In winter, the surrounding landscape becomes monotonous: gray houses, white snowdrifts and black trees - I want to add color to the overall monochrome. For example, turn an ordinary plain item into a sparkling one!
A hat decorated with rhinestones will become a bright accent in your appearance and highlight your facial features, especially if the rhinestones are matched to the color of your eyes (cold shades for gray or warm shades for brown).
Decorate hats with rhinestones
The work begins with a sketch: you need to come up with a future pattern and transfer it to the hat. A tailor's pencil does not fit well on knitwear, so you may have to make markings with threads - the main thing is that they contrast with the color of the material and are easy to rip off (photo).
Two ways to attach rhinestones:
1. The decoration can be glued. Crystals on glue are suitable mainly for machine-made knitwear or woven material - they simply will not stick to a hat with a relief pattern. There are rhinestones on which the adhesive has already been applied; it will have to be heated with an iron or a special soldering iron.If glue is purchased separately, you need to make sure that when it dries it is transparent and does not contain acetone.
Materials for decoration with rhinestones
2. There are sew-on rhinestones on sale that have several small loops at the bottom for threading through. This option is suitable for all products. It is better to sew on decorations with transparent thread, fishing line or thread that matches the color of the hat.
Decor ideas
Two parameters that should be taken into account are shape and material. A variety of models are available, and this allows you not to limit yourself in choosing a design.
Let's figure it out How to beautifully decorate hats with rhinestones with your own hands.
Knitted hats
Rhinestones are sewn onto voluminous figured knitting (for example, braids). A scattering of small sparkles will be lost in the lines of the ornament - it is better to choose large ones (in stores they are marked as XXL). Crystals are combined with colored beads or shiny threads - this is how, for example, a floral ornament is created.
The pattern does not have to be symmetrical, especially if the hat is worn on one side. Unevenly distributed color spots or a gradient arrangement of decorations look stylish - a cluster of details in one place, scattering towards the center (here it is appropriate to use rhinestones of several sizes: large in the center, small on the sides).
Important! You should not expect that a miniature ornament that requires clear lines will hold its shape well on knitwear. A knitted hat stretches, and when creating a sketch, it is better to take into account that the rhinestones will move slightly when worn. In part, an abstract or simply large pattern would be better suited for this knitwear.
When decorating a hat made of thin knitwear with small loops, all these tips are also appropriate, but you can take smaller rhinestones, especially for a tight-fitting product.When attaching, it is convenient to stretch the fabric on the hoop and, if glue is used, leave it in it until it dries.
Caps and berets
Rhinestone chains look impressive on hats made of thick textiles. This metal ribbon is curled into a spiral in the center of the beret or sewn on the side.
On a dark headdress with solid details (for example, a cap) there may be a small neat composition of small crystals or a thin line along the crown.
An original solution is a black winter cap with a shiny visor: it can be tightly embroidered with uncut medium-sized rhinestones.
Beanie
A stocking cap is usually sewn from jersey or knitted, so thin, strict lines are unlikely to suit her. But waves along the entire length of the cap and horizontal stripes across the forehead look good.
If the beanie has a lapel, it will be gracefully highlighted by a flower embroidered with stones (which is best placed on the side). The rhinestone chain will come in handy again - you can run it around the circumference of the lapel, hiding the place where the ends meet at the back.
Of course These are all just general recommendations. The most interesting compositions are obtained by mixing styles and design techniques, and the best way to highlight the individuality of the hostess is the design that she comes up with herself.
