To make a topiary, you will need:
- organza red and green;
- foam ball;
- thin wire;
- white beads;
- toothpicks:
- wand;
- white tape;
- gypsum;
- a pot;
- green sisal;
- silicone gun and glue to it;
- scissors.
To begin with, you need to cut cubes with organza 3x3 cm in size.
Then, to the toothpicks, with the help of silicone glue, attach white beads.
Now you can start making fluffy triangles. To do this, you need to fold the square with the organza in half, then again in half. A small triangle should come out (as in the photo).
It should be attached to a toothpick using a wire.
The number of such triangles is almost impossible to calculate, since it depends on the density of their location. Therefore, you should look along the way.
For this topiary, 1.5 meters of organza went, 0.5 meters wide.
The next step is to insert the triangles into the foam ball. This must be done so that there is no white gaps.
To color the topiary a little, you can attach a white bead to the top of the toothpick. But for this, you need to attach the triangle a little lower so that the top of the toothpick is visible. Such triangles with beads should be evenly distributed over the product.
The bottom of the ball can be decorated with the same green triangles. When there is a small clearance, you can fix the topiary base with silicone glue on which it will hold.
Making it is very simple. You can use any straight stick or 5 simple skewers glued together. To make them look presentable, you need to wrap them with a white ribbon of any thickness. In this case, a tape with a width of 0.5 cm was used.
When the silicone adhesive dries, all openings should be closed with triangles.
Now it remains to "plant" him. For this, you can use any pot or other suitable container. It is necessary to crush polystyrene into it.
This is done so that the gypsum does not allow the pot to burst. Now you can pour gypsum diluted with water and fix the topiary in it.
You can decorate the pot with everything that you have. It is best to use green sisal, and decorate with white beads on top, which must be fixed with silicone glue.
That's all, the original and bright topiary is ready.
