Mimosa made of corrugated paper. Spring group decoration. Craft “Mimosa branch in a creative vase.” Master class How to make a mimosa flower with your own hands

Of all the flowers, children and adults love to make mimosa the most. These yellow little balls with green “branchy” leaves create unusual bouquets, cards, and paintings. embroidered, created from satin ribbons, knitted, sculpted, burned, but mimosa made from paper is especially interesting. Children can make individual branches with their own hands and even build entire bouquets.

Applications with kids

Toddlers (1-3 years old) do not like to wait, so prepare in advance a small landscape sheet, cotton wool, PVA glue, a toothpick (cut off the corners immediately), and green double-sided paper (cut into thin strips).

Now show your child how to make a mimosa with your own hands from cotton wool (it can be replaced with a soft napkin). Tearing off the lump, roll it with your fingers, dip it in glue and glue it onto paper. Once you have glued all the balls, place a toothpick with leaves between them. The child will only have to use finger paints to paint his mimosa.

With children aged three to four years old, practice the ramping technique. Thanks to it, voluminous mimosas from corrugated paper are obtained, and children develop Prepare for work yellow, green and brown paper (corrugated, tracing paper or, in extreme cases, double-sided colored paper), PVA glue, cardboard. Children should roll a sausage from a brown strip and glue it in the middle of the sheet. This will be a branch.

Mimosa using the ramping technique

Glue small branch sausages to it. Then roll the yellow squares (2x2 cm or 1.5x1.5 cm) into balls. Let the child first crumple the leaf, then begin to squeeze it to crumple the corners, and only then twist the resulting lumps with his fingers.

The older the child, the smaller the squares can be taken. Immediately cut out the leaves from green paper, bend them and cut them into narrow strips. Glue several leaves to the branches and place mimosa balls on top of them. They can be glued with a second layer.

Place a couple more leaves between the mimosa or on top of it. The background can be painted over with paints or pencils. Frame the picture and hang it on the wall. In this style, you can make mimosas from corrugated paper, like artificial flowers.

To do this you will need a skewer, green and yellow paper or napkin, and glue. Cut the wire into small pieces.

mimosa branch

Then take a square of napkin, place a wire on it, and begin to crumple the paper, forming a ball. Cover the wire with green paper. To form fluffy balls, dip them in glue and then dip them in colored yellow semolina. Leave the flowers to dry while you make the leaves.

You can draw a leaf like a fern and cut each branch into small strips. Another option is to cut out a regular wide leaf, like a tulip, and cut it into strips. But there is a third option for making leaves. Cut a long piece of corrugated paper into narrow strips.

Now look at what kind of paper mimosa sprig you get. Take a skewer, stick the edge of green paper on it, place a couple of balls, screw on the wire and wrap the leaves in a spiral. If you do everything correctly, the striped leaves will look in different directions.

To make the balls look organic, carefully pierce the green paper with wire, and then wrap it around the twig. In some places you can insert bouquets of balloons. To do this, connect together several wires with flowers. According to this plan, you make the remaining branches, put them in a vase and get a whole bouquet. This paper mimosa looks like a real one from afar.

Flowers using quilling technique

Using this technique, you can make mimosa in three ways.

  1. Roll a strip of yellow paper into a tight roll (a circle with the end of the strip glued together). The diameter of such a circle is no more than five millimeters. This type of flower is suitable for creating small unopened flowers that form the top of a branch.
  2. You also make a tight roll, which you then slightly push forward, forming a cup.
  3. Cut a strip of yellow paper into narrow pieces. Then you wind it into a tight roll, glue the end together, and shake the strips thoroughly. It turned out to be a blossoming flower.

This paper mimosa is easy to make with your own hands and is suitable for postcards, vases or paintings. Let's start by creating a flower. Glue the flowers made using the third method onto a skewer wrapped in green corrugated paper. At the same time, some balls are very fluffy, some retain the shape of a bud. Glue the mimosa tightly to each other on the stick on all sides.

