How to decorate a country house outside. How to make the cottage cozier inside and out: ideas for home and garden (50 photos). Flowerbeds from various old items

A creative man in the country - expanse! After all, here we can afford everything that we cannot afford in an apartment. It is there that the “decency” of the finish is important for us - but in the country and with paints in your hands you can fool around!

For example, the owner of this dacha painted the silhouette of a cat in the rays of sunset on the wall of the barn. Without his "picture" it would have been just a dull wall of a barn, otherwise a work of art.

You can also draw some picture on the wall of the house, outbuilding or on the fence. And if you don’t know how to draw, you can print a stencil and simply stamp the drawing with a foam sponge. For this you will need acrylic paints.

It is better if these are artistic acrylic paints, which are sold in art stores or in stationery. It is best to cover such a painting on top with acrylic varnish for outdoor use, and even more reliable - with alkyd yacht varnish, which protects even wooden boats from sea water.

If the surface is large, then you can buy acrylic paint for facades at a hardware store and mix in the color scheme of the desired color, which is also sold there. It will be less opaque than art acrylic, but it can also be used.

More options for wall decor in the country

The pallet left after the construction can be used for vertical gardening.

Another of the interesting ideas on how to decorate the wall of the house is to put vegetables on it. Again, double benefit!

Here is another option for home wall decor. The idea was filmed in the Thai border town of Chiang Kong, near Laos.

Boxes with greenery can be placed in a checkerboard pattern next to the wall. A fresh salad will be a nice tasty bonus to this decor.

Dull concrete walls can be made alive. To do this, it is enough to let the climbing plants along the trellises and make a waterfall with a pond.

Even from the inside, the room can be turned into a winter garden.

The creative scarecrow does not frighten, but affably plays the old guitar, sitting surrounded by green plants.

The entrance to the house can be made through a pond, islands-stones will be as a bridge.

In conclusion, I suggest you watch a selection of video ideas on how to decorate the wall of the house and the fence in the country.

Country houses are not usually intended for year-round use, but this does not mean at all that you can neglect the design of the premises. A country house, no matter what style it is decorated in, is characterized by thinner walls and independent heating and water supply systems.

Features of suburban buildings

The modern interior of a country house often resembles the design of city apartments. Today, house designs made of wooden materials are popular, although brick, cinder block and other building materials are no less often used.

The interior of the cottage may depend on the choice:

• wooden walls can be left unfinished, and you get rooms in a rustic style;
• for a country house made of panels, an interior in a modern style with the use of decorative plaster or paint is suitable;
• the interior of a country house made of brick or cinder block requires serious finishing work.

For any country house, you will need to prepare all the surfaces of the walls, ceiling and floor. This is ensured by a full range of rough work, which is the leveling of surfaces, as well as their preparation for the application or installation of finishing materials.

Fireplaces, Russian stoves of a country house

The center of the interior of a country house are many designers or who are gaining popularity again, displacing the gas and electric systems that replaced them not so long ago.

Among the advantages of such heating, experts note:

• stoves and fireplaces look great in the interior of a country house in the living room, kitchen or bedroom;
• they can be decorated in a rustic style or give a modern look to the design;
• a fireplace can be made one of the design elements of a Russian stove for beauty, as well as efficient heating;
• such systems do not require gas or electricity, and fuel is cheap.

For the interior of a country house, a fireplace will be just an ideal option, as it becomes a practical element of the heating system, but also emphasizes the special atmosphere of a country dwelling. This is exactly the detail that the owners of city apartments cannot afford, because in the country the fireplace is very relevant.

Furnishing of premises

What is also typical for a country house is that they usually use old furniture for interior decoration, which is taken out after being replaced with a new one from a city apartment.

This imposes some features of the country interior:

• it represents a mixture of different styles in design;
• often people decorate the interior in the country with their own hands, make home-made furniture;
• the colorful and varied design belongs to the kitsch style, and the soft one is simply called country style.

