You can also fill the room with a pleasant aroma, making all sorts of crafts from the grains or even their ground coffee. So what can be made of coffee?
A coffee tree
Perhaps this is the most popular coffee bean product. The grains themselves can be left as it is, you can paint (usually used golden or silver paint) in whole or in part.
The crown of the tree is cut out of the foam (this is a rather difficult process) or the plastic balls take the plastic balls of any size or make beads from papier-mache. Coffee beans are glued to a glue pistol, thick PVA or acrylic glue. It is necessary to do it very carefully. As for the gaps between the grains, then either the ball is pre-painted, or the gaps are filled with ground coffee, which is as desired by cinnamon, vanilla, etc., by the way, can be other original compositions from coffee balloons. The tree does not need to be with a spherical crown, the crown can be irreversible. If you want to make a Christmas tree, then it will be a cone.
The stroke can serve as a wire, it is best to make branching. It is covered with plaster, and then paint or coated with flavored ground coffee. The trunk can also be called a rope.
The pot is any jar or flower pot. If the tree is small, a jar from under the cream will fit. Decorations - at your discretion: ribbons, bows, beads, rhinestones, small insect figures, flowers, anise sprockets.
Coffee Hearts
Made in the same way as trees.
Frames for photos and pictures
To make the most simple frame, you just need to glue the grains to the basis of wood, cardboard or other suitable material. More original frames are obtained if the grains are laid out in the form of a picture, combined with a cloth - ordinary or with embroidery.
A simple applique of coffee beans in the form of a picture will be an original decoration for any housing. Coffee beans stick to handmade greeting cards.
Clock
The technique of their manufacture is similar to how the decoupage do. The basis for the dial is taken, the clockwork, and then the case of technology and fantasy.
As in the manufacture of any other crafts from coffee, you will need coffee beans, glue, paint, as well as other elements for decoration.
"Building" paper with coffee
Dense paper is maintained in coffee for about 10 minutes, periodically turning over (for uniform staining). In order for the edges to be "pesting", as if burned, take on a finger whispering instant coffee, and while the paper was still wet, rubbing it along the edges of the paper, giving an even greater effect of antiquity.
With boiled coffee make prints on paper. Such paper is used for the manufacture of postcards, for decoupage. In addition to the "Action" effect, the product acquires a delicious fragrance.
Caidial dolls
The attic dolls are soft toys, which, according to the myth of their occurrence, lacquered in the attic of the confectionery factory for many years and managed during this time not only to scribble and smoke, but also impregnate baking fragrances. And it doesn't matter, the doll is or a little animal, and for what pattern they are made.
Their distinctive feature is that the doll, stitched from cotton or linen fabric, is treated with a special way. For a cup of 150-200 g, 2 tsp.l. soluble coffee, 1 tsp. Cocoa, Cinnamon, Salt and PVA glue, you can add vanilla. Poured boiling water, stirred, give cool. Pop the sponge into the solution, press and paint the body and head. It is necessary to paint evenly over the entire surface of the body, and the sponge should not be very wet. It is necessary that only tissue stained, and the packing inside remained dry, then there will be no ugly stains and divorces. Heat the oven to 130 degrees, lay a doll onto the foil (and clothing - if any) and with an open door are dried to complete drying.
That's how a wonderful drink can please, even those who do not drink coffee. This does not mean that you are contraindicated to enjoy his invigorating aroma.
