Dear Colleagues! I present to you a very simple and nice option By making sunflowers to decorate the hall for autumn and summer holidays, which can also be used as dance attributes.

Mater ial: - garbage bags yellow color for 50 liters - 1 roll;

Round filters for flower pots black (can be replaced with thick black material, felt);

Sewing machine;

Black and yellow threads;

Scissors, ruler, pen, chalk.

Unrolling a roll of bags (as shown in the photo) and draw stripes 4.5 cm wide for sunflowers with centers with a diameter of 10 to 15 cm 26-28 pcs. two rows (13 - 14 pieces for each row) and 5.5 cm for sunflowers with centers with a diameter of 20 to 25 cm 32-34 pcs. two rows (16 - 17 pieces for each row).

Bottom of stripes (with blue stripe) cut to about 5 cm (we won't need this part). This is what we should get.

We unfold the blanks and fold them in half.

We tie the middle of the strip with a knot.

We fold "bow" doubled, hiding the knot under the petal as in the photo.

The front side of the petals will look like this So:

We sew the finished petals of the first row to the middle - a filter (felt), slightly shirring the middle of the petal for volume (we use black threads).

Then we sew on the second row of petals, placing them between the petals of the first row.

Draw the middle of the flower with chalk.

Sew "zig-zag" yellow threads.

WITH reverse side the flower looks aesthetically pleasing.

Advice: if there is a middle on the reverse side sunflower nevertheless, it is thick and difficult to sew on (this happens with flowers with a small center; you can cut out the ends of the petals in the middle, and cover the ugly cut out parts with the outer petals.

We straighten the petals and admire our sunflowers!

Folded flowers are convenient for storage: compact, take up minimal space, and if necessary they can even be washed. To create these five sunflowers It only took me two evenings!

How to make a sunflower craft (applique) with your own hands from sunflower seeds. Three options: paper, natural material(leaves), plasticine. Master Class.

DIY sunflower craft

The sunflower is a bright sunny flower, so crafts with it turn out the same. This plant has long inspired the creativity of artists and sculptors. An applique with sunflowers can serve as a regular craft or decorate greeting card or a room, if you frame the work. Crafts you can make with sunflowers different ways and from a wide variety of materials.

In this article I will talk about how to make sunflower applications with your own hands from paper, a natural material ( autumn leaves) and a craft with a sunflower made of plasticine.

All of these works have real sunflower seeds glued to the central part of the flower. If the work is planned to be placed in a frame under glass, they will interfere. In this case, you can not glue them, but instead draw lines in the form of a grid.

Sunflower - paper applique. Option 1

Sunflower - paper applique. Option 2

This option differs from the previous one only in that instead of a circle of yellow colored paper you need to cut a strip, bend it like an accordion, and then cut out several petals at once. Glue the petals on the back of the black circle along the very edge.

Sunflower - applique made from natural material (seeds and autumn leaves)

In a similar way, you can make an applique with a sunflower from natural material - from seeds and dried yellow or orange autumn leaves from bushes or trees. For the work shown in the photo in this article, the leaves of the fragrant honeysuckle honeysuckle were used (despite the middle of September, it is still hot here and there are no other yellow leaves, even these were found with difficulty - they were hidden in the middle of the bush).

If all the leaves are approximately the same size, they need to be glued to the base in a circle, leaving a little free space in the center. It will be more beautiful if you glue them in two layers, with the second layer glued in a checkerboard pattern.

If the leaves different lengths, you need to fold them together, aligning them along the upper corners, and cut off the lower part.

Glue the resulting petals in a circle, overlapping or in two layers, leaving free space in the middle.

Glue a circle of black paper in the middle.

Draw a grid on the circle or glue sunflower seeds.

If desired, you can glue the stem and leaves from the stem of a blade of grass and dried green leaves.

Sunflower - craft made from seeds and plasticine

My daughter made this craft at school during technology class. To the lesson you had to bring plasticine, seeds and a modeling board. The children made a sunflower according to the model and glued it directly to the board on which they sculpted the parts. I would recommend using colored cardboard as a base or background for this craft - the board will come in handy in the next lessons, and then this craft will have to be broken.

