Did you know that decorative flowers can be made from a wide variety of materials? One of the most affordable is nylon. Let's see how to make original and aesthetic flowers from nylon with your own hands for interior decoration.

Any modern girl is very familiar with such a wardrobe item as nylon tights. Thick, ultra-thin, colored and plain - they have one thing in common: nylon tights very quickly become unusable. The slightest puff and elegant tights turn into useless trash. Look in your closet - you'll probably find at least a couple of damaged nylon tights. You can throw them away, or you can make your own original interior decoration - nylon flowers.

Spend the evening creatively - make your favorite flower from scrap material. This is not as difficult as it might seem, especially if you have a detailed master class in front of you. so what? Do you want to try yourself as a florist?

How can you use old tights?

If the tights are torn and have arrows, they can be successfully used in the countryside and at home in a variety of ways.

As a cloth for wiping dust, shoes, and removing animal hair from clothes. It is very good to clean glossy surfaces, glass, and tiles with tights.
Use a broom as a cover to prevent it from getting covered in straw
For storing onions and garlic
Like an attachment on a vacuum cleaner. If some small and necessary thing is lost on the floor, so that it can be found, but not sucked into the vacuum cleaner, you can stretch a piece of nylon fabric over it, which will act as a catcher
Like tow for insulating windows. Foam rubber, which is often used to plug cracks in windows that have not been replaced with metal-plastic ones, soon begins to rot or crumble. Tights rolled into a tube retain heat perfectly, do not sweat and can last for years
For painting surfaces. If the paint in the can is lumpy, or debris has gotten into it, it can be saved. All this heterogeneity will remain inside if you put nylon tights on the neck of the jar. They will let the paint through, but not the rubbish. Also, dyeing can be done with the tights themselves, then the texture of the surface will be very interesting
Make a sieve. You can sift flour through it, drain pasta, squeeze out cottage cheese. Tights are even used for brewing tea so that tea leaves do not fall into portioned cups. You can also filter whitewash chalk solution, wallpaper glue, etc. through a sieve made from tights.
Tie up the tomatoes. Summer residents have long been accustomed to using tights in such an unusual way. They are cut into strips, which subsequently play the role of strong and elastic ropes
As patches for mosquito nets or instead of mosquito nets altogether
Like chopiki. If the socket for the screw needs to be strengthened and a chopper is not at hand, you can insert a nylon flap into the hole made in the surface and melt it. The screw will hold perfectly

You can use old nylon tights to lift up tomatoes.

rugs

part time for pens and pencils

Do-it-yourself dolls made from nylon tights? Step-by-step instruction

Dolls made from old nylon tights and stockings are called stocking dolls. They serve as interior decoration, as a talisman for housing (we are talking about cute little brownies). Children also play with stocking dolls. To make such a beauty, you only need basic sewing skills. Master classes with photos and videos will help beginning puppet makers.

The first thing to start with is to choose the type of stocking doll. There are:

Frame stocking dolls. From nylon, fillers and a dense frame (it can be made of cardboard, wire, foam, etc.) a toy is made with all parts of the body, which can even be movable. Frame dolls are most often made for children.
Soft body dolls. Looks like regular soft toys
Doll head. Sometimes she is with her hands, in a fluffy dress. These dolls are hung on the walls.
Pop dolls. They differ in that they have expressive faces and... sirloin. The priests are designed to express the mood of their owner. If he is in good spirits, the doll looks at the guest with a sweet face, if not, he turns his butt to everyone

frame (cardboard, wire, plastic bottle, etc.)
stuffing (cotton wool, padding polyester)
fabric for clothing
decor for clothing (rhinestones, ribbons, lace, etc.)
paints, cosmetics, brushes, toothpicks for painting a doll's face

The simplest nylon doll can be made like this:

The doll's frame can be twisted from wire. You need to remember how wire men were made in childhood, make one, and then put the parts of a toy from a stocking on it
The head is made first. To do this, stuffing is placed in the stocking, a ball of the required size is formed, and tied with a knot. Cut off the rest of the stocking. You can make a seam in place of the knot, then the doll will turn out more neat. A window is left for the wire frame
The doll's face is created using stitches that tighten the nylon in the right places. This is how you get eyebrows, nose, nasolabial folds, lips and chin. Next, she gets her makeup done. The eyes of the doll can be drawn or sewn on ready-made
The doll's body is made simple, oval. If desired, the chest, navel, and butt are also decorated using stitches.

The doll's parts are placed on the frame and sewn to the body
You can get creative with your hair by making it out of threads, synthetic fibers, etc.
Doll clothes and accessories are made

IMPORTANT: To get a doll with a natural complexion, it is not enough to choose flesh-colored tights. They need to be boiled using a special technology.

Creative people do not stop at mastering already known types of needlework - they constantly come up with new creative ideas. Many needlewomen already know how to sew a tilde doll with their own hands, and from the moment products made from thin nylon became cheap and accessible to everyone, ideas appeared on how to create a doll from nylon tights.

