Operating procedureone. Take two pieces of wire of 30 cm, put them together and twist along the entire length. Increase the above pattern and give the wire the shape of a dragonfly wing, leaving the ends 4 cm long. Glue the wire base onto the organza using MomentCrystal glue. Cut off excess fabric. Apply PVA glue to the edge of the wing and sprinkle with large glitter.2. Put the wing on the template and gently apply decorative glue to the fabric, repeating the pattern on the template. 3. Sprinkle the pattern on the wing with fine glitter until the glue is dry. Using MomentCrystal glue, attach rhinestones to the wing. Make the remaining 3 wings. Take a 40 cm long wire and put on it 2 small beads, leaving one end of the wire 15 cm shorter than the other, so that you can pass the long end of the wire through the beads a second time. Twist each bead.five. Put a large bead on both ends of the wire and pass the long end of the wire into it again. In the same way, dial another 6 beads by passing twice through each long end of the wire. Teardrop bead complete the manufacture of the body of a dragonfly - run the ends of the wire through the hole crosswise, twist them and cut off the excess. Attach the wings to the body in pairs, twisting the wire so that the 1st and 2nd pairs of legs are obtained from the dragonfly. Cut the excess wire to get the legs of the same length. With the help of “Moment-Crystal” glue, fasten oval beads on the ends of the legs. From a length of wire 30–40 cm, make a loop for hanging, wrapping around the ends of the wire at the base of the wings, by the way, this will give additional rigidity to the product.
