Instructions
Step 1
The tray blank should be soaked in a noble chocolate color. To do this, dilute brown acrylic paint well with water or take a stain. Thanks to the use of wood stain, the tree will not be painted over, but will only emphasize its beautiful texture.
Step 2
Cover the bottom of the tray with thick plastic or a regular bag in two layers. Secure the corners of the film with a stationery stapler.
Step 3
To prevent the package from being visible through the side openings of the tray and handle slats, cover them with moss ribbons. Pick up ribbons that are no higher than the sides of the tray and place them between the bag and the sides of the tray.
Step 4
Plan ahead of time where which plants and décor will be. Fill the bottom with soil on top of the plant bag, and place drainage in the rest of the places. As a result, the mini-kindergarten will turn out to be much easier, everything will look proportionate and harmonious.
Step 5
Line the tray on top of the ground with wide ribbons of moss. Cut holes in the ribbons for planting. Plant your plants. It is better to choose plants with a small root system.
Step 6
Fence the flowers with a palisade. Pick up straight and not very thick branches and cut with pruning shears or scissors. Gather them into a fence using the beading wire. Place the fence in a semicircle.
Step 7
Now it's time to create a garden path from natural stone. You can take ready-made stones, or you can imitate, for example, from polymer clay. Mash the flesh-colored polymer clay, roll it into a layer 2-3 mm thick.
Step 8
Add streaks of brown clay and blend, but not completely, as you want to achieve a streak effect. Form tile stones using cutters of different sizes, or by pinching off a piece with your hands and rolling free-form parts. Bake for 15-20 minutes at 120 ° C.
Step 9
Install an incredibly beautiful openwork arch and let the bindweed along it. Divide the moss balls in half and place next to each other. Lay out a path of stones.
