How to make a rose from birch leaves. Making roses from autumn leaves

Olga Strebnyak

How wonderful the autumn season is! It was sung by poets, composers in their works, artists wrote many paintings - after all, autumn is truly a magical time. I try to use every day of this enchanting season in my work with children to show the bright colors of autumn, listen to beautiful music, read the poems of great poets, And, of course, I do not miss the opportunity to make all kinds of handicrafts from natural materials.

After all, the rose is the queen of flowers.

There is nothing in the world more tender and more beautiful,

Than this bundle of scarlet petals,

Opened with a fragrant bowl.

S. Ya. Marshak

The ancient Greeks considered roses a gift of the gods, and the Romans - a symbol of courage and embossed her image on their battle shields.

I really love roses and try to master all kinds of ways to make it from fabric, ribbons, paper, orange peel, and of course from autumn leaves.

By right, maple leaves are considered the most beautiful leaves in autumn. The guys and I have already made many compositions of roses made from maple leaves. But I believe that other leaves can be great for making them, for example, birch leaves.

I would like to offer for your judgment one of the ways to make a rose from birch leaves.

We select leaves of different sizes, about 7 - 8 pieces of small, medium and large

Cut off the sharp top of the leaf to give it a rounded shape.

We fold a few of the smallest petals so that one slightly covers the other.

We roll them up into a roll. This will be the core of the flower.

Around it, alternately lay the following petals, small, then medium, and large.

So that the rose does not disintegrate, do not forget to often fix it with a thread at the base of the flower.

So our rose is ready. The outer petals can be bent slightly for a more natural look. Any beautiful leaves are suitable for the "greenery" framing the flower. I borrowed them from the roses themselves.

(If you need a bud, then use fewer petals).

This is the composition I got.

To keep our flowers longer, you can sprinkle them with hairspray or open them with sunflower oil with the addition of a few drops of any essential oil.

Enjoy your creativity. I would be glad if this material is useful to someone.

For the autumn holiday or for Teacher's Day, you can make roses from maple leaves with your own hands.Due to the bright colors of the leaves, which can be pale yellow, bright golden, orange, red, green, the bouquet will also appear in a new guise every time.

What do you need to work?

• Maple leaves (freshly harvested);
• Threads.

Depending on the structure of the leaves, the end result is not always the same and is expected. From soft and thin leaves, more pronounced layers and crisp roses are obtained. And it happens that the leaf is harsh, cracks during work, so the layers of the bud will not be so pronounced, not very clear. But in any case, the bouquet is beautiful and interesting.

How to make roses from maple leaves with your own hands?

Prepare the middle. It can be from a small leaf.

Fold it right over to you, then fold it in half, bending the top back.

Roll into a tube starting from the right or left side. For convenience, you can secure this roll a little with tape.

This is the core of the rose, around it and you need to arrange the bud. To do this, take another sheet, as in the previous case, fold it in half, then a little, about 1 -1.5 cm, bend its top back and wrap it around the core. Like throwing a blanket on or starting to swaddle a baby.

And then everything is the same. Take the next leaf, slightly larger than the previous ones, and wrap it around in the same way, forming a bud. Only in each subsequent case it should be done from the opposite side. That is, you wrap the core with a sheet, pinch the descending sides with your fingers, and then the next sheet must be started in this area so that the tips converge on the other side. So you need to add about 5-6 leaves one by one. It is possible and less, but then you get very small buds. However, they may also well be part of the autumn bouquet.

In the process of work, you need to firmly squeeze the stem near the leaf itself, since the bud always strives to open up. As soon as the last, largest leaf has been added, you need to carefully wrap all the stems with threads. Just wind up thoroughly from the base to the middle. If desired, the stem of the flower can be wrapped in beige, green or yellow corrugated paper.

You can make any number of flowers, from three or more. Then put them together and also wrap the stems with thread, or with tape.

Finally, the bouquet is complemented with whole leaves, which can be of a variety of colors. For shine, you can apply sunflower oil to each bud, just a little, one drop is enough. Everything, roses from maple leaves with your own hands are ready.