Beds and homemade furniture

Another feature of the house in the country style is the need to arrange extra beds.

The interior of a country house is approached from the position of practicality in the first place, because the sofas are usually selected folding, with the ability to expand. This is required, since a lot of people periodically gather at the dacha, relatives and friends come for weekends or holidays.

Furniture in a variety of styles will fit into the decor of a country house, and it is acceptable to mix different styles to decorate the interiors of such a house. But wooden furniture looks best in the country, even if these are outdated options and models. It is only very important that the house is cozy and comfortable for everyone who lives in it from time to time, since the atmosphere should relax and help to relax.

Complementing the interior with handmade furniture

In a rustic style, a country interior does not require serious financial investments - this does not make sense, and is not rational.

If there is no old furniture that could be transported from the apartment to the country house, then you can try to make it yourself. Homemade structures in the house are also appropriate, including partitions or verandas.

Well-made furniture does not look good in every style:

• Provence is good for a bright and gentle country house;
• wooden structures look great with country style;
• rustic style allows you to combine any furniture options;
• very bright and unusual loft style for any premises;
• will be bright and free.

A modern interior for a summer residence can be decorated with wooden finishing materials or stone. The loft allows in places not to use finishing materials, since this is a feature of the style.

Planning, its features

On the plan of a small country house there may be only one room combined with a kitchen, and there may also be several rooms that are typical for a classic house for year-round use.

If you plan to regularly receive guests, then you should get a dining room. And if a small number of people are planned to stay at the dacha, then limit yourself to the minimum area.

Allowed to give:

• thin walls and partitions;
• lack of electric or gas heating;
• makeshift staircases and dining on the verandas.

Dachas are usually used in the summer, and therefore there is no need to ensure that the heating is sufficient for living in the winter. Although if you plan to spend winter holidays in the country, then you need to create independent heating.

designer stuff

The interior design of the dacha involves the use of a large number of decorative elements, including decorations from city apartments that have already gone out of fashion.

When a person does not have old things in stock, then an excellent move to decorate the house and revitalize the situation will be:

• flowers or artificial trees in massive tubs;
• light curtains combined with a lot of wood;
• semi-antique lamps or with a minimum of decorations.

Pictures or copies look great at the dachas. However, it is not recommended to store valuable canvases in dachas, because it is such housing that is more susceptible to attacks by thieves and marauders if it remains without owners for a long time. It's good when a country house is located on the territory of a protected village, but this is typical only for suburban villages near big cities. Otherwise, there is a great risk of robbery if the house is decorated with very valuable items.

Private house bathroom

For rustic decor, old-fashioned, outdated cast-iron bathtubs are used, mounted on large legs, often made in the form of animal paws. Often, and this is a great alternative to an outdoor summer shower and a rustic toilet.

If you have or plan to have children, then you should take care of stone or tile flooring. This will allow children to play without fear of getting the floor boards wet, as the wood can rot quite quickly from water and moisture.

Features of the design of the kitchen

The kitchen in a village house can be decorated in both modern and classic style, and wide windows in this room are of great importance - they save on lighting during the daytime, since bright sunlight enters the kitchen through the windows.

In this case, it is necessary to choose a furniture option for the kitchen from materials that are not afraid of not only moisture and pollution, but also direct sunlight. There are usually few lockers in the country kitchen, since the main part of the dishes is usually stored in permanent housing, and only the most necessary is located in the country house.

Bouquets of fresh or, or flowers in pots can freshen up the atmosphere. Still lifes in reality and in paintings also look good. Despite the fact that we are talking about a country country house, you should not give up modern household appliances, which can greatly facilitate the work of cooking and cleaning, so that the rest becomes complete, and household chores do not interfere.

