Pliers are core tools in velvet flower making. Their main functions are fixing, shaping, and assisting in wrapping, serving as a key helper to transform loose silk threads into three-dimensional velvet flower shapes.
Specific functions of the pliers in velvet flower making:
- Fix the copper wire frame: The first step in making velvet flowers is to bend copper wire into basic frames for petals, leaves, etc. Pliers can accurately clamp both ends of the copper wire, facilitating bending and shaping while avoiding deformation or scratches caused by direct finger contact with the copper wire.
- Assist in tightening wrapped threads: When wrapping silk threads, gently clamp the end of the copper wire frame with pliers to fix the thread end and prevent loosening. This makes the wrapped threads tighter and more uniform, avoiding loosening or falling off of the velvet flower after forming.
- Trim and adjust details: Diagonal Pliers are equipped with cutting edges, which can directly trim excess copper wire or silk threads. At the same time, the plier mouth can gently squeeze and adjust the curvature of velvet flower petals to make the shape more three-dimensional and full.