In the fall, many feel depressed and discouraged. However, at this wonderful time, you can keep yourself busy with interesting things, for example, create a bouquet using flowers from leaves. There is no need to buy fabrics, translate a huge amount of paper, because the street is full of free and unique working material. One has only to collect a few maple leaves, read a master class - and you can get to work. This simple activity will allow you to spend your free time with the benefit of the whole family, as well as to keep the children interested.

Preparation of natural material

To make flowers from leaves with your own hands, you should choose even, clean copies without spots. The color of the herbarium does not matter, the main thing is that they are monochromatic. For example, a rose can be made from red maple leaves.

To make it easier to create flowers from leaves with your own hands, and at the same time the buds come out uniform and do not crumble, it is worth taking material of different sizes. Then the finished product will hold better, and it will become much easier to fix it on the branch. Wide maple leaves are the best option for bouquets.

If you make a flower from untreated natural material, such a product will only last for a few months.

To prolong its life, the source material should be treated with a glycerin solution.

To do this, you need to dilute 300 ml. pure glycerin in 600 ml. water, pour the resulting liquid into a tight bag and evenly spread the herbarium in it. Be sure to make sure that the maple leaves are not crumpled or torn. Next, you should seal the bag hermetically and leave for several days in a dark, cool place. Glycerin will make the leaves more elastic, tear-resistant, shiny. After 3-4 days, the workpiece is removed from the bag and allowed to dry. The material is ready for work. Do-it-yourself products made from processed tree leaves can be stored for many years and retain their original appearance.

Making a rose

Many admire such products, but not everyone knows how to make flowers from leaves on their own. To do this, you should follow the instructions step by step, and in an hour a beautiful rose will decorate the apartment.

A master class on making a flower includes several stages. First of all, you need to take a small processed leaf, put it face down on the table. Fold in half so that the top covers the spine. Then roll the workpiece into a small tube. This will be the middle of the future flower.

Next, you need to take the next sheet, do the same manipulation with it. Attach the resulting tube to the middle of the future rose and wrap it carefully around it. Using this technology, prepare all the leaves and also wrap around the center of the flower. It should not be forgotten that the blanks must be taken, given their size: first small leaves, then large

For a voluminous rose, you will need about 7-10 leaves. Each subsequent rose petal must be shifted slightly lower than the previous one. Then the rose from the maple leaves will come out open and large.

When the product is ready, the roots of the blanks must be tied with threads or wrapped with tape. Then the master needs to attach the flower to a previously prepared branch, decorate it with a green cloth. You can prepare 5 of these roses from maple leaves, and then place them in a beautiful vase; decorate the overall composition with dried birch buds.

How to make a bud?

Leftover maple leaves can be used to make rosebuds. So, a master class on making a bud.

The method of work is not very different from the previous one, the only secret is that the workpiece needs to be rolled up a little differently. Fold the processed material in half, then make a triangle out of it, tucking the edges towards the center. Then fold all subsequent blanks in the same way. Attach the triangles one by one so that you get a rosebud that did not have time to open. Secure its lower part with tape or tape. Buds can be made from multi-colored maple leaves, their appearance will be much more original.

The next master class will reveal the secret of how to make flowers from tree leaves with your own hands. To do this, you need to take 12 maple leaves. Make the middle of the flower in the same way as in the first case (fold in half and twist into a loose tube). Attach the next blank with the front side to the middle, with the spine down. Bend the upper edge back, while pressing lightly on it. Using this technology, you can get large and bulky workpieces. Each petal must be secured with 1 turn of the thread. The master must obtain beautiful and lush flowers from the autumn leaves.

The most extraordinary products

The original flowers are obtained from corn. Ask how to make a flower? We offer the simplest and most affordable master class:

1. First you need to find and dry 15-20 corn leaves. This can be done with an iron (iron it several times through the fabric) or in the oven.
2. Make the core of the flower. Take a small piece of corn leaf and fold it into several balls.
3. Prepare the base - a circle with a diameter of 15-20 cm. Next, cut out the layout of the future petal from cardboard. Transfer it to harvesting corn and cut out 25 pieces.
4. Lay the core on the base, spread the petals around it. Glue the resulting product carefully, lifting the edges with your fingers. The result will be a beautiful lily that can be used to decorate New Year's gifts.

