Templates for felt brooches. Schemes and templates of original DIY felt crafts

Good afternoon, we continue our series of articles dedicated to lightning jewelry. We've already made different ones ourselves beautiful jewelry... We sorted out as many as 29 bracelets made from lightning in the article. We saw how much space for sets (necklace + earrings) can be made from lightning in the article. And today we will make brooches. Also made of felt and zipper teeth. We will also make brooches rolled from zipper tape. A package of fashionable, stylish DIY jewelry awaits you. You can do this at home; you don’t need any special tools or equipment - just your hands and a needle and thread.

So let's get started and see what beautiful pictures I found it for you.

FIGURED BROOCH made of lightning – on a felt base.

Such brooches are made by connecting a jagged zipper strip and pieces of felt. A zipper is sewn onto the felt - with the necessary bends. The excess edges of the felt are cut off.

Here is a brooch in the shape of a dove - made according to a similar principle on paper quilling technique(remember where appliqués are made from rolled strips of paper - it’s the same here, but from strips of toothed tape, cut off by lightning.

I really like the zipper and felt brooch in the form of a peacock. Very sophisticated. Here the brooch is made from individual pieces of felt covered with the jagged part cut from the zipper.

Or it could be beautiful peacock feather made like a brooch made of felt and lightning. Such a feather will decorate the lens and beads (you can use felt balls instead of beads).

You can also make a brooch in the shape of a bird... cute bird with paws and beak...Or a bird perched on a green bush or on a blue cloud.

And of course owls- This is a separate topic and very popular for jewelry and especially brooches.

Can be made from zipper and felt silhouettes of insects. Such brooches can be in the form of dragonflies, bright butterflies, and even snails.

PLANT THEME – in brooches made of zipper and felt.

It could be plant theme– herbs and flowers... also made of felt and zippers. Such brooches are made entirely based on your imagination. You can draw first any plant theme - and or look for ideas in online pictures... whimsical tropical leaves, curved orchid petals, graceful leaves of creeping ivy... or the curves of underwater algae.

This is how you can make a brooch from a lightning bolt in the shape of LILY OF THE VALIES. Flowers are white lumps rolled from felt - using the felting method.

That is, we take a piece of felt - dip it in a soapy solution (water + soap) and roll it into a ball on your hand, forming a tight and round lump with your fingers... and, if necessary, adding a little more felt to it... achieving the right size ball.

And then, after drying, we get round lumps of felt - which can be inserted into our zipper brooch in the form of a lily of the valley.

It could be a rose...

HOW TO MAKE A ROSE from felt and zippers...

Single color rose it's easy to do -

1. A circle of red felt - cut into a spiral... let the spiral be uneven, asymmetrical...
2. And then we sew the jagged part of the zipper along the entire cut...

1. And after that we sew up the incision... close the spiral and return it to the circle as it was before the incision. Only now we have lightning at the site of the cut...

Two-color rose easy to do too. This is when we replace part of the spiral with the same part only of a different color. That is, we start the same way...

1. We take a beard circle made of felt and cut it into a spiral (a cut in the shape of a snail).
2. And then we cut off the central piece of the spiral.
3. This cut piece will serve as a template for us - we place it on pink felt - and cut out exactly the same circle with exactly the same spiral cut.
4. Now we insert this pink piece of spiral into the burgundy spiral - since it is cut according to the template, it will be exactly in the place of the old one. Let's grab it with threads and sew it to the burgundy spiral.
5. And now along the entire spiral cut - to its edge - we sew the jagged part of the zipper (that is, a narrow strip of teeth cut from the zipper).

You can make a fantasy flower that does not exist in nature from lightning and felt...

These brooches can be made as large as you like...

You can add stems and petals... until your brooch turn into a whole necklace...

Or you can make the flower first then you realize that this is no longer a brooch... that this is already an idea for the bracelet - that the flower petals themselves bend into a semicircle. And oh - how beautiful it looks on the wrist... especially if you paint your nails with exactly the same polish...

