Decor decoration for hair from year to year is increasingly popular with fashionistas. Hairpins, crab, comb and elastic band from satin ribbons (made by oneself) are irreplaceable accessories for all occasions. They are suitable for creating both a romantic and a playful image.

For the manufacture of such handicrafts, Kansas technique is widely used . She came from Japan and won the hearts of many needlewomen around the world. In ancient times, geisha adored decorating their voluminous hairpins with hairpins adorned with unusual flowers. Their petals had to be stacked in a special way, the knowledge of which has come down to our time.

The elastic band made from satin ribbons of Kanzash can be decorated with flowers, butterflies and other decorative elements. We will go into details, how to make petals, combine them into one and fix them on hair accessories.

Choosing the basis

Before you start, you need to choose the right materials. Eraser made of satin ribbons should be created with their own hands on the basis of the most appropriate decoration for this purpose. There are certain rules for choosing gums for decoration. Among the main tips can be identified the following.

Pay special attention to the material from which the accessory is made. This is especially important for girls with long thick hair, because they need strong and reliable elastic bands that do not tear at the most inopportune moment. In addition, low-quality ornaments negatively affect the structure of the hair, making them brittle and weak.

Many girls prefer to buy office supplies. They securely fix the hairstyle and do not allow disobedient strands to get out of it. But to remove such an accessory, without tearing out a considerable amount of hair, is virtually impossible. Therefore, it is better to abandon them, choosing the material for the job.

Another unsuitable for use option - roughly lined with rubber bands with metal clips. They create too much pressure on the trunks of the hairs, which is why they significantly damage the structure. Especially away from these accessories you need to keep girls with dry and brittle hair. The elastic band made of satin ribbons, made with their own hands, should bring joy, and not suffering. Therefore, choose a softer and more gentle foundation for its creation.

For example, silicone rubber is perfect for this purpose. From the satin ribbons, you can make any decorations for yourself. It can be either transparent or matching the color of your hair. With her help, any hairstyle is quickly put in order, while the accessory is virtually invisible.

Despite all its advantages, this material has one significant drawback - fragility. You can fine-tune it, but enjoying the result of your creativity is unlikely to last long, as the accessory can tear at the most inopportune moment.

Optimal choice

Another good option - a rubber band with a special hook. They are presented in various sizes and colors, perfectly retain the hair, do not pull the strands behind them when you spread your hair. But they are very difficult to find both in the markets and in stores. If you are lucky enough to stumble upon such an accessory, take it without delay and decorate it with ribbons.

A simple, convenient and affordable option is the usual rubber bands made of soft fabric. As a rule, they are sold three in a package. They are easy to get, and they do not create problems both during decoration and during further wearing.

So, with the rubber band, we decided. Now we move on to the selection of the remaining materials. Depending on what kind of jewelry you want to make, you need to take the relevant details. Let's consider some of the most popular master classes on decorating bands with bands.

Lush flower

In order to make this magnificent and elegant flower and decorate your hair, you will need:

• A satin ribbon of three shades of the same color (its width should be a quarter of an inch);
• One large bead and many small ones (preferably, they should be golden or silvery);
• Ruler;
• Super glue;
• Circle of cardboard, 4 centimeters in diameter;
• scissors;
• The narrowest gift ribbon;
• And, of course, an elastic band in the tone of working materials.

Work process

Cut the satin ribbon of each shade into pieces of 10 centimeters. Make a loop of them, folding each piece in half and gluing the ends together. Then attach the cardboard to the elastic band and fix the finished petals on it. Place them in a circle, alternating between different shades. You can place them less often or more tightly - as you like.

Now cut the gift ribbon into 4 fragments of 12 centimeters each. Fix the strips according to the principle of the snowflake beams. Here's how to make an elastic band of satin ribbons with your own hands. The master class advises further to apply another layer of colored loops and cover them with another batch of shiny rays. This time, cut 8-centimeter strips and attach them on the same principle as before.

Now go to the final stage of decoration. To decorate the core of the flower and at the same time cover all the joints from fixing the tapes, glue a large bead in the center. And to give the handicrafts extra volume and unusualness, decorate the ends of the strips from the gift ribbon with beads to it in tone.

We connect the leaves to the case

The elastic band from satin ribbons can be decorated with their own hands not only with a separate flower, but also with leaves to it. To work on such an accessory, you will need:

• Monophonic satin ribbon, a quarter of a centimeter wide;
• Strips of the same color, but with a pattern (they should be 1 mm larger than the base material);
• Green tape (width - 0.25 centimeters);
• Great rhinestones;
• A piece of glass;
• Burnout;
• Iron ruler;
• Super glue;
• Needle and thread;
• Conventional scissors;
• Elastic in tone to the main material.

First - a flower

Put a satin ribbon with a pattern on the glass, measure on it 5 fragments of 7 centimeters and cut them using a burner.

Fold the strips in half and connect the tips of each of them so that you get triangular petals. Put them on top of each other and glue to make each piece keep its shape.

Sew and pull the rays at the base so that beautiful long oblong hollows appear inside them. Do this operation with each petal separately.

Lay the elements in a circle and fasten them together using a thread. Pull its ends and tighten them tight. Then spread the formed petals. You should get the first flower. The elastic band made of satin ribbons, made by hand, consists of two or more such tiers, so let's proceed to work on the next of them.

Work with a monophonic satin ribbon start on the same principle as in the previous scheme. But this time we need 7 cuts of 9 centimeters each. Place the fabric on the glass, measure out the desired number of pieces with the ruler and detach them using the burner.

Bend each petal in a triangle. Fasten the tips with glue and sew the base, tightening the thread. Now gather them all together and securely tie them together. At this stage of work, your elastic band from satin ribbons is almost ready. The master class, step by step describing the process of its creation, further recommends that the two layers be joined together.

Now - the leaves

Glue a flower with five petals on top of just made and go to the creation of leaves. They are done on the same principle as the previous elements. Cut the burner from the green tape 3 pieces of 15 centimeters.

The ends of each of them must form corners. Glue them each part, turn it from the wrong side to the front side, and then combine the three finished leaves into one composition.

Attach them under the bottom flower, and from above, in the central part, attach a rhinestone. When the glue dries, sew it to the elastic band.

Bows: blanks

What else can be an elastic band made from satin ribbons? The master class (instruction) will tell you how to decorate it with a bow. Make it even easier than a flower.

For work you will need three kinds of ribbons of different widths: 3.3 centimeters, and also 0.6 and 1.3. Each layer of the craft is made of a strip of a certain type. For the first level, you need cuts of 18 cm each. For the second one - 28, and for the third - 4.

Burn the candle with the cut edges of each piece so that they do not dissolve. Now bend the widest ribbon in half, putting each of its tips in the center. Sew the workpiece in the middle with a thread using small stitches. Tightly tighten it and wind the bow several times to better secure it, and tie it.

We form bows

Now take a tape with a width of 0.6 centimeters and form the same shape from it, attaching it from above to the previous fragment.

After that, wrap the composition around the center of the remaining strip and connect its ends on the back part so that they can not be seen.

From the remaining cuts make the same bow. Sew both decorations to the elastic bands. To facilitate your work, you can pull the accessory on the cap from under the deodorant. So it will be stretched, and decorating decorative elements will become much more convenient. Elastic band made of satin ribbons, photo of which can be used as an example while working on new ornaments, is ready. Wear it with pleasure!
