We decided to try to mold flowers from polymer clay? The master class will help you with this: here are descriptions from simple products to the most difficult.

Modeling flowers from polymer clay is probably the most interesting kind of working with plastic. A skilled craftswoman makes the products divinely graceful, so fragile in appearance - but strong enough to be worn as a brooch, necklace or bracelet. You can decorate the interior with a souvenir ikebana. You will often hear from your guests words of admiration with a touch of slight distrust: have you really made such beauty yourself ?! But the most chic is a wedding bouquet made of polymer clay. Unlike real flowers, it will never wither, which means it can be preserved as one of the first family heirlooms.

How to make polymer clay flowers?

Before making polymer clay flowers, read general recommendations- nuances also affect the quality of the final result.

Many beginners think that a master class on plastic colors is extremely difficult. In fact, if you follow the technology, then there is nothing complicated in sculpting such products. Always adhere to the following rules:

• You need to sculpt only in a cool room, using as a work surface glass sheet so that the heat does not soften the clay too much.
• Flowers are not sanded, so it is better to sculpt with medical rubber gloves (tight-fitting) so as not to leave fingerprints on the clay.
• It is imperative to have a set of professional stacks, since almost all the work is done by them.
• In no case do we put unburned flowers on a work surface or any other surface - we prick them onto a support (wire, toothpick), and bake on it.
• We try to prevent dust, lint from getting on the work surface and plastic: they can be imprinted into the workpieces, and there is practically no way to remove them from there. Therefore, before making flowers from polymer clay, we vacuum the room, remove the pets and woolen clothes, and after sculpting, we immediately carry our creatives into the oven, without waiting for something to stick to them.

In addition to clay and stacks, you will need green wire - flower legs are often made from it. You can find it in a handicraft store: it is sold in reels and per meter. Choose a medium thickness: the thinnest one is not suitable, as it will bend under the weight of the flower.

Sometimes on thematic resources you come across a recommendation not to bake thin polymer clay products, but to cook them. Say, it's faster (5 minutes is enough for flowers) and more environmentally friendly (less harmful fumes). Maybe so, but cooking has one huge drawback: the boiling point plain water 100 o, saturated saline solution 110 o, and the temperature required for polymer clay hardening is 130 o. As a result, the creative almost certainly remains a little soft and too fragile. Therefore, my choice is baking, which I advise you too. It will be a shame if the magnificent bouquet is ruined at the final stage. It is advisable to cook plastic if you come across a variety with a hardening temperature of no more than 110 o. Or if you don't have an oven, but you really want to work with polymer clay.

How to cook polymer clay? Pour filtered water into a saucepan, dissolve salt in it (2 tablespoons for each liter), let it boil and wait 5 minutes. Then we set the fire to a minimum, lower the product into the brine. We hold on to the stand so that it does not touch the walls and bottom. Thin products like flowers need to be boiled for 4-5 minutes, then pulled out and cooled in cold water... The container in which the processing was carried out can no longer be used for cooking.

Master class "Flower"

What can not be done from polymer clay! The “Flower” master class is a small part of its possible application for sculpting plant motifs.

In order not to explain anything on the fingers, here is a detailed photo-guide for making different colors:

How to sculpt roses, I showed in.

These are the wonders that can be easily sculpted out of polymer clay. But the “Flower” master class is not only intended for beginners: I think it's time to introduce heavy artillery. I recommend especially impressionable ones to breathe deeper, as this is truly a masterpiece!

To make the same flowers from polymer clay, we read the master class carefully, and if you don’t understand anything, ask questions in the comments. I repeat: this branch of sakura is a work of a high degree of complexity, and beginners may not be able to sculpt subtle details the first time. Practice and learn.

You will need pink, brown and green self-hardening polymer clay, yellow acrylic dye, good glue, fishing line, wire and a real branch from a tree.

First of all, cut the fishing line into pieces about 5 cm long and burn it over the flame so that 2 cm remains with a ball at the end. We will dip these balls in yellow paint. When dry, glue the resulting stamens to the wire using superglue.

