DIY gift for grandma: a selection of the best craft gifts for your beloved grandma’s birthday. top 90 ideas and step-by-step master classes

Homemade flowers can be used as decoration in a variety of areas:

decorate hats and hats.
decorate sofa cushions;
add as jewelry elements;
design homemade bags;
Use as bookmarks or napkin clips;
create wall panels;
use when creating cards or gift wrapping;
collect bouquets to decorate your home interior.

The thread for creating flowers must be chosen that does not break up into individual fibers; it can be cotton, synthetics, silk, darning, wool or a mixed thread.

The crochet technique involves making flowers of various shapes and sizes. Volumetric flowers can be knitted from several tiers of different diameters. From the semicircular petals located around the center, you can knit simple flowers with five petals. Petals with sharp corners make daffodils, elongated petals make daisies or lilies, and narrow petals make carnations. Small cups are suitable for making lily of the valley or bells, and wide petals make orchids and poppies. You can make tulips from oval petals.

Flowers knitted like a ruffle look beautiful, when in each row the number of loops is significantly increased and the petal goes in a wave; if you gather such petals tightly from below, you will get a real carnation; it’s easy to assemble a rose from straight lace.

Flowers made from cotton pads

Many people do not even suspect that cotton pads can be used not only as a hygiene product, but also as a universal material for creating all kinds of inflorescences.

The surface of the cotton pads can be smooth, or maybe with a pattern applied. Depending on the type of flower, choose the one that suits you best.

Even a child can make a spring card with a primrose using cotton pads, scissors, glue, colored paper, paint or simple felt-tip pens.

If you fluff the cotton pads a little around the edges, you will get these airy roses. It looks very gentle and original!

Using cotton pads, a cotton swab and a drinking straw, you can create an elegant calla lily.

Cotton pads and a stationery stapler will help you make an original daisy) If desired, you can use glue instead of stationery staples and paint the daisy with gouache or acrylic paint.

Cotton pads are often used to make a very popular flower – roses. The roses will be decorated with pearls, which will add nobility to the resulting flower arrangement.

SunduchOK113 will reveal the secrets of creating flowers from cotton pads with his own hands in a video master class:

From a large number of roses you can create such a festive Christmas wreath. To do this, you will need a round blank, glue, cotton pads and various elements for decoration (ribbons, beads, rhinestones, sequins, etc.)

You can assemble an original topiary from snow-white roses. Decorations made from simple cardboard in the form of butterflies and leaves will add airiness and completeness to his image.

Roses can be created not only from “fluffy” cotton pads, but also made from a twisted cotton cord. The result will be a less airy, but no less original topiary.

How to make packaging for a bouquet

There is a wide range of wrapping materials, varying in texture and color, the most common of which are:

multi-colored corrugated paper is ideal for decorating yarn compositions;
thin transparent film is a classic packaging option. It is used as a component of a more complex wrapper, involving several tiers of different materials;
the floral mesh retains its shape well, gives the bouquet elegance and tenderness, and in appearance resembles material with “holes”;
craft paper is suitable for any craft and also adds brevity;
translucent organza will create a luxurious and rich look.

A bouquet of threads - a gift for grandma on her birthday

For additional decoration the following materials are used:

We use cardboard

Such beautiful thread flowers are made using the same principle as crafts created with a fork. At the same time, the process of creating buds is completely safe for children, since no sharp objects are used in the work. Making such a flower is very simple.

The first step is to select a piece of cardboard of suitable length and width.
Red yarn is wound on it. The more threads are used, the more voluminous the finished bud looks.
After this, all the coils must be removed from the cardboard base.
Next, this skein needs to be pulled in the middle with thread.
After this, you can begin to form the bud. The edges of the skein on both sides must be cut with sharp scissors.
To create a stem, you need to select several sticks of suitable length.
The buds should be slightly fluffed and attached to the branches. The best way to do this is to use a glue gun. The base of the stem can be decorated with green thread if desired.

You need to assemble a beautiful bouquet from ready-made flowers. You can decorate it with branches of living plants. The composition will turn out beautiful and realistic.