So, after studying a master class on making products, you can learn how to make chic bouquets and crafts. Fall leaves will be even more beautiful when coated with glitter hairspray. No one will guess that these flowers are made from maple or corn leaves.

Such crafts will not emit toxic substances, so even a small child can play with them. And they can also decorate a family photo, creating a wonderful autumn composition - family and friends will gladly accept such a gift.

How to make roses from autumn leaves

Let's take a look at how to make them. The colors associated with autumn are yellow, burgundy, red, brown and warm orange.

For an autumn rose, maple, ash, and wild grape leaves are best suited. If you want to make a lush rose, it is best to choose ash leaves. The leaves must be collected from the tree, they are not brittle and they still have moisture.

The splendor and size of an autumn rose depends on the number of petal leaves.

The order of execution of an autumn rose:

1. Collect multi-colored, large, not dry leaves directly from the trees.

2. Roll the leaf in half, while the front side should be outside.

3. Then roll it up. This is the heart of our autumn rose.

4. Place rose petals around the roll. In this case, the front side should be inside.

5. Bend half of the petal away from you. The fold line should be one to one and a half centimeters higher than the core.

6. Once again bend the leaf outward, the inflection line is not smoothed out.

7. We wrap our roll on both sides.

8. Thus, we collect the following petals of the autumn rose.

9. Assemble the lower part with a piece of paper and attach it with threads.

10. For greenery we take the most variegated leaves. First we iron them with an iron between the paper. Then we carefully decorate the bouquet with them using a teip tape.

Master class: roses from autumn leaves video

Hey! It's October. The aspen is about to turn red. And this means - the time has come for roses and autumn leaves! For the brightest and fabulous rose is obtained, in my opinion, from aspen leaves.

However, we will tell you step-by-step instructions using our rose as an example, which we made in September. At that time there was still no smell of aspen leaves, and indeed it was difficult to find red leaves.

As a result, we collected: three randomly reddened aspen leaves, many maple leaves - very bright, but very susceptible to all leaf lesions and darkening, and many burgundy loach leaves. This is all that we found, and we got this rosette:

Here we will tell her today.

Despite the fact that I have last year's arsenal in my arsenal (by the way, that's where the aspen leaves flaunt, here they are - how bright!), This time we used a couple of chips to improve the craft and, as you can see, this rosette of ours, cultivated with her own hands turned out to be a more perfect person.

So. Let's get started!

How to make roses from leaves - Step by step

pictures can be enlarged by clicking

We need

• The leaves are beautiful and vibrant. Red, orange, yellow are the colors of your rose. Better - large. Just in case - a lot. Let's say twenty. You never know what.
• Maple green leaves. Several. Five pieces. A couple are smaller, the rest are large.
• Juice straw. This is approximately the same as in the photo. Not very narrow and not very wide.
• A twig for a stem. Important! On a branch-stalk in the upper part of it (you can cut it to length in the right place), the juice tube should be very well put on and not very dangling. So - go looking, take a straw for juice.
• Elastic bands for weaving.
• Double sided tape.
• PVA glue, I think, will not hurt.
• Hair fixation spray. Moreover - it is for the hair. Why so - I will write in the paragraph how to save a rose.
• A pot or vase in which our rose will flaunt. How we made this pot, I will write in brief later. Here we did ... Or you can think of something simpler. By the way! You can quickly and easily make a vase from a bottle and rubber bands. ... Only the bottle here should be narrow and long and, perhaps, not cut at all.
• If you have chosen a pot then, attention! The rose must hold very tightly in it! We naturally have papier-mâché inside. How to do it,. It can also be plasticine or modeling mass, but note! This will take a lot. About two thirds of the pot.
• Again, if you have a pot, you will need to make earth. You can do it simply - take ... the Earth!))). We imitated the ground with ground cones. We set up a special thresher for such purposes.

