Tools and features of work

Foamiran is an amazing material for making delicate, elegant flowers. It is called plastic suede for its pliability when working with it and its soft velvety texture.

When heated, foamiran becomes soft and accepts the desired truss well. Therefore, when making elements, you will need an iron or a candle, which can be used to heat the material.

To create flowers, you first need to make patterns of petals and leaves. Then, having outlined the template, an element is cut out from foamiran. Or handicraft stores sell special metal forms, when pressed, this form is transferred to the material.

Next, the elements are given the desired shape using stacks of balls of different diameters. To create veins and grooves, sharp stacks or a knife with a rounded end are suitable. Or you can purchase special molds.

With all the necessary tools and materials, you can create a wonderful DIY flower necklace.

This is a step-by-step foamiran craft.

First you need to make a head for the doll out of foil. The foil needs to be stuffed with cotton wool. Then a flesh-colored circle is cut out of plastic suede, heated and pulled onto the frame.

The seam should be at the back of the head so that it can be covered with hair.

The hairstyle is also made from foamiran. Glue plastic suede of the desired color to the head, then cut out strips with scissors and twist them or braid them, or make another hairstyle.

Eyes are drawn with a felt-tip pen. Blush creates a blush.

The same principle - creating a frame from foil - applies to the body. It is also covered with foamiran. The arms and legs are made on a wire frame.

Templates for crafts and patterns for dolls made from foamiran can be downloaded on the Internet.

We prepare everything necessary. For the petals you will need pink foamiran, dry pastel with wet wipes. For the stamens you need red beads and thin wire. We make the leaves from green foamiran. For the branches we prepare thicker wire and green corrugated paper. For the base of the necklace, pink beads. And tools: scissors, glue gun and lighter.

We draw three templates. We make the first one from four petals. The diameter is 3.5 cm. The second also has four petals, but the diameter is 2.5 cm. The third template has three leaves and a diameter of 2.5 cm.

We trace the templates and cut out the petals. The first one is 4 pieces, the second one is 8 pieces and the third one is 4 pieces.

Now we paint the petals with pastels and shade them with a napkin. We do this on both sides.

We paint the centers yellow on both sides as well.

We give the petals a natural shape after heating them over a lighter. The centers should be concave, and the edges should have curves, like real flowers.

We make stamens from wire and beads. You can also purchase ready-made industrial stamens with red tips.

Now we collect four large flowers. They will consist of petals, cut out according to the first and second templates. There will be five stamens inside the flower.

We intertwine the stamens a centimeter from the beads and thread them through the center of the petals of the upper tier. We cut off the ends of the wire, bend them and glue them. Now we glue the petals themselves in the center to the petals of the first tier.

In the same way, we make two smaller flowers, using petals cut out according to the second template. We make buds from triple petals. We place the stamens in the center, and glue the petals so that the bud is half-closed.

We cut out ten leaves from green foamiran and glue them to each flower.

Let's move on to making twigs. We cut ten pieces of wire from 15 to 25 cm long and wrap each piece with corrugated paper.

We twist all the branches together and give them shape by bending and twisting.

Glue flowers to the structure of twigs. We place the large ones in the center, and the small ones at the edges.

We use pink beads to make beads of the desired length and attach a clasp if needed.

Then we glue some of the beads well to the back side of the branches with flowers and let the glue dry.

The result is a delicate and elegant necklace made of flowers and beads.

You can create a necklace to your liking using different colors. You can learn how to make some of their types from the photo collages below.

Panel

Panels and paintings made from foamiran will become the highlight of the interior and will serve as an excellent gift. Before starting production, you should decide on the image and general style. These can be landscapes, flower arrangements, still lifes. Stages of craft design:

Carrying out basic work on the painting - drawing the background, creating convex parts.
Placement of foamiran parts. The elements are prepared in advance using an iron, scissors, and templates.
The workpieces are carefully fixed on the canvas.

Craft "Christmas tree"

Foarmian can be used to make not only romantic bouquets of flowers or hairpins, but also decorations for the New Year's holiday.

For a Foarmian Christmas tree you will need:

green foarmian leaf;
iron;
cardboard;
stapler;
red beads to imitate Christmas tree decorations.

Even those who have to work with foamian for the first time can handle this craft; it is very easy to make.

First you need to cut several strips of foamiana 2 cm wide. Make a fringe out of them by making cuts, stepping back a little from the edges, and ironing all the strips. Roll the cardboard into a cone shape and clamp it on one side with a stapler. Cover everything with fringe and decorate the craft as desired. It is better if these are multi-colored beads, the so-called imitation of Christmas tree decorations.

Crafts made from foamiana are a good find for modern needlewomen. This is one of those options when a hobby can bring not only pleasure, but also a decent profit. After all, crafts made from foam are in great demand, unlike, for example, boring cross-stitch, which can be found at every step. By presenting a doll, bouquet or hairpin made of this material as a gift, you can be sure that such a gift will definitely not go unnoticed.
