Wreath made of polymer clay mk. Master class in ceramic floristry: Modeling a Christmas wreath from polymer clay


Hello.
Today we will learn how to sculpt three types of flowers and collect them into a beautiful wreath.

For the master class we need:
polymer clay red and orange;
liquid gel;
wire with different diameters;
various stacks;
knife;
scissors;
gloves;
acrylic roller;
cutters;
piece stamens;
round nose pliers;
floral tape;
satin ribbon.

First we need to prepare the basis for the flowers. To do this, we cut off small pieces (about 7 cm) of a thin wire and make a loop with round-nose pliers, which we press a little.

We create the first flower. To do this, roll up a piece of red plastic with a drop and holding the thin part with a sharp stack, make a recess in the center.

Then cut with a blade into five parts.

We roll each petal with a stack. And press the edges a little with your fingers to make them sharp.

We pass the prepared wire so that the loop goes inside the flower.
Then with a brush we drip the gel into the middle.

Cut off three stamens and insert into the flower.

We make another flower according to the principle of the first: a droplet, a recess, cut it, roll out the petals, sharpen the ends, insert the wire, but instead of the stamens from the orange plastic, we make the middle.

For buds, we form a droplet, cut into four parts and roll out the petals. We pass the wire and then close the petals.

Flowers and buds should be made in 10-15 pieces.

Making one big flower.
We roll out the plastic and squeeze out three large and three small petals with a cutter.

We stretch the edges with a round stack and then make a recess in the middle to fold it with a boat.

We fold three small petals overlapping each other.

We pass a toothpick and glue the large petals in a checkerboard pattern (between the small ones).

Remove from the toothpick and drip gel into the middle.
Insert five stamens.

With a sharp stack we make a through hole and cut off the tail.

We send to bake.

We are preparing a frame for a wreath. We measure the desired length and cut the wire.

We twist three buds together to make a twig, and then we wind them to our frame in the middle. Wind the wire not in one place, but along the frame.

Then wind flowers

Again buds.

This is a purely technical process, try to have the same number of flowers and buds on both sides.

Then you thread a large flower onto the main frame and secure it with wire from the flower around the base so that it does not spin.

The entire wreath now needs to be carefully wrapped with floral tape. Wrap between each flower and bud, pulling it a little so that wrinkles do not form.

We take the wire thinner than the main frame, and wrap it with ribbon, this will be an additional decor for the wreath.

We fasten the wire near the loop and wrap it around the wreath.

Then we wrap the main frame a second time with floristic tape and grab the attachment points of the second wire.

After that, we impregnate the tape with glue.

We fasten a satin ribbon on the loops.

The wreath is ready.

I wish you creative success and see you soon.

A set of tools for working with polymer clay

For each wreath is unique,
Not a branch is woven into it in vain,
It is unique and only one...
And it is, without a doubt, wonderful!

This master class will be of interest to craftswomen working with polymer clay.

The author of the master class, Natalya Shapkina, shared with us the secrets of creating a wonderful wreath from polymer clay. During the master class, the stages of creating very delicate gypsophila flowers and arranging them into a wreath are clearly and very intelligibly described.

Respect - Natalia!

For all those who are interested in working with Japanese floral clay, I created this master class. By the way, in the photo of the girl on the head of the wreath of their living gypsophila, will you find 10 differences? And finally, this master class is copyrighted and the work created on it is already on sale, so it was created only for familiarization with the technique and for use in purely personal purposes, let's respect each other's work. Let's get started:

Materials:

1. Japanese floral clay Clay craft by Deco

2. Stacks: with a ball (small) and regular (can be replaced with a toothpick :))

3. Manicure scissors

4. Tain tape

5. Green copper wire

6. Jewelry wire

7. Satin ribbons for strings

Working process:

1. First, we create gypsophila flowers, for this we cut the wire into pieces and make loops at one end (so that our flower is well fixed)

After that, we take scissors and make a fringe along the contour of the entire pancake. The technique is not new, perhaps it is used to create dandelions (at least very similar)

After that, put the pancake on the palm of your hand and roll the middle with a stack with a ball (the photo shows on the board, since it is not convenient to roll and photograph with one hand)

Now fold the resulting cup in half

We take a wire with a loop, dip the loop into the glue. By the way, about glue, everyone everywhere writes about latex glue, like it is the best for this clay. I'm flattered too! I found it in the ONLY store in our city and bought it ... And what do you think? PVA (only a little thicker) and in appearance, and in smell and in composition ... eh ... Of course, it is good if you glue plastic parts together. But for some reason, my gypsophila heads lagged behind the wire after drying, so creating this wreath, I used the TITAN I tested, it is transparent and holds superbly! So we dip the loop in the glue, put it in the middle of our folded cup and bend its ends to the middle.

