Once I already told that I myself did a gypsum stone in the decoration of the walls, but I didn't do a master class on him, it was ripe.
Usually such a stone is done with stamping. It is done (or bought) the silicone form of a stone sample is filled with a gypsum solution, dried, painted, and then only it is mounted on the walls. But I had a special case, the entrance door turned out to be in the tunnel, because the kitchen was completed for children, hallways and amenities, and the wall of the house is thick in almost a meter ... It was necessary to beat this niche so that she would be decorated with living room . The finished stone would not come up here, it would be too difficult to customize it, because I decided to make a stone immediately on the wall.
So, I needed the following materials and tools:
1. Tazik to knead the solution;
2.Metallic and plastic spatulas;
3. White cement, satingps, PVA glue, water;
4.Reckers;
5. Multicolored, brushes, water, rag, porolon;
6. Professional paper;
7. Acrylic matte varnish;
8. Primer for deep penetration walls.
First, come up with someone stone you want to get, draw a place under the stone on a ready-to-decor the wall (it is better to do it until the wallpaper sticking) and draw the shape of each stone. Now take the primer of deep penetration and a large brush color the place under the stone. For now, while the primer dries. It is better to simply progress, then exactly your stone will be very tight on the wall. My repair is already 8 years old, and a stone, like a new one, despite the fact that he is on the aisle ...
We prepare the solution ... per 1 kg of satingips 2-3 tablespoons with a slide of white cement and the so much PVA glue, mix the mass, gradually pouring water to the density of home cream.
Do not immediately make a lot of solution, the cement is very quickly grasped and you will not be able to quickly use it, it is better to have such a quantity that I wrote or even 2 times less.
All pictures are the finished stone, because the wallpaper is already stuck next to him, but I glued a stone on a bare oveeded wall.
On the stone painted on the wall, put the gypsum mass not a thick layer, the stone will be done in the 2 stages (if the volume is not important to you, then it is possible in one layer), so you can fill out a few stones and let them dry. Between the stones we remove the solution simply with your fingers, moistened with water, and the surface between the stones and the shape of the stone itself is aligned. While you laid out all the stones in one layer, the stones at the beginning of work were already dried. Prepare interesting big seashells (they will make prints) and small, which will be part of the stone.
For a better clutch of the solution, I am in the "spray" for flowers poured primer with water (1: 2) and a little witched the stone before applying the second layer of gypsum. The spatula is applied to the stone, the solution is not careful, with irregularities, insert the shell into the solution and the other shells make prints. We pass with my fingers moistened with your fingers, removing unnecessary.
When our stone is trying, inhibit it to touch he was smooth. All irregularities will remain, but you will not cling to it, and dust will not get gather.
Of course, it is not necessary to make a decor of a stone with shells, you can simply leave it "stone", but you can write a runes on it or print bugs and plants ... It all depends on your imagination. I have an African topic, because shells.
We begin to paint a stone. I wanted to make it multicolored, because I gouache bred to the liquid state with water and covered her stones with it. When the paint dried, the wet foam rubber (a sponge for washing the dishes) cleaned the paint, helping a damp cloth. The paint should remain in the depressions of the stone. I used green brown shades.
Now you can pick up the paint under the color of your wallpaper and gently cry between pebbles. When all the paint dry out all the construction acrylic matte varnish (better for outdoor use). Now these stones can even wash.
Well, show fragments of decor ...
Many stone did not sculpt, just like a decor.
Of course you can make a solid wall with stone or fragments, as you want. Just my way of laying a stone on the wall eliminates the trimming of the finished stone and greatly simplifies its layout.