Country houses outside

Country houses are great for spending time in in summer or spring, and garden plantings are usually placed in front of the building. Vegetable gardens with greenhouses are often taken out to the backyard, or even outside the courtyard. If there is space, then it will be relevant to install a pool or a pond with fountains and streams in the courtyard of the country house.

The paths to the house are laid out with decorative bricks or poured with concrete, and unpretentious flowers are planted along them, which do not require regular watering and care.

To facilitate the maintenance of the yard, special lawn grass covers can be used, and lighting can be made with built-in motion sensors.

Cozy country interior for a penny!

background

My sister and I got the idea to buy a small summer cottage when we were 22 and 25 years old respectively. Both of us are fond of decorating and we wanted to bring various interesting ideas to life, as well as to have a place where you can just relax from the bustle of the city and enjoy being close to nature.

The place was not chosen by chance - with a view of the ancient pine forest, on the other side of which our grandparents once lived and with which our happy childhood is associated.

View of the pine forest from the attic

Buying a house

The plots in this SNT are small - only 3 acres, but we were primarily interested not in the garden, but in the house. Therefore, we immediately rejected proposals with plots turned into one continuous bed.

... And, finally, luck smiled at us - according to an ad written by hand, an elderly man responded - his old friend was selling a plot with a house. When we saw him (the house, not the man) - it was love at first sight! A wooden house with an attic and an overgrown garden! We asked for the landlady's phone number and immediately agreed to purchase without haggling the price (and it turned out to be much lower than we expected!). So we became his happy mistresses.

Transformation. Start

The house was made with love, but already very "launched". We wanted to breathe new life into it by making repairs and at the same time not spending large amounts of money. We initially decided that it would be a "budget" repair, and wanted to prove that beautiful and comfortable does not mean expensive.

This is how the house looked at the time of purchase and the start of cleaning: old wallpaper, yellowed from time and smudges of the roof, an old bed and gray chairs:

Spring bed USSR

The wall opposite the bed (let's call this place so that it would be convenient to compare later 😉)

This is what the house looked like from the outside

I will not show even more terrible places on the ceiling - so as not to scare you))

Paragraph 1

So, my sister and I started the repair with cleaning.

They raked out and sorted out the rubbish stored in the shelves and “lockers” - it was old clothes, jars, bottles, bottles, etc. They swept garbage, dirt, dust and, of course, mouse poop everywhere (tying the respiratory organs with handkerchiefs just in case and wearing masks). The rubbish was partially taken to a landfill, something was put on rags, something was sent for washing, something was left for use or decor.

We immediately called this place "tea" - because here, as you can see, there is a small table with a couple of chairs for tea drinking and a gorgeous view from the window (the topmost photo of the post)

Point 2

We washed everything with bleach!

Literally EVERYTHING: floors, walls, ceilings and even furniture.

Point 3

We started painting the old furniture in more “cheerful” colors. For example, it was decided to make the bed white.

The paint used was acrylic. And for painting window frames, they used cheap alkyd enamel.

Bed painting

Chairs - in "lavender"!

The paint emphasized the structure of the tree

Gradually, a kind of "concept" of this mini-room was formed - and we called it "lavender tea room".

I decided to paint one of the doors here like this:

I write in English "lavender tea room"

By the way, we called the main room in the attic "blue bedroom". It was decided to use in it a warm, joyful shade of sky blue and, of course, white for the combination (association with white clouds in the blue sky).

Item 4

Plywood on the ceiling in places of smudges was replaced with a new one

Item 5

They tore off old wallpaper from the walls and some paper from the ceiling. Once again washed the walls with chlorine, dried and started wallpapering.

Wallpaper for the main wall of the bedroom chose white in a blue flower

"Feodosia" - 200 rubles / roll

Blue wallpaper (for combination) - 80 rubles / roll

Wallpaper on the ceiling - free of charge (found the old ones in the barn and pasted them on the wrong side)

View from bedroom to tea room

Rolling into new wallpaper ..

We continue ...