We get a bud with several tiers of tiny petals, we bend the extreme petals, we get a beautiful and fluffy gypsophila flower

We also do all the other flowers. It took 603 flowers to create such a wreath.

2. Stage - the formation of branches. One branch contains 27 flowers. The formation scheme is as follows: we twist 3 flowers together, we get a branch with three flowers. We twist three such branches together - we get branches with 9 flowers. We twist three such branches together - we get a branch with 27 flowers. Basically, you can do it however you like.

3. We collect a wreath. Cut off a piece of jewelry wire. Why jewelry wire? If done purely on a wire frame, it will be too rigid, the base in the form of a jewelry cable makes the wreath more flexible and plastic, it will easily take on the shape of your head, and you can bend and even out the flowers along the way as you like. In our case, the length was 50 cm. At the ends, we make small loops for further threading ribbons into them: we simply bend the cable and wind it with tape. From the middle, we begin to wind the branches with a "herringbone" in a checkerboard pattern: that is, alternating either on one side or on the other. if you wind the branches only on one side, then your wreath will not be so lush and voluminous.

After you have tied the branches from the middle to one end, return to the middle and wind the branches in the same way to the other end. Next, take the teip tape and wrap the entire wreath between the branches. At the end we tie ribbons. That's all. Your miracle wreath is ready!

is coming New Year! What a pleasure it will be for you and your loved ones to receive original gift like a Christmas wreath.

To do this, you will need the following tools and materials:

  • Polymer clay,
  • stack,
  • manicure scissors with straight and rounded tips,
  • teip tape,
  • scalpel,
  • pliers,
  • latex glue,
  • Super glue,
  • pearlescent acrylic lacquer,
  • clear acrylic lacquer
  • floral foam,
  • paints.
  • Molds: strawberry hydrangea leaf mold, petal mold, two brushes,
  • paint thinner and wire No. 18 20 22 24.

We take polymer clay without kneading the color and make the basis for the wreath. We separate three identical pieces of clay of about this size, from which we will make three flagella up to 30 centimeters in order to twist them and lay them in the shape of a circle. And so after all three elements of the wreath are ready, we blind all three flagella and now they need to be twisted in a spiral. After all the flagella are intertwined, you can lay the base for the wreath in the shape of a circle, if the tips here are not very even, you can cut it off and smear the edge of the base with a small amount of glue and glue the two ends. We leave to dry.

The optimal drying time is about a day.

We take acrylic varnish and cover the entire base, so it will have a finished look.

We make blanks for a wreath. From the beginning we make leaves and berries. In order to make a leaf, you need a texture and polymer clay in which the green color is mixed. We take a small amount of clay and roll out the shape. Here is such an oval shape that turned out to be the basis for a leaf with sharp edges. To do this, we take small scissors with rounded tips, now we cut out those very sharp edges from this form, by the end we simply narrow the edge. This is how the leaf turned out. Now he needs to roll up the edges a little so that they are thinner.

After that, we take the mold and apply the sheet to the texture so that the middle vein of the sheet comes out exactly in the center, we press it a little. You can fold and unfold in the center of the leaf to make it more natural. Now we take wire number 24x12, you can take 26 or 22 wire, they are all interchangeable. We dip the wire about a centimeter into the latex glue, there should not be much glue and press the sheet so that the wire is inside the polymer clay and fixed. After the holly leaves are ready, we make berries for the holly.

For this, wire No. 26 is needed; it can be replaced with wire No. 24. We divide the total length into five parts. Now we make a loop to form a berry. Knead the red color for the berries. Form a ball with your fingers. We take a wire with a loop, dip the loop in latex glue, then place the loop in clay and smooth it with our fingers. Polymer clay should be tight to the wire. Align with your fingers again to get a round shape. The berry is no larger than a pea. And the last step for the berry is a little pry with the tip of the scissors. Thus, the tip of the berry was formed. In this way, we will create about fifteen more berries. And so the blanks of the leaves and berries are ready.