Now we start sculpting the petals - perhaps this is the most difficult stage of the work, since they should be thin-thin, almost like real ones. We pinch off a piece the size of a pea, knead it, form a long droplet, put it on the bend of the left palm. Take the stack with the other hand and roll out the workpiece. Not too subtle yet. It turns out a drop-shaped cake. Now we push through it with a toothpick slightly noticeable grooves along, and one deep at the tip, in the very center. We remove it, flatten the blunt end with our fingers a little more, and bend the sharp end in two along a deep groove, stretch it a little and turn it up. This is how the petal should look like:

Gently glue the petals onto the stems: 3-4 in a row, 3 rows in total. Now it remains to attach the sepal, and the flower will be ready. We take green polymer clay, roll it out using the "star" shape or manually cut out a five-pointed star, put it on the wire and crimp it. It is better to roll the stalk with plastic too, so that our branch looks more realistic.

In the first illustration, you can see that there are many flowers on sakura. This is not work for one evening, and not even for a week. The process is time consuming, but the result is worth it - so please be patient. About 90% of the flowers need to be made as similar as possible, and the remaining 10% - in the form of unblown buds. For buds, stamens are not needed - we just glue five petals in random order on a wire stalk.

In addition to flowers, there are leaves on the sakura branch. How to sculpt them? We make exactly the same drop-shaped blank as for the petal, also put it on the palm and roll it out in a stack - but only from the edges, leaving the middle plump. We will stick a wire into it. After that, we push through the veins with a toothpick and slightly bend the tip.

When enough flowers and leaves have gathered, we attach them to the branch, and cover the branch with a thin layer of brown plastic. You can also tint the base of the sepal with brown paint, and the buds with bright pink:

Polymer clay - unique material , with which you can create amazing sculptures, decorations, crafts and bouquets. It was invented in Germany in the 1930s for making dolls, but later in the 1960s, clay became widespread and was used to make all kinds of things.

Very popular polymer clay products are flowers and flower bouquets... You don't have to be a sculptor or have artistic super powers to learn how to sculpt flowers. It is enough to have good taste, know the basics of sculpting, be patient and practice a lot.

There are several types of clay: self-hardening and firing... For flowers and flower arrangements, the first is usually perfect. After manufacturing, after a certain time, the product will harden itself. Fired clay is usually used for products that must be very durable for example for decoration.

1) Polymer clay for beginners flowers. Polymer clay feces

These simple kala flowers are very easy to make and only take a few minutes to make. In this case, the flower is decorated with beads and attached to a hook, so the earrings are very simple but cute.

What you need:

- Clay of two colors

- Rubber gloves

- Toothpick

- Knife

- Beads and hooks-earrings

Let's get to work:

Take two small pieces of polymer clay of different colors that go together. You will need two colors to get the "marbled pattern". You can practice on clay of the same color first.

Roll each piece into long sausages.

Wrap one around the other.

Then roll into a ball.

Do this process again from the beginning. This is necessary for a marbled effect. Wrap one sausage around the other and then tear it into several pieces. After that, roll it into a ball, as shown in the photo:

Divide the ball into two equal parts with a sharp knife.

Then start sculpting the flowers. Form a flat round plate, slightly lengthen the edge. Pinch the edge with your fingers, gently wrap the other edge in the same way as paper bags are folded to make a funnel.

Spread the edges of the flower to make the bud open. Use a toothpick to make a hole for the beads and earring.

The blank for the future earring is ready. Insert the hardware and beads.

2) Modeling of flowers from polymer clay. Lily made of polymer clay

You will have to tinker a little with this flower, but if you understand the principle, everything will turn out quite simple. This master class shows how to do very tiny lily, but you can use it to make flowers of any size.

What you need:

- Clay of the same color

- Glass rolling pin or bottle

- Knife or scissors

- Needle or awl

- Watercolors and brush

- Paperclip

Let's get to work:

Take a small piece of clay, it is better if it is white or beige clay - the colors of natural flowers, but you can use any color you like.

Roll the clay into a thin sheet with a rolling pin. The thickness of the sheet in this example is 3-4 times the thickness of a regular sheet of paper. Make sure that the sheet is not too thin, as it will be difficult to work with.

Using a needle or awl, outline the shape of the petals - 6 in total, of which three are slightly larger and three are smaller. Smaller petals will be attached closer to the stamens in the product.

Then, using a fine needle, apply ribbing to each petal. Although natural lilies do not have this texture, they will look very beautiful with a polymer flower.

