Panel of flowers in interior design

A wall panel, also made by hand, can transform the interior beyond recognition. There are many varieties of this kind of products, for example: wooden, made from wine corks, from cold porcelain, from dried flowers and branches, using decoupage technique, quilling and many other options.

Wall panels are used if different styles are combined when decorating the interior, if you need to focus on some details in the design, zone the room, hide defects on the wall surface, or just to make the room cozy at home.

It is necessary to take into account what style interior you plan to decorate with the help of the panel. Also important the color scheme of the room. If the interior is dominated by blue tones, and the panel is sustained in yellow, you need to have a great artistic taste so that the result looks the way it should be. But blue and white products, for example, will look great in a nautical-style interior.

If your choice is a panel of flowers, this means that you are striving not only to decorate your home, but also to do it in the most environmentally friendly way... Flowers can be either natural (most likely in dried form, although fresh ones can also be used), or made of paper, painted, created using applique, embroidery, collage, decoupage, or in any other style that is close to you.

You can also find there many master classes on how to make a panel in one technique or another on your own. And if you follow the advice of experienced craftsmen, then even a complex product can turn out.

The advantage of hand-made products is that they contain the energy of the person who created them, they are unique and have no analogues, because even when working on the same master class, different people will get different results.

Before starting the design of the panel, you need to decide what colors will you work with... These can be natural or artificial flowers, dried flowers, flowers made of ribbons or paper, as well as knitted or made from natural materials. This list is far from complete, because experienced craftsmen can use any available material: from cotton pads and plastic dishes to salt dough, kinetic clay, scraps of material and much more.

It's equally important to decide what background will you work with... It should be in harmony in color with the rest of the room decor (and especially with the walls) and at the same time set off the composition that you create on it.

The simplest solution is to use artificial flowers to create the panel. This is the option that is advised to all beginners. First you need to choose an idea for the future product, then get to work. From flowers, you can create both the most obvious (a bouquet or a bush), and much more complex compositions (lay out some animal, landscape or abstract picture with flowers).

Whatever you choose, it is very important that all components are in harmony with each other, folding into one common system. In addition to colors, you need a base, that is, the future background of the product.It can be a sheet of plywood or thick cardboard, whatman paper or even fabric. And, of course, the background needs to be fixed on something so that the composition retains its original shape, you may need a frame to give your panel the look of a real work of art. Consumables such as glue or glue gun, pins, pencils, and more are also needed. As for the question of whether to place the result of their labors under glass, everyone answers it independently.

If you choose natural flowers for your panel, this can turn out to be a very delicate composition, but its beauty will be short-lived.... To prolong the life of the panel, you can use the following technique: take a small container and attach it to the background. Then you can pour water into it and change the bouquets of flowers.

Fern - an excellent material for creating a "jungle" or "rainforest" on the panel. A very summer and fresh option is to collect wildflowers and make a composition out of them. If you think over the fastening and make it simple, then the flowers can be changed as they wilt and put fresh instead of them.

You can also use indoor flowers to create a panel, but you need to decide how they will be fed. - a container (pallet, pot, bowl) with earth will be an excellent way out. Working with such delicate and fragile material as fresh flowers, it is necessary to constantly keep water nearby, spray them, and be careful. You can decorate the finished panel with beads, sequins, sparkles and much more.

Paper flowers Is another way to create a real masterpiece, and it certainly won't be short-lived. Working in the quilling technique will require a lot of time and effort from a person, as well as thoroughness and attention to detail, because many strips of paper twisted in a spiral are used to create figures there. You can also make voluminous flowers from corrugated paper, this flower panel will be large, bright, attracting attention.

For those craftswomen who are fluent in crocheting and knitting needles, it will not be difficult to create a work from knitted elements, including flowers. Products from carefully matched pieces of fabric look spectacular - it can be like patchwork technique and applique.

The works performed by on wooden boards. It can be a painting, applique, burning, or a combination of all of the above.

Before you drill holes in the wall to hang your piece, you need to make sure it will look good there. The method of fastening depends on two factors: how heavy and voluminous the decorative panel is, and the material from which the wall is made. If the wall and the weight of the panel allow, then you can fix it on several pieces of double-sided construction tape. If this is not possible, you will have to come up with a fixing of the product to the wall in such a way that it does not collapse at the most inopportune moment. It is best to carefully drive in one or two nails, and securely attach a hook or loop to the frame of the panel in order to hang the work on the wall.
