Decorations – weakness of any woman.The love for original, bright, newfangled or, on the contrary, vintage things is inherent in everyone, from the little girls to ancient grandmothers. In this article we suggest making you a very beautiful hair decoration using the kanzashi technique – headband with flowers. Such a wonderful accessory is suitable even for the smallest fashionistas. For a christening or first birthday, when little princesses do not yet have long curls to decorate with hairpins, a headband with flowers will come in very handy.Materials for work:

Satin ribbon 5 cm wide crimson, white, light pink, light purple hues;
Satin ribbon 4 cm wide bright pink and dirty pink shades;
Satin tape 1 cm wide green;
Beads for flower cores;
Lighter or candle;
Scissors;
Tweezers;
Soldering iron;
Glue transparent instant;
Needle with thread;
Pins;
Ruler (metal);
Hair band (bought from the store);
Stamens;
A piece of cloth (light shade) in width equal to the bandage.

The first stage of work – flowers.First you need to cut the ribbons into squares. 5-centimeter raspberry ones need 10 pieces, light pink, white and light purple 5 pieces each. 4-centimeter bright pink ones need 15 pieces, and dirty pink ones 5. If you want the squares to turn out perfectly even, there is one trick: you need to fold the ribbon from the top corner to the side edge into a triangle diagonally, as in the photo. The red line indicates the location of the incision. Now fold the ribbon in half along the cut line and make a cut as in the photo. The result was a blank for two squares at once, and the second cut marked the beginning of the third square. All that remains is to cut along the marked lines and melt the edges over the fire so that they do not fray or fluff. Cut the required number of squares.Now fold the squares diagonally and fold as shown in the photo. Pin them in the center with a pin so that they don’t “fidget.” 2 squares from 5-centimeter ribbon and 1 from 4-centimeter.Now you need to bend the right and left corners of all the triangles so that you get almost diamonds. This must be done one by one. First a small one, then two large ones. A pin divides our workpiece in half and will mark the fold line. Here's how to fold the workpiece.Cut off a little and trim the ends with fire.So the side where the corners are folded togetherThe square also needs adjustment (the figure in our hands looks like a right triangle, so you will need to trim the right angle a little). This is what it looks like. Melt all sides separately over fire.Here we have a multi-colored round kanzashi petal.For one flower you need to make five such petals.Gather the petals into a circle using a needle and thread.For the headband you need 3 of these flowers. Use ribbons of different colors or in different sequences. The variety will further spice up the future headband for the little fashionista.Make two small ones in the same wayflower made from raspberry ribbon. Not a single flower is complete without leaves, so you need to take 18 strips of 1-centimeter tape, 6 cm in length. Now you need to fold the ribbons with the glossy side facing each other in pairs. To work with a soldering iron, you need a durable and heat-resistant surface, such as ceramic tile. Attach the ruler diagonally to the workpiece and move the soldering iron. It turned out two leaves at once. Do the rest of the leaves in the same way.Take the hair band and stretch it slightly. Now we can arrange our flowers in order to find the most successful combination.Once selected, take the fabric to the widthdressings and along the length of the resulting composition. Glue leaves around the perimeter, as you like. When the glue dries a little you need to glue the flowers. Now you need to use stamens to mask the gaps between the flowers so that the fabric is not visible. You can use ready-made ones or make your own.It is not difficult.You will need fishing line, some PVA glue, flour and paint (you can use nail polish). Mix flour and glue until it looks like thick sour cream. Apply to pieces of fishing line and set aside to dry. If you need larger stamens, dip them again. After drying, paint. It is very convenient to use nail polish, it comes in different shades, with glitter or a grainy structure. The stamens will be no different from store-bought ones. Now put 3 stamens together and glue them into the gaps. You can use tweezers or a toothpick.All that remains is to glue the beads in the middleflowers. Now the final stage – attaching the workpiece to the bandage. If you have chosen the same patterned bandage as in this master class, then you should glue the flower arrangement onto a slightly stretched bandage. If you attach it just like that, the bandage may not subsequently stretch to the required volume. If you overdo it, the bandage will slip off. If you chose a fabric bandage, for example, knitted, then you can glue it without stretching it.This is what happened in the end.