Now we proceed to the petals of the poinsettia, she has red petals. To do this, mix carmine and cadmium red oil paint into clay. You will also need the texture of a strawberry leaf. We begin to roll out the leaf. To do this, we first form a shape. We begin to roll out a leaf, for this we first form a droplet shape with a very sharp tip. We press this droplet to the hand a little. Now we begin to roll out with a stack, we try not to lose this shape laid down from the edge. After the form on the poinsetti is rolled out, we make the texture. We take a mold of a strawberry leaf and apply a rolled poinsetti petal to it, press it a little. Now we remove the leaf from the texture, press it a little so that the texture subsides. We fold the leaf a little in the middle. Now you can glue the petal to the wire, dip the wire about seven millimeters into the glue and press it to the bottom of the petal. So that the wire is inside the polymer clay, so the petal for the exploit is ready. After drying, it can be covered with mother-of-pearl acrylic.

Next we will create the poinsetti berries, for this we need #26 wire. We make a small loop at the tip of the wire, after that we take polymer clay in which green paint is mixed, in the smallest amount possible, the clay should be quite a bit colored and form a small ball. After that, dip the loop in the glue. And now we place the loop with glue in the ball of clay and with our fingers we compact the clay near the wire so that the ball sits tightly on the loop. I'll fix it again. When the ball is ready, we form the edges of the berry with the tip of the scissors. The next step is to make spruce branches.

We knead polymer clay with green paint and with red. We take not a large amount of clay. Now, from a piece of clay, we roll out a strip from this strip, then we will cut needles for a spruce branch. The strip should be uniform along its entire length, the thickness of the strip should be the same as the thickness of the sheet. After the strip is rolled out, cut it into needles for the Christmas tree. The strip is cut, after that it can be glued to the wire.

Here we use wire No. 18, you can also use wire No. 20, 22. Next, apply latex glue to the bottom edge of the strip, attach it to wire No. 18, you need to attach the strip in a spiral. We start from the edge of the wire. To make a spruce branch, you need at least two strips. The number of stripes depends on the size of the branch you want to get.

The next step is to create elustuni flowers.

We prepare wire No. 18, make a loop at the tip of the wire, the loop is not very large. After that, we form stamens for the flower on the loop. To do this, we take a small piece of polymer clay, knead the green paint into this clay, after that we place the loop with glue in the ball. We form a narrow thin stamen, stretch it with our fingers and round it. The size of the stamen should be no more than a centimeter. And then we make six small stamens that we fasten around the large stamen. Now we need to glue the small stamens evenly in a circle. After we have made the first part of the green stamen, we proceed to the formation of the second part.

We knead yellow paint into polymer clay and form small particles the size of a bead, glue them on each tip of the stamens. In the same way, we make 6 more small peas and glue them on the remaining stamens. After all the stamens are glued, we cut the central stamen into two particles and the stamens are ready. Let's start making elustuni petals.

To do this, we knead green paint into the clay in a very small amount, so the clay is colored quite a bit. For one petal, we take clay in this quantity. There will be six petals. Now we roll out the petal, apply a little clay and now we begin to roll out the stack on the lodon. The bottom of the petal will be narrowed, the top of the petal will be slightly expanded. In order for the petal to take the desired shape, it is necessary to leave the clay slightly denser. If the shape of the petal is not even, you can cut off the excess with scissors. This is the shape of the petal should turn out, the bottom is narrowed, the top is expanded. After the petal is rolled out, put the petal on the table. We take scissors, with a sharp edge of the scissor we will form the edge of the petal, we do this not along the entire perimeter without reaching the very bottom, leaving about a centimeter on each side and it is best to do this not evenly, i.e. somewhere to recede more somewhere less, it turns out such an uneven edge. After that, we take the mold texture for the rose petal, press it a little to the texture and apply it on the other side, pressing a little less. In order for the edge to be a little uneven and wavy, put the petal on your finger and stretch the edge of the petal with a stack. And so the elustan petal is ready. We do not glue it immediately, it is necessary to make five more petals in a similar way, after which they can be glued to the base of the stamens.

