How to create a basket of toys

basket of toys 1

I want to share with you the ideas of creating a good and original things for baby (and not only).
How often said my son, “Mom, make me something for the interior.”
So start with magic. For this basket, we need to: 1) material (fabric) -You can choose any, even improvised, but many, 4 meters and a width of 1.5. but you can do other, for example, I used the blue basket on terry sheets, a width of 2 * 2m and part of the blanket cover for the master class, I found fleece, very comfortable material – edges are not Mohr, dense, elastic and soft material! I recommend! 2) Eyelets 4 pieces and sets.ustroystvo for fixing them (usually sold complete them) 3) hammer for fastening eyelets 4) denim thread, scissors, a needle and pin 2. 5) patience Cart was made by me earlier, so the picture is different cloth color.
Make a detailed picture of what you tell.
Manufacturing process simple, only need to be patient) Getting cast)) 1) Material cut long strips the width of 10-15 cm. I was cutting about width 10cm, and gently stretching the resultant strip to the edge wrapped inside. If you want to cut all the material at once, and you have it long, then wound onto each strip in a separate tangle , for the convenience of further weaving.
2) further weave ordinary long braid of three strips, weave tight and at the end of anchoring pin to spit remained tight . Woven one long braid, sew the ends to her following the fabric strip and continue to weave in a tight braid) To further cross-linking of the basket, too long braid (right of all material) weave is not necessary because it can interfere with cross-linking of the product, enough 2 meters, and for sure will have a desire to change the process.
Spit did begin to sew!
As our grandmother used to sew for doors mats of braids, and we will.
THREAD took denim, but if not, you can double the normal to lay down, for the strength of cross-linking.
We go from the center of a circle (make the bottom of the basket), stitching edge pigtails. On the blue basket bottom diameter -30sm. Gossip bottom of your desired diameter, start to lift the braid on the sidewall.
To do this, when we sew braid adjustable bending arms, just bending it to the top and sew.
We obtain a smooth transition.
Then do sidewall When sewing the same braid is now in height.
The height course chooses you.
on a blue basket height 27cm.
Now the handle – the same pigtails
I took them to the eyelets, for beauty products.
Eyelets take these to plait tightly included in it (depending on the pigtails thickness)
Before installation of eyelets, in their places future installation, holes on the basket, in addition, stitched and cemented to braid not crawled.
install grommets, insert the pen and braids at the ends of tying them in a knot! Hooray! Shopping is ready!

How to make beautiful tassels of thread

tassels of thread 1

Brushes are very often used by us in the interior. They are in vogue for centuries and are always a decoration of our house.

Often we, master, use a brush to decorate their works. Looking for beautiful hands, I came across a very poor range and decided to make the brush itself.

So we need to work:

1. Threads of silk or nylon.

2. plank.

3. Scissors.

4. Thin hook.

5. Super glue gel.

6. Caps for beads.

Step №1

I want to draw your attention to a thread. After a long search, I stopped here on such a silk thread, which is very beautiful shine. Also in this master class will be used nylon threads for shoes (brown).

Step №2

Cut the thread, in the threaded hole and is fastened on the bow tight side, so we do not interfere with the knot in the winding thread.

Step №3

Overturn  bundle and begin to wind down the strings.

Step №4

Next, untie the knot side and take out the thread.

We tie a double knot. Then drip on the bundle drop of super glue. And tying another knot. This is necessary because the silk thread is very smooth and have the ability to come untied.

Step №5

To make a loop – hanger for our brush – cut the extra thread and tying her knot, forming a loop.

Also, we fix the knot with glue and cut the unnecessary tip. Is passed under the wound. Tighten the loop.

Step №6

Overturn of wood and cut the thread with a sharp knife.

We get just such a brush

Step №7

Take the cap for beads. I have a different, preferably take them longer.

Insert the scissors in it and decompress. We turn off the brush in half, is passed in the cap. Hold your fingers, tucking and hiding our strong knots. Then stifle stronger. Cropped exactly tips.
We get just such a brush:

A few tips:

In order to thread the hanger into a large cap for beads, use a small hook.