Making a rose

Petals

The first step is to take the tube. We put it on the top of the stem and cut it so that our rose and receptacle fit on the tube (such a green cup with leaves from which rose petals stick out).

Now we are removing the straw. And we start forming a flower on a tube.

To do this, we take a leaf and cut a petal out of it. Like this.

And now we tightly wrap the petal around the tube.

We do not wrap the first petal outward. Better yet, tuck the edges of the leaf into a tube with a thin stick so that the hole for the juice is not visible.

Yes! We put the petals with the beautiful side inward. So that the turned sides are bright.

We also cut them out. Only now we turn off the edge, and then attach it to the rose. From different sides. And fix it with an elastic band. You can - every petal. You can - several pieces.

here we have already bent the very first petal inside the tubes

Actually, this is exactly what we use the straw for. You can form a rose and immediately on the leg, as we did last time, but it will be much more difficult to fix the petal with an elastic band.

It turned out like this.

Stalk

We plant a rose on the stem.

If the tube does not sit tightly, we first pour PVA into it.

Yes! For those who do not know - PVA will dry up and become transparent! Don't worry about white smudges.

Receptacle

We form a receptacle.

To do this, cut out such a blank from a green maple leaf.

We wrap our bud at the bottom so that at the top (under the flower) we get green protruding leaves-crown. We fix it with an elastic band.

Now we form a green wrapper around this crown in order to hide the elastic and protruding edges (for some reason they did not photograph the process. At the end of the last photo you can see what the receptacle looks like after “wrapping”. If it’s not clear, look there).

To do this, cut off a long tapering strip from a large green maple leaf (let's say from 2 cm to 0), glue it on one side to double-sided tape, cut out the strip and, removing the protective layer from the second sticky side, wrap our bud nicely and tightly below. We start with a wide edge.

I doubt, of course, that everyone will now rush to do the same (a long matter), but for those who are interested, I will tell you.

For the pot we used

• Pot base - a penny pot for seedlings or transplanting flowers
• Papier mache
• PVA glue
• Orange and green lentils

We covered the pot base for seedlings with a layer of papier-mâché, forming a beautiful pot.

Then they covered it with a layer of PVA and, sprinkling the mixed lentils in a tray, thoroughly rolled the pot on all sides.

And they left the pot alone. He needs to dry for several days.

Installing a rose in a pot

If you have a rose in a vase, then you don't need it at all.

We fill the pot tightly into two-thirds with a mass of papier-mâché and stick it into the mass of a rose. In papier-mâché, the rose holds up perfectly.

We used black taffeta. Again, it is specified more specifically.

Why exactly hairspray? Checked.

But when we tried to pour the rose with professional acrylic varnish for various surfaces - the rubber bands that held the rose together, everything corroded! Therefore, I propose to take something that probably will not hurt the rose.

We covered the rose with varnish, the stalk, by the way - and the peas too.

All is ready!

Our rose is already decorating the class of the eldest daughter and will look like a real living rose in a pot for a long time to come. Last year's rose, in my opinion, stood until spring.

That's all. All successful creativity!

Autumn is often associated with yellowed foliage on trees. They are not only beautiful in themselves, but also can serve as a natural material for creating chic bouquets. If you still do not know how to turn an ordinary leaf into an incredible flower, then we suggest that you familiarize yourself with our publication.

What leaves are roses made from?

Unfortunately, no leaves are suitable for creating exclusive roses. It is necessary to choose wide leaves, which will not tear at the first touch, but also so that they are not too hard.

Ideally for such a craft, the following foliage is suitable:

• maple;
• lime;
• viburnum;
• oak;
• poplar;
• mountain ash;
• elm.

When collecting leaves for crafts, it is important to think over the color scheme in advance and select the foliage by tone.

How to make a rose out of leaves with your own hands

The main thing in this craft is the leaves themselves. Collect non-torn, dry and aesthetically beautiful specimens. Before you start creating a flower, wash the leaves thoroughly and lay them to dry on a towel. Do not dry, but just let it dry a little and you can start. In addition to the foliage, you will need a thin wire and a small stick to help you create the middle.

