A year ago, I had a nervous period in my life when "not span did not sleep." To direct your energy in a peaceful direction and take something with something, I took off all the corners of the jars left in case "but suddenly will come in handy," brought empty from work from coffee, took away from a friend. Gathered them with sets, painted, Kleyel, lachd. When you made a dozen bright jars of different shapes and colors, calmed down.
The jars ended quickly ... It turned out, this is an unusual, bright, pleasant and necessary in the farm (any hostess will find what to put in them) the present. We were wearing gifted was my girlfriend, a classmate, my mother's favorite student and her mother, the cool leader of my son ... Everyone was happy, well, I was nice. Of course, this is not a gift for a wedding or anniversary, but quite a pleasant trifle for a trip to visit. So, jars ... two from the confiture, two from coffee: materials that we need:
- acrylic soil, white paint, green, ocher, black;
- Putty, Patina bituminous;
- PVA glue;
- napkins;
- water-based varnish;
- sandpaper, brushes, foam sponges, toothbrush.
First, a clear case, get rid of all labels. Machine overnight, my and dry: degrease with alcohol, vodka or lacquer removal liquid (I have vodka). The plastic lids should be sampled - for better clutch with a soil: coating acrylic soil. Let it dry in a natural way, the hairdryer can be overheat, and it slides from the glass: covered with white acrylic paint:
We wash on top of glue (I have PVA):
While dries, on the lids cans from coffee with a bulk grapes to close the drawing, which was there. In the old tube from glue, I have a putty, mixed with PVA glue:
On the fully dried napkin, the small emery paper we remove the folds unnecessary to us. And they, as a rule, will be banks, we have an uneven form:
Covered by varnish to protect against different troubles with further work:
Jars with greens Pray the bottom and covers with green acrylic paint in two layers. After drying, covered with varnish.
Jars with grapes on the sides add volume - draw grape "mustache" by the same putty with PVA:
Pain the leaves disturbed when gluing. We mix acrylic paints by tone, suitable for our background around grapes. Here - pale yellow and light brown. Collect covers and empty places on banks. I paint the foam sponge with chpoting movements - so smoothly falls:
Now a little artistically blurred. On jars with herbs we will appline small spray with the help of an old toothbrush. On the cans themselves - black and green, on the lids and the bottom - black and white. Sprinkle I do in the bath, checking it with newspapers. If something else flies where it is not necessary, the bath is easier to laugh than the apartment:
And the jars with grapes are coated with a bitumen patina and we wipe with a soft cloth. Volumetric grapes on the lids and "mustache" on the sides of the cans became more pronounced:
Covered all varnish several times, add decor (ribbons, refia). Now in the banks from the confiture can be kept dry herbs.
And in the cans from coffee, for example, dried fruits:
I do not pretend to the laurels of the discoverer, such master classes were enough ... But, maybe someone just reminded, and someone came to go searching in her bins some unnecessary jar of an interesting form, which can be done "manual ", Bright, sole in nature and in the coming weekend to go to tea to a friend with a cute present.
Here, for example, also cans from coffee:
These banks had delicious eggplants:
And this is the same napkin with herbs on the jars from baby food:
So, eat on health and ... go to visit!
