You can make a variety of things with your own hands from scrap materials. You can make a small flower from wire and nail polish to decorate the interior.
Instructions
Step 1
You can work with: pencil, pen, felt-tip pen, etc. The main thing is that it is round. I used a makeup brush. Wrap wire around the brush. Roll the brush several times (about 3-5), holding the wire at the base. Cut off the extra piece of wire.
Step 2
You will get a circle.
Step 3
We do a similar action from the opposite side.
Step 4
We make 2 petals in a similar way. Remove the wire from the brush. We leave a stalk 6-7 cm long.
Step 5
Press the petal to the brush, pull on the edge (pressing the petal to the brush) to give it an elongated shape.
Step 6
Now we are working with varnish. It is best to use an ordinary varnish, it is best suited for this kind of work. With a brush, draw along the petal from the central part to the edge. Then we repeat the same action with the rest of the petals.
Step 7
After the first coat of varnish has dried (about 2-3 minutes), apply 2. This will help to paint the flower evenly and increase the durability of the product. Stick the flowers into a dish mat or sponge.
Step 8
You need to make only 9 flowers - 3 different colors. Leave to dry for about 1-3 hours or better overnight.
Step 9
You need to collect a twig of 3 flowers. You need to twist 2 flowers first.
Step 10
Now add 3 flower. It turns out 1 branch.
Step 11
We make 3 of these branches.
Step 12
Similar to step 9: twist 1 large branch. This will require a thin wire folded several times.
Step 13
We wrap the wire with a thread.
Step 14
Stir the alabaster following the instructions. Pour it into a mold (I took a mold for ice), previously greased with fat cream, insert a flower. Within 1, 5-2 minutes, it is necessary to hold the flower so that the alabaster stiffens a little and the figure in it does not move. After 2-4 minutes, as you let go of the flowers, you need to carefully pull the alabaster out of the mold.
Step 15
Leave the alabaster to dry for 1-3 hours, and then paint it in 2 layers with nail polish. It is advisable to paint all the flowers with another layer of varnish (colorless or colored). Leave to dry overnight in a well-ventilated area. Our little blue flower is ready.