The rose is ready. Having made several of these roses, you can form a bouquet or other composition.

Maple leaf rose master class

The maple leaf is ideal for creating a rose due to its size and color palette.
Sort the washed maple leaves by size and color.

Important! The leaves must be petioled!

Take one sheet, fold it in half, right side out.

Roll it up into a tight tube.

Take the second sheet with the front side facing you, fold the top back so that it folds in half. Next, attach this sheet to the roll from the previous step, so that it is in the middle of the sheet, and wrap the sides protruding from it 2 times. Pinch the leaf at the base to keep the bud from falling apart.

Attach each subsequent leaf to the bud in the same way, placing it on the opposite side of the core. The more leaves, the more magnificent your rose will turn out.

After the rose is finally formed, fix its base with several skeins of thread or with a thin wire.

How to make a rose from a maple leaf in stages

There are several options for how to make a rose from maple leaves, and our next master class shows how you can form a flower using the structure of the leaf itself. Stages:

The rose is ready.

TIP: To prevent your roses from drying out for as long as possible, and their appearance does not deteriorate, grease the finished products with sunflower oil or sprinkle them generously with hairspray. You can also pre-soak the leaves in a solution of water and glycerin (2: 1).

Help to show originality and surprise the jury and spectators will help maple leaf crafts, ideas unusual bouquets from this natural material will allow you to create compositions really worthy of the first place. Here you can find other master classes for your children, for example:

Maple Leaf Crafts: Ideas

Rose is one of the most beautiful flowers loved by many. Try with us to create handmade roses that will not be inferior to the real ones in beauty. Consider these maple leaf crafts: photo will help you choose your option and implement it.

The range of colors can be quite varied. At the same time, on adjacent trees or even on the same tree, we can find still green leaves or partially colored already yellow, or completely yellow. This will allow us to create a bouquet to our liking. For example, here is the option maple leaf crafts: rose here it is made from a still green leaf. We make each petal separately, it is a trapezoid in shape. The manufacturing sequence is as follows: fold the leaf in half, then fold the corner inward on one side and the other. For crafts, it is better to choose not completely dry leaves, but those that are still quite soft, otherwise, when folded, they will simply tear along the fold.

First, let's make enough petals. They can be folded in a pile, pressed down with something heavy. It all depends on how much material you have in stock. Here, one flower took twelve leaves, but the flower turned out to be large and lush. We start the assembly from the middle. To do this, we roll up a piece of paper bent in half, and then lay out the finished petals in a circle so that each next one slightly overlaps the previous one. We do all this slowly, the lower edge of each subsequent petal should be slightly lower than that of the previous one. Then the edges of the petals of the finished rose need to be slightly curved to improve the shape and make it more believable.

Having completely assembled the flower, we wrap its lower part with thread or wire to fix everything. We wrap the finished rose with a large and beautiful leaf to make it more splendid. Even three such large roses will be enough for a bouquet. It remains to find a vessel that emphasizes the beauty and singularity of our composition. It can be a vase that is suitable for the style, or you can show imagination and decorate an ordinary jar or bottle. I will reveal a little secret: ordinary hairspray will help to preserve the decorativeness of our unusual flowers, and if you take a varnish with sparkles, the bouquet will be even more elegant.

Maple Leaf Crafts Rose

Wild maple leaves can serve as a basis for folding beautiful maple leaf crafts such as our next bouquet. They are larger than regular maple leaves, more difficult to work with, but the result is simply amazing. We need about 15-20 sheets, thread, hairspray and glitter.

For the middle of the rose, we take the sheet with the wrong side towards us and bend the cloves of the leaf inward one by one, gradually folding everything in a circle. Do not do this too tightly for the flower to turn out lush. We wrap the finished middle with a second sheet and wrap the cloves inward again. For one rose, 5-6 leaves are enough. Having collected the flower, we fix it from below with threads.