You should get the following petals:

In lilies, the central part of the petals is usually colored yellow and there are also brown "freckles". These details can be applied to the petals using watercolors and a brush.

Now we should work on inside flower, or rather its stamens and pistil, which are cut with a knife from the same flat sheet clay. Make the pistil a little thicker and paint the tip with brown paint.

Using an awl, fold the edges of the small petals inward. Prepare a paper clip with a straightened end. A flower will be attached to it.

Let's start collecting a flower:

3) Polymer clay for flowers. Polymer clay rose

Roses are the most popular flowers made from polymer clay. They are usually made from many individual petals that need to be prepared in advance.

Option 1 (simple)

What you need:

- Clay of the same color

-Rubber gloves

Let's get to work:

Roll a sausage out of a piece of clay, and then divide it into many parts - future petals. Form the petals different sizes as shown in the photo.

Roll the smallest petal so that you get the middle of the flower, and then attach the rest of the petals to it in turn, from the smallest to the largest.

The simplest rose is ready. It can be used for jewelry if you attach accessories to it.

Option 2 (hard)

If you are already a little more comfortable with a material such as polymer clay, you will most likely want to learn how to make more complex pieces. For this you will need Additional materials and forms that can be purchased at specialty stores or over the Internet.

Try making a more realistic rose using these tools.

What you need:

- Clay of two colors

- Rubber gloves

- A board for work

- Rolling pin for rolling out

- Forms for carving (for petals in the form of a flower)

- Mold for rose petal (optional)

- Cup mold (optional)

- Clay glue with brush

- Knife

- Green sticky tape for stalks

Let's get to work:

Take a wire for flowers about 20 centimeters long and bend one end of it to create a hook. This is the future stem of the rose. Roll a ball out of a piece of clay, and then shape it into a drop.

Stick a wire into the base of the droplet. If you have a ready-made flower mold, you can compare a drop to the size of the petals. They need to be slightly larger to wrap it up. This is the base of your bud. The color of the clay for the drop can be any; it will not be visible under the petals.

Roll out the clay into a thin sheet and, using a mold, cut out the five-pointed flower. If you don't have such a shape, make it out of cardboard and cut out the flower with a knife. Cut off 2 petals. Then, using a stack with a ball at the end, process the edges of the petals so that they become thinner. Use a petal mold as well.

Coat the base of the bud with glue and start wrapping the petals around it so that you have a closed pink bud.

Take two more petals, coat them with glue where they will come into contact with the bud, and wrap them around the bud again, not so tight.

Now prepare the triple petals. Wrap them around the bud as shown in the photo. Remember to grease them with glue. The more petals you have, the more magnificent the rose will turn out. In this case, three more triple petals were used.

Then use a full 5 petals. Flip the bud over and press down on the base of the flower.

Repeat the procedure with one more five-pointed flower. You should have a rose like this:

But that is not all. To make the flower look quite like a real one, attach 5 more lower petals to it, each of which will be attached to a wire. Secure all the stems with tape or tape, wrapping them around the bundle of wire.

To make a flower cup, take a piece of green clay. Shape into a cup and roll out the edges with a thin rolling pin. Use a mold or knife to cut out a five-pointed star. For realism, cut the edges with a knife.

Process inner side bowl with glue and glue it to the base of the flower, making a hole with the stem wire. Wrap the stalk with green tape.

4) Modeling flowers from polymer clay. Polymer clay orchid

Phaselis orchid ("butterfly") is a popular flower that is molded from polymer clay using molds. Molds are needed to create a realistic texture of the petals. if you don't have them, you can also work, but your petals will turn out smooth, without streaks and irregularities.

What you need:

- Clay

- Rubber gloves

- A board for work

- Rolling pin for rolling out

- Wire for artificial flowers

- Forms for cutting (for the core)

- Mold for petals

- Round tip stack

Modeling from polymer clay is a painstaking but exciting activity, and polymer clay flowers are just as pleasing to the eye as they are alive!

In this master class I will show you how to make a heart from roses. Usually flowers are molded from deco type clays (hearty soft, decoclay) or from “cold porcelain” type clay (modena, thai clay, luna clay, etc., there are many of them).

It is also possible to make cold porcelain at home, but keep in mind that samovar porcelain is quite capricious and often cracks when dried.

