money flower
There is probably not such a happy person on the entire globe who has never in his life faced the problem of choosing a gift. Not an easy gift for a difficult person. A gift for that special category of people who have already achieved everything in life, and who already have everything. We are talking about a gift for a boss, supervisor, business partner or, in general, an oligarch.
It becomes clear that choosing a gift is not a simple matter. What can you give them? There is only one answer - only a unique item, exclusive, very unusual and attracting everyone's attention. Where can I get one?
Do it yourself. Thanks to a detailed master class, you will be able to make the most amazing and unusual present, suitable for any occasion. You can literally grow a “Money Tree” in just a few evenings (initial photo).
What you will need:
1. Pot. There must be a tree growing somewhere.
2. Construction plaster or alabaster. It will be used to give strength and weight to our work.
3. Shovel handle. Future trunk.
4. Small rubber children's ball - to create a crown.
5. Construction tape.
6. 3 meters of ribbon of any color.
7. Glue and hot gun.
8. Souvenir bills of various denominations. They are used during wedding ceremonies and are sold in any wedding salon.
Process description.
First of all, you should prepare the pot and trunk. You can safely work on the crown while the plaster dries. But first things first:
We prepare all the necessary items.
We saw off the trunk to the required length (shovel handle). Carefully wrap it with tape, fixing it with hot glue at small intervals, approximately every 2-3 turns.
We try on and attach the barrel exactly in the middle of the pot to the hot gun. Next you need to act very quickly.
We dilute the plaster with water to the consistency of thick sour cream and fill the pot with the trunk fixed exactly in the center.
Here you should hold the barrel for a while, making sure that it does not tilt to the side. The gypsum solution sets very quickly, so it won’t take much time. We set the pot and trunk aside to dry and prepare the crown.
We wrap the rubber ball on all sides with at least 2-3 layers of masking tape.
This is done so that it does not burst at the moment when you stick banknotes to it with a hot gun.
Glue the cup-tray from the pot to the ball with the wide part. And we glue the narrow part of the pallet to the trunk. Like this:
Now we leave the entire structure to dry and gain strength, and move on to creating the crown.
To make one money flower you will need 5 bills. We put every 4 aside for now, and fold every fifth in half:
We make small bags from banknotes folded in half. You can glue the corners together, you can fasten them with a stapler, it makes no difference, do what is convenient for you.
We cut the remaining pieces of paper from the corner like this:
We wind the paper from the uncut side onto a pencil or knitting needle to create a rounded petal. Glue the first petal to the bag.
Then the second, third and fourth, in a circle. The result is a flower made from money.
Our large tree will need approximately 30-40 of these flowers, depending on the density of the crown.
We begin to glue the flowers to the round ball base on top, gradually filling the space and alternating flowers of different denominations (photo 18). You should end up with this beautiful money ball.
That, in principle, is where all the difficulties lie. All that remains is to revive our creation a little. To do this, you can add some artificial foliage to the crown and decorate the plaster in the pot. The easiest way is to lubricate the surface with any quick-drying glue (moment, PVA and others) and cover it with millet, which can be spray-painted in any color. In the case of our experimental tree, gold ribbon and gold paint were used.
You can create such a money tree absolutely simply with your own hands. Feel free to surprise your friends and stand out with unusual gifts. Good luck to you in all your endeavors!