Dandelions made of threads on wire

And here are the sunny dandelions. First, wind the yellow yarn around the fork. Using a large needle and strong thread, make two lines down the middle to secure the threads. Apply glue along the line to secure the yarn. We wind the roller tightly using additional thread, fix it with glue again and cut it.

We cut the top, take the green threads and string/glue them onto the thread, wrap the dandelion in the green blank, and tighten the thread. Glue the bottom cut. The photo shows a detailed master class on dandelions.

Ideas for inspiration

You can get ideas for inspiration anywhere. It could be a beautiful piece of jewelry, or an ordinary flower from a flowerbed or bouquet. You can crochet a shape of any complexity, which is why this type of knitting is so popular.

The most picturesque look are voluminous crocheted flowers, which are quite difficult to make, as they have complex patterns and require assembly and starching. Simple flat options can be done right away, having mastered the initial knitting techniques.

To begin with, it is better to use diagrams and descriptions for beginners. This will help you master the principles of creating petals and inflorescences. For convenience, you can also watch a video on crocheting flowers. Later, relying on them, you can create your own masterpieces.

Where can I get the information I need?

What can you use when searching for the desired design option? In terms of content of opportunities for providing knitting tutorials, the Internet is of course in first place.

At the present stage of time, the global network is the first source from which one obtains the necessary information. It allows:

read the recommendations of the masters on their personal websites;
complete a whole training course, including video lessons;
get step-by-step instructions for making your favorite flower or bouquet.

Those who are more passionate about knitting buy colorful illustrated books on the topic, magazines and other printed publications. Over the years, many craftswomen have accumulated entire libraries of such literature in their homes.

Bouquet of threads for knitting in a basket step by step

Features of using threads

A bouquet of knitting threads is created taking into account some features:

For fluffy balls, it is recommended to select the thickest or medium yarn.
The best material for forming inflorescences is acrylic, and the fiber should be a little fluffy and stretchy.
If the technique involves the use of knitting needles, then large elements are created with a thick tool, and small elements are made with thin rods.

To create bouquets you can use different types of yarn and threads

If you choose wool yarn, you should remember its positive characteristics: it repels moisture, elastic texture and durable thread. Handicrafts made from wool will not wrinkle.
It is not recommended to iron finished inflorescences. If you need to iron the craft, this process is performed through gauze or white cotton cloth.
The main condition for working with fibers is not to crush them or wet them.

Sweet bouquet

A handmade bouquet of sweets is an unusual and very popular gift. Everyone will love it, especially children, because you can eat it! And beautiful ladies will be happy to receive not only a very beautiful, but also a very tasty bouquet.

There are a lot of options for candy bouquets. It all depends on your imagination and patience. As an example, we will tell you how to make a bouquet in the form of red roses, inside of which there will be a surprise in the form of a delicious candy.

Cut red and green corrugated paper into rectangles measuring approximately 7x8 and 4.5x7 cm, respectively. The quantity depends on the number of roses you want to make.
Cut one of the corners of the red rectangle into a semicircle.
Fold the green blank along the width like an accordion and cut it halfway along the edge so that when you turn it around, you get a “fence.”
Place any round candy in the middle of the red piece and, twisting the paper clockwise, make a bud.
Take a skewer, insert it on one side of the resulting bud and secure the joint with glue. The bud should sit firmly on the stick.
Make a sepal. To do this, wrap the green blank with the sharp ends facing up at the bottom of the bud, after applying glue.
Fold the uncut piece of green paper diagonally, slightly shifting the corners, and wrap it around the joint so as to hide all the joints. This will be the receptacle.
In the same way, make the number of roses you need.
Gather a bouquet and tie the “stems” with ribbon or rope.
Pack the bouquet in beautiful paper and tie it with a red ribbon.

How to crochet a rose for a hat

Today, there are many patterns on how you can knit a beautiful decorative piece of a headdress using only thread and a hook. Having the desire, all that remains is to choose what kind of decor will be created.

Despite the many options for knitted flowers, they are mainly divided into two types:

Volumetric flowers.
Flat flowers.

At the same time, it is difficult to say which of them is preferable for a beginning needlewoman. The fact is that flat floral products are easier to knit, but in voluminous inflorescences it will not be so visible if there was an accidental mistake.