To sculpt roses, I used decoclay clay: it is light, very flexible, easily rolled out and hardly sticks to hands. It is easy and pleasant to work with her.

For this bouquet we need roses of two sizes (larger and smaller) and leaves. The base-heart is about 15 cm wide, not more, so the flowers should not be very large either (the diameter of the central roses is 6-7 centimeters).

So let's go.

We sculpt roses from polymer clay

For the first part of the work, actually sculpting flowers and leaves, we need the following tools and materials:

• clay (I used white, red, yellow and green)
• mold "rose leaf texture"
• leaf wire - I used a thin paper green sheathed wire, number 26
• PVA glue

I will omit the color mixing step. Someone sculpts from cold porcelain and uses oil paints, someone sculpts from clay type Deco, the essence is the same:

Take a large piece of white clay and add paint or a small piece of colored clay to it. And stir until the color is uniform.

The roses in this master class will not be of the same color as in the bouquet, but the principle of creation is the same.

Little rose

We make 6 balls with a diameter of a little more than a centimeter each.

Roll out one of the balls in the palm of your hand. One edge, it will be external, we try to make it thin, the other we leave thicker.

We twist it into a petal:

Petal blank in profile

This is the middle of our little rose

We put aside the middle for now and roll out the remaining 5 balls into petals. Let me remind you that we make one edge thin, the other we leave it plump.

In this photo, a handprint is visible on each petal.
In a flower, these prints will appear the natural texture of petals.

After rolling, try to lay all the petals one side up, so that later you do not get confused and all the visible parts of the petals in the flower were with or without texture - as you want and like best.

We take our middle and wrap it with the first petal. No need to try to glue the petal tightly along the entire length-width, just wrap it up and hold it, in the process of work it will stick itself.

This is how it looks from the side. The petal is just above the middle, you can see it here. It should be so.

We continue to wrap the petals. We apply each subsequent petal to the edge of the previous one. That is, we put the petals not opposite each other, but as if in a spiral, overlapping. Here's what we get after collecting all the petals:

We pinch the lower part of the flower to get such a "leg".

With one hand we continue to hold the flower by the “leg”, with the other, we carefully turn off the outer petals and make light creases on them (creases are not necessary, just for a specific composition I wanted just such, similar to living, roses made of polymer clay)

We carefully cut off the leg at the very base of the flower, this is what happened:

Making a bigger rose

We make 6 balls with a diameter of about a centimeter and 6 - about one and a half centimeters.

We make the middle as we did it for a small rose:

Roll out all the balls into petals. We still make one edge thinner, the other thicker. We get 5 smaller petals and 6 larger ones.

Use the smaller petals first. We wrap the first of them around the middle.

The second is opposite the first. We do not press the edges, we do not specifically smooth the petal.

Gathered all the smaller petals, we start working with the outer large petals.

In the process of work, you need to ensure that the outer petals are glued at the same height or slightly higher than the inner ones. When we make a "leg" and turn away the petals, they will move down a little by themselves.

For a large rose, slightly turn off the large petal at once, do not wait until the whole flower is collected.

This is how the rose looks from the side

We collect the whole flower (I turned away the petals in the process). We make the "leg" again.

Holding the "leg", we correct the petals with the other hand. Cut off the "leg", the flower is ready.

Making leaves

I mixed white and green clay, I didn't want the leaves to be dark (Decoclay has very intense and concentrated colors).

We make a ball with a diameter of about 1.5 centimeters. In the future, it will be necessary to make the balls larger and smaller so that leaves of different sizes are obtained.

We make such a sharp-nosed tear-drop:

Flatten the drop over the mold with the texture of the sheet. We try to match the center of the drop and the central core of the leaf texture. With your finger, we gently walk along the edge of the leaf and roll it out harder: the edge should not be thick.

Do not touch the base of the sheet, the place to which the cutting should be attached, let it remain a little thicker. The bases of the leaves will be hidden for us, and in thicker bases it will be easier to fix the wire.

Here is our leaflet:

We take a piece of wire, dip it in glue and glue it into the base of the leaf. How long this wire will be is up to you, it depends on the size of the bouquet and on what distance is planned between the base and the flowers. I have a wire length of 6-8 centimeters.