Glue the leaves under the flowers. In this case, a wide, long sheet, cut into narrow pieces, will be used. To add realism, bend the sheet vertically and round each strip with scissors or a pencil to create the visual effect of wind.

Mimosa with tulips

The paper turns out beautiful, they just require more painstaking care, attentiveness and perseverance. Let's look at how to make a paper mimosa with tulips.

  • Prepare the background of the picture by drawing the sky and the sun's rays.
  • Cut out a vase from paper or paint with watercolors.
  • Prepare a mimosa made according to the third method.
  • Make some sprigs for mimosa. To do this, take a green wire, connect it into a twig and wrap it with a corrugated strip.
  • Cut out the leaves for the mimosa and tulip at once.
  • Make several branches in advance (meaning paper mimosa).
  • You make tulips as follows. Place squares of paper on top of each other, roll them into a tube to the middle, forming a triangle. Now fold each edge to the top of the triangle and twist it into a petal. Attach the petals to the bud on the stem so that the edges are convex (curled).
  • Collect tulips by stem.

Now place the branches on the picture and glue them in order. Frame your work and admire the masterpiece.

Mimosa from paper: we create a miracle with our own hands

Bouquets can be made entirely using the quilling technique. To do this, find a beautiful photo of a vase and print it on a printer. Cut it out and glue it onto the base of the picture. To create volume, sometimes they select fabric to match the color of the vase, cut thick foam rubber to its shape, cover it with fabric, decorate it and glue it to cardboard.

Now see how to make a paper mimosa in a painting. Lightly mark the direction of the branches on the canvas with a pencil. Place a trial version of colors without glue. Work with the direction of the branches.

Once you like the bouquet option, take a photo of it and work from it. Start gluing the first layer of flowers and leaves. Then you increase the volume with subsequent layers. Sometimes a leaf is inserted between the balls. At the base of the vase, glue more leaves, the bend of which will hide seams or unevenness in the work. Despite its simplicity, a 30x30 centimeter painting may require half a month of work. But the result is stunning in its realism.

How to make mimosa with your own hands on March 8

We especially love spring holiday cards with mimosa. Such work is often done by schoolchildren. To work, you will need tape reels, corrugated cardboard, crepe paper, glue, and white Whatman paper. First, prepare the base of the card. Cover the bobbins inside and out with corrugated cardboard.

Make tight rolls and cover the sides with rings on one side. Now you glue the two rings together and you get an interesting craft. Paper mimosa is created using the third method (fluffy balls). Glue the leaves to the bottom ring and place the balls on top. The flowers should be on top of the figure eight, and not fall into the ring. If the leaves cannot support the weight of the balls, then make ready-made mimosa branches using any method described above and glue them to the ring.

Now circle the resulting figure eight on whatman paper and cut it out. In the top ring, write your congratulations and stick the craft on whatman paper. The result was a gorgeous craft with congratulations and flowers.

Brief summary

The most popular flower for crafts is the paper mimosa. You can create unusual souvenirs, postcards, paintings, bouquets with your own hands. Try making small crafts with mimosa and you will see how colorful the work with it is.

My soul became warmer,

There is no limit to fun

Our smiles are from ear to ear -

We are very excited about spring!

With the arrival of spring, all teachers try to transform the group, “saturate” it with spring colors. We all look through the materials of our colleagues, thinking about how we can use this in our creativity, of course we come up with a lot ourselves, carefully think through the design, coming up with new and new options, and we begin to think about it in advance, one might say, when there is still snow and it’s still outside. winter.