Watch a video on how to crochet a rose flower for a hat:

The following video perfectly shows how to cast on the first loops and how to finish knitting:

To start knitting you need to cast on 48 air loops (VP).

The first row is knitted as follows: knit a double crochet (Dc) in 4 loops from the hook, then skip one loop of the chain, again Dc in the next loop, skip a loop, and so on until the end of the row.
Second row - VP, turn the work to the other side. Knit 2DC, 2VP, 2DC into the arch. This is done with each arch. The VP is knitted and the fabric is turned over again.
Third row - 7DC is knitted into the arch, a single crochet (SC) is made between the reports, 7DC is repeated again in the next arch, SC and so on.

It turns out to be a long knitted strip. Before cutting the thread, you need to measure at least 10-15cm. Thread this thread into a needle and thread it through every second loop along the cast-on edge. Tighten the thread and secure the end. The beautiful rose is ready!

On paper

Necessary materials for making applique from threads on paper:

bulky multi-colored yarn;
green floss;
cardboard rectangle measuring 7x4 cm;
yellow and white cardboard;
glue;
scissors.

Bouquet of threads for knitting on paper (applique) step by step Design technology:

Wrap fibers onto cardboard rectangles, then cut off the thread edge.
Tie the resulting parts with thread at the top and bottom, and then remove the cardboard.
Cut the workpiece horizontally in half and open the resulting bundles.
Cut off excess threads.
Use similar steps to perform elements from other shades of yarn.
On a cardboard template (A4 format), make 5 notches at the top in the form of small triangles directed inward, and cut 1 such cut in the center at the bottom.
Wrap the floss onto the cardboard, threading it into the cut-out notches; these will be the stems.
Glue prepared pom-poms in any shape onto each green line and spread them out in the form of an inflorescence.
Glue the finished craft onto thick yellow paper, the size of which is slightly larger than the base.

Continuous knitting maple leaf

In the image of the pattern diagram, a black dot marks the beginning of knitting.

We make a chain of 15 VP. Below is the scheme of work:

1p.: 1 VP under., 13 RLS, in the outer st. knit [1 column. without/n +4 VP + 1 column. no/n], 13th column. with double crochet on the other side of the original chain;
2p.: 1 VP under., 13 RLS, tie into an arch from VP [2 columns. without / n +4 VP + 2 columns. no/n], 11th column. without/n.
knitting the next 8p. leaflet - see diagram. Let's continue:
9 rubles: 1 air. p. under., then - RLS according to the scheme, we complete 4 VP;
10 rubles: we begin knitting the side left part: 1 VP, 8 single stitches, 1 air. p. above the stlb without / n the lower r., 1 RLS;
11r.: 1 VP under., 10 StBN, 4 VP;
12r.: 1 VP under., 14 tbsp without/n, 1 air. p. above the stlb without / n the lower row, 1 sc in the sc of the 9th row.

Further knitting of the pattern - see diagram. We attach the even rows with columns without / n to the column without / n of the 9th row.

Without breaking the thread, we knit the second left side of the sheet in the same way, and continue knitting sc until the end of 9 p. on the right, 4 VP.

Next R. we start 1 VP under. and knit the two right parts of the sheet in a mirror image to the left.

Master classes on making bouquets from yarn

You can use cups of yarn to create large and small bouquets. By choosing the right shades of threads, you can create a composition that will look like real flowers. To make bouquets look festive, they need to be decorated with beads, colored paper and dried flowers. Equally important is to design the packaging beautifully.

Further in the article you can consider instructions for making various bouquets from skeins of thread.

"Mimosa"

You can make a bouquet of balls of yarn in the shape of a mimosa branch with your own hands in 1.5 hours.

What you will need for work:

yellow acrylic yarn;
thick green floral wire (No. 20, diameter 1.1 mm);
green corrugated paper;
PVA glue;
small foam balls;
green floral ribbon;
satin ribbon;
wire cutters

First, the wire must be cut into pieces using wire cutters. The table lists the number of segments and their length.