How to properly dry flowers and leaves

Now let the flowers and leaves dry. I use an upside-down empty candy box for this. The cells in it are rounded, thanks to this, the leaves are obtained with a natural soft bend: the clay sinks under its own weight in the shape of the cell.

Flowers are also good to dry in such a thing: the protrusions do not allow the flower to fall on its side. This is important, because if a raw flower lies on its side, it can crush itself with its weight, spoil the shape of the petals. And then all the work will go to waste.

But it is better not to dry large flowers made of polymer clay in such a package: dents may remain on the back of the flower. But I have already gone aside :)

In the way described above, we sculpt a lot of roses and a lot of leaves.

From experience: I usually lose about 30 percent more flowers than it seems during the sculpting process. I stepped on this rake several times, collecting only half or two-thirds of the bouquet, and now I just make more flowers than it seems necessary. But the quantity, of course, depends on the planned size of the bouquet.

Assembling a heart from roses

All flowers and leaves are molded, dried, we proceed to assembly.

We need the following materials and tools:

• base-oasis (better for dried flowers, it is gray, but I did not find a base for dried flowers in the shape of a heart)
• thick wire on which we will plant flowers (I had a nine)
• in a good way - wire cutters, but I don't have them, I use scissors
• tape tape
• round nose pliers
• PVA glue

Attaching a flower and leaves to a wire stem

I ended up cutting each long wire into 5 pieces. During the assembly process, it turned out that the wires were too long, so they had to be cut a little.

I always prefer to cut the wire with a small margin: cutting off the excess is easy, and if the wire turns out to be short, there is no way to fix it.

With round nose pliers we make a loop at the end of the wire.

Insert the wire into the center of the rose. Trying not to damage the central curl:

The loop should hide inside the rose,
it will keep the flower from accidentally shaking off

For some reason, the wire, simply smeared with glue and stuck into the base of the flower, does not always hold the flowers well with me. Therefore, I make such loops. They are sometimes seen in flowers, but I prefer this rather than risking that some flowers will simply fall off from a random movement. This bouquet will not be at my place, it is intended for a gift, and I want to save the recipient from unpleasant surprises in the form of "the basis separately - flowers separately."

We insert wires with loops into all roses:

We select several small roses (I got 10 pieces, I left the rest like that). Now we will be winding leaves to them. To do this, tear off or cut off a piece of tape. The length depends on how long the stems are planned to be connected. I have it 5-6 centimeters. We take a piece of tape and the ends and stretch it to the sides: this will make it sticky.

We wrap two wires with tape.

We do this with all the selected small roses. In principle, you don't need to tie the leaves to the flowers, but it's easier for me to distribute the remaining leaves more evenly later. This ten is like a reference grid.

In the process of work, I suddenly realized that I did not like the black plastic base of the heart. So I cut off a strip of felt and glued it to the plastic edge. (Instead of felt, you could have used ribbons, cloth, or rolled out a strip of clay, but I wanted to use felt because it looks a bit like moss.)

Here's what happened:

We start assembling the heart

I start with the largest flowers. Usually, I assemble at the same time in the middle and at the edges - it’s easier to make sure that the flowers are at the same height everywhere. This is important, the bouquet should not turn out to be lopsided.

We stick the flower in the middle and estimate the height of the rest of the bouquet on it. Let's see: what is the length of the wire between the flower and the base? Now we stick the rose to the very edge and slightly bend the wire down so that the rose better covers the ugly edge.

Compare the length of the wire at the bottom and the top rose, it should be about the same. If it is different, we will be guided by the lower rose: we did not work out the “wrong side” of the flowers, which means that it must be carefully hidden.

If the length of the wire of the central flower is longer than the flower at the edge, stick the upper flower deeper. If it is less than that of the flower at the edge, on the contrary, pull out the rose a little. If the length of the wire is not enough, it will have to be replaced with a longer one. If the wire is too long and it is impossible to stick it deeper, we cut it.

After we have decided on the height of the flowers, we take out these roses in turn, dip the ends of the wire in PVA glue and stick the flowers back in. We make sure that the height of the flowers determined at the last stage is preserved.

We continue to collect the bouquet. We work simultaneously with the edges and the center, carefully monitoring the height of the flowers. Do not forget to dip the wire in the glue. The less we take out-insert flowers, the better. Otherwise, the oasis can be so exhausted that the wire simply ceases to hold.