After all six petals are stuck together, we will attach them to the stamens; for this, it is necessary to glue the petals together. We take the first petal, apply a small amount of glue along the bottom edge, apply the other petal slightly with an offset, apply glue to the second petal, take the third petal and apply it in the same way with an offset, so we apply all the petals with an offset. At the same time, pay attention to the top of the petals so that they are on the same level. You can press the petals together a little with your fingers so that they stick together more tightly. Now you can apply glue to the lower edge of all the petals in order to glue the stamens directly to them. We attach the stamens to the first petal from which we started, glue all the petals and wrap the petals around the stamens. Press firmly down here so that all the petals are wrapped in a circle. The next step is to make the sepals. There are six of them.

In order to make a sepal for elustoma, we knead green raska into polymer clay, take clay the size of a small pea for one sepal. Now with our fingers we roll out the clay on the palm, we make a very thin edge, i.e. one edge is very thin and the other expands and presses a little on the hand. After that, we immediately glue the sepal to the flower; for this, we smear the edge with glue on the wider part, i.e. bottom edge. After that, we apply the sepal to the bottom of the flower. We press with a finger so that the sepal is properly attached, it should be free enough, we glue it only at the bottom. In a similar way, we make five more sepals in order to get these shapes.

And so after the sepals are made, you need to stick around the stem. To do this, we apply a large number glue on the wire, now we take clay of the same color as the sepals, again, in the amount of peas, we press a little to the hand and apply it to the wire. The length of the sticky stem is about 3-5 cm. We press the clay right under the sepals and begin to pull the polymer clay down a little, rounding it. We smooth the stem along the entire length with a small amount of water. And also smooth out the connection of the sepal and stem. In order for the transition to be smooth and not noticeable.

At this stage, the flower is ready and you can proceed to the manufacture of buds. For the elustoma bud, we take wire No. 22, the total length is divided into three parts, we make a loop on the edge of the wire, bend the edge a little, we get a loop of this size. After that, you can form the basis for the bud. To do this, we take a small amount of polymer clay about this size. It may be slightly smaller or bigger size The buds come in different sizes. Forming the basis for the bud, it is slightly elongated, we will slightly pinch one edge. After that, the loop must be dipped into the glue and the loop with glue should be placed in the clay. We press the clay more tightly against the wire so that there are no free spaces, the clay is tightly attached to the wire, once again we form a bud with our fingers. The basis for the bud is ready, you can start making petals.

In order to make the petals, we take clay of the same color as for the flower. The petal for the bud should be slightly elongated and round in length, and the petal should also be slightly longer than the base itself. After the petal is rolled out, it is necessary to cut it into two parts and grease the even side with latex glue, apply this cut petal to the bottom of the bud and press it a little along the straight part. At the first petal, we do not press the other side, i.e. we do not press the rounded side of the petal, because the last petal will be laid under this petal and then it will be possible to press this edge. The second cut part is also smeared with glue along the straight side. After that, with a slight offset, we apply this petal next to the first one. And here you can already completely press it against the petal. In the same way, we roll out two more petals and cut them into two parts. And so we put the last sixth petal. A straight line runs so that the first petal with its rounded part can cover the last petal. At the last stage, apply glue to the rounded part of the first petal and wrap it so as to cover the last petal. The bud for the euton is ready.

And in the same way as we did the sepals for the flower, we make the sepals for the bud. Buds can be of different sizes. In the same way we form a sepal for a bud, as we did for a flower. We apply glue on the lower part and apply the sepal to the bud, press it a little with our fingers and then create five of the same sepals. Now we make small apples for the Christmas wreath.

To do this, take the wire 22, here it is cut into five parts of the total length of the wire. We make a loop on the edge of the wire. Now we take the clay, knead the yellow paint. Now we place the loop with glue in the clay. In order to form an apple on a wire, you need to slightly narrow the edge of the ball and press the top with your finger to make a small depression. That is, the edge at the top is slightly narrowed at the bottom, expanded. We take scissors and pry with a sharp edge in the very center of the apple to make it more natural. Now we bend the wire a little so that it is not straight, so it will be more interesting to repeat the branch and in the end we will not stick around the apple branch, we will only stick around the edge so that the branch expands from the edge. We apply a little glue to the edge of the wire, apply a small amount of polymer clay to the edge and close up the edge. You can slightly smooth the transition from wire to clay with water.

