How to make silk screen flowers

1. Purchase the materials needed to make wire mesh flowers, first of all, floral wire (this type of wire is special wire for making wire mesh flowers). Buy the appropriate size according to the number and type of flowers you make, including No. 18, No. 24,

No. 26, No. 28, etc. The larger the number, the thinner the wire.

Secondly, buy a screen flower sleeve of suitable size. Now there are sleeves with diameters of 1.5CM, 2CM, 3CM, 4CM, 5CM, 6.5CM and 7.5CM on the market for you to choose from.

Finally, purchase the corresponding screen fabric according to the color of the flowers you make.

2. Wrap the floral wire around the sleeve, cross-wind the head and tail ends and tighten them. Cut the wire two centimeters away from the surface of the sleeve, and then remove the wire from the sleeve. A flower stem is ready.

, set aside for later use.

3. Take a piece of wire and form it into a circle. It doesn’t have to be very round, just roughly the shape of a petal is enough. This is the skeleton of the petals.

Then put the purchased wire mesh flatly into the pre-made wire ring, straighten it toward the bottom of the petals, and then use a needle and thread to fix the wire mesh at the bottom of the petals, cut off the excess wire mesh, and tie it appropriately.

Adjust the shape of the petals.

4. Fix the stamens on the pedicel, and then tie the prepared petals on the pedicel one by one. Be careful not to cut the thread during this process. Only when all the petals of a flower are tied can it be cut.

.

5. When the flowers are assembled, add a few green leaves to the peduncle. Please refer to the method of petals.

Then use green or brown paper tape to wrap the flower stems, and stretch and deform the petals and leaves appropriately to make the silk screen flowers look more vivid.
