Floral master class on the eve of March 8: Four compositions for grandmothers, custodians of family traditions and legends

Floral master class On the eve of March 8, we decided to devote to grandmother-special women in the life of every person. Soft, caring, patient, able to surround us with their kindness and wisdom, custodians of family traditions and legends.

Of course, every woman is unique. Ibabushka in any of us is also the only and unique. However, there is something relating to each other and filling the word "grandmother" by special warmth. Remember at least the peace and calm, which is filled with her room. Here the time flows slower and lives from past times: a wicker chair, Singer sewing machine, a mirror in openwork metal rim. The medallion with a portrait of her parents is stored in wield, and the inkwell is in the table. The casket, full of wonderful things: vintage coins, wonderful and hairpins, beads, buttons, and pins, lace, and multicolored ribbons are certainly detached. Having a granddaughter, probably, remembers how, having dried, opened such a "casket" and moved the ancient "treasures". Grandmothers are thrown on the shoulders shawl, wearing a vest, long skirts and not very modern shoes. They are generally incomplete in general and the charming. The holiday of March 8 is an extra reason to tell them about their love. For example, with colors. Remember the affections of your grandmother. Turn in a bouquet of a tangle wool if she knits. Make out of the threads and cardboard a hat, if you like the theater and, going to the idea, I change the headdress every time. Get her favorite jug and put the spring flowers in it, there is no more "homely" vase than clay. The aposle will definitely stay to sit, planted together tea with cherry jam, remember family legends.

The inflorescences of many plants have the outline of the ball or close to them. This allows combining flowers with decorative ball-shaped objects, for example balls of woolen threads. For the spring bouquet Florist Christina Gogelia proposes to choose hyacinths of different tones and juicy yellow and green threads. The tape for bandaging a bouquet is better to choose threads (1). So that woolen "flowers" (their diameter is about 5-7cm) kept the shape and did not break, the tails of the thread hide inside the tangles using a knitting hook. Mild colored wires make "legs" for them (2). Ugiacints remove most of the leaves so that they do not overload the bouquet and allowed the inflorescences to dominate (3). Hyacinths are collected in a bouquet ahead with glomers, placing those in the center, slightly above located at the edges. The finished bouquet is tied with a solid twine. This is a technical mount, on top of which one more, decorative: stems are wound with a wide ribbon, and the end of it is fixed with beads with beads (4).

In the bag

The original floral idea does not have to be complex, intricate and labor-intensive in the embodiment. It is enough to think of only one piquant "move" - ​​and the composition becomes unique. A snack of spring colors (hyacinths, tulips, daffodils) can be placed in a circular frame-skirt from cardboard and threads and add a small hat, a playfully folded side. The combination of pastel colors (white, lettuce, pink) enchants and introduces a gentle charm to the house, when the sun begins to pull the snow and awaken the primroses of snowdrops.

The frame of this composition is made of two cardboard rings with an inner diameter of smaller 8-10 cm and wires. Wheels are wrapped with threads (2), they impose on each other and attach to them fakes from the wire (3). In order for the design to have resistant, such "feet" should be at least three. White Parrot grade tulips ("white parrot") are assembled into a shock, the stems are tied up, at the bottom, and at the top, next to the colors heads (4), are inserted into the frame (5) and complement the hat. The stalks are slightly bent, thereby giving a bouquet a more playful look. Achetoba they became flexible, tulips give it without water about 4-5h. This procedure is painless for plants: when the flowers turn out again in the water, they will quickly "eat" and forget about the "dry" clock. Working with tulips, remember that, standing in the water, they continue to grow: everyone becomes higher at 7-10 cm.

Cascade of clubs

An elegant vessel for flowers is able to transform any potted plant, especially during its flowering. Kashpo for mountain violet (cyclamen) was reincarnated with the original way: it became like a huge ball of threads, and the garlands made of tiny glomers develop the topic of needlework. Such a pot quickly "make friends" with other knitted things in room-pillows for pillows, handkerchief or vest.

For work, it is permissible to use threads of different thickness and structure: for cache-wool, thoroughly, and for decorative garland and tight and dense (for example, the "Iris" brand). They may differ slightly and on a tonality: alone will be more tender, "Sunny", closer to lemon color, and the other than saturated yellow color. So that the threads are more convenient to fix and they do not slip, the caspo is pre-wrapped with a sufficiently dense rough paper (2). Threads have a traditional "glomerious" method (3) on it. Glubes hang on the fishing line so that their size consistently changed from more to the smaller (4). The fishing line with one end attached to the porridge, and the garlands are cut down (5). However, the color of the "outfit" can be anyone that you wish, most importantly, so that it is harmoniously combined with the color of the leaves and flowers of the plant. The ion does not necessarily have to be monochrome- try combining different paints.

Art packaging

Decorative packaging will decorate any gift: a book, a ticket to theater, a set of cosmetics, shawl or a pot with honey. Every present she turns into a surprise, a riddle, which is not attended by not immediately, not earlier than falling by packing paper, anticipating a meeting with what he had long dreamed of. This is the possibility of self-expression, affordable not only to a professional master, but also to any person enthusiastically belonging to manual work. One of the most popular design options is as follows: a gift is wrapped with colorful paper and decorated with her ribbons, beads or paper figures made in Origami technique. Floristic materials, branches, leaves, flowers can be used. Just contact them carefully and try after presenting gifts co-store them life, put in a vase or plant a pot. Gifts for men are more concise than women.

Materials for decorating gift wrapping You can choose any, combining them in the most unexpected combinations. In the case, it is beige, yellow and brown woolen threads, cinnamon sticks and orchid flowers Wanda. Today, this exotic magnificent orchid race is one of the most popular, depending on the type of flowers have a variety of color: blue-blue tones, yellow, red, orange. The box, wrapped with decorative paper, is tightened along the long side with threads, pre-engage in their ends of each other (2). Put cinnamon sticks, "dressed" in brown wool (3). Also freely have orchid flowers. Their stems are immersed in water test tubes that mask among the threads so as not to break the appearance of the composition (4).
