Painted wire flowers attached to denim.I don't know who first came up with the idea for making flowers from wire and nail polish, but it's a really great idea. I want to share not only my way of forming such flowers, but my idea of decorating fabric with them, for example, denim.

Total Time: 20 Minutes

Supplies:

  • wire (I used copper wire from an old transformer)
  • nail polish
  • pen of suitable diameter
  • pliers and wire cutters
  • awl

Steps:

  1. Wrap the wire around the pen. Make as many loops as you want petals.
  2. Wrapping wire around a pen.
     
  3. Twist the ends of the wire around the pen. Cut the wire, leaving the ends about 4 cm.
  4. Wrapping wire around a pen.
     
  5. Remove the twisted wire from the pen. Secure all turns together with wire. Twist all ends of the wires together.
  6. Wire wrapped into a series of loops.
     
  7. Bend each loop to form petals.
  8. Spreading out the petals of the flower.

  9. Apply enough nail polish to each petal to form a film. Leave the nail polish to dry well.
  10. Painting the petals with nail polish.

  11. To decorate the fabric, make a hole in it with an awl. Insert the end of the wires into the hole and pull it so that only the flower is visible on the fabric. To fix the flower, spread the ends of the wires on the back of the fabric in different directions and bend them, but so that they are on the same level. 3 wires will be enough.
    This method is suitable for decorating thick fabrics. It is also better to have a lining on the things decorated in this way.
  12. Attaching the painted flowers to denim.
