Decorative box manufacturing process
Making roof
On the cardboard blacks and cut the circle. The size depends on how much the mill you want to do. For a mill height, 19 cm approached a circle with a diameter of 19 cm.
We make a straight incision from the edge to the center of the circle.
We connect the outbound circle into the cone, glue.
Finished cone stain in dark brown, close to color of coffee beans.
When the paint dries, the cone is completely covered with coffee beans.
Making the "walls" of the coffee mill
To do this, a suitable box must be wrapped in a rope, giving the walls to the walls. The box from the chips was very high, I cut it approximately in half. An ordinary plastic bottle can come to create "walls".
We apply glue on the box and tightly wind the box of the rope.
Walls also decorate in some places with coffee beans, imitating stone masonry.
For the manufacture of a coffee mill door, you can take any thin wooden specks or sticks from ice cream, it is very convenient to use a bamboo napkin.
Cutting threads, dissolve a bamboo napkin.
Follow the future door on wooden rails.
Cut the door along the line and stick on the fabric.
The door is painted with dark brown paint, giving it a kind of old wood
From thick threads weave the pigtail and glit to the door in two places. If necessary, cover them with paint and varnish.
From a thin wire with the help of round-headers or tweezers make a small ring.
Ring glit to the door, imitating the handle.
The finished door must be glued to the mill.
Making the blades of the coffee mill
For blades, you can use thin rails or wooden spanks. We connect them crosswise and fix glue.
Little, suitable in size, racks strengthen the blades.
Rake paint in dark brown to imitate old wood. The middle can be decorated with coffee beans. Then the blades are covered with varnish.
With the help of glue, fix the blades on the roof.
Making coffee bags
For tailoring bags, it is best to take a coarse cloth or burlap.
Small cut sews on the sides and turn off the inside.
The edges are sewn and fix the thread, the thread is tightened a little to the edges of the bag gathered.
On the bottom of the bag, you can put a piece of paper, cotton wool or fabric, and on top of gluing coffee beans. The bag itself is also decorating with coffee beans and covered with varnish.
We do the foundation
From the fiberboard or dense cardboard, cut the circle to which we will put the mill.
We try on the circle of the mill, bags and labeled the pencil, where objects will be located.
Coffee beans make a small fence. Grains fix glue.
Free from objects area is closed with a cloth imitating grass. Printe.
Mill glue to the base. If you wish, you fix the bags as glue. Circle edges decorating coffee beans.
Inside, you can put a jar with coffee - it turns out an original gift. If desired, the roof can be glued, and then the mill will become a decorative coffee figurine.
Coffee mill is ready.