It is not easy to paste over the ceiling - the hands become numb, but then the hand gets stuffed)

In the meantime, the walls in the tea room are covered with the remnants of wallpaper that was kept at home (pink), and the lilac ones were bought for 70 rubles/roll in the store. The cabinet door is painted pink.

I'm in the tea room

Well, you are probably tired of looking at the phone photos of our “flopping” and you want to see what came out of all this?

We specially arranged a “photo shoot” for the resulting interior on the camera:

lavender tea

Tea room

And now the blue bedroom.

The photos are arranged as if we are turning to the right:

blue bedroom

Bedroom

Table by the window

Shelves and suitcase for storing linen (hand-decorated)

Sofa opposite the bed

View from bedroom to tea room

blue bedroom

And from the outside, the house now looks like this (we painted it mint and pink - we tinted it ourselves).

They painted with rollers, using a folding ladder, and leaned out of the windows to paint where the ladder did not reach:

House in autumn

And here we are with my sister Lyalya in the garden near the house. The peony bush has not yet blossomed, but it has already grown - we made it a “holder” from an old chair with a holey seat (which was simply torn off) found in the attic in the village of my grandmother.

My story ends, but the story of the transformation of the house does not. The plans are to "shoulder" the first floor. Be sure to share the result with you!

We are slowly equipping the garden: we dream of a lawn, flowers, a fence and garden furniture.

Thank you all for your attention! We hope that we have inspired at least someone else to create and create))

The best way to attach unnecessary containers and remnants of building materials to the business is to decorate the suburban area with your own hands. Some crafts border on masterpieces; they will decorate not only a quiet courtyard in the shade of a garden, but also make any living space inimitable. Some masters work no worse than artists and designers, performing work in the same style. But even without special skills, it is easy to implement interesting ideas borrowed from the site, if you have the desire and skills to work with simple tools.

Do-it-yourself country decor

Do-it-yourself cottage design

Country rest involves family feasts in the open air, and special attention should be paid to the organization of the dining area. It is best to equip a large "refectory" under a canopy or in a shaded part of the yard. The main decoration of the place for joint lunches and dinners will be a do-it-yourself country tabletop decor.

You can decorate the surface of the dining table in many ways:

• take a cut of a large tree of the original form;
• tighten the filler with a colored cloth and cover with a polymer or varnish;
• fill the base with herbarium elements and close with glass, hermetically processing the edges;
• lay out a mosaic pattern, as in the photo.

Any method is good if there are improvised materials and tools. To make a mosaic countertop, you will need a large sheet of plywood and boards for the frame. You can make the table folding or stationary, but it's easier to transform the finished old furniture. When choosing a mosaic pattern, it is better to rely on your taste and preference. It can be a geometric pattern or a decorative panel on the theme of nature - an aquarium, fruits, sunflowers, firebirds, etc.

Any material of the same thickness is suitable for the pattern - small mosaics, broken glass and pieces of mirror tiles, remnants of tiles and ceramic tiles. If there is an abundance of such material, after the table top in mosaic technique, you can make flower vases or supports for a garden bench.

The plywood sheet is coated with a primer, after drying, the center and areas of drawing are marked. If there is no artistic experience, it is better to use the decor ideas you like for a summer cottage with your own hands or work with simple geometric compositions. Abstraction will help to get away from the need to lay out a recognizable plot.

Unusual design of the cottage

First, the central fragments are performed, then the blank background is laid out. It is advisable to work slowly and carefully, since decorating a garden or a summer house with your own hands is a matter of family pride, these things will last for more than one year.

When the mosaic is completed, it is allowed to dry, after which it remains to fill with grout for tile materials and clean all fragments of the composition with a damp cloth. It is recommended to paint over all parts of the table or dining area in the color that prevails in the pattern of the tabletop.

White garden furniture is always out of competition, regardless of the decor of the summer cottage. Complement your outdoor dining area with a wrought-iron brazier or barbecue, folded by hand.