Tights dolls: main varieties

Since master classes describing how to make a doll from nylon tights appeared relatively recently, there is no clear classification of toys for this type of creativity.

However, soft dolls made of nylon and padding polyester can be divided into several types, depending on their appearance and manufacturing methods.

Tumbler dolls

To create a doll, not only nylon tights are used - stockings and socks are also great for this. At the end of the work process, the master receives small soft toys of a round or oval shape with conventionally designated limbs.

Simple master classes on creating this type of doll are great for teaching novice handicrafts.

DIY butts

Another simple way to create a doll from nylon tights. From the name you can understand the peculiarity of the doll - the face and butt are especially prominent in the work process. Masters jokingly call this toy a fortuneteller - which side it turns to you in the morning, such a day awaits you.

The doll needs to be made in parts: first make all parts of the body (head, hands, feet, butt), and then sew them to the clothes.

Frame doll

Frame toys take longer to make than previous types; they become taller and take on an appearance close to human.

The main material for the frame is considered to be rigid wire wrapped with filler, but in addition to it, plastic bottles can also be used.

Nylon dolls - master class for beginners

If this is your first time deciding to make a nylon soft toy, take note of the method for creating a product from stockings. Such a master class will not take you much time at all - after practicing several times, you will learn how to make a cute tumbler doll in just an hour!

Take a medium-length nylon sock and stuff it tightly with white filler, like padding polyester. Pull the edges of the product together with thread.

Mark the neck as follows - in the right place, sew the sock with the seam forward with a needle in a circle and tighten. Wrap the thread several times and tie to secure.

Make the legs in a similar way - use an overcast stitch to mark two small circles at the bottom of the product from different sides and pull them together.

From below, in the area of the seam of the sock, stick a needle, take it out on the stomach and stick it again next to it. Lightly tighten the small seam. You will get a belly button. Return the needle to the bottom seam and use it to secure the thread.

After the preparatory work with the body is completed, the doll made of nylon tights needs to be endowed with emotions, giving conventional facial features.

Shape the nose in the same way as the legs, but use a circle with a smaller radius.
The ears can be made as follows: pinch a small area on the side of the head with your fingers and pull it together with thread once.
In the right place, make three black stitches - eyelashes.
Under the eyelashes, stick a needle with an eye bead threaded through it and bring it out in the place where one of the corners of the mouth should be, and pull it slightly. Repeat the same action on the other side. This way you get both eyes and cheeks at once.
Use red thread in one fold or a permanent marker to designate a smiling mouth.

Cut off the tied tail on the baby doll's head - the excess material will be useful for sewing the arms. Cut it in half and sew it up to create two fabric “sausages”. Stuff them with soft material and sew them to the body.

If desired, sew long hair from yarn to the head so that the baby turns into a girl. To finish a doll from nylon tights, you need to make her into toy clothes at your discretion.

Control the tension of the working thread and nylon yourself: for example, the cheeks need to be tightened more in order to better highlight, and the navel can barely be defined. But do not overdo it, otherwise you may tear the working material.

Do-it-yourself frame dolls made of nylon: step-by-step instructions

If the previous master class seemed too simple to you, try making a doll from nylon tights on a wire frame. Thanks to the rigid wire, the toy's limbs can take different positions.

Head

Typically, the most time spent on creating the head and shaping the facial features.

Take a piece of padding polyester and squeeze it into a tight ball the size of a fist. Place the soft ball into the nylon compression bag. Form another smaller lump and stick it on the side - this is the future nose. Tie the opening of the nylon bag, but not tightly.

Insert a needle into the side of the upper part of the nose, pull it out from the other side and pull it a little, forming the bridge of the nose.

From below, form the nostrils in a similar way.

Make thread loops around the nostrils.

Pull the loops together to clearly outline the nose.

Through the hole at the bottom of the head, add 2 more identical small soft lumps in the places where the cheeks should be, and an oblong piece in place of the future mouth.

Insert the needle into the place where the left corner of the mouth should be, and bring it out at the place of the left eye - tighten until the cheek is formed. Repeat the same on the right side.

Stretch a tight thread between the corners of your lips—a smile.

Pull another thread under the first, forming the lower lip. With each lip manipulation, bring the needle into the eye sockets to gradually form the sockets for the eyes.

Insert the needle in the middle of the smile and bring it out in the center of the upper lip.

Tighten the thread, forming the lips into a bow.

Using a few back and forth movements of the needle, lengthen the bridge of your nose.

Glue the eyes in the right place - you can buy them at a special craft store or borrow them from an old unnecessary doll. Color your cheeks, lips and eyebrows with acrylic paints.

For hair, put an old toy wig on the doll or buy a new one at a specialty store.

The hair can be made from yarn and floss in the same way as on a Waldorf doll.

Torso

After working on the toy head, the doll needs to be equipped with a wire frame. Take as a basis a ready-made diagram with the approximate dimensions of the limbs.

Even a novice needleworker can easily make a wire base, but it will take patience to calculate the length of the limbs and bend the proportional sections.

Make a frame of the palms - connect together 5 short pieces of wire, proportional to human fingers. Wrap the wire tightly with filler.

