Instructions
Step 1
Prepare the frame of the house. To do this, take an empty milk or juice bag and cut it to the desired height. Then, holding the cut bag to a piece of cardboard, draw out the outlines of the sides and bottom. Using PVA glue, glue the cardboard blanks, fixing with newspaper strips for reliability. After the 1st layer of cardboard has dried, repeat all steps again to get the second layer. Glue newspaper strips on top as well. Dry the product.
Step 2
Make a roof. To do this, cut a cardboard rectangle of the required size and fold it in half. Next, cut 2 pieces of cardboard equal in size to the smaller side wall, and cut 2 corners from them to make 2 identical triangles. Spread the side ends of the triangles with glue, put it in a cardboard rectangle bent in half and hold it a little so that the glue seizes (the distance between the triangles should be equal to the width of the larger side wall of the house). Record everything with newspaper strips. Use them to hide all the cut places. Dry it.
Step 3
Decorate the house. Decorate the roof first. Take the eggshell and place it in cold water for 3 hours. Break the edge, pick it up with your finger and remove the inner film. Stick the shell pieces onto the roof. To do this, put a large piece of the shell on a surface greased with glue and slightly press, when the shell cracks, use a toothpick to push the resulting small pieces to the desired distance. In this way, decorate the entire roof. Now take care of the walls of the house: fold the bottom layer of the three-layer napkin and stick it on the walls with glue diluted with water. Dry it.
Step 4
Decorate the entire house with modeling paste, crystal paste and appliqués of your choice. You can add something at your discretion. Imagine. Fix everything on top three times with acrylic varnish. Your tea bag house is ready.