And this is what often happens - you sit down to make a brooch - and in the end you get so carried away that you don’t notice - that it’s no longer a brooch... but almost a hat... and you can add a veil here on the side - and even go to a buffet reception at the English embassy .

TOY BROOCHES – made of zipper and felt.

And your brooch made of lightning and felt can turn into characters from fairy tales... your children will want to play with such brooches - like with dolls.

You can make creatures dear to your heart... Even cockroaches, snakes and other amphibians...

ETHNIC MOTIVES – like the design of a felt and zipper brooch.

You can get inspired enitic patterns different primitive tribes... Or Mexican theme… or Brazilian painted plates...You can just make up something from your own personal experience... You can delve into yours children's drawings and choose cute little scribbler from there... then the decoration will actually make sense... like greetings from a distant, bright childhood.

You can also make a brooch prefabricated– from lightning, from pieces of leather, from feathers and beads.

You can take a metal zipper with bright iron teeth and add to it nuts, bolts, gears of all sorts from watches... pieces of microcircuits. And you will get a brooch in TECHNO style...

In short, fantasize and create what you want.

You can also make brooches - WITHOUT adding felt - just from lightning...

Lightning brooches – ROLLED.

You can fold the brooch from pieces of lightning– how they are made HEARTS made from lightning in the photo below.

1. Roll up one half of the zipper.
2. And we cut the second half of the zipper into two parts - and wrap them around the roll on both sides - forming a heart shape.
3. We sew the cut ends of the parts at the bottom of the heart.

Or you can make a ROSE - just from a twisted lightning bolt

Maybe the zipper itself twist - dodge and secure with threads to form a bud of a blossoming rose. And decorate small pieces of green lightning like peeking leaves.

You can turn the zipper so that it only partially reminds you of delicate petals... (like in a black brooch). Or roll a few rolls of zippers into delicate inflorescences of buds that are just opening (like the milky beige brooch in the photo below).

I will tell you more about how to make roses, daffodils and other flowers from lightning... IN THE CONTINUATION... in a special article “Jewelry made from lightning. Part 4 – flowers and roses with your own hands.”

There you will see a lot of interesting things...

Good luck with your creativity.

Olga Klishevskaya, especially for the site.

Retro motifs are gradually returning to our everyday lives. A variety of brooches, beads, necklaces, made with their own hands, are now worn by fashionistas in everyday life, and not just at social parties. A felt brooch is quite easy to make and you don’t need to be a craftsman. This will require a minimum of costs, both financial and time. You can safely give such a thing as a gift to a loved one.

Where to start?

Heart pattern. The easiest example for learning how to edit a lightning bolt is a heart. To understand how to make a brooch in the shape of a heart edged with a zipper, you will need an already cut piece.

1. Roll half the zipper like a master.
2. Cut the second part of the zipper and wrap the first roll on both sides so that the shape resembles a heart.
3. Carefully trim the cut flaps and sew them at the bottom.

The result is an original handmade heart.

Plant theme

One-color rose - brooches made of felt and zippers, the production of which will take from 15 to 30 minutes according to the master class.

1. You will need patterns in the form of circles of scarlet felt - cut out in a symmetrical spiral.
2. An ordinary zipper is sewn through the entire incision, depending on the size of the felt.
3. The incision is carefully sutured, close the circle in the form of a spiral with a return. It turns out to be a cut flower, but with a zipper on the cuts.

It’s also easy to make the same, but multi-colored brooch patterns with your own hands, if you understand the essence. Several parts of the spiral, but different colors. The technique is practically the same.

1. Take, for example, a raspberry circle - cut it in the shape of a snail.
2. Cut a piece in the center.
3. Place the template that was cut out, for example, on blue felt, then cut out the same snail.
4. Insert a blue circle into the raspberry spiral - if you cut it according to finished pattern, then you get the same size. Sew to the raspberry piece with thread.
5. Now sew along the entire cut, as in the first master class, with a zipper.

