangle, for this you just need to bend the part from corner to corner.
The next movement is a bend alongthe center of the workpiece so that the fold line divides the part in half, and a new triangle with a right angle is formed, but the shape of the part will be smaller.
Make similar folds with the second and third pieces to get small triangles. Next, you need to put the pieces on top of each other with a minimum gap.
The distance at which you fix the parts,It is extremely important that if you fold the corners on top of each other, all layers of the element will not be visible; if you leave too much space between the constituent elements, the top corner will be shapeless, and the bottom layer will be difficult to fix evenly in the future.
It is also necessary to pay attention to the fact that allthe corners should lie on one line and look strictly upwards, then the petal will be even and neat. The next stage is the central bend of all layers of the part. It is necessary to carefully bend the blanks so that the upper corners do not shift. This is the multi-layer petal you get:
Now you need to fix the shape of the petal withusing a heated burner. The bent part is placed sideways on the glass, pressed with a ruler, which is located parallel to the lower edge at the distance where the layers of all colors are located. Cut off the bottom of the part with the burner with different-level ends of the blanks of all colors, creating an even base with this line, and soldering the entire atlas together.
Make the required number of petals forbottom layer of the flower, and glue them to the rounded bottom. The base diameter is about 6 cm, and the petals extend slightly beyond its edge, so the size of the product will be closer to 7 cm.
For the second tier of petals, create two layerspetals of beige and pink satin. The technology of bending the petals is the same as for three-layer parts, but only two triangles are superimposed on each other, then they are bent in the center and the burner welds all the layers in the lower part of the blanks. For the upper flower, you will need 9 elements, first they are sewn with a thread into a single flower, you need to try to press the needle in the very outer part of the base of the petal. When all the parts are put on the thread, you need to sew the first pair of petals a second time and carefully tighten the thread, forming a pointed flower. Smear the bases of the petals of the second flower (in an inverted form) and immediately fix it with the second tier above the first flower with three-layer petals. It is important to place the second flower strictly in the center of the lower tier.
Decorate the center of the product with an unusual bright orshiny element. The side of the flower is decorated with a branch of two petals. For these parts you will need rectangular blanks 2.5 cm wide, the length of one rectangle is 7 cm, the other 6 cm.
Fold the rectangle along the center line so that the satin smooth side is facing out.
Place a ruler on the top of the workpiece at a 45 degree angle and cut off the corner with a heated wood burner.
Straighten the workpiece so that the cut end lies flat.down, and the smooth satin was up. At the base of the part, it is necessary to make bends that will give the necessary shape to the elements. Both bends have the appearance of a wave and are mirror symmetrical.
The base of the element is soldered with a burner so that the petal takes its final shape.
Carefully glue the two elongated petal-shaped parts together and decorate the side with them. The transition point of the branch and flower should be supplemented with single-layer red petals.
Turn the work over and to the back of the baseglue a hair clip of the appropriate size. If you are going to decorate the clip with a flower, place its narrow long part under the branch to hide the tip under the satin. A hair clip with a charming flower in the kanzashi technique is ready to decorate your hair or pin up loose hair. Delicate shimmers in pink look great on white and light brown hair.
