I introduce to you a DIY on foamiran dandelions.
Foamiran jewelry is nice, light, realistic. In addition, foamiran — plastic suede — is pliable and soft. Foamiran jewelry do not fade, they are not afraid of water and sun. They are only afraid of fire.
You'll need:
- Iranian yellow foamiran;
- a ruler;
- scissors;
- a toothpick;
- a candle and matches ;
- a glue gun;
- decor (I have a ladybug).
So, let's begin.
First, make a dandelion.
Measure 2.5 cm of yellow foamiran with a ruler and cut a strip with a length of 50-60 cm.
Cut stripes with a size of 1 mm, you must get this fringe:
Glue the strip of fringe on a toothpick in a circle with a glue gun.
The reverse side looks like an unopened dandelion.
Now you have to fluff it. But before fluffing, I put it to a candle, make the fire weaker so that the dandelion does not burn. Wait 5 seconds while it cools down and begin to fluff it with a hand. Here it is:
Here's what I got:
Now you can decorate it as you wish.
I glued a ladybug and green leaves of foamiran. Make the second dandelion in the same way.
You can also make a fancy dandelion of any color.
These are my dandelions:
