Create Your Own Beautiful Handmade Crafts Using Cardboard and Yarn
Materials Needed
Prepare a rectangular sheet of cardboard of approximately 10 cm long and a thread of two colors. Make small cuts on the sides of the cardboard to fix the thread. The main material should be several cm larger than the cardboard itself. After that, insert it into the incisions.
Wrapping the Yarn
Wrap yarn of a contrasting color, doing it very carefully and placing the rows close to each other. To prevent the first end of the base material from unwinding, place the other tip on top of it.
Removing and Shaping the Craft
When you finish wrapping the yarn, get ready to take it off carefully. For this, you need to slightly bend the cardboard in half lengthwise. After that, you should free the ends of the first wound thread, which will tie the bud. The picture shows how to grab a handicraft.
Tying the Petals
Slide the loops more tightly so that it is more convenient for you to tie them. Pull out the cardboard, and make sure that the thread for grabbing does not go away with it. With your own hands, hold the future petals, and then tie them slightly by pulling the very first yarn. Complete a couple of simple knots for reliability.
Final Touches and Decoration
Spread the product as evenly as possible, and then decorate the core at your discretion. It can be a piece of colored paper or fabric, glued on. It will be very beautiful if you add the product with beads or beads. Any decorative material is suitable for this.