A beautiful, bright rose, made by yourself, is ready. You can change colors. Or you can make brooches from felt with patterns that will differ in shape, then you will get not a rose, but a fictitious flower. It is very profitable to make elegant felt brooches with your own hands, since the plant theme in jewelry is quite flexible. You can follow the master class one small brooch, then two. Skills are developed, which allows in the future to create entire sets of felt and zippers.

Felt horse

More complex animal themes. To create a regular brooch in the shape of a horse's head you will need:

1. Make a pattern in the shape of a horse’s head with your own hands or the hands of your children, cut it out and transfer it to felt. Do this in separate pieces of different colors.
2. Cut out these colors, overlapping each other (for example, white on black), the same with the muzzle.
3. The neck part also needs to be basted with floss threads. The horse should turn out to be two-color. Also make a mouth with threads and eyes with beads.
4. The plastic is needed to attach the pin to.
5. Carefully attach the plastic to the back of the horse using special glue. You should be very careful at this stage, as excess glue can ruin the delicate fabric. When the glue dries, sew a pin to the felt and plastic part for more securement.
6. Next, you can make a border of beads or zippers.

The size of such a product may depend only on your capabilities. First, it is best to practice on a smaller scale, so that later you can apply petal by petal without straining your hands and get a whole necklace. If you need a master class, write in the comments.

Ethnic theme in brooches

Absolutely any ideas that can be taken from fairy tales, the animal world, national and cultural characteristics are suitable for making felt jewelry. Patterns ancient Greece or luxurious embroidery national traditions. You can add extra details to the brooch, create original jewelry, can be placed in one gift different fabrics, colorful lightning and bright colors.

For more experienced people, a fairy tale theme is suitable. You can come up with a lot of cute brooches made of zippers and felt, attaching additional details with your own hands: beads, ribbons, embroidery. All this can be combined in an animal or a fictional character. You can also try the techno style, this is lightning with the addition of mechanical structures: nuts, gears, microcircuits.

Only for all this variety you will need experience in creating felt brooches. The master class will help with this. The main thing is not to give up if something doesn’t work out. Let your imagination run wild. Good luck with your creations!

It's very easy to do and looks great. Take a pattern and cut out the petals using it. It is advisable to leave free space in the center. Cover the blanks with matching threads to make the product look neater. A button is sewn in the center. The base is glued on the back, to which the base for the brooch is then sewn. That's the whole trick. The field for creativity is huge.

Instead of the base, you can use a regular pin, just sew one leg to the base.

• Needle.
• Beads or a beautiful button.

Felt is taken in small pieces - you can use different colors. Cut out the required amount according to the pattern. A cut is made in the petals so that the brooch eventually acquires a convex shape.

We thread the needle and sew up the longitudinal cuts. The flowers have become voluminous.

Attach a button or bead in the center. A round base is sewn from the bottom, covering the back. We fasten the clasp. The felt brooch is ready. We wear it with pride and pleasure.

Small master classes will help you make an equally beautiful brooch, or become the basis for your own idea.

The basis for this beautiful dahlia is also felt. Undoubtedly, this brooch will attract attention, and it is easy to make.

Most of the time will be spent making the petals. To make them curled, you need to fix the edges until the glue dries. Otherwise, the material will take its original shape.

Then the petals should be planted in rows on the base.

On the reverse side there is a pocket to carry a photo of your child or loved ones.

Patterns greatly facilitate the work of those who want to get a specific result in the shortest possible time.

Photos of other people's work often inspire creativity. Many brooches can be made together with children, because this is a very simple and pleasant material to work with.

Learn how to make various beautiful felt brooches with your own hands

A few words about the material. Felt is sold in A4 sheets, often in sewing kits, and comes in a variety of thicknesses. To work with flat brooches, it is recommended to choose thicker material, because working with it is easier. However, if for some reason you have a sheet with insufficient thickness, you can always increase it by using two layers instead of one.

The assortment also includes natural and synthetic felt. The first one is better to choose when making voluminous parts, as it packs better and looks more voluminous. The second one is great for appliqués and flat products.

