Balls of thread look pretty nice. They do not require any expenses or special skills. And the use of these jewelry is literally limitless. You can use such spider webs made of threads as independent elements, Christmas tree decorations and even lampshades. From several cobwebs, you can make figurines of snowmen, birds, animals. What you have enough imagination, then you can do.
It is necessary
- Balloon or fingertip (sold at the pharmacy);
- Any threads;
- Any glue;
- Vaseline, oil, or fatty cream;
- Scissors;
- Needle;
- Plastic testicle from kinder surprise;
- Beads, sequins, beads or other little things for decoration.
Instructions
Step 1
Inflate the balloon to the desired size, grease it with petroleum jelly, oil or fat cream, so that later it will be easier to detach it from the threads. Make a through hole in the testicle with a hot needle. Pour the glue into the testicle. If there is no testicle, you can take a plastic bottle and punch holes in it.
Step 2
Thread the thread with a needle through the egg. The thread will now pass through the plastic testicle and be wetted with glue. Now tie the string to the balloon and wind it up. How much to wind the threads, see for yourself. Just don't wind too much or your spider web won't be able to keep its shape.
Step 3
After winding as many threads as needed, secure the end with a knot and hang the ball to dry. It should take at least 1 day until the glue completely dries and hardens.
Step 4
After the glue dries, you need to gently deflate the balloon and pull it out of the spider web. The resulting spider web ball can be decorated with beads, feathers, beads or other small things.
Step 5
If you can't wind up a thread soaked in glue on a ball, just wind it dry, and then thoroughly saturate it with glue using a sponge or brush;
Step 6
Instead of glue, you can easily take starch paste or sugar syrup. For paste, take starch at the rate of 3 teaspoons per 1 glass of water. Stir and bring to a boil;