Fences, hedges and fences with their own hands

The first thing that neighbors in the country see is how the fences are decorated. The gray lopsided boards made of boards are becoming a thing of the past, they are being replaced by original partitions between the plots and zoning elements.

Ordinary chain-link fences between concrete pillars and "euro-fences" are very popular. But this is a big expense, and do-it-yourself decor for a summer house is easy to make in the form of original fences.

If there are children in the family, they will certainly appreciate the picket fence in the form of colored pencils at the dacha. Teenagers can decorate the decorative hedge, this is a great way to spend time together for a common activity.

Another way is to use plastic bottles: fences from waste containers strung on metal rods, thick wire or clothesline. The fence can be one-color, for example, from dark beer plastic bottles or from kvass. By alternating material of different colors, you can get an original pattern in the form of a decorative panel or just a striped fence that complements the decor of a garden plot.

In order for the fence to look aesthetically pleasing, it is important to thoroughly make a frame - to stretch the trellis between the columns. On the finished basis, it is easy to make vertical garlands from plastic bottles of the same format. They can even be treated with spray paints to give the decor in the country more originality.

Original flower beds and sandboxes from stumps

Uprooting old stumps is a very laborious task, it is much easier to turn them into wooden decor for a summer residence. The overgrown tree has taken its place in the landscape, and its roots still penetrate deep into the soil. It's a good idea to hollow out its rotten core to fill it with earth or sand.

Flowerbeds in old stumps are an original and simple site decor. You can sow fragrant low-growing perennials or a climbing plant by placing a support for it next to the stump. If the snag has a good appearance, it is not necessary to paint it or somehow process it, let it be a natural background for plants.

A wide stump with a large internal volume will replace the sand tank. If there is only one child in the family, then such a sandbox will be quite enough for the baby to play. The only wish is to cover the bottom with a tarpaulin so that bark beetles, worms and other invertebrates do not get into the clean sifted sand from the decayed roots.

Another original solution for an old hemp is do-it-yourself decor for a summer house as an element of landscape design. Build a house for the gnome with illumination in the evenings, and this element will be the logical end of the garden alley deep into the garden. A house for a gnome will not require much time and improvised means, and you can buy a fairy-tale character ready-made or make it yourself. The plot can be supplemented by fireflies, frogs, snails, turtles and other characters.

Old stumps can be used for DIY decor in a different way - as coasters for flower pots. This is convenient for hanging petunias, ornamental strawberries and other hanging plants. Between two stumps of the same height, it is convenient to equip a bench or a base for a Hawaiian hammock if the supports are high enough.

Flower beds from old furniture

Used bookcases, beds, armchairs, chairs and stools - an original decor for a summer cottage with your own hands. They are used not only as a stand, but also as the basis for a small flower garden, raised above ground level.

It is a pity to throw away old Viennese rattan chairs with an ornate frame, they will still serve as an original flower bed on a green lawn.

The stepladder will serve as a whatnot if old boards are fixed instead of the crossbars. It is convenient to place flower pots with indoor plants and country decor on them.

Many owners take indoor plants with them to the dacha, they also need to find a worthy place. Unpretentious cacti and succulents feel best. Entire collection compositions will be placed on old furniture. If you want to make the composition more attractive, repaint all the objects in one color.

Old baskets and leaky tubs fit no less organically into the landscape design. For the decor of the site with your own hands, everything that is without a bottom, but with good walls or sides, is suitable.

Original country decor from old vehicles and tires

Trolleys, wheelbarrows, bicycles, parts of retro cars and “bald” tires are the constant decor for giving, which is used by designers and home craftsmen.

A cart without a team, as if lost by its horse, will best transform an unoccupied plot of the estate. Such decor for a country house with your own hands does not require much effort and time. It is enough to find the best place for a cart, on which flowering plants will flaunt all summer. It can be a collection flower garden, where representatives of the same species of different shades flaunt, or a selection is made according to the principle of contrast.