Stages of work completion

These are the different works the children produced using the same pattern.

This photo shows plasticine sunflowers of Nika, Sasha and Ani.

And this is the work of Arina, Vitya and Dasha.

What can be made from paper? For example, here is a sunflower applique painting.

The sunflower looks like the sun and turns its “head” after it. It is grown for its seeds, from which sunflower oil and sweets, such as halva and kozinaki, are made.

You will need:

Sheet of colored cardboard,

Paper yellow, black and green,

Scissors,

Brush.

Progress:

Progress:

1. From yellow paper, cut out one square with a side of 16 centimeters, another with a side of 14 centimeters and a circle with a diameter of 5 centimeters.

2. Fold each square diagonally 4 times.

3. Cut out petals from the resulting triangles. Round them with scissors.

4. Apply glue to the middle of each petal and assemble the flower. Glue the circle in the middle.

5. We will make the seeds using the trimming technique. From black double-sided paper, cut out 25 squares with a side of 1 centimeter.

6. Place the end of the pencil in the middle of the square and wrap the edge of the square with a rotational movement.

7. Holding the edge of the resulting blank with your finger, dip its end in glue and glue it into the middle of the flower onto the circle. Fill the entire middle of the sunflower in this way.

8. Cut out and glue the stem and leaves of a sunflower from green paper.

The sunflower is ready.

This picture can be given as a gift, used to decorate a room in the country, a kitchen or a children's room.

Now we will try to make very beautiful flowers to decorate the rooms with. I will create sunflowers from paper with my own hands, the master class is quite lengthy and very interesting. If you have a beautiful vase, then by placing a bouquet of sunflowers in it you can decorate absolutely any interior. The sunflowers will be mostly made of cardboard, but you will also need plain paper and newspaper, as well as some other materials that I will list later. I make the legs from twigs, you need to break them even, but not too thick.

Sunflower petals can be yellow, orange or a little whitish, so we'll make them different too for variety. I advise you to do several pieces at once, not one at a time, this way you will save a lot of time and effort.

Material for DIY sunflowers:

- Cardboard.
- Newspaper.
- Paper.
— Gouache paints (yellow, orange).
— Branches from a tree.
- Wineglass.
- Scissors.
- Pencil.
- Glue.
- Brush.
— Dry poppy seeds (sold in stores).

Let's start the craft. We take two colors of gouache paints, yellow and orange, as well as newspaper. We paint the entire area with paints on one side. Don't be afraid to mix these two colors or paint on top of each other.

This is how we do it, let the multi-colored newspaper dry a little.

We take cardboard and a glass, turn it over, and trace the neck with a pencil. This is us making the middle of the sunflower.

I decided to make 5 and accordingly cut out five centers (circles) from cardboard.

While we were making the circles, the colored newspaper dried. We make an accordion out of it, fold it and then cut out the petals several times.

We take an accordion like this, folded several times and cut out the petals, this method is very convenient since you will create several pieces at once, and not have to make each petal.

This is how it turns out, different sizes can be created.

Lay them out and take the glue. On one side the petals are colored, on the other they are not, but this is intentionally designed for beauty and variety.

We glue petals, 10-12 pieces, onto the circle we made.

This is what we got, the sunflowers are almost ready.

Again, take a glass and ordinary paper; exactly the same circles need to be drawn.

We drew five pieces and cut them out.

And now we glue a twig from the back of the sunflower, this will be the stem, and we also coat the entire area at the back with glue.

We glue the newly made white circles.

Here is the intermediate result of creating sunflowers, the last step remains.

On the front side of the circle, grease it with PVA glue and take dry poppy seed in a bag.

Gently sprinkle poppy seeds onto the glue.

Cover the entire circumference with poppy seeds.

Naturally, not all grains will stick, so after a while you just need to chicken out the poppy and that’s it, the craft is ready.

These are the wonderful paper sunflowers we made.

Place them in a vase and decorate the room.

for decoration you can also create or. Create with me.