If the strings are not wrinkled or smooth, they can be steam the ferry

The ends of the thread can be toned bitumen or ink, they will become more vintage.

Instead of caps for beads can sheathe beaded tassels.

Thread-hangers can be made from beads.

Instead of silk thread can be used thin twine, then you get a very different, but also a beautiful result.

So, after spending one night here we get a supply of beautiful brushes for our work:

Thank you very much for your attention!

DIY: Beautiful Clocks “Fire Flower”

Clocks  Fire Flower 1

clocks “Fire Flower” by fusing.

As always, the main task of this master class to show everybody passionate about the beautiful products made of colored glass, which, as they say, “no gods pots”, “the devil is not so terrible as his baby”: -), and so on …

At this time, I wanted to do something summer, bright, fiery … So the idea of “Fire Flower”. Especially that all elements of the product are quite simple. To begin, I cut square billets (size 27 x 27 cm) of a pale pink glass with a pattern. He outlined the center of the square a permanent marker and put a twelve-pointed star, which indicates the position of the rays squares tags, symbolizing the number of hours.

The next step, I stuck a transparent glue “Moment” cut squares of deaf brown glass about the size of 15×15 mm. Clay lot of smear is not necessary. A single tiny droplet on the element. For better visibility in the future-digit squares on top of brown squares, I have pasted squares of white deaf glass about the size of 1×1 cm., Too, for each drop of glue on. Now came the turn of “Ray-petals” fire flower. They are made of red, purple and orange transparent glasses. Since this is not an ordinary flower, while still “fire”, the rays, I cut the petals slightly curved and pointed to looked like tongues of fire. I also added a bit of gold and pink colors of light. Special paints intended for firing in a furnace. In my personal view of the ink-rays additionally, fill the blank space background and a few animated picture … If someone from the “masters” wants this step to criticize, it is appropriate to recall that “the artist can offend everyone” and, in general, “I see” – -). Well, here in the evening so I wanted to … Here’s what happened after the six-hour sintering oven in my favorite “UPFM-005.” Rather 6:00 went slow heating to the glass is cracked. It goes after the sintering in an oven at maximum temperature for about 10 minutes went That was enough. This time I decided to drill a hole 8 mm under the clockwork after glass sintering. So, purely from- there is a difference. The differences to be found.
Turned workpiece bottom up, stuck in place drilling ring of plasticine, I poured some water there. Water is necessary to diamond drill work properly, it does not overheat and prematurely does not crumble. I, accordingly, was not breathing glass dust, which, by a strange coincidence, health does not add …: -)
Perhaps there should be added, he cut glass process glass cutter glass dust does not produce harmful is not. But we have to work with glasses, so that when the glass breaking of the possible fine particles is not flown into the eye. If you do not wear glasses, you can use the operating safety glasses with regular glass, which you can buy at any hardware store (or store tools) for 20 to 30 rubles. That’s the end result. It remains only to insert the clock mechanism.
Since the composition of hours there is a lot of bright shades of red, black clock hands (hour and minute) “lost,” so I have them painted in yellow gold color from spray cans.
For those who still do not know: stained glass is necessary for any item on the fusing technology used with the same coefficient of linear expansion, so that when the cooling of the product is not cracked due to the reduction in the size of different items in different products.That’s all. How it worked – to judge you, but I can only say that the manufacture of such products did not seem very complicated …

How to create a cascading bouquet of artificial flowers

cascading bouquet flowers 1

This small master class, I decided to show you how to make a cascading bouquet, understudy in taping technique. I do not know, does anyone still doubles so this technique and I like the fact that it allows you to create absolutely any bouquet shape, whether ordinary hemisphere or “waterfall” to the floor.

