Plastic suede, or foamiran, - foamya material often used by decorators and florists to create attractive and eco-friendly products, including decorations and accessories for the interior. It is used by needlewomen to create artificial flowers that are indistinguishable from natural colors. The material is plastic, well-shaped and pleasant to the touch. In this master class we will consider how to make flowers from fameirana using the example of hydrangea. There are many options for using the resulting product. For example, for making a wedding bouquet, hairpins or brooches.
Materials for creating hydrangeas
Before you make flowers from fameirana, you needprepare everything you need. You can buy a set for scrapbooking, which includes a thin plastic suede. It is not necessary to use natural tones to create a bouquet. If you show your imagination and work out the details, buds of any color will look natural. To create hydrangeas from foamiran we will use a material 5 mm thick.

Materials will also need:
- transparent glue;
- iron;
- scissors;
- oil pastel;
- floristic ribbon;
- wire;
- brush;
- stamens.
We make petals for hydrangea flowers
You can cut hydrangea petals on a pattern orcut the foiramane leaf into 2 x 2 cm squares and make them flowers of any shape. If you use two blanks for creating colors - with two and four leaves, then the inflorescence will look larger and more natural. The fact is that in nature the hydrangea flower usually looks like this: one petal at the top, then a pair of petals and one below. Another option is a pair of petals on top and two on the bottom. Such flowers for hydrangeas from foamiran can be made if you want to get an inflorescence indistinguishable from the present, but the process is too time consuming. Because it is easier to collect inflorescence from flowers with four petals or from two paired petals. If you combine both types, you get an option very close to the present inflorescence.

Hydrangea from fameirane: tinting of petals
The hue of colors is chosen independently.In nature, the inflorescence of this shrub often happens in blue, pink or white. If you take a white foamiran for work, it is easy to fill with oil pastel and give the colors of hydrangeas almost any shade. The color is applied to the petals on both sides. To make the bud more natural, on each leaf it is necessary to put an oil pastel of several colors. When using a blue material, the center of the flower is covered with a white pastel, crosswise drawing two thick lines along the petals, and then applying small strokes across them. We do this on all the blanks, including on double sheets.
Drawing a pattern and re-staining the petals
To apply the texture to hydrangea from foamiranawe will use mold in the form of a sheet. If it is not, you can make a mold with your own hands from polymer clay or take corrugated paper with a similar structure.
- We heat the details on the iron: we bring the petal to the tip of the sole and then apply it to the mold, making an impression.
- Repeat on all the petals on both sides, turning them over. We apply the structure to all the blanks.
- Now we paint the flowers again, but for this we use the green pastel. We tint the edges of the leaves.
- We put a violet pastel, covering completely all parts of the workpiece, except for the middle.
The coating makes the veins on the petals more noticeable and adds an inflorescence of naturalness. You can use a dry pastel, applying and shading it with a brush.

Assemblage of inflorescence
When all the elements are painted, in the center of eachthe flower should be made a hole for the stamen with an awl or burner. After processing all the blanks, we begin to shape them, chopping the petals several times and twisting them between the fingers. Then straighten the flower, heat it on the iron and bend the edges of each petal, folding in half and stretching. Should get a sharp bend.

We begin to collect flowers:We apply a transparent glue on the tip of the stamen and put on it one detail with four petals or two with a pair. You can make terry inflorescences. Then we fasten the finished flowers to each other, forming a bouquet. We fix it with wire. The knife is closed with corrugated paper or floral tape. If desired, you can add leaves to the composition. They are cut out of the green famicar and applied to the structure in the same way as the petals of the flowers. To fix the bouquet to the underside of the leaves, the wire is glued. Now the product is ready for use in floral compositions or for creating ornaments.