For the manufacture of spikelets, we take the wire 22 and cut it into four parts. Again, on the edge of the wire, we make a loop of about this shape. After that, we form a spikelet. In order to make a spikelet, you do not need to knead any color into the clay. About this size, we take a piece of clay and form a spikelet, slightly narrowed towards the edge, maybe a little longer or a little shorter. We dip the loop in the glue and put the spikelet on the loop. The loop should be in the lower edge of the spikelet and smooth the clay. After the shape of the spikelet is made, it is necessary to make an invoice, for this we take scissors and start cutting the spikelet with the tip of the scissors, do it in a circle in rows, turn the spikelet, press the spikelet a little with your fingers, the shape for the spikelet is ready. You need to dry it before painting.

Let's create snowflakes from polymer clay, you need to roll out an even plate and dry it. Now you can cut a snowflake from a round shape, with any pattern. And cut out triangles. If you want a snowflake of a more complex shape, you can use a scalpel to do this, put the snowflake on a flat, hard surface, cut out small patterns in the middle of the snowflake. The pattern for a snowflake can be outlined in advance, then it will turn out to be more even and correct. In this way, you can prepare several snowflakes with different patterns, then cover them with mother-of-pearl acrylic.

The new year is approaching, how nice it is to receive an original gift in the form of a Christmas wreath, and even more pleasant to make it with your own hands and please your loved ones

To do this, you will need the following tools and materials:

Polymer clay, stack, nail scissors with straight and rounded tips, teip tape, scalpel, round nose pliers, latex glue, super glue, pearlescent acrylic lacquer, clear acrylic lacquer, floral foam, paints. Molds: strawberry hydrangea leaf mold, petal mold, two brushes, paint thinner and wire No. 18 20 22 24.

We take polymer clay without kneading the color and make the basis for the wreath. We separate three identical pieces of clay of about this size, from which we will make three flagella up to 30 centimeters in order to twist them and lay them in the shape of a circle. And so after all three elements of the wreath are ready, we blind all three flagella and now they need to be twisted in a spiral. After all the flagella are intertwined, you can lay the base for the wreath in the shape of a circle, if the tips here are not very even, you can cut it off and smear the edge of the base with a small amount of glue and glue the two ends. We leave to dry. The optimal drying time is about a day.

We take acrylic varnish and cover the entire base, so it will have a finished look.

We make blanks for a wreath. From the beginning we make leaves and berries. In order to make a leaf, you need a texture and polymer clay in which the green color is mixed.

You can fold and unfold in the center of the leaf to make it more natural. Now we take wire number 24x12, you can take 26 or 22 wire, they are all interchangeable. We dip the wire about a centimeter into the latex glue, there should not be much glue and press the sheet so that the wire is inside the polymer clay and fixed. After the holly leaves are ready, we make berries for the holly.

For this, wire No. 26 is needed; it can be replaced with wire No. 24. We divide the total length into five parts. Now we make a loop to form a berry. Knead the red color for the berries. Form a ball with your fingers. We take a wire with a loop, dip the loop in latex glue, then place the loop in clay and smooth it with our fingers. Polymer clay should be tight to the wire. Align with your fingers again to get a round shape. The berry is no larger than a pea. And the last step for the berry is a little pry with the tip of the scissors. Thus, the tip of the berry was formed. In this way, we will create about fifteen more berries. And so the blanks of the leaves and berries are ready.

Now we proceed to the petals of the poinsettia, she has red petals. To do this, mix carmine and cadmium red oil paint into clay. You will also need the texture of a strawberry leaf.

After that, dip the loop in the glue. And now we place the loop with glue in the ball of clay and with our fingers we compact the clay near the wire so that the ball sits tightly on the loop. I'll fix it again. When the ball is ready, we form the edges of the berry with the tip of the scissors.

The next step is to make spruce branches. To do this, knead polymer clay with green paint and with red. We take not a large amount of clay. Now, from a piece of clay, we roll out a strip from this strip, then we will cut needles for a spruce branch. The strip should be uniform along its entire length, the thickness of the strip should be the same as the thickness of the sheet. After the strip is rolled out, cut it into needles for the Christmas tree. The strip is cut, after that it can be glued to the wire.