Cut out small square pieces of nylon and cover your palms with them.

Treat your hands in the same way as your face, giving your fingers relief.

Cover the body frame tightly with padded material. Screw the head and hands in the right place.

Finish processing the frame by wrapping it with nylon.

This doll made from nylon tights can be dressed up in any doll clothes that suit her size, or you can sew a costume yourself. Thanks to the fact that the toy suits many different outfits, you have the opportunity to complement her look in any way - braid her hair, decorate her with beaded bracelets or a hairpin with flowers made of cold porcelain.

Flowers have always been considered the best decoration for the home. However, they have a huge drawback - they wither too quickly, and even the most luxurious bouquet has to be thrown away after 6-7 days. That is why at all times craftsmen have strived to create a rose, tulip, daffodil, chrysanthemum, etc. from paper, fabric, plastic, wax. Everyone remembers the fairy tale about how Danila the craftsman made a magically beautiful flower from such a seemingly unsuitable material as malachite.

And today there is no shortage of craftsmen who can create beauty from anything, even from old nylon tights. Moreover, bouquets made from this type of textile are often simply indistinguishable from the real thing and even more beautiful. That is why there are always many people who want to learn how to make flowers from nylon.

What will you need?

To make such delicate and beautiful crafts, first of all, you will need nylon. Of course, you can take the top of your or your daughter’s stockings or tights, since children’s models are brighter and you can find an option in the desired color. In addition, specialized stores today sell skeins of nylon for crafts 50-80 cm long (both plain and with smooth or contrasting color transitions and patterns).

To make flowers from nylon, you also need to purchase 2 types of wire:

rigid floristic, used for making stems;
flexible, different colors, designed to create a frame of petals.

The first type of wire, in turn, comes with a plastic or paper coating. Typically, its standard length ranges from 30 to 80 cm. As for flexible, it is sold by the meter, and there are options of different thicknesses, with numbers from 18 to 30.

You also need to get templates with a diameter of 1.7 to 7.5 cm. If they are not sold in your city, you can glue such cylinders yourself from a sheet of fairly thick, but easily bendable cardboard.

In addition, to make flowers from nylon with your own hands, you will need green tape, with which the parts will be fastened together and the stems will be shaped.

Additional accessories and tools

In order for the flowers to turn out as similar to real ones as possible, it is also worth purchasing ready-made stamens and pistils made of plastic. It will be ideal if you can also find ready-made sepals and leaves.

As for what tools you will need to make flowers from nylon, their set is quite simple. These are round nose pliers, pliers, scissors. You will also need cotton wool, threads to match the color of nylon and a glue gun.

Flowers made of nylon: master class on making violets

To create such a craft you need:

If you wish, you can make 4-5 of these crafts and put them in a small vase or include them in various floral arrangements.

Making a bud

When creating compositions based on nylon flowers, you must also use buds. They can be made as follows:

two identical wire loops are twisted from wire;
connect them together so that you get something like an attachment for beating eggs on mixers;
put cotton wool inside the “bud”;
cover it with nylon of the desired color and tie it at the base with thread;
wrap the base with tape.

Gladioli

Flowers made of nylon and wire can also look like gladioli. To do this, you just need to work a little more, since you need to place three or four flowers on one stem, each of which should consist of 6 petals. A special feature of this craft is that the leaves of the “gladiolus” should be exactly the same as the petals, only green.

Kala

This is probably the easiest version of the craft, which is based on flowers made of nylon and wire. Even a beginner can handle this job.

In addition to traditional materials, you will also need a piece of cotton wool for the stamen. This part is made as follows:

make a small loop on the wire;
wrap it with a piece of cotton wool;
pull the yellow nylon on top and secure it with a thread at the bottom.

There is also an alternative option. To make a stamen in this way, the edge of a piece of yellow nylon is clamped by bending a piece of wire with a length slightly larger than the size of the part that you want to get. Then they wrap the rod tightly around it and secure it at the bottom with a thread.

one large petal is made from white nylon and wire;
insert a stamen into it;
wrap the base with green tape and continue to wrap the stem, adding two or three leaves of a characteristic shape.

Wildflowers

Thanks to the properties of flexible wire, petals of various shapes can be made. This means that it is possible to create flowers from nylon of almost any type. For example, blue poppies look very gentle and romantic.

During production, an important role is played by the bright yellow stamens, of which there should be quite a lot. If you were unable to purchase them in the store, then try to make these parts yourself. To do this, you need to wrap a damp piece of cotton wool around pieces of yellow wire (5-6 cm long) to make a fairly dense ball. When the “stamen” dries, it needs to be dipped in yellow gouache for a few seconds.

As for the petals, they need to be formed based on a template with a diameter of 4 cm. Then you need to give the wire loop the shape of a petal with a zigzag edge. In addition, unlike the violet flower described in the previous master class, the blue poppy has a pronounced sepal, which will need to be created by tightly wrapping the base of the flower with green tape.

Now you know how flowers are made from nylon, and you can try your hand at the art of making beautiful compositions for home decoration.
