Russian kokoshnik of cardboard - step by step instruction

First we need to create a pattern or drawingour future product. To do this, we need to take a sheet of cardboard, compasses, ruler and a simple pencil. Stages of making patterns in all the details are shown in the video.

It turns out here is such a detail.

Next, take the scissors and begin to cut the resulting workpiece along the red lines. As a result, you should get here such a detail.

We proceed to drawing the picture. For Russian costumes and headdresses, a floral ornament is characteristic, which is why we used it for our kokoshnik.

After drawing the picture, the workpiece can already beto decorate. For this we take gouache and sponge. Gouache is mixed to get the desired shade and diluted with water, then we apply the resulting paint with a sponge. In the end, this is the background for the kokoshnik.

Next, you need to draw our drawing. To do this, we take a brush and white paint. Gently apply the paint on the contour. In the end, you get this picture.

For greater expressiveness, you can add strokes of yellow paint to the floral ornament.

Important! Each new paint color should be applied only after the previous layer has completely dried.

Long ago, Russian beauties adorned the kokoshnik with precious stones, beads, pearls, gold threads. These materials are quite expensive, so we suggest using rhinestones for our kokoshnik.

In order for the kokoshnik to be fixed on the head, we attach to it a satin ribbon (approximately 1 m of tape on each side). The tape can be fastened with glue or a stapler.
