The basic materials for making paper bouquets—twist sticks, hair roots, and plush strips
In the production of Origami Rose bouquets, a magical thing is used, which is the twist stick (also known as hair stem, plush strip, plush strip, Chenille stem). Whats unique about it is that it can be twisted at will, and after the twisting is completed, they will maintain their continuous shape without restoring their appearance. This is because the twist bar (hair root, plush strip, plush strip) is composed of two iron wires and fluff, so although the appearance looks very soft, when you twist it casually, it can always maintain your shape. The appearance after twisting will not restore. This makes it a very good paper art bouquet styling and decoration item.
The original use of the twist bar was directly for DIY shaping. Therefore, there is also a type of hand-made DIY production that is completed individually by twisting the rod. Since the twist stick itself can be deformed at will, the small animal images or other images made with the twist stick are very vivid and cute. This is why the handmade DIY production of twist sticks has become a very popular project in the handmade DIY production family. However, when the twisting stick and paper art were combined, people discovered that the twisting stick can also bring more imagination space to paper art production. Especially in the production of origami flowers bouquets, the role of the twist stick becomes more prominent, allowing the individual paper flowers we make to be finally gathered into a bouquet.
The twist stick itself is not static either. In order to meet everyones various manual DIY production requirements, the twist bar also has many corresponding models, and the model is mainly based on the diameter of the twist bar.To judge. The diameter of the twist bar is judged by the length of the plush. For example, if you are making a DIY twisting stick alone, you can choose a twisting stick with longer plush, and the resulting work will often look plumper. But if it is to assist other handicrafts, for example, we need to make a paper bouquet for Mothers Day, then the twisting stick should be slightly thinner in diameter, because the twisting stick itself is just a In order to fix the role of paper art bouquets, they cannot overwhelm them.
Another highlight of the twist stick is its color. The colors of twist sticks available on the market now are very rich, covering almost all the colors that can be encountered in daily handmade DIY. This also reminds us that when making handmade paper crafts, try to match the appropriate color of the twist stick according to your own work. Only in this way can the work be presented in the most perfect way without making the work look nondescript. This is equally important in other productions.