It is advisable to treat old bicycles as a decor from rust with sandpaper, cover with a primer for metal and paint. When the base is ready, the frame is securely fixed so that the bike does not collapse under the weight of the soil in the pots attached to it.

Advice. Old jeans and boots are suitable as containers for planting flower seedlings, but it is better to first fill the soil in garbage bags put in pants.

"Bald" tires are traditionally used as the sides of small flower beds. Whole compositions painted with paint look more attractive. A favorite design technique is cascading flower beds, where the widest rubber is located below, and the smallest base is on top.

Do-it-yourself tire decor for home and garden is another way to attach “bald” tires. There are many ways to carve animals and fairy tale characters from an inverted tire.

Original site lighting

Lamps made from improvised materials are another way to make the useful out of the unnecessary. Small posts along the garden alley can be decorated with lamps made of printed tin cans, where candles or small lamps are inserted. Such decor in the country with your own hands will enliven a party or a romantic dinner in nature.

Pendant lamps with electric bulbs are made from glass bottles. A special technology will help cut off the bottom, which uses the contrast of hot and cold water, where the bottom of the bottle is immersed. With such an amplitude of temperatures, the bottom will be cut off as if under a ruler. It remains to sand the edge and make a garland by inserting small light bulbs into such original shades. It is important that the basis of the electrical wiring is made by a person who understands this. All parts of the garden lighting should be hidden from the rain.

Decorating the walls of a house, another building in the country will make it unique. This will help not only flowers, but also vegetables, buttons, stencils, appliqué.

The content of the article:

If someone thinks that decorating walls is the prerogative of only professional designers, they are mistaken. There are simple ways to decorate a room. If you have a dacha, start by transforming the walls on the hacienda. Making sure that such work is pleasant and uncomplicated, you can decorate the walls in the apartment. Available materials will help with this.

Decoration of the walls in the country with an applique and a figure of tights

You can decorate the building with:

• stencils and paint;
• paintings, panels, which are made by hand;
• vertical gardening;
• applications;
• finishing materials, etc.

See how interesting wall decoration in the country can be.

For it you will need:

• sheets of plastic;
• construction knife;
• marker;
• ruler;
• acrylic paints;
• glue.

On sheets of plastic, draw animals (pig, cow, bird, or others). Also depict the sun, clouds, and, helping yourself with a ruler, a fence. Cut these items with a sharp construction knife, decorate with acrylic paints. Let them dry, and glue some of the elements to the wall, and place others near it. Such wall decor will turn this outer part of the house into a beautiful cozy corner.

Place a figure of a person next to this picturesque picture. How to make a scarecrow, you already know. But such a cute one is created from:

• wires;
• fittings;
• flesh-colored tights;
• a synthetic bag (in such bags flour, sugar are transported and stored);
• synthetic winterizer;
• 3-core cable;
• straw;
• yarn;
• thread;
• fabrics.

Put the bag on the ground, stuff it with straw. Place the reinforcement vertically in its center, sticking one end into the soil. Tie the top of the bag with string. Put on a skirt right away. Tie it at a thin waist.

Wrap the straw on the top of the scarecrow, securing it with a rope, wire. Determine where the shoulders will be. Attach a thick wire here.

For shoulders, arms, take the rest of a three-core cable, which consists of a winding of three thick wires. The desired piece can be easily cut with pliers.

Stuff the pantyhose legs with padding polyester, put them on this cable. In order not to tear the capron, round off its winding, then the wire will not stick out.

So, the lower panels of the tights have become hands, the middle part will be the neck, it is at the top of the armature, like the head. Stuff these parts with synthetic winterizer. Decorate the head - with stitches, a needle and thread, give it the desired shape - oval or round. It remains to embroider facial features with threads or cut them out of colored patches and sew them on. Make hair out of yarn, put a sweater on the figure. Here's how to decorate the exterior wall of a country house.

