DIY Beautiful roses from watercolor paper – Step by step

Beautiful roses can be made from the watercolor paper . The color scheme can be very different, and the use of such flowers in the decoration.

The paper – Whatman “Gosznak”.
These flowers I do of Korean paper, but in the master classes of special use drawing paper, so that you quickly determine the paper.

Prepare a lot of parts, score the petals fold stack. Take a spray bottle and spray water between the layers. Knead the stack of paper, like a slice of dough for dumplings. Periodically check the middle, it is necessary that the paper is soaked in water.
Or the second option – fast. Place a stack of paper under running water, dip a layer. Remove from the water. Use your fingers to distribute water, soak again until the paper gets wet completely. The second option I like the most 🙂
Not very pressing with a wet paper proceed to the next step.

PS: Who has difficulties with the purchase of a composter 5cm, use the template.

The small amount of water dilute the ink. Or sponge type paint with a pad, dip in water and wring out. You can use the printer ink.

Sponzhem (I cosmetic) promakivat movements (such as “Peck, Peck”), color seredinku upper layer stack, set aside, and then the next layer. Thus, gradually shifting into the second half stack of color. Do not be afraid of the excess water and flimsy parts.

Take the second half of the unpainted parts and barely touching the edge dip into the paint.

Painted stack parts mash fingers, evenly distributing the paint. Check the middle, if the paint is distributed poorly, squirts water spray between the layers.

Zakonchiv staining, good water press fabric.
Clutching a stack to one side, dry the hair dryer parts on all sides until almost dry. Do not use a hair dryer to embosinga.

Detail fold. Collecting accordion, make folds.
Hold fingers detail about the middle, hold the edge of the tweezers. Gently rotate only the tweezers until the paper does not slip out of it. If the paper is torn, the more dry the parts hairdryer. Conversely, if the fold is not laid soft – moisten.

Adjust the folds, holding fingers area.

Gently flatten the piece and leave to dry.

When the first deferred parts dried up. can be specks.
Take the ink pad black. Better ink resistant to water. Brush with a short stiff bristles (I from the vacuum cleaner to clean the filter can be pulled out of the tuft brushes).
Vertically holding the brush, make a point movement specks.

While the details have not yet dried completely, use the line with circles and tools, make an indentation in the center, dropping petals on the line.
Leave the parts to dry completely.

Glue the parts, pressing tool in the center.

Make a hole awl. Fold the stamens in half, using a wire.

Drag the stamen to the middle of using the line with the hole, so as not to deform the flower. Apply the adhesive so that then cut the excess, stamens are not dropped. Lower stamens to the desired length by gluing them to flower.

That this result was stained in the center and on the edges. The options really are so many and each flower is unique. Do a lot at once, in stages, it is very convenient and much less time than if you make one flower. The process is very exciting and challenging, boring only stamens inserted.While I was preparing for the master class, so I absorbed that made a huge bunch of flowers for 3 days – 236 pcs. Enough for a year or two 🙂

Keep flowers convenient threading a wire through the eyelets of the stamens. For works by suitable simply cut off.

DIY Handmade brutal cup of denim

I want to tell you how to make brutal cup of denim scraps.

This is no big deal. Along with shooting on everything about everything took a couple of hours.

To produce it do not even need a needle and thread, you only need to stock some of the materials that you would otherwise be thrown away. So, we need:

1) thick cardboard tube, which is wound around the linoleum. It is clear that every day is such a thing at home and can not attend, but now you know that you can ask friends or family who started a repair. 🙂 We have a once thrown out (were stupid), and that I begged my brother when he was doing repairs. Even I had to saw it into pieces, as the three-meter in the car does not fit;

2) a bunch of old jeans seams. I used to rework ripped jeans, but, firstly, it is terribly long, and secondly, a lot of debris in this thread fray. So I began to simply cut off. That’s handy! Cut off the need to stitch the seams with beautiful (mostly domestic) close to the seam. Very well, if they are different in color – so even more interesting;

3) hacksaw to cut off a piece of pipe;

4) Furniture stapler;

5) thick cardboard to the bottom;

6) colored cardboard for inner walls of the cup;

7) the glue that you like and it seems quite reliable. I Moment-crystal.

8) a couple of pieces of denim to bottom.

I have a rough edge of the pipe, it had to be cut. I pasted masking tape so that the ends exactly united. He measured out by 10 cm – is the depth of our cup. Taking advantage of a hacksaw (and male force) to cut off a piece of markup. Scotch tape is not necessarily clean.

Now we sort the seams along the length: short (13-15 cm) to vertical (I have 16 pieces), long – for contours (about 43-45 centimeters). One seam of the trouser leg is enough for 2 lanes contours. Now furniture stapler short stretches to one end of the pipe at a distance of approximately 1 cm from each other

Then we begin to spin out long stretches of the side of the cup, hiding under the ends of the vertical stripes. Horizontal stripes when weaving Stretch, so the cup will be smoother. Excess cut the butt and prishpilivayut stapler, it is better not to press strongly to the bracket did not come out from the inside. If you still come out or from the outside to be fit is not tight, it is possible to adjust the hammer.

The photo shows the place stapling. They will not be seen, closed vertical stripes.

The vertical stripes in the weaving and Stretch.

When the spin finish (I got 9 rows) are bent by sticking the ends of the vertical bars and prishpilivayut the ends of the pipe, at the very beginning.

I cut off the excess, but it is more convenient to do it, get neater. That’s the sort of thing we have got:

Making the bed plate. Cut the cardboard circle 2: large – on the outer radius jars, lower – Inland. We cut out of the denim patches on them slices, leaving the hem allowance. Glue the cardboard circle to the jeans (I glued), an incision around the edge and fold back the allowances, also gluing them.

Now connect via Crystal large circle with one end of the resulting cup and little glue inside.

The upper section of closing another strip, sticking it with adhesive.

Cut out of colored cardboard (I took this time black embossed) rectangle, a width of 10 cm, length – equal to the inner circumference of the pipe and glue on the inner walls of the cup.

Now we put the entire structure under the press to the bottom and top rim firmly and evenly stuck. Voila! The cup is ready! You can give your loved or brother, but you can keep the favorite of the hook, pencils or cosmetic brushes in the end.
