STEP-BY-STEP DIY TULLE FLOWERS INSTRUCTION
Step 1
Make the stencil first by hand drawing a rose petal shape on a card and then cut it out.
Retrace the shape several times onto a larger sheet of paper to help create a full flower shape and even pattern.
Cut out the pattern.
Step 2
Take some material and fold it into a square slightly bigger than your flower pattern.
Pin the pattern to the folded material, then carefully cut around.
Repeat the process until you end up with enough tulle and chiffon layers to make a full flower.
In this example, 26 layers of material are used, however, the number of layers you use will vary on the weight of your fabric and the size of your flower.
Step 3
Place the cutout flower shapes on top of each other.
Stagger the alignment of the petals and alternate the different materials.
Use your needle and thread to secure the flower together in the centre.
Step 4
To create volume, pinch the centre of the flower together (from underneath) and secure it with a few stitches.
This will give the flower volume and a realistic shape.
Step 5
For a more glamorous wedding look, you can sew decorative beads into the centre of the flower.
This little detail makes it perfect and almost complete.
Step 6
Lastly, sew the flower securely to a hair comb or clip.
Alternatively, you can tie the flower to a corsage or sash, by sewing one or more flowers to a length of silk ribbon.
