Send

Every winter, children and adults, look forward to the coming of the New Year and Christmas. Festive dinner, New Year's forest beauty decoration, mandarin aroma. On the Christmas tree, many New Year's toys will be hung. It is enough to devote a little of your time and imagination in order to invent new jewelry. Even children will be happy to take part in this lesson.
We will need:
1. Thread, for crocheting, 25 meters.
2. The balloon.
3. Glue.
4. Two pieces of satin ribbon with a width of 2.5 centimeters and a length of 15. Tape 0.5 * 15 centimeters.
5. Brocade tape 1 * 10 centimeters, 4 pieces.
6. The middle, the bead.
7. Rhinestones for decoration.
8. Glue gun.
9. Scissors.
10. Needle and thread.

Step 1
We dilute PVA glue with water to the consistency of thick sour cream. Inflate the balloon of the right size.
Step 2
Dip the threads in glue and wait a little while they are saturated. At least 10 minutes must pass.

Step 3
Gently wind the thread around the balloon, trying to close the empty spaces.

Step 4
Leave the blank for at least 12 hours in order for the glue to freeze. Periodically, we try to work by touch. The thread, when completely dry, becomes hard.
Step 5
This stage requires special care! We sharply pierce the balloon with a needle, after it bursts, we draw the remains through the holes. It’s not a big deal if the thread ball deforms a little, you can easily correct it by hand. The remnants of dried glue, remove with tweezers.

Step 6
We decorate our bow decoration. To do this, take two pieces of satin ribbon 15 centimeters long. We divide them one by one, outlining the middle in half. We turn each edge of the tape to the mark, adjusting each other 2 millimeters. We collect on a thread, tighten and wrap. We straighten the resulting bow.

From brocade tape we make ponytails. Sections of a length of 10 centimeters are added together at an angle of 25 degrees. Fasten with a thread. Using a glue gun we connect the details of the bow, glue the middle. Cut the edges of the ribbons at an angle and scorch, so that our jewelry does not open in the future.

Step 7
From a piece of tape about 5 centimeters wide (about 15 cm long), make a loop and fasten it to the ball, stretching through one of the threads, glue a bow, decorate with rhinestones or beads.
