Well, everyone, get ready, today I am again with my salted dough. And I propose to make a lamp! Do not be surprised, you should like.
First, you need to prepare the right dough. To do this, take a glass of shallow salt, two glasses of flour and water. Pour salt into a bowl and add some water to moisten the salt completely, now we will wait for it to dissolve a little. We will add flour and gradually, on a little bit begin to add water. Our task is to make a steep homogeneous dough, it is not easy for use at all, as it will not keep the form when modeling.
Here you see what it should happen?
Roll over the dough with a rolling pin on a piece of fine fabric, the old T-shirt will fit wonderful.
Using templates, cut the circle, about 20 cm in diameter.
Now we raise the cloth along with the dough and put the design on the glass jar. The bank should already stand on the contrary, covered with foil or paper for baking. We give the test the shape of the bowl and, if necessary, form intended holes in it.
We dry in the oven for an hour at a temperature of 60 degrees, then the design turn over and send it into the oven for an hour again. Let me cool and carefully remove the dough from the can. Cut out out of the remaining dough small details that glue to the bowl on PVA. Put in the oven and finally dried first on a small heating, and then we gradually increase it. The optimal temperature is from 80 to 100 degrees. After complete drying, you can paint the dough with a gouache or acrylic paints and coat acrylic varnish into several layers.
Now look at these lamps. After all, just left to embed a cartridge with electric stroke into the bowl, and after all, what a fabulously warm translucent effect turned out!
And if you still do not want yourself a lamp for this recipe, then okay, so be, let our salted bowl remain a vase!
