• a synthetic winterizer is placed in the fabric, and a cardboard circle is applied on top;
• by connecting the parts (you can additionally glue the fabric to the cardboard) by hand, fix the product around the cardboard frame;
• decorate the needle with beads, beads, thin braid.

A variation on the theme of a round needle, will be “pokkov” or “flowers”.

If desired, you can create hats of different styles: delicate and aristocratic or modern and sports. There are a great many options, in fact. The main thing in this matter is to show imagination and realize the plan.

Do -it -yourself needles from a can

Many needlewomen, in the manufacture of needles, use improvised means such as banks. Bars choose whole, small, if possible - beautiful. But ordinary small jars of mustard or baby food are also suitable. The main thing is to skillfully decorate the container and turn it into an “assistant for a seamstress”. What is the convenience of such needles?

And the fact that the jar, in addition to the pillows for needles, also serves as a place of storage for small buttons or beads. Thus, the double task of the product is performed: practicality and beautiful appearance.

Consider a detailed master of making a needle from a can with your own hands.

You will need a jar with a lid, a dense fabric for a pillow, decorative elements (linen tape, lace, paper flowers, silk ribbon), syntepuh, glue, cardboard.

• A jar of a lid of the desired size, wash and dry.
• Prepare a pillow-end of the cover to decorate the lid.
• To do this, cut a circle of fabric (twice the larger diameter of the lid) and a cardboard circle (equal to the diameter of the lid).
• Put a little syntephus or synthetic winterizer and a circle of cardboard for strong fixation (detailed instruction is given in the description of the manufacture of a round needle).
• Firmly tighten the stitches and fix the fabric around the cardboard circle, while pressing syntepuh.

• Glue the finished pillow to the can of the jar (you can slightly skip the surface for a dense fit).
• Decorating with braid and ribbons a jar using special glue.