But sometimes (and this happens to me more often) it happens completely by accident, ideas come up that I have never thought about. That’s what happened this time (I’m taking a little break from the master class) After the holiday, a sprig of mimosa was left standing in a vase in our group, decorating and delighting with its smell. I decided to talk about it with the children, examine it and draw a mimosa from life. Of course, drawing from life is a strong word; I drew the branch in advance, but I suggested that the children draw yellow flowers with cotton swabs. Children love to draw using this technique at any age and therefore the activity brought great joy to the children. It was a pleasure not only to draw, but also, of course, to look at the mimosa. But while looking at it, the mimosa kept crumbling, apparently the time had already come, but I definitely wanted to touch it with my fingers and smell it, yes, there was one more inconvenience - the vase was cute, but small, and tried to fall on its side from children’s touches. This is where the idea came to make an artificial mimosa sprig, because no matter what you say, I’ll have to part with the real one, and I’ll definitely have to part with a new vase so that my children can take part. And the vase must certainly be “created,” that is, creative, original. Such work will definitely take its rightful place in the spring design of the group, I thought, and began, as they say, to “create” with my kids.



So I came to the master class itself. The master class will consist of two parts. The first part was made by me, the second was a joint creation.

Purpose.

Group interior decoration. Can be used as an original gift.

Target.

Making a mimosa sprig and a vase with your own hands.

Tasks.

Develop creative imagination and fantasy in children

Continue to improve children's creative skills

Expand cognitive interest

Materials.

Green crepe paper, yellow chenille wire, dry twig, acrylic pearlescent paints, colored tape, white cardboard, thick cardboard, tape, glue, brush with foam at the end.


Progress.

The first part I completed was creating a mimosa sprig.

Cut a strip of about 2 cm from a roll of crepe paper (the entire length of the paper)


Cut with scissors and unfold.


We wrap a branch from a tree.


We cut the chenille wire into pieces of 4-5 cm.


We wrap wire around the entire branch and form flowers.

The mimosa sprig is ready.


Let's move on to the second part - joint creativity.

Cut the white cardboard in half lengthwise. (for the vase we needed 4 of these parts, but you can make a polyhedron and make it from 6-8 parts, you can give the children a whole sheet, and then cut it)


On these strips, children paint with acrylic pearlescent paints (stamping method) with sticks made from bad brushes and a dish sponge (with the hard part of the sponge facing down) cut into several parts. It is advisable to use this kind of paint; it dries quickly, shines, and then does not get dirty even if water gets in. While working, I give each child one color, then the children exchange sticks and paints (during this time the paint dries) In the end, everyone will get a multi-colored stripe.



When the paint dries well, glue thick cardboard on the back side to make the vase stable.

We turn it over and on the side where the children drew, glue colored tape to the joints.


We place it vertically, draw it well along the folds (can be laminated, it will be more durable and can be wiped clean), form a rhombus, a rectangle - whatever you like.

The result is a creative, unusual vase using children's creativity, which will fit well into the spring interior of the group and will delight everyone - kids, teachers, parents. I believe that such a vase can be made as a gift for the holidays; older children will cope with this task on their own, and instead of ribbon you can use paper, because now you can find both flowers and polka dots...

I hope you, dear friends, liked our work.

Close the scissors completely and move the threads to the tip of the scissors


We attach the wire to the threads and tie it



Take the second scissors and cut the threads as shown in the photo


We got such a wonderful ball on a wire, we make about 20 of these balls so that the mimosa turns out lush.


We take green corrugated paper and measure out strips 6 cm long and 1 cm wide, we need as many of them as we have flower blanks. Let's cut them out.


We begin to wrap the stem of our flowers, first spreading PVA glue so that the stem sticks to the wire.


We do this work with all the flowers.


We take green corrugated paper, fold it like an accordion and measure 0.7 mm and cut it off



We will wrap our mimosa with this strip of paper - while collecting the flowers into a branch


We connect our flowers using green tape and glue


Add 1 more flower, first spreading it with glue. We do this work until we get a lush mimosa sprig







To add volume you need several of these branches.


Now our mimosas do not have enough leaves, for this we need green corrugated paper, take measurements of 15*3 cm, cut it out and shape it into a leaf. We need about 7 such leaves