Necessary materials:

– small head rose (on the job took them 40 pieces)
– Rose leaves 10 pieces
– a pair of white carnation bushes
– a few sprigs of greens with tiny leaves
– Floral wire is 0.7 mm thick
– Teip tape
– Hot air and hot melt adhesive
– Scissors
– Wire cutters
– Satin tape 4 cm wide and 2.5 cm (2 m)
– Lace 50 cm
– Beads (15 pieces)
– Decorative buttons
Getting Started. Cropped bushes with branches carnation so that we stayed on them “legs”. In order to collect a bouquet of roses in the head, you must first create them stems. Here we need the one wire that was left of carnations.

Cut it into pieces, centimetre 4-5. Such pieces will need as much as the heads of roses we’ll use. Next, we need to put on the head of the wire segments roses. To do this, we are on the tip of the wire we put a drop of glue and put on our roses. It looks as follows: We continue to form stems. Take the wire and florist primate it to our legs so that the ends of the wires were down, prolonging the existing legs. In the same way we do with the rest of the flowers and greenery. Now we need to wire propitiate. To do this, take the tape and from top to bottom, a little stretching her tight and carefully amalgamate she ends our wire. That’s legs and ready. At first glance, someone who has not worked in the technique of taping, the process may seem long, but when “the hand is already packed,” it is done quickly. Now you are ready to assemble. Take one at the flower and begin to put them together to form a “cap” of the bouquet. It is better to do so: lay down a few stalks, tap-recorded tape. Then added another and again recorded. So we continue to put a flower in the flower, alternating red and white and adding a small green, trying to give the bouquet shape of a hemisphere. Here it was possible to stay and start to decorate the handle of the bouquet, but as he we should be cascaded, we will form a part of its drop down. To do this, take in hand a rose, then, below (below the height of the head), are putting two other roses. Below them three pieces. In between, do not forget to insert a carnation and greens. And since several rows depending on how long we want to make the cascade. In form it resembles a Christmas tree. Next, you need to connect the top and bottom of the bouquet. To do this, we bending the lower part and are putting it to the top so that together they constituted a single unit. We fix tap-tape. Now start to decorate the stem of the bouquet. First, on the edges of the leaves of roses surrounded by cushioning the foot and again fix tap-tape. Satin ribbon width 4 cm cut into 8 pieces of 10-12 cm. Each leg folded in half are bent, as shown in the photo and fix with glue. These blanks around the perimeter of foot paste bouquet. Determine how long we want to leave the leg and cut the excess stems clippers. Again, fix their tap-tape. Then decorate the leg across the length of the ribbon width of 2.5 cm. In the centre of some of the glue in beads roses. On foot, the top we tie or glue lace ribbon and decorate with decorative buttons. Well that’s all, our bouquet is ready!

Round frame mirror made of cardboard

round frame 13

Greetings, friends! I present to your attention another master-class on the creation of decorative frames made of cardboard, prepared by a great expert in this matter.This time Marina tell you how to make a round frame for a mirror . The new workshop will undoubtedly enrich your perception of cardboard and corrugated board within the possibilities of a whole. And following the laid down in it hints and tips, you will be able to do with their hands delicious interior decoration – for the joy yourself and loved ones.

Materials and tools:

– Three-layer corrugated board thickness of 0.4-0.6 cm
– soft corrugated board (dual-layer)
– color double layer micro corrugated: white, green, orange, brown
– a sheet of paper or thin cardboard (for the template)
– the color of the markers of micro, to paint sections (if necessary)
– the orange and green beads
– a pencil
– a compass
– stationery knife
– scissors –
dressmaker pins
– tweezers (for the convenience of placing strips and decorative elements)
– glue for cardboard (important the adhesive was of good quality and when dry – transparent)
– double sided tape
– a hook for the frame
– a round mirror (or photo)

 

1. Preparation of the frame .

I had two small mirrors, so for them, I decided to make beautiful frames. The size of the frame is determined based on the size of the mirrors or pictures (but note that the photo of the scope of this design then does not remove).

The diameter of my mirror – 20 cm Optimum width of field frames -. 6-7 cm , but you can do more. Thus, we need a circle of cardboard with a diameter of 20 + 7 + 7 = 34 cm .

We draw on the cardboard circle compass required diameter or, if there is no compass, draw out some round object of appropriate size. I found a lid on the pot diameter 35 cm.

