The first way: the cooler stickers
The combination of beauty and simplicity of realization make such a decor an unconditional leader. There are a lot of options and types of stickers. In general, vinyl stickers and more often black, less often with the addition of one color or full-color. As a rule, stickers, especially solid ones, are applied to relatively new refrigerators with smooth doors, like in the nord, indisite, samsung, Bosch, lg. Models of the Soviet period with convex doors, like those of the Dnipro, Minsk, ZIL, Oka, Orsk, Biryus and others refrigerators, are better decorated with decoupage or full painting, because a vinyl sticker can lie on such a surface with defects.
Most stickers are devoted to cool cats with food. Here is a very interesting photo of the sticker on the refrigerator.
Method two: magnets
This method has existed for many years, and some people are already fit to buy a second refrigerator to accommodate all the magnetic jewelry. Traditionally, they are brought from travel by the owners themselves or their relatives, come across in various promotions, less often they are acquired purposefully. However, magnets can also be so original that they can be safely put on this list.
The third way: decoupage
Decoupage is a favorite way of transforming many needlewomen. This fairly simple in the implementation of the technique allows you to create an exclusive design, in which handwork and the soul are read. The method is suitable for all models of refrigerators from the oldest to the newest.
The fourth way: painting
This variant is also from the handmaid series, it is quite real for execution with your own hands, if you can draw or draw well. You will need an acrylic paint and a brush or an aerosol paint for a stencil painting and in any case a fixing varnish if you do not want the pattern to be washed off after the first diligent washing.
Method five: aerography
One can not even doubt that this method - the leader in the effect and quality of the decor. Aerography allows you to transfer to the surface deep full-color 3D images - for example, volumetric flowers. Of course, such a refrigerator can not remain invisible, and certainly will become the center, the main design element of the interior of the kitchen, so its location is likely to be in the most prominent place.
Method Six: Painting
Painting can be used both for decoration, and simply for updating, improving the appearance of the technique or its greater compliance with certain color preferences of the interior.
Method 7: self-adhesive
film This material is firmly entrenched in the position of the best way to quickly repair furniture or home appliances decor. As in the case of painting, you can simply choose a plain film, and then the process serves to simply update the appearance of the refrigerator, or select a film with a pattern for a greater decorative effect. You can also apply a self-adhesive in two layers: one solid for the background, the second - decorative, has a certain, pre-selected form.
How do I glue the refrigerator with a sticker?
The technique of pasting a surface with a self-adhesive film is the same as for a label on a refrigerator( photo), so this master class will be useful in both cases.
- Do not cut the film directly along the contour. In that case, if you mow down a little during the patching, nothing terrible will happen.
- Before cleaning, thoroughly clean and degrease the surface. If there are paint defects( rust, bubbles), they must be cleaned with a fine sandpaper and treated with a primer on corrosive metals.
- Apply the film best from the middle of the top, gradually removing the protective layer centimeter by centimeter and smoothing to the periphery. To drive bubbles is best with a soft spatula or hard roller. Make sure that no creases appear.
- After complete pasting, cut off excess with a sharp clerical knife. Caution, awkward movement can cause damage to the seal, which will affect the operation of the equipment.
Of course, all these techniques relate not to embedded refrigerators. At those facades completely closed with a furniture door and the finish in this case is more like the finish of a kitchen set, rather than household appliances. Basically, all these methods will suit almost any device - and a modern two-chamber from Eldorado and the old Soviet little Saratov. The main thing when choosing the materials of the finish is to remember that often beside the refrigerator there is a sink and a stove, so it must necessarily be hardy.