Number of segments	Length, cm
3	30
2	25
6	18
2	15
2	10

Procedure:

First you need to collect the branch on which the inflorescences will be located. Place a 30 cm piece of wire vertically in front of you.
Attach 2 pieces 25 cm long to it. Bend their edges to the sides. Secure the stems with pieces of floral tape at the top and bottom. The lower ends of the wire should be at level 1.
By analogy, wrap 2 pieces of 18 cm each with tape.
Secure 2 wires 15 cm long.
Attach the last 10 cm pieces.
Wrap the resulting stem tightly with floral tape.
Bend back the branches.

Temporarily set aside this stem. Now you need to make 2 branches of leaves. A piece of wire 30 cm, connect with 2 pieces of 18 cm each. Wrap the lower part of the stem with tape. By analogy, make branch 2.
Cut the corrugated paper into strips 5 cm wide. It is important to cut it along the grain and not across it.
Make a fringe on each ribbon by making transverse cuts. The width of the uncut edge is 1 cm, and the width of small strips is 0.5 cm.
Coat the uncut edges of the paper strips with PVA glue.
Wrap them around branches simulating leaves.
Straighten out all the “needles”. Dry the product.
Take a stem intended for inflorescences. Grease the tip of each branch with PVA glue.
Place 1 foam ball on each branch.

Unravel a skein of yellow yarn and twist it into 9 small balls of 5 cm in diameter. There is no need to tighten the threads. The skeins should be light and soft.
Tuck the loose ends of the threads into the balls.
Place the balls on the branches.

Collect leaves and inflorescences into a bouquet, tie the stems with a satin ribbon. Tie a fluffy bow. Trim the excess tape and burn its ends with a lighter to prevent them from unraveling.

Flowers from egg trays

Egg trays are one of the waste materials for handicrafts. Usually, egg containers are thrown into the trash, not knowing what beauty can be created from them! Hand-made flowers from egg trays will decorate your home interior, photo frames, wreaths, mirrors, etc.

To make these flowers you will need:

egg trays (cardboard and plastic can be used);
brush and paint (gouache, acrylic);
scissors;
glue;
wire.

We cut the egg tray into separate sections, after which we use scissors to form the petals of your future flowers from each section. The height of such blanks may vary. We paint the resulting petals with paint, preferably in two layers. Further, depending on the type of flower you are making, one blank can be inserted into another, forming a bud. We fix the elements of the resulting flower with glue.

The materials and process of creating flowers from egg trays are discussed in detail in MK Handicraft Masterpieces:

We bring to your attention the most common types of flowers from egg trays. But remember that you can come up with the flower shape yourself!

Ideas for cool yarn bouquets.

Bouquets in monochromatic colors are always especially subtle and elegant. Due to the artificial hare's tail (such a plant) between the heads, these balls look very believable. Well, then such flowers will turn into a knitted cardigan, for example.

And this is an entirely knitted bouquet, even its base is made of yarn. Only the leg is durable, made of plastic or a thick cardboard cylinder, but still wrapped in thread.

It turns out that even bridal bouquets are made from tangles. And if the bride is also a needlewoman, this bouquet will become some kind of business card for the main character of the celebration. It should be gentle and match both her outfit and the main line of wedding decor.

Well, over time, from these happy wedding balls you can knit the first things for the heir - very symbolic and romantic. And also rational.

To create a bouquet, you can use yarn of different textures: so that some threads are fluffy, others a little rough, and others smooth. And real spikelets and dried flowers will only decorate this combination.

For the birth of a child, you can also give a bouquet of skeins - here is an example of how such a decorative design (probably intended for the mother of a newborn boy) could look like. It’s also conveniently made: some skeins have crochet hooks stuck into them.

An example of how beautiful a single-color bouquet made of yarn can be. Feathers and dried flowers in small quantities will complement it. It is difficult to present accessories to a craftswoman more gracefully.

And in this union, both real flowers (hyacinths) and ball flowers found a combination. Thanks to this, it looks extremely unusual and very elegant. And for some reason it is most associated with March 8th.

Some craftsmen are intimidated by the number of skeins in a composition - they don’t always plan to give so many. Here is an example of a more compact bouquet that still looks original.

The main highlight of such compositions is the absolute utility of the bouquet. It can stand in the house as a decoration for a long time, and then from the yarn that was so pleasing to the eye, the knitter will create beauty on a new level.
