Zi Qiao: Artistic Flower Arrangement

As the old saying goes, if you take time out to study, you will start from a young age, not afraid of monotony and repetition, and it will be difficult to succeed if you persist in long-term accumulation.

Yes, that's very good, just like we learn to arrange flowers. Through unremitting efforts, learn to arrange flowers and bring beautiful art to our ordinary life.

In the process of artistic flower arrangement, ribbon knot is an indispensable decorative material in flower arrangement works, which is widely used in ceremonial occasions or ceremonial flower arrangement. It plays the role of adjusting colors, increasing the movement of works and setting off the atmosphere.

Therefore, it is very necessary to learn how to make ribbon knots. Let's learn how to tie a ribbon knot together.

There are many kinds of materials for making ribbon knots. Mainly made of cloth, yarn, silk and plastic.

Ribbon is a kind of fabric woven with rayon through fine technology, generally with stripes or plaid patterns and printing types. Ribbons are crisp, elegant and colorful.

Ribbons are various, colorful and varied in texture, which provide rich materials for the decoration of flower arrangement works, but if they are not chosen properly, they will not play their due role. Therefore, we should pay attention to the following points when matching ribbons:

1. Keep in harmony with decorative items in color, texture and shape.

2. Keep symmetry with the object to be decorated.

3. Maintain the consistency with decorative items in artistic style.

1. How to make a bow

(1) Let's fold it and stick it with four fingers.

(2) Make a circle around four fingers, put the front of the index finger through the index finger and middle finger, and then through the ribbon on it.

(3) finally folded into a knot and tied tightly.

2. Making method of hydrangea knot

(1) Set the size of the hydrangea knot in advance, choose a ribbon with a length of 80 ~ 120 cm, hold the ribbon in your right hand and wrap it in your left hand. The size of the circle can be adjusted by the gap between fingers.

(2) cut into a "V" shape. Flatten the two ends of the wrapped ribbon from the left hand to leave traces, and then cut the two ends into a "V" shape with scissors (the two sides are cut obliquely to the middle, be careful not to cut them). Note that it is thinner here than other places, which is convenient for binding.

(3) Mark the two ends with a "V" to align and overlap, cut the ribbon thin with a thin metal wire or tie it tightly where it has just been cut thin.

(4) Hold the middle part of the ribbon with the left hand, hook it out with the right hand, pull it away from left to right layer by layer, twist it at a certain angle, and adjust it evenly. Pay attention to adjust the sphere while pulling to make the whole hydrangea knot full.

(5) Finally, align the lower ends of the two drooping streamers just put aside, and cut the base of the streamers into a dovetail shape or a diagonal scissors shape with scissors, thus completing the spherical streamer pattern.

3. Making method of double wave knot

(1) Hold the ribbon with the right hand and wrap it around the thumb or forefinger of the left hand. First make a circle, the size of which is the same as that of the thumb, and press it on the intersection point of the center point with the thumb and forefinger. This is the central circle.

(2) Then pinch the ribbon with your left hand and wrap it around the lower right side of the central circle with your right hand to make a wave shape. The ribbon hits the lower left of the center circle, and then winds around a circle of the same size to make waves, still holding it with your fingers. This is the first wave. This wave circle is slightly larger than the upper center circle.

(4) Use a thin metal wire or ribbon to pass through the center of the circle and tie it tightly, or use a stapler to tie it tightly.

(5) Finally, align the lower end of the ribbon just dialed, and cut the base of the ribbon into a dovetail shape or a diagonal shear shape with scissors, and the double-wave knot is completed.

4. How to tie a French knot

(1) Hold the ribbon with the right hand and wrap it around the thumb or forefinger of the left hand. Make a circle of the same size with your thumb, and press it with your thumb and forefinger at the intersection of the center points.

(2) Then pinch the ribbon with your left hand and twist the front of the ribbon with your right hand at the intersection of your thumb and forefinger. Make a circle around the lower right of the central circle and make a wave. The ribbon reaches the lower part of the central circle and then twists, twisting the front end of the ribbon outward. When the ribbon reaches the other side of the central circle, it also makes a wave around a circle of the same size, or it is held with your fingers. This is the first layer of wave circle. This wave circle is slightly larger than the upper center circle.

(3) Make wave circles from the second layer to the fourth layer, and make another circle at the lower part of the first circle. Also twist at the central joint, turn the front side up and then turn around, and twist at the central point every time, usually 3 ~ 4 turns.

(4) Reserve the required length at the end of the ribbon and wrap it around the intersection point of the finger center.

(5) Use a thin iron wire or ribbon to pass through the center of the circle and tie it tightly.

(6) Hold the left hand tightly, and pull the circle obliquely with the right hand to adjust the position.

(7) Finally, cut the tail of the ribbon, divide it into two sections, one is long and the other is short, cut the tail into a dovetail shape, scrape off the tail of the ribbon with a blade, and naturally curl it after relaxation to increase the sense of movement.

The peacock's dirty feet detract from its beauty and humiliate its dazzling screen wings. The production of ribbon knots is meticulously made by skilled craftsmen, so beautiful.
