Summer crafts - we decorate the garden with our own hands

Decorative ornaments and country crafts give the garden area an individuality and unique charm. I think it's hard not to agree with the fact that all possible sculptures made by themselves make the dacha lively and intriguing. It's nice when funny peasants look out from the garden with greens, pink roguish pigs hiding in the bushes, a straw man sitting on the fence, and birds circling around the original feeding troughs. With the arrival of darkness along the tracks, self-made lanterns start to burn themselves.

In order to make dacha articles, it is not necessary to be ace, it is enough to put a little imagination, creativity and perseverance. In addition, all their charm lies in the fact that there is no need to buy any special materials. Look around you! Large snags, old stumps, tires, plastic bottles, iron tanks, cracked plastic pots - all this is a wonderful material, from which you can make a lot of interesting things.

Especially popular among gardeners and gardeners are animal figures and good fairy-tale characters. Surely each owner will have a simple piece of plywood, which has been lying around in the attic for years. But you can make exclusive country crafts from it. For example, using a jigsaw to cut figures of storks, geese, cats, dogs and ridiculous farmers. After that they will remain brightly painted with oil paints and everything, the original decor is ready. Select the appropriate location and install it.

If there are stumps in the garden that can not be uprooted, and they spoil the entire aesthetic appearance of your site, do not get discouraged. With the help of an old basin and small jars of paint you can turn it into a cheerful attractive fungus. To do this, we paint the pellet with red paint and put it on the stump, also pre-painted white. For completeness, you can make a ladybug from a plastic bottle and plant it on top of the mushroom cap. Dacha crafts made of plastic bottles deserve special attention and careful study.

From this ordinary and ubiquitous material you can create real masterpieces, but this is not the main thing. Things made from plastic bottles can not only decorate the interior of the garden plot, but also bring tangible benefits. Among the gardeners respected self-made garden vases in the form of piglets, made of five-liter bottles. These summer crafts are used as large decorative pots, in which you can plant bright flowers or medicinal herbs.

However, this is not all the possibilities of plastic containers. They make a funny scarecrow, decorative daffodils, chamomiles, owls, bees, butterflies, and comfortable vases for flowers. Recently, gazebos and verandas built from bottles began to appear in the gardens. A tropical palm tree is very popular. To make it, you need a long bar, as well as 2-liter bottles of green and brown. Cut off each bottle bottoms. Brown string with a neck down the bar, and from the green we cut out the leaves. To do this, divide the bottle in half and, without reaching the neck, we form a strong scissors like a leaf from one side and the other. The resulting top of the palm is passed through the hole in the side of the last brown bottle. It should contain four such green double leaves. Now you can put a palm tree in your dacha and make artifacts in the suburban area with a special southern flavor, complementing the composition.