After most of the large flowers have been added, you can start adding the smaller ones. I start with those roses to which I tied the leaves. Here are collected only large flowers and roses with leaves:

Now add the remaining leaves.

We add it for a reason, but we look where we have the gaps between the colors, and put the leaves there. Perhaps, if there are too many gaps, it would be better to postpone the assembly for now and add a few colors. This is characteristic of polymer clay modeling - the completion of the details can continue throughout the entire process.

After all the holes are filled through which the wire or base can be seen, we stick the leaves just for symmetry and harmony, so that it does not happen that half a bouquet is in leaves, and half a bouquet is only flowers. We also dip wires with leaves in glue. We make sure that the bases of the leaves are hidden between the flowers and do not stick out.

How to make flowers from polymer clay (plastic modeling)

1. POLYMER CLAY FOR CRAFTING

Many needlewomen successfully use for folding flowers materials such as satin fabric and ribbons, corrugated paper, foamiran, genuine leather and even cut from plastic bottles blanks. Stunningly beautiful can be made from these materials. But recently, needlewomen have increasingly begun to use in their work such a plastic and interesting material for making flowers, as well as other crafts, such as clay. Ceramic floristry every year it becomes more and more popular and demanded. Bouquets polymer clay flowers and other crafts from the proven craftswomen they disperse "with a bang" among the connoisseurs of this man-made beauty. Plastic molding - one of the most exciting ways to spend time with children. Even completely Small child will be happy to help you in your work, rolling out plastic with your palms or squeezing all kinds of sausages out of the extruder polymer clay for folding flowers.

According to experienced craftswomen, it is impossible to make two flowers from clay, which would be absolutely similar to each other. Single plastic flowers and whole bouquets self made will always be original and unique. Therefore, such crafts, created by the hands of craftswomen, are real works applied arts and are highly regarded by people. Clay flowers can be effectively decorated Wall Clock, vase, panel , furniture and other interior objects. A bouquet with clay roses or gladioli can be chosen as a win-win accent of an interior composition. A flower arrangement made of clay as a decoration for gift wrapping looks no less impressive than decor in the form of flowers from foam or kanzash from ribbons.

Fired clay is often used to make various female accessories. - bracelets, beads, decor for hairpins or headbands on hair , brooches, handbags. And self-hardening clay is perfect as a convenient material for sculpting flowers with petals of a given shape.

Today, craftsmen are increasingly used to create crafts with their own hands. polymer clay, which is more plastic and easier to work with than natural. Polymer clay is used to make exquisite jewelry and beautiful jewelry boxes decorated with flowers. A wedding bouquets in the shape of a ball, assembled from clay flowers, they look simply amazing in the hands of a bride. Currently, the services of masters in ceramic floristry are becoming very popular. for decoration of wedding events . Flower arrangements and wedding bouquets made of polymer clay are durable and perfectly preserved in their original form for many years.

Absolutely everyone can learn how to create flowers from polymer clay with their own hands! You can quickly and easily make the simplest clay flower the first time after watching the master class with photo stages of modeling. Below you will find step by step wizard classes and video lessons for beginners.

Flowers made of polymer clay have gained particular popularity, which are used to decorate the interior (for example, vases or photo frames), when creating original jewelry, and even in. To learn how to make such flowers from polymer clay, you do not need special artistic abilities and skills, but good taste, patience and desire are required.

Clay is different - self-hardening and fired. For modeling flowers, the first is usually used. Some time after production, the flower will harden itself. Fired clay is more often used where it is necessary to obtain a super-durable product, for example, jewelry. At first glance, it looks like ordinary plasticine, but thanks to the plasticizer, which is necessarily included in its composition, under the influence high temperatures it gradually evaporates and the finished sculpture becomes solid. For novice ceramic florists, it is better to take softer varieties of clay - it is easier to process.

• Stationery knife and a special machine for rolling out clay. But this is ideally, for a start, you can get by with a rolling pin - glass or ceramic.
• Special varnish for polymer clay - matt or glossy, depending on the desired coating result.
• Several artistic brushes of different numbers.
• Toothpicks, wet wipes and jewelry accessories.

Before you start sculpting, it is very important to knead the clay well. This should be done in small pieces, gradually adding to new portions in order to get a soft, homogeneous mass, very convenient for sculpting.
