They will help to create a unique mural, invented by you personally.

Getting ready for work

You first need to wind a lot of tubes for weaving. You will need old newspapers, which have to be cut into long rectangles width of 8-10 cm. At the edge of each strip is applied PVA glue and thereafter the angle of them twisted thin tube. For the convenience is worth taking a knitting needle to all blank panels to receive the same diameter.

Keep in mind that when a large number of splices in a future article you must use a very strong piece. They are made by the same method, but strips of double width.

You have to learn another trick that allows to increase the paper neatly vine - way to insert tubes into each other. Your first blanks panels are not perfectly cylindrical: the base will always be a little wider than the upper tip, although the need to seek a match. But precisely because of this can be spliced ​​lozinki almost imperceptibly, by introducing each rod small end into the socket of the previous. Only when it is desirable to scroll some more tubes, screwing them deeper. However, there are recommendations just cut a «komelek", but then transitions to the panels will not have such neat, as in the photo of experienced skilled workers.

basic engineering

In principle, all existing techniques of weaving from newspaper tubes are the same job with the willow vine, because, in fact, they are simply more affordable substitutes. The creation of complex elements and spectacular open-work patterns can be seen in numerous videos on the web. And the most popular and simple techniques that are easy to master, even for novice needlewoman, we give here.

concentric circles

The simple trick of weaving paper blanks for a panel of newspaper tubes. First begin to fold into a dense "snail" for reliability promazyvaya a small amount of adhesive surface thereof. Next vine is inserted into the narrow end first, glued and screwed on the circle.

To fix the "snail", if you want to escape from the panel or to the adhesive grips, you can bandage it across the strip of fabric - that does not spin. Thus do many flat circles of different diameters, and then stitch them together strong thread in a random order. The finished decoration can paste than your heart desires: herbarium, family photos or just beautiful pictures with decoupage cards.

Advice from the masters: Round zagotovki- "snail" for the front panel decoration need to recapture a hammer to get the most flat surface.

bedplate

So weave the bottom for baskets, but this technique can be used for the manufacture of the same plane figures panels. The procedure works:

1. On a flat surface to bed 3 or 4 tubes "snowflake" cross over them strictly at one point in the middle. For reliability, they can be glued together or fixed to the tips of the cardboard circle. Another blank under make Komelkov crosshairs and also secure.
2. Then we begin to weave paper vines, making of it, all the same concentric circle. In this case, you need to turn the tube to pass above and below the foundations of a snowflake.
3. Gradually increase the working strip and continue to weave a cobweb-panels. If this technique is not given to you, look carefully photos on the Internet, where the weave baskets from this vine.

With the increase in the diameter of the crafts will have to insert additional braiding axis. It is advisable to place them evenly - at the center of each sector. When the panel reaches the desired size, sticking long ends just wrapped inside and woven into the overall fabric.

rope

Here, too, should prepare the framework for future panels, but he can have any geometric shape. Thereafter, each working tube is folded into halves and clings to one of the guide ray intersects and encircled on two sides around the next. Increase vines have once more and at both ends, so the workpiece is better to do authentication. But you can weave a very neat and beautiful panels of any shape.

decoration

The easiest way to make a nondescript newspaper beautiful crafts - repaint it in the color you want. Perform this part of the work can be both before weaving, and already on the finished product. The second option is more often used in cases where the panel is only the basis for surface decoration.

Staining to twisting may be performed in any composition - gouache, acrylic, even stained. The latter, of course, does not hide the printed letters, but will make the paper softer and spin of these tubes will be more convenient.

Decoupage

This is the most popular form of art today, allows you to transfer complex printing patterns on virtually any surface. Here you need a white or very light base panels, PVA glue, brush and cloth trim with a beautiful pattern or special decoupage card.

On the Internet, a lot of training photos and video by this technique, but in general it all comes down to a simple operation. The thin paper layer with the image is cut or carefully quenched by the contour, and then simply adhered to the surface of the painted panels. We must act carefully so as not to tear or bruise thin napkin. Try to work without hands, and only with a soft brush, and spread the adhesive with water in equal proportions.

applique

After weaving and assembling workpieces paste decorative panels can be anything:

• figures from felt;
• natural materials (bark, buds, flowers and dried leaves);
• beads;
• molded or knitted elements.

Mandatory condition durability of your panels, especially in unfavorable climates kitchen - finishing coating preservative. To do this, take regular nail on wood: it fixes put drawing, all hand-made article gives shine and prevents soak paper. Also can be used for nail art acrylic-based, which is sold in the form of an aerosol.