Here we use wire No. 18, you can also use wire No. 20, 22. Next, apply latex glue to the bottom edge of the strip, attach it to wire No. 18, you need to attach the strip in a spiral. We start from the edge of the wire. To make a spruce branch, you need at least two strips. The number of stripes depends on the size of the branch you want to get. The next step is to create elustuni flowers.

We prepare wire No. 18, make a loop at the tip of the wire, the loop is not very large. After that, we form stamens for the flower on the loop. To do this, we take a small piece of polymer clay, knead the green paint into this clay, after that we place the loop with glue in the ball. We form a narrow thin stamen, stretch it with our fingers and round it. The size of the stamen should be no more than a centimeter. And then we make six small stamens that we fasten around the large stamen. Now we need to glue the small stamens evenly in a circle. After we have made the first part of the green stamen, we proceed to the formation of the second part.

We knead yellow paint into polymer clay and form small particles the size of a bead, glue them on each tip of the stamens.

And so after the sepals are made, you need to stick around the stem. To do this, we apply a small amount of glue to the wire, now we take clay of the same color as the sepals, again, in the amount of peas, we press a little to the hand and apply it to the wire. The length of the sticky stem is about 3-5 cm. We press the clay right under the sepals and begin to pull the polymer clay down a little, rounding it. We smooth the stem along the entire length with a small amount of water. And also smooth out the connection of the sepal and stem. In order for the transition to be smooth and not noticeable.

Now many craftswomen are mastering the unique and interesting material- polymer clay. With its help, you can create hairpins, jewelry, paintings, figurines. But one of the most beautiful jewelry for the house will be a wreath made of polymer clay. It is quite simple to make and even a novice master will be able to realize the idea with the help of our master class.

We will create approximately such a wreath.

For it we need the following materials:

  1. Clay light green, dark green, white, blue, cream, yellow
  2. stack metal
  3. stack with ball
  4. Scissors
  5. Scalpel
  6. Wire 24*12
  7. brushes
  8. Carbon powder or semolina
  9. Special textures for leaves or real plants

Now you can start creating the parts from which the wreath will be assembled. It is best to immediately create details on the wire, which can then be carefully assembled into a wreath. It is best to immediately determine the approximate number of parts and prepare all the parts of the same color, size and appearance. Only then start the next game. First, let's see how to create blue roses.

First you need to roll sausages from blue clay to create petals.

You will also need a blue or white sausage.

Now you need to cut the sausages into small pieces and arrange something like this, and there should be about 11 identical parts - these will be large petals, and divide the rest into small pieces. The blue sausage is divided into 10 parts - it will be used for the central petals. It will help create a unique and interesting gradient.

Here is an example of cut pieces.

Now you need to mix the blue and blue pieces and roll balls from each piece, which will become the material for the petals.

To form a petal, you need to put on gloves, and, putting the ball in your palm, gently rub it thumb other hand. This will help create a unique texture.

When all the petals are done, you can collect the rose. To do this, you need to wind the petals one by one on the wire, if you decide to create a wreath based on it. If not, then just wind the petals one after the other, fixing the material on the previous elements.

When all the roses are ready, leave them for half an hour so that the clay hardens slightly and does not deform. If you did not wind the petals on the wire, then you need to slightly trim the material on the other side of the product.

Before you bake the clay, once again correct the shape of the roses, and feel free to send the products to the oven. Jewelry after cooling can be covered with a glossy varnish, but many products look great without it.

We start with the same thing - we roll out the sausage, cut it into pieces and create beautiful petals.

You can create a rose according to this scheme.

As a result, flowers of such an interesting shape will be obtained, which will stand out in the product with their originality and create a spectacular contrast.

I used other flowers in my wreath, which are also created according to this principle, but have a slightly different shape.

There are also roses of a more complex and interesting design, but it will take much more time and effort to make them.

You can give the wreath an original and magnificent accent with the help of calla lilies. Crafted in custom green with sculpted texture, these unique flowers bring a fresh touch and spring accents to your wreath.

The flower consists of two parts - a petal and a stamen. First, let's see how a stamen is created.

First you need to cut out the template according to which the petal will be created. The stamen should be about the size of two-thirds of the petal.

On a wire wrapped with teip tape, the size of the stamen should be noted.

For calla lilies, the wires should be slightly bent, because his stamen has a beautiful little bend.