A huge advantage of the material is its wide color palette, evidence of which is shown in the photo:

To make it you will need:

• pieces of felt with colors typical of a T-shirt - red and green;
• threads of similar colors;
• needle;
• black beads or seed beads;
• fastening for eyebrows or pins;
• glue;
• paper, pencil;
• scissors.

Patterns for brooches:

The master class itself on making a brooch in the shape of a poppy:

1. First of all, draw the part templates on paper and cut them out.
2. The poppy petal pattern is applied to the red felt and carefully cut in four times.
3. Two leaves are prepared from green felt.
4. It is necessary to make a recess with petals the size of a centimeter.
5. Next, the petals overlap each other and collide in the center.
6. The product must be allowed to dry a little.
7. The center of the future brooch is declared with beads to imitate an inflorescence
8. The green leaves are glued together with a slight overlap.
9. The flower is combined with the leaves using glue.
10. If the brooch is planned to be removable, a clasp is attached to it. Otherwise, the product is sewn to the selected item of clothing.

An excellent option for decorating any sweater or outerwear will be a large brooch in the shape of a snail, made of felt and lightning. A nice addition is that you can use something that has been lying around in the bins for a long time. After all, the main element used in a zipper is the teeth, so it doesn’t matter at all what color the material of the fastener itself is or what the edges look like – you have to get rid of everything.

You will need:

• felt in two colors - purple (won) and crimson (decor);
• fastener in the form of a zipper with bronze-colored teeth 30 centimeters long;
• purple threads (to match the color of the base) and contrasting orange (for decoration);
• a small yellow bead and green beads;
• brooch base or pin;
• needle, scissors.

Don’t worry if you don’t find elements of the specified colors, because you can always replace them to suit your taste and style. Also, if the lightning bolt at your disposal is not the size required, you can adjust the size of the brooch by increasing or decreasing it.

To make a brooch, it is necessary to divide the zipper, since only one part of it will be required. To do this, cut the clasp at the base and choose the nicer half. If there is a lock on it, remove it. All excess fabric must be cut off to create a zipper thread.

We cut out the base from felt in the shape of the future brooch and outline a pattern according to which we will subsequently sew a zipper. For this, it is good to use special chalk, soap and even ordinary felt-tip pens - after all, the decor used is voluminous enough to cover all the contours. If you are not sure that you can immediately mark the lines correctly, it is recommended that you first attach the prepared zipper to determine the required length of the outline.

When preparatory stages finished, proceed to the main thing - sewing on the zipper. To do this, apply a chain of zippers, starting from the center, and place neat stitches between each tooth. To give the product volume, try changing the direction of the teeth. For example, in the center of a brooch, sew a chain perpendicular to the surface, continue laying it, tilting it slightly, and finish the edge by placing the zipper on its side. Don't be afraid to experiment, because this chain looks great even on small and steep curls.

Now let's start decorating. To do this, put the brooch aside and take felt of a different color. It is necessary to cut out several thin parts of short length from it. They need to decorate the shell of our snail. You can sew on with contrasting threads, this will add a separate effect.

Snails need eyes. Take a needle and thread, form a knot at the tip and bring the needle from the inside out to the face in the place where the eye is planned. Thread the thread through the bead, then through the beads, back into the bead and onto the wrong side. Fasten the thread carefully.

Now attach the clasp and the brooch is at your disposal.

We tried to select master classes on sewing felt brooches for every taste and age. If you don’t find what you were looking for, just study the technology for creating this decoration, and then take a stencil and tailor the master class to suit you.

Hedgehog

This cute homemade felt brooch will look appropriate on both a little girl and adult girl(with the appropriate image). It will take you literally 10-15 minutes to make jewelry at home.

We will need:

• felt in two or three colors;
• thick thread for sewing;
• cotton wool or synthetic winterizer;
• bead and any decor;
• accessories for brooches;
• superglue.

