Carnations from napkins

We draw with a red felt-tip pen straight lines along the longitudinal edge of each part. As a rule, the felt-tip pen shines through the napkins, but it is better to draw lines on one side and the other. Now the workpiece is folded in half lengthwise so that one edge is slightly higher than the other. Then we begin to roll the bottom of the workpiece into a tube. We fix it with wire very tightly. After this, we take floral tape and wrap it around the stem, the role of which will be played by the wire. It is advisable to start from the top so that the green tape completely covers the place where the wire will be attached to the napkin.

Advice! The finished flower needs to be fluffed so that it becomes more like a carnation.

It needs to be wound from the place where the napkin connects to the wire. Then carefully wrap the rest of the stem. The top of the flower needs to be fluffed, and it will become very similar to a yellow dandelion.

We divide the napkins into two parts, and then roll each of them one by one into a rose. To do this, you need to fold half of the napkin in half lengthwise and twist it, holding the bottom part where the two edges meet. After the rose is folded, you need to immediately straighten it, and then take a pin and pierce the flower in the center so that the needle pierces all layers of the napkin.

In addition, the process of making crafts with your child brings you closer together and gives you the opportunity to talk about something important and intimate. Don't miss this opportunity! And another idea for such creativity is do-it-yourself decor and crafts from napkins, which Anna Pavlovskikh will introduce us to. I give her the floor.

Greetings, dear readers of Irina’s blog. I am very glad that my master classes and photos creative works resonate with you. I always read comments with interest and am sincerely glad that people are passionate about creativity. This is very important for me both as a teacher and as an artist.

It’s great that you create together with children. This, it seems to me, is an important component of education. How often parents are busy with work and worries, but if in this hustle and bustle you find at least a few hours a week for modeling, crafts, drawing with your child, then these are the memories that will remain with him for the rest of his life.

Now I bring to your attention crafts from napkins with children with step by step photos making flowers from napkins. Such flowers can decorate both our holidays and everyday life. We will use the simplest and most affordable material - paper napkins of different colors and shades.

Napkin applique

What we need:

• colored cardboard;
• colored paper;
• napkins of different colors;
• PVA glue;
• scissors;
• pencil;
• eraser.

To begin, draw the outlines of the future application on colored cardboard. Next, you need to decide what exactly will be done in volume with colored napkins, and what will be done on a plane of colored paper.

To make balls, you need to cut the napkins into squares with a side of about 5 cm. Let the children roll small balls from these squares with dry hands - they will certainly enjoy this exciting process.

In a few minutes you will have a lot of paper balls, and all you have to do is glue them according to the design. Apply PVA glue to the desired areas of the design and glue napkin balls onto them.

Make individual parts from colored paper. You can also cut rectangles from napkins and roll them into sausage tubes, from which you can make antennae for butterflies and stems for flowers.

I suggest you look at the work of my daughter Svetlana using this technique. Perhaps you will be inspired by some ideas and do similar work with your child.

Bouquets of flowers from napkins with children

How to make flowers from napkins with your own hands? We will need the following materials:

• napkins of bright colors;
• pencil;
• stapler;
• scissors;
• glue stick;
• cardboard for the base or floral ball.

Children as young as five years old enjoy making such flowers. They are very simple to make and look impressive. They can be used to decorate greeting card or make a whole bouquet.

Draw circles with a diameter of 4-5 cm on folded napkins. Carefully cut out the circles. Secure the middle of each multi-layer circle with a stapler.

Separate each layer of napkin and crumple it up towards the middle. Fluff each layer to form a beautiful flower. Make several of these flowers and collect them on a floral ball for bouquets or on a cardboard base for a card. The postcard can also be supplemented with leaves of colored paper and a beautiful inscription.

Roses from napkins

I offer you three options for making a rose from a napkin. Take a look and choose the one you like best.

1 option

To make a rose, you need one napkin. Cut off the two folded edges of the napkin and separate all the layers separately.

To make the first petal, you need to fold one layer of napkin not in half, but so that one part is slightly larger. Start rolling the folded edge evenly along its entire length. On both sides you need to twist the corners of the resulting rectangle.

Make petals from all the separated napkins. Twist a bud from the first petal and continue to twist all the petals in this manner, gradually unrolling the petals that are further from the center. Make several of these roses and combine them into one bouquet. Similar compositions can be used for table setting.

Option 2

Lay out the entire napkin, fold the square onto the corner. Fold the bottom of the triangle over one centimeter and continue folding, leaving a small triangle at the top. Twist the wrapped strip into a spiral. Turn the remaining tails from the triangle to the other side - these will be rose leaves.

Option 3

Lay out the napkin into one large square. Roll the square into a tube. Step back six centimeters from one edge of the tube and twist it tightly - this is the future base of the bud. From the opposite side of the tube, straighten the corner - it will become a rose leaf. Roll the remaining part below the sheet tightly. Open the petals of the bud, twist the center of the bud tightly.

Rose and water lily made from napkins for table setting

On holidays, we especially want to see the table beautiful and elegant. Flowers made from napkins will help decorate it with minimal means, but such decor will look very bright, unusual, and original.

Rose

Take a small glass and napkins of the same color. Place the corner of the napkin inside the cup and turn the opposite corner of the napkin down. Place the next napkins into the cup with a slight shift in a circle and also turn the corner down.

After inserting 12 napkins, remove ready rose from a glass and place it on the table. Making such a rose will be a real surprise for a child and a worthy decoration for the dining table.

Origami water lily

When working with napkins, you can use a technique such as origami with great success. Let's try to make a beautiful water lily using this technology.

Lay out the napkin and fold it diagonally. Unfold and fold four corners toward the center. Next, fold all four corners toward the center two more times.

Turn the napkin over to the other side and repeat this action once. Flip it back over and turn the petals out from the corners on the underside. Also turn the corners up from the bottom side.

Let's watch a video on how to make flowers from napkins.

Today we got acquainted with such an interesting material for creativity as paper napkins. We learned how to make flowers and crafts from them. This material provides enormous freedom of creativity, is very easy to process, and is not toxic or dangerous for children. There is a huge selection of napkins in stores today. different sizes, colors and shades. This material is very accessible and inexpensive. I hope that you will definitely use my tips for working with this material, and that you will enjoy doing work using this technique with your children.
