Making Christmas trees from eco materials
The manufacture of a New Year's Christmas tree made of natural materials according to its principles is very close to the technique of creating topiaries, however, has its own, author's nuances.
We make the basis for the Christmas tree.
We take a foam cone and wire.
In the cone we make a hole, carefully insert the wire into it and tighten the tip for stability.
Turn on the adhesive gun. While he heats up, get sisal (we have it white, under the color of the cone) and we can crack so much so that it can be wrapped in a foam.
When the gun is ready for use, carefully begin to stick sisal from the cone to the bottom. It should work out as you see in the photo.
At the next stage, it is necessary to fix the tree in a pot.
We take a small number of alabasra (it is also building gypsum) and wept water. Quickly fill in our prepared chest, insert our "Christmas tree" in it and align. Everything needs to be done neatly and not delay, because Alabaster freezes pretty quickly.
As a result, we have a pretty basis for our eco-tree.
Now we prepare the materials for the Christmas tree. I suggest starting from sisal balls.
We take a brown sisal, tear away a small amount and roll it in the palms in the form of a ball. The size should be approximately with walnut. It is done quickly, because He takes well the form we need.
At the end we get such a nice handheld.
Then we take walnuts, swing them on smooth halves using a knife.
I clean the cores, (they can then be ease) because for the Christmas tree we will need only a shell.
Next jeans.
Unfortunately, hats fall off from the base when you bring them home, so we stick them to a rightful place to return the previous look.
Cinnamon.
Usually cinnamon sticks are sold with a size of 10 cm, because For the Christmas tree, it is a lot, we cut them with scissors inad.
So, we got here such natural billets for the Christmas tree:
- Walnuts shell
- Justice
- Sizal balls
- Small chopsticks
- Badyan
We start gluing everything on the prepared foundation.
With the help of a glue gun, we alternately glue everything that was prepared earlier.
So we start on top ...
... and slowly moving down.
We try to place everything as close as possible.
The voids that we have formed, closing with a scented punch.
Now we take the white paint in the canister, go out on the fresh air and paint some nuts in white.
So we give our Christmas tree a snowy look.
So that there are no strong contrasts, some nuts are a little wiping with a wrap, moistened with a varnish removal fluid.
If you have a desire, you can decorate it with your favorite decorative elements that they have fallen in the covers. We dressed her in the garland from Beads and refreshed by white robes. A Christmas ribbon, wrapped by jute twist, was placed on the trunk.
Christmas tree from eco-materials is ready.
The eco-topic is very pleasant and interesting, so you can not stop on the Christmas tree, it is better to create a whole New Year's composition in the interior or on a festive table!
All fun holidays!