Felt can be different, and for this brooch it is better to choose one that is not too soft, so that it is easier for you to sew, and the finished craft holds its shape better.

On a piece of felt of the main color of the brooch (these will be the hedgehog's needles), draw a silhouette - as shown in the photo. Cut out two blanks of the same size. From felt of a different color, cut out the body of a hedgehog and sew on a beaded nose, and then embroider the eyes. If you have felt in another color, use it to make hedgehog feet. It is better to place them on glue, and then add “claws” in the form of threads.

We sew the blanks together, placing a small piece of soft padding inside. We sew along the front side, trying to make the stitches the same. Then we sew the two main blanks of the future hedgehog brooch together - we make the stitches the same again, we sew along the outer edge.

We attach the fittings to the inside of the brooch. If you don't have one, sew on a regular small pin.

The felt hedgehog brooch is ready - all that remains is to add a little decor (you can make it again from felt). Jewelry made in one piece looks very beautiful. color scheme or contrasting colors. By the way, instead of needles you can sew long ears and make a hare, not a hedgehog - the technology will be the same.

Fox

This felt brooch in the shape of a fox will appeal to little girls and older girls. This decoration can be worn on a blouse or a plain cardigan, or attached to a bag or backpack. Sewing such a brooch with your own hands is quite simple, and you can use leftover felt from other crafts as the main material.

We will need:

• small pieces of light felt;
• scraps of fabric in bright colors;
• floss;
• accessories for brooches.

If you do not have a suitable piece of felt for the base, and you do not know how to make a blank, replace the felt with a regular cotton pad. In this case, this is acceptable.

From fabric you need to make a blank for the fox’s head (semicircle white), ears and nose (red or ginger), dress (to your taste). First we sew the dress, then the head, to the round or oval felt blank for the brooch. Next we sew on the ears and nose.

Using thin floss threads, we make embroidery: eyes, tip of the nose and any decoration for the dress to your liking. To make the brooch look neat and complete, on the remaining edges of the felt we embroider with any floss thread suitable color- just regular stitches.

At the back, we sew or glue the brooch fittings to another piece of felt (or a cotton pad). Then we sew the main and back parts together (at this stage you can add a little sealant made of cotton wool or padding polyester) and finish the edge with embroidery.

The felt fox brooch is ready! Please note that you can create a decoration with any animal in the same way - you just need to change the shape of the head.

• scraps of colored felt;
• floss threads to match the flaps;
• cotton wool;
• small pins.

The master class in this case is elementary. First, cut the felt into squares of the same size (depending on the desired size of the brooch). Then we cut out the hearts using stencils or ourselves. You can cut the felt very beautifully using fluted scissors to make the edges of the brooch curly.

We sew two pieces together, put a little cotton wool inside. We make the seam along the edge with neat stitches. All that remains is to sew on a pin - the heart brooch is ready!

We advise you to make several brooches at once, so you can cut the felt at once and not waste time on it. By the way, such jewelry can be used not only as brooches, but also as a basis for creating hairpins, elastic bands and other accessories.

Flower

A lush flower is perhaps the most popular felt brooch, as it can be worn by women and girls of any age. This homemade decoration It will look appropriate on a little girl, her mother or sister, and even her grandmother. The main thing is to choose the right color.

We will need:

• felt in three colors;
• rivet;
• accessories for brooches;
• superglue.

From white felt (pictured) we cut out two equal-sized circles of small diameter. From the felt that we will use for the flower petals, we cut out small trapezoids. We will also prepare a small strip of felt to make a neat fringe around the core - for this we will make neat cuts along its entire length.

We cover the rivets with white felt, with the help of which we will then fix the accessories for the brooch. Then we trim the “core” of the flower with fringe along the entire contour. Next, we cut the petals a little and paste them over the brooch blank on all sides. Add one or two more layers of petals to make the decoration look more voluminous.

Glue the green petals and secure the fittings with a rivet. Our chic homemade felt flower brooch is ready! Add it to your outfit to brighten up your look.
