Poplar
Many craftswomen make various trees with their own hands from beads, plaster and other materials. Such trees certainly look very beautiful, but not many people know that plastic bottles and wire can also be used to make a beautiful decorative tree.
For production we need:
- Wire (thin and thick).
- Green plastic bottle.
- Scissors.
- Needle.
- Candle and matches.
- Pot.
- Gypsum or cement.
- Gray and green threads.
- Glue.
First, let's take a thick wire, in this case aluminum wire. Let's bite off three pieces of equal length from it and twist them together. On one side we bend the ends of the wire; this will be the base of the future tree.
We take a pot, pour a solution of gypsum (cement) into it, insert the trunk into the center of the pot with the curved ends down.
Set the pot aside until the solution has completely hardened. In the meantime, let's take care of the branches for the tree. Let's take a clean plastic bottle, cut off the bottom and neck from it, and cut this blank into small squares of different sizes.
Cut out leaves from these squares.
Now let's take a needle, heat its tip over a burning candle and make holes in the leaves.
And we melt the leaves themselves a little over a burning candle.
Now we need thin wire. Cut a piece of the required length from it. We pass one end of the wire through a hole in the leaf, bend the wire in half, the ends will need to be twisted together.
The result was some kind of twigs, and it is from these twigs that we will assemble a full-fledged beautiful branch. To do this, we make the required number of leaves that are on the wire, then we put the leaves together, and again twist the ends of the wire together. This way we squeak them well.
We collect these branches into one large branch. Accordingly, we weave the ends of the wire together. Here is one branch ready. We make the required number of branches for the tree.
We take threads, in this case gray, and wrap them around the twig. We fix the ends of the thread with glue. There is no need to wrap the end of the branch.
When the solution in the pot has hardened and the tree trunk is well fixed, we can collect our tree. We take one twig and bend the bare ends of the wire around the tree trunk. This way we fix the branch on the trunk. We make long branches at the bottom, and shorter branches at the top. This will make the tree look more natural.
This way we attach all the branches. The tree trunk will also need to be wrapped with the same threads as the branches.
The tree is ready. Now let's take green threads and make a pot of grass out of them. To do this, cut the threads into pieces of the required length, fold them in half, grease the folded side with glue and glue the thread to the plaster.
Then you can decorate the outside of the pot itself as you wish. And our “Topol” is already ready.
Using this technique you can make any tree: birch, rowan or apple tree. It depends on your imagination.