We draw another concentric circle whose diameter is the diameter of the mirror.

From cardboard cut out a circle of 2-3, one (bottom) – a rear wall of the frame, one or two others made a circle with a truncated central part – the window for a mirror or picture.

On the back wall of the right anchoring hook (if it is inserted through the hole in the wall).

Check if our mirror included in the carved window to correct, if necessary. A number of cardboard circles with windows depend on the thickness of the mirror and cardboard thickness – mirror should be slightly pritopleno (pictured below mirror turned up the rear surface).

Merge layers of cardboard.

We make the outer edges of the frame. The process I have described in detail in previous workshops (for example here ), so I do not allow myself to repeat.

In short, this frame I pasted two glued strips of soft (two-layer) corrugated board. The width of the outer strip of the sum of the widths of all the layers of cardboard 0.6 cm (height and width of the inner rim strips). The lengths of the bars are equal to a circumference of the frame with a small allowance.

Then glue the mirror. One can choose different ways. I taped it to the double-sided tape, but you can use glue. If the frame is not to be used for the mirror, and for a photo or image, it is better, of course, is to use an adhesive tape. Once the mirror is glued, paste over the inside edges of the frame, as well as external – layer cardboard strips.

Already at this stage, you can start to decorate the frame of a different color, for example, paste a strip of double-layer micro color between the two strips of brown corrugated cardboard. I did not do it in this box but then plastered bordyurchiki and external, and the internal circles of orange and green strips of corrugated cardboard (below it will be seen).

I remind you that all the internal strips for edging and decoration should be the width of 0.6 cm .

2. Decorating frame .

This preparatory work is completed. Getting started decorating the inside of the frame. It is a creative process, and you can do it to your liking. I think that those who are engaged in a classic Quilling could well draw a frame in this technique because the paper is thinner and plastic and has greater opportunities for decoration.

Well, we, corrugated lovers will not be deflected to the side and remain loyal to our favorite material – corrugated cardboard. ?

The entire surface of the circle, I divided into 8 parts. This is easily done if you cut around template out of paper and put it on the layout. The same range of paper is useful for sketching.

Design, as a rule, undergoes changes in the course of 2-3 – this is normal.

For long curls, I snapped  (green, white, Kraft), length 22 cm , but you can make them a little less. If you have a different diameter of the box, specify the size of the elements on their own, according to the situation.

Adding 3 strips together, spin, first one way, then the other end turned in another direction. it is not necessary to glue together the strips as they are moved relative to each other, so they should be free when tightening. They just need to give the desired shape to make it easier to glue on the surface of the frame. Even better glue them individually, but I realized only then when all done.

Glue the curls at the scheduled place, causing a small amount of glue on the lower sections of cardboard strips. We make sure that the colors are arranged equally.

If you are going to use beads, immediately make curls on their size.

Here in the photo still curls in the original version, I later made changes and added more slips.

Making the petals. The order of colors from the center to the edge and their length: White – 7-7.5 cm , green – 8.5 cm , orange – 9.5 cm , white – 10.5 cm in the center, I taped green oblong beads.

If you do not have beads or you do not want to use them, you can leave the middle of a blank tab. Or you can make the roll, lightly dismiss it and flatten the edges so that it fills the space inside the petals.

Next, I filled all the remaining space in small curls of different shapes of gofropolosochek natural (brown) color, but when I looked a general view, I realized that something was missing. For a long time looking for the option you want, and finally realized that the main curls at me too tight. So I  even one green strip on both sides of each curl. Curls are wider and better look.

The remaining space on a frame, I filled the curls of any form of natural corrugated cardboard. And so I turned to the mirror frame.Good luck and inspiration!

How to make cock from quilling paper

Wonder Cock 1

Time is already late, but tomorrow it will be exactly once! It would like to see our young talent and handicraft have seen this work. It is a pity, of course, it’s too late, I did it, but the astrological Year of the Rooster begins not on January 1, but much later, so that we can try to do more!