To give the bouquet splendor and volume, each flower must be wrapped in a large leaf and again secured with a thread. Three roses are enough because they are large and lush. We put the finished composition in a vase.

I would like such beauty to be preserved longer. To do this, spray our bouquet with hairspray. The entire surface must be completely varnished. While it has not hardened, powder it with sparkles, do it abundantly. After drying, the excess glitter is easily shaken off. Ready! The use of natural materials will also be relevant for the school.

We have already learned how to make maple leaf crafts, and although the methods of implementation differ only in details, there are quite a few of them. The source material will tell you each time what is required in this particular case. From thin yellowed maple leaves, roses will come out bright and expressive, although not too large. But for a bouquet, you can take more of them and add accents from willow twigs, rose hips and laurel cherries.

We fold the sheet in half with the front side up and twist it with a tube evenly and beautifully so that it looks like the middle of a real rose. We fix the finished tube with our left hand and again begin to wrap it with a folded sheet. We turn the tip of the leaf outward, like the petals of a real rose, and, holding it with our hand, we continue to wrap it with the next leaf.

How many such wraps are needed, you decide for yourself. The more petals, the more magnificent our rose will be. In this case, 5-6 leaves were needed for each flower. When the desired appearance is achieved, we fix everything from below with a thread.

These are the roses we should get. We select the quantity as desired, depending on the size of the vase. The photo shows a bouquet of eleven flowers.

A clay vase will look better in this case. We put roses, and then we supplement them with rose hips and black laurel berries. It turns out very bright and joyful. There are almost no gaps, if they are, we fill them with green willow leaves. And the final touch is to insert two curved willow twigs. The result is a wonderful autumn composition. Hairspray will help us keep everything as long as possible. We sprinkle our bouquet with it thoroughly, and it will delight us with gloomy winter days. At the autumn festival, your creation will also not go unnoticed. And since winter is just around the corner, we have an excellent master class

Autumn is an underestimated time. Not everyone is happy with her.

On the other hand, this is a plus, since there are many discoveries that can be made that will make you take a fresh look at this time of year.

Here ordinary maples, which are valued in ornamental gardening, will help us. And our discovery is roses from maple leaves.

Let's take a look at a few step-by-step instructions for making these "autumn flowers" with your own hands.

Method one:

To make a bouquet you will need.

1. Maple leaves of different colors.
2. Threads.
3. Iron.
4. Newspaper sheets.
5. Yellow masking tape (optional)

When collecting leaves, do not strive to collect only the same. Colored leaves will be better. But dry, damaged or diseased are excluded.

Small leaves are also a bad option as they will be difficult to work with. Then divide your collection by color.

For a single bud, use leaves of the same color. Let the bouquet be variegated, but it is better for the flower to be monochromatic.

So, take a sheet and fold it in two. The bending line is across the rachis (the vein located in the middle). Moreover, the front side should be outside. Roll this folded “petal” into a roll. Bending should be parallel to the rachis. This roll should turn out to be dense; this is the core of our workpiece.

Now you need to lay out the leaves around the core. Take the first one and place the roll in the center of this sheet, with the outer side going inward. Next, fold the sheet in two outward. Make sure that the edge of this fold is one centimeter or one and a half higher than the core of the flower. The bend should be smoothed out. Bend the edge that protrudes above the core outward. There is no need to iron anything here. Wrap the conditioned sheet around the roll on both sides.

For a new petal, take another leaf, the algorithm of actions is the same, although from the very beginning, place this leaf opposite the first. And so in the same way, collect the petals in a bud. Determine the number of petals as you wish.

Use threads to tie the bud at the base, thereby securing the flower. Determine the number of flowers at your discretion.

Part two making “leaves” from leaves. To do this, as already mentioned, take the most colorful of them.

First, make sure that the leaves do not curl when dry. This can be prevented by ironing it before use by placing it between newspaper sheets with an iron. This is where another problem arises, the leaves become brittle. But beauty requires precision. Place the leaves under the buds in a circle.

Make sure they are evenly spaced. Fix everything in the same way with threads. For beauty, it is recommended to hide the knot. Do it with yellow masking tape. You will receive a neat and complete product.