How to decorate the house with vegetables and flowers?

We offer you an interesting and useful way to decorate the house outside.

Make a bed near the southern, southwestern or southeastern wall, turn it around with a side. Here you need to plant seedlings of tomatoes, climbing pumpkins. Mulch the soil with hay. As you grow, tie the whips higher and higher. To do this, you can drive in a few nails, tie the upper ends of the rope to them, and the lower ends to the lashes.

For a garter, use cellophane tape - they do not rot. Do not forget that the lashes increase in volume, so the loop must be with a margin so as not to overtighten this part of the stem.

Also, a trellis is used for vertical decoration, with your own hands it can be made from improvised materials. After all, many dachas have the remains of a picket fence, rails, bars, wire.

Wall decoration can also be made from other vegetables, such as cucumbers. Near the sunny wall, heat-loving vines will hide from the wind and will grow and develop beautifully.

Here's how to make a DIY trellis quickly and easily. From two long and as many short bars, knock down the box - the base. You need to attach slats to it - either horizontally and vertically, or along one and the second diagonal. In order for the distance between these elements to be the same, either mark up immediately, or lay a piece of board of the desired width, which will show the borders of the stuffing of adjacent rails.

Here's how to make your own trellis. For fastening elements, you can use a furniture stapler, nails or self-tapping screws.

So, for her you need:

• 4 bars;
• slats;
• screws or nails;
• saw or jigsaw;
• hammer or screwdriver.

If you are interested in a simpler version of how to make a do-it-yourself trellis to decorate a wall, cottage, garden, then check it out.

Assemble a lined box from bars, wind a rope or wire around it along one and the second diagonal. If this is a do-it-yourself trellis for grapes, it is better to wind the wire so that it curls over this, more durable material.

Decorating the walls of a country house with such climbing plants will also bring undoubted benefits - closer to autumn, you can enjoy ripe grapes. And if cucumbers are weaving along the trellis, they will bear fruit even earlier - in the summer.

The grapes on the south side of the house will winter well, you can even not remove it from the supports. Decorating the part of the building facing south, on a hot day, he will shade it, and the house will not overheat. This is how the decoration of the walls will give the coveted coolness in the hot summer. And cucumber lashes can bind in such a place, so it is better to place them in the southeast or southwest.

What else you can make trellis photos clearly show. You can place them not close, but at some distance from the wall of the building.

On the left photo - single trellises are attached with wire, and to the ground - with metal studs. For a double support, a base is made of bars. On the right - a diagram is given that tells how to make a trellis for cucumbers.

If you have little space, make an ergonomic bed, and tie the whips to the armature that connects the 2 bicycle wheels - one lies on the ground, the other is fixed on the upper sides of the armature.

From an old umbrella without fabric, an excellent trellis for bush cucumbers is obtained.

Not only vegetables, but also flowers will decorate the walls. Plant climbers near the building, and let them trail along the trellis.

See how even such simple flower supports decorate outdoor walls.

From the remnants of lumber, you can also make such trellises for flowers, in order to then place them near the house.

How to make a stencil for colorful painting?

If you have artistic inclinations, wall decoration can be like this.

If in doubt whether you will succeed, then use stencils. They are very easy to work with.

After learning how to make a stencil, you can draw it or print it, cut it out, and you will have a ready-made template.

Applying such birds to the wall, paint over it. When you remove the template, you will see that a bird has appeared under it. Paint it and watch the white dove soar up. If the wall was painted before, then the bird does not need to be shaded.

In the same way, draw a couple of birds. To do this, enlarge the presented stencil. With your own hands, it is fascinating to redraw its outlines on a white sheet, and then cut along the contours, which you will do.

See how the stencil is attached to the wall with your own hands. To create such a pattern you will need:

• dye;
• stencil;
• stationery knife;
• construction tape;
