Recently, hand-made has come into fashion - making various crafts with your own hands. This is a good way to pleasantly surprise and delight a loved one or to decorate your home with a beautiful and unique thing.
It is necessary
- - glass vase 25-30 cm high;
- - fern leaf;
- - spray intended for glass etching;
- - spray fixer;
- - alcohol;
- - dry autumn maple leaves.
Instructions
Step 1
Wash and dry the vase thoroughly, then degrease its surface with alcohol. Spray the front side of the fern leaf with a fixer spray, then attach it to the vase as tightly as possible. Next, spray the entire vase, along with the attached fern leaf, with a spray specially designed for etching glass. At the same time, first apply the first thin layer, then after 5-7 minutes another one and after another 5-7 minutes - the third. Then let the vase dry completely. Next, remove the fern leaves from the surface with warm water. Do this very carefully. A vase with a beautiful pattern is ready and will last a very long time if not washed in the dishwasher.
Step 2
Make a rose from wedge sheets. To do this, turn the sheet towards you with the back side, carefully bend it in half across the central vein and then twist it into a roll. Take another piece of paper and place this roll on the front side in the center of it. Bend the sheet so that the core of the future rose is a few centimeters below the fold. Carefully fold out the fold that protrudes above the core. At the same time, do not smooth the fold itself. Then, on both sides, carefully wrap the side edges of the autumn leaf folded in half around the core. Fix the edges of the leaf at the base of the "rose". Take another sheet and, placing it opposite the first "petal", repeat the same steps that were performed with the first. Add as many petals as you see fit. The rose will turn out the more magnificent, the more there are. Tie the base of the finished bud with threads. Having made many of these roses, you can make a whole bouquet and arrange it in the form of a beautiful ikebana
Step 3
Paint the maple leaf rosebuds, described in step 2, with silver or gold paint, and get a wonderful little New Year's souvenir that will look great on a New Year tree.