Method two.

Here you need:

1. Maple leaves of different colors (among them should be green)
2. Threads
3. Scourge wire
4. Wooden sticks
5. Sunflower oil

Regarding the assembly of leaves, the rules here are the same as in the previous method. But pay attention to the fact that you must have green leaves as well. Just as in the first case, divide the leaves by color.

Fold the first sheet across the rachis. Then twist the folded sheet, but so that the core is not compressed, but voluminous.

Arrange the cuttings parallel to each other. Then form the cuff from the green (and partially yellow) leaves. Fasten the cuff, buds and their cuttings with a scourge wire.

In order to decorate the leg, use several wooden sticks, inserting them between the cuttings.

The bouquet is ready.

But in order for it to retain its brightness and brilliance. Lubricate it with regular sunflower oil. This brings with it a few more positives.

When the oil is absorbed in two days, the leaves will become soft, they will be protected from drying out and will not lose their attractive shape. If you want, you can go further, pour over your bouquet with varnish, or treat with a special glue for leaves, which, when dry, will make the entire texture of the leaf clear, you will see all the veins, and the “petals” and “leaves” will play with color.

A simpler option is regular hairspray. Also, glycerin diluted with water (can cause unpredictable discoloration) and plain liquid silicone can be used to maintain softness and shine.

Fantasize with your bouquet to give it the perfect look. Try one of the suggested methods, supplement the second.

Every autumn I want to show and tell how to make a bouquet of roses from bright autumn leaves... And every year, when the article can almost be “put on the air”, snow has been lying in the yard for a long time and there are no leaves at all.

Then the photos are deleted, “because next year I will do even better and that's it. in time I will post it on the site. " But history repeated itself over and over again.

This year I decided to break this vicious circle and place a master class on making roses from autumn leaves with your own hands now, so that next year everyone who does not yet know how to do them will be fully equipped on time!

How to make roses from autumn leaves

To DIY autumn roses, except for leaves (at least 5-7 pieces per flower), you will need a regular thread for sewing. It is better if it is the color of the leaves, but this does not matter.

With leaves, the main rule is that they must be freshly harvested... Slightly dry ones no longer bend so well, lose their plasticity.

We start making a flower: from a leaf remove the stick.

Bend the sheet in half.

At the edges of the resulting half of the sheet bend the corners.

We twist the resulting half of the sheet with bent corners roll... This will be the middle of a rose made of leaves.

Received roll crush with your fingers at the base of the future rose, and then tying tight thread. If the leaf is well crumpled, then the thread will not break it later. We make a few turns with a thread, tie. We do not cut the thread from the spool.

Take the next sheet, fold it again in half.

Likewise bend the corner and wind, this is the petal of a future rose.

Finishing reeling second leaf, bend in the second corner.

It looks like this rose of two autumn leaves, for now, it looks more like a bud, not a flower.

Again squeeze the flower with our fingers and tightly wrap with thread(we take it out of the flower from the previous turns through the bottom). If it turns out to be really tightly wrapped, then you can not even tie the thread, immediately proceed to the next petal (holding the thread with your finger for fidelity).

We wrap a rose third sheet.

Rose from three and from four leaves.

Add fifth and sixth sheet, at the base while making folds to make the rose more voluminous.

Last, seventh the leaf has been added, we tear off the thread, tie it. The rose is ready!

But the whole is ready bouquet of roses from leaves.

In your floristic composition (for example, in a low vase), you can add, in addition to roses with the remaining leaves and sticks torn from the leaves used to make roses (as well as other natural materials).

In order for your composition stood longer, the leaves (after rolling the roses) can be covered with vegetable oil.

If you obviously want to make more high composition, you can roll roses directly on a stick (for example, on a wooden kebab skewer).

Autumn wreath with roses from leaves

In addition to the usual floristic compositions with the resulting roses, you can make, for example, autumn wreath.

For this cut the base of the roses scissors. It is important to find a middle ground: cut as close to the threads as possible and at the same time do not touch any of the wound layers of thread so that the flower does not unwind.