Now you need to roll out a white sausage, which will be about 0.5 cm thick and give its end a slightly pointed shape.

After we put the sausage on the wire and level it.

When all the stamens are done, leave them to dry.

Lubricate the dried part with glue. It is best applied with a brush. Then there will definitely not be large drops left, and the layer will be uniform. We dip the stamen in semolina.

Press the semolina tightly with your fingers and wait until the glue dries.

The main point in creating a stamen is the correct tinting. It is best to tint with crushed pastels using a soft brush. Then the paint will lie evenly, and the color will turn out to be much softer and more multifaceted than when using acrylic paints.

The stamen should be slightly greenish at the base and towards the tip.

Creating a leaf takes less time. In the same way as for roses, we prepare the petals. If you need to create a color gradient, then mix the necessary colors. Carefully roll out the clay and cut out the petal using the template.

We take the resulting leaf in the palm of our hand and give it the necessary shape and texture.

We fold the petal, put it on a paper cone and leave to dry.

When it dries, insert the stamen and our wonderful flower is ready.

To decorate the wreath, you need to use leaves and small flowers.

You can create leaves not only with the help of universal texture patterns, but also on natural material. You can also draw the texture of the sheet with a thin needle.


Small flowers can be made in free technique and successfully complement the finished product with them.


After creating all the elements, assemble a beautiful composition and secure it in a wreath. Such a decoration will perfectly emphasize your interior and become a beautiful and elegant element of decor. A wreath made of polymer clay will fit into any design and emphasize your individuality and talent.

It should be borne in mind that in such a wreath you can fully express your originality and imagination. It is not necessary to use flowers and make the entire product from polymers. Weave the living natural materials- leaves, flowers, branches.

Be guided by your aesthetic taste and assemble the wreath so that it is not bulky, heavy - it should be easily perceived and pleasing to the eye. The master class presents an option for making a summer wreath - tropical flowers, a bright combination of colors make you think about Hawaii!

In your interior, you can use autumn wreaths, which are completely or partially made of polymers. Cones, yellow are great for this decor. Maple leaves, red ivy leaves, chestnuts, acorns. Small wreaths look beautiful in the decor, into which wide candles will be inserted. They can be placed on the table and long evenings to watch the play of light falling on autumn leaves. In autumn decor, you can also use orange peels, sunflower flowers, vanilla and cinnamon sticks, a beautiful spice that resembles an asterisk - star anise. Drawing up such a wreath will give a lot of emotions, and the finished product will emphasize the coziness and comfort of your home.

With the approach of the Christmas holidays, the whole world is in a fever because you need to purchase a lot of decorations for your home and celebration. Do not rush to throw money away on low-quality goods. Create your own Christmas wreath! There are several options for composing a winter wreath. The traditional Russian wreath should consist of spruce branches and shiny balls, Americans collect wreaths of mistletoe and decorate them with ribbons and bright red berries. Use a variety of materials, intertwine wildlife with polymer clay, and the result will exceed all expectations.

The more you trust your imagination and instinct, the more likely you are to get an extraordinary, beautiful thing that will amaze not only guests and acquaintances, but also yourself. Polymer clay is a very pleasant material with which you can realize any wishes. It is ideal for creating small details, accepts and transmits textures well. Sometimes, it is simply impossible to believe that a bouquet or wreath is not real. Made by the fragile hands of a craftswoman, it plays with all colors, fascinates and attracts.

It is worth remembering that wreaths can be used not only for home decoration. They can serve as an excellent accessory for a stylish and attractive image. From polymer clay, you can create a beautiful set in one style. Let's say it will include a hoop or a wreath for hair, earrings, a ring and a pendant. If you want to give an image of lightness and airiness, then accessories should consist of small details in light colors. If you are compiling a set for an evening out, then you should use bright, catchy colors, focus on large elements and, perhaps, even include bold bold notes.

In any case, no matter what composition you create, and no matter how it is applied, you should be guided by your inner emotions, create a product with love, devote enough time to it and display each petal. Carefully select colors and make sure that each element well emphasizes the rest of the details. You should not sculpt a lot of different colors - they will merge and outshine each other. Choose a few elements you like, create them and compose a composition. Feel free to create! Only with full dedication to the cause can you achieve an impressive result and create a real masterpiece!
