Such a gift will be individual and will definitely not leave your friend indifferent. And you can put a piece of your soul into it, and at the same time show your imagination and love for your friend. In this master class prepared by Anna Moiseeva, we will crochet an easy necklace!

In order to knit such a necklace we will need:

  • thread of blue, light blue, white;
  • hook 1.75 mm;
  • scissors;
  • needle;
  • chain.

For knitting such a product, it is better to take fine yarn. The thinner the better. Our necklace will consist of 7 circles. 1 of them will be the largest and will be located in the center. The remaining 6 are 2 sets of 3. The sets will be the same.

Let's start knitting from the central one, that is, from the largest circle. We knit 12 sc in a slip stitch with blue yarn. We close the circle with a joint and tighten the ring.

We knit 1 row with blue yarn, adding every 2 stitches in the row. Closing the row, change the thread to white. We perform a row, adding every 3 loops of the row.

And we just have to knit the last row. In it we make additions every 5 loops of the row. The central circle is ready.

The next circle will consist of only 4 rows. First, we form a slip loop with blue yarn and work 12 sc into it. We will consider this to be the first row.

Then we change the thread again, but now to white. Add through 2 loops. Once again we change the thread to blue and knit a row, making increases every 3 loops of the row.

We knit 1 more exactly the same circle. We just have to connect the last 2 circles. These are the smallest parts of the necklace.

Again we knit 12 sc in a slip stitch with blue thread. Then we change it to blue. We perform a row with an increase through the loop.

We knit the same circle again. Now we just have to assemble the necklace. To do this, you first need to unfold it in order to understand how to sew the parts together.

Then we sew 2 smaller circles to the central large circle. Sew on different sides.

And then we sew others onto these parts. And at the end we sew on the smallest circles.

The last step will be the chain. We attach it to the loops of the circles. The crochet necklace is ready!

Making a greeting card with your own hands

Take everything you need for work. A big plus is the brightness of the plasticine; the brighter and more attractive the color of the material itself, the more expressive the postcard will be. Selecting shades of plasticine is already half the success.

To begin, very carefully apply juicy green plasticine to the surface of the cardboard. Try to make the layer very thin and smooth the pieces in different directions.

Also, use a toothpick to glue red balls along the edge of the wings. Above the image of the insect, write “Happy Holidays!” In this case, there is no need to indicate March 8, because the number eight already appears on the postcard, so it is immediately clear what holiday the craft is dedicated to. Stick patterns on the corners to make appearance finished.

There is a canvas in front of you. It doesn't matter what color it is. Pay more attention to its density and size. Choose the size for your craft, as well as the background color that will perfectly match the buds in the bouquet.

Fill the background completely with bright plasticine. Since you need to independently apply bright plasticine in a thin layer to the surface, the color of the cardboard is not initially important.

A beautiful bouquet can be made rich and beautifully complemented with simple wildflowers, such as cornflowers. Florists often do this. For small graceful branches, prepare thin green threads and green leaves, small blue beads.

First glue thin green branches with leaves under one side of the card.

Then press down each leaf with a thin needle to make the surface more realistic and textured.

Collect small cornflower flowers. To do this, combine 4 blue balls together, press with your fingertips to get petals. Insert a white ball into the center. Attach the resulting flowers to ready-made branches.

Make 10-20 blue wildflowers. Stick in different places. Press the white bead in the center on top with a toothpick, and also press down each blue petal.

Now move on to the rose leaves. They should be much larger. Make green flat droplets. Draw veins on top with a thin tool.

Assemble several combinations of thin green threads and the resulting carved drop-shaped leaves.

Glue green leaves randomly over the field branches.

For beautiful roses prepare red plasticine. Cut small pieces from the block.

Press and smooth each piece so that you get a flat, oblong petal.

Start twisting the petals into spirals to form beautiful red buds.

Form 3 buds. This will be enough to fill the picture.

Attach all the rose heads to the bouquet. Now you have a wonderful flower arrangement.

To make the inscription “Congratulations!”, stick a pink stripe somewhere on the side. Make an engraving with the sharp end of a toothpick.

If desired, fill the empty space with small multi-colored balls from plasticine so that the overall picture is rainbow-colored.

  • Cocktail straws
  • Threads
  • Lighter
  • Needle
  • Soft filler (holofiber, cotton wool, etc.)
  • Scissors
  • Paper and pencil
  • Ruler
  • Double-sided tape

Manufacturing:

  • We cut out three blanks from paper with dimensions of 3 * 21 cm, 7 * 12 cm and 7 * 14 cm

  • We fold the 7*14 piece in half lengthwise and draw a leaf on it and cut it out. We will use this template to cut the leaves.

  • We mark the details on the fabric according to the templates. For one tulip you will need one 3*21 piece for the stem, 7*12 for the flower and 2 pieces for the leaves.
  • If you are going to create a bouquet, then prepare all the details at once, carry out the work in stages

  • For the stem, seal one edge using a lighter flame to make the seam look neat

  • Place double-sided tape on the opposite edge

  • Wrap the tube in fabric. We pin the remaining edges with needles and use a needle to hem the seam so that it is not visible

  • Let's take care of the leaves. We turn the bottom edge of the part and sew it, then we put the parts together right sides and sew along the edges, turn them inside out, and iron them. It is better to perform this operation on sewing machine, but if it is not there, then manually

  • Fold the edge of the fabric for the flower half a centimeter to the wrong side and smooth it with an iron

  • We fold the fabric with the right side inward and sew the edge and turn it inside out. The result is a cylinder

  • We go along the edge with a needle and collect the fabric, insert the stem inside and tighten the thread. We try to match the seams on the stem and bud and tie the stem and flower together with a thread

  • Fill the bud with filler and tie it crosswise with thread. First from one edge to the other, then opposite. Press the corners with your fingers to give shape.

  • We apply the leaf to the stem so as to close the seam and hem it with invisible stitches

  • We prepare the rest of the flowers in the same way and decorate the bouquet with a ribbon or place it in a vase.