We take thick cardboard and cut out from it circle, on which we will then attach the existing natural material.

At this stage, we began to work together with the child. I really wanted to stay clean, so I decided to repack the wreath elements to the cardboard base ordinary again threads... The first step was to strap the sticks from the leaves.

Then I sewed on with a thick needle (with regular sewing thread, but in 4 folds) roses and a twig directly to the cardboard base of the wreath in the free space in a circle.

On the wrong side the beginning and end of the thread connected, I fastened them together, and then glued them with tape for reliability.

Then we tied the rest to the wreath. leaves, a chestnuts nevertheless, I had to glue it with transparent all-purpose glue, because they refused to stick to the strings.

By the way, the strings on the wreath look original, like gossamer.

I think next year you will definitely remember this craft from natural material at the right time and embody it yourself or with the children.

Where to begin?

So, you decided to create an amazing craft - flowers from leaves painted with gold in autumn. But before you start translating the idea into reality, you should prepare a little.

To make flowers from tree leaves you will need:

liquid glycerin;

tight package of small size;

beautiful even branches (on which you will attach flowers from tree leaves);

sewing threads (preferably red or brown so that they do not stand out on your craft).

Personally, it will take a little time, patience and desire from you to create something original with your own hands!

Assembling the leaves

In order for the flowers from the leaves of trees to turn out neat and beautiful, you should choose even, not wet and not wrinkled leaves.

Also, do not take those that have already begun to rot. Believe me, this will not add charm to your bouquet. On the contrary, the craft will either come out crooked and ugly, or it won't work at all.

In addition, the size of the leaves plays a very important role, so when assembling the material, pay attention to it. The leaves should be about the same size. This will help you easily and neatly make flowers from tree leaves with your own hands.

Leaf processing

Here you have collected and brought the leaves home. Can a bouquet be made from them now? No, unfortunately, it's worth postponing for now.

If you want to get natural and graceful flowers from the leaves of trees, the instructions below must be followed.

At the preparatory stage, the leaves should be thoroughly cleaned. And just washing them in hot water will not be enough.

To properly prepare the material for the craft, the following steps should be followed:

Autumn leaves are a good foundation for creativity. They can be easily converted into a wide variety of products.

For example, fresh or slightly wilted maple leaves can easily turn into beautiful, graceful, roses, from which it is easy to design expressive ones.

To make roses from maple leaves with your own hands, you need to prepare the leaves themselves and sewing threads of a similar shade to them. If you want to make a bright multi-colored bouquet, make sure that the leaves are of a variety of colors. They do not need to be dried; it is advisable to use freshly fallen leaves that have still retained their natural flexibility.

So, let's start creating the first rose from leaves with our own hands, following simple instructions step by step.

Select a maple leaf of the desired color and fold it in half.

Gently twist the folded sheet into a tube, forming a dense bud.

At the root, we securely fix the bud with a thread.

We now have a base for creating a rose from maple leaves.

Now we fold the second maple leaf in half and wrap it around the base to create the volume we need.

We fasten the additional sheet with a thread.

Acting in this way, we gradually supplement the base with leaves until the rose acquires the volume that we need. We fix each sheet with a thread. You can bend the leaves to the sides in different ways to make the flower more open, or twist them more tightly to get a closed, unblown bud.

As a result, we should get a rose of the right size and shape.

Gently pull out the leaf stalks in one direction, wrap with thread. They develop into a fairly strong stem.

By this principle, we create at least three roses, from which it will be possible to arrange a beautiful bouquet. You can make a bouquet of five, seven or more roses - at your discretion. If you wish, you can cover the flowers on top with a transparent varnish from a spray bottle or sparkles - then their color will turn out to be more juicy and saturated.

We decorate the finished bouquet with large maple, like wrapping paper. So, for three roses, we take three maple leaves and put them around the flowers on all sides. We fix the resulting composition with the same thread at the base. If desired, you can add beads, rhinestones, beads and other decorations to the composition by sticking them on the surface of the leaves.

Well, now our work is over!
