Vase from one and a half do-it-yourself. Beautiful decorative elements from simple things - a vase from a pipe with your own hands. DIY plastic bottle vase: video

If you recently made repairs at home, then there is always a bunch of unnecessary garbage and our advice: do not rush to throw it into the garbage chute, in this pile you can always stumble upon objects that will be useful in inventing fakes - these can be various design details and various decorations for your home. Most often, unnecessary items are the remaining pipes that no one needs, from which you can invent a beautiful designer vase. There are several methods for reproducing our vase.

So, first consider the types of vases made of plastic pipes.

Mounting

We will decorate with the help of unnecessary nylon stockings.


But before using the stockings, we will get acquainted with the creation of the silhouette of a vase using plastic pipes. It would be great if these pipes were designed for sewerage. They fit perfectly in shape and material.

Now let's move on to the manual, which will describe the sequence of work and actions:

Composite decoration for a vase

The sequence of actions is practically no different from the first version of the creation of the invention, but there is still a slight difference and it lies in the fact that the methods of decoration are different.

Now let's move on to the very process of inventing a vase using this method:

  1. We put on the pipes, which we also prepare, as in the first version, hosiery on both sides so that a small empty gap remains in the middle of the pipe.
  2. We apply a small amount of PVA glue to this empty gap so that it is smeared over the entire area.
  3. Now we pour cereals of any type on this smeared gap, depending on your imagination.
  4. Let's wait until the glue hardens, and attach the pipe sections to each other and paint them in different colors, depending on your wishes.

At this stage, we finish making a vase using cereals.

Making a vase from a metal alloy pipe

If you still have an unnecessary metal pipe, whose edges are cut evenly, then it will come in handy for creating our crafts. If the pipe has an edge, then it is perfect for us because you do not need to create a stand for the vase, it will be ready right away.

Using this type of pipe, we will get acquainted with the technique of its creation through the following steps:

  1. To begin with, we will take a roll of ordinary cheap toilet paper and glue our pipe in a circle so that there are no empty gaps. Small wrinkles are allowed.
  2. Now we need black paint, and with it we paint the pipe in two layers, to give it a natural look.
  3. Next, take the powder with the effect of the powder and apply it with gentle movements over the black paint.
  4. For special beauty, you can decorate a vase with beads or beads.
  5. With the help of mounting foam, we create the bottom of our product. We make it this way: we put the craft on a plastic stand and we put the stream of foam in a vertical position. After waiting until the foam dries, it is allowed to paint the bottom with spray paint of any color.

Take note! We can embellish the edges of our beautiful vase with a welding device by welding them a little. The result is beautiful metallic lace.

I hope you understand that it will not be possible to place fresh flowers in this type of vase in the way that they require water, and it will not work to pour it into such a craft, but do not be discouraged, it is perfect for placing dry or inanimate flowers of various varieties in it. In it, they will look aesthetically pleasing and tasteful.

Making a vase from a cardboard product


If during the repair you ordered the right amount of linoleum to your home, then we note that a cardboard tube is placed inside each such roll so that it does not wrinkle and disperse. But for the end result,

you just need to show a little of your imagination.

Today, only lazy people do not improve the design of their home. Fashion trends allow satisfying the most sophisticated tastes of demanding consumers. At the same time, at all times there was a demand for decorating the interior with high floor vases. However, their affordability does not always coincide with the desired appearance.

The first stage: we form the basis.
We turn one jar upside down and glue “liquid nails” to it a tea saucer turned upside down.

Glue the bottom of the second can to the bottom of the same can.


Cut off the bottom of the canning container. We glue the inverted container to the neck of the second jar.


Let the base dry for 1 day.


The second stage: we give the vase the outline of the vessel.
Finely chop the egg racks.


Fill with water so that the entire torn mass is immersed in it. We leave for the night.


We wring out the soaked grids.


Tear off large pieces. Fill the whole mass with PVA glue.


Thoroughly, until a homogeneous gruel is obtained, mix the soaked grates.


We fill the space between the neck of the jar and the container with the egg mass.


Apply a thin layer of egg mass over the entire surface of the jars.


We dry the base for 2 days.


We paint white.


The third stage: we apply a three-dimensional drawing.
Print your favorite stencil.


We make cuts along the contours, cut out the necessary points.



We place the drawing on the vessel in a checkerboard pattern in a straight and inverted form (2 times above, 2 times below; top and bottom facing each other).



Draw voids and cuts with a pencil.



Squeeze silicone sealant into an empty PVA tube.


We put a sharp nose on the tube and squeeze the sealant along the contour of the picture.


If necessary, make adjustments with a toothpick.



Dry the sealant for 1 day.


With superficial movements with a large brush, we apply blush toning on the drawing.



Fourth step: make a silicone mold.
Mix potato starch and silicone sealant.



Thoroughly knead until a pasty mass is obtained.


We coat the surface of the figure blank (in this case, a magnet) with Vaseline.


Press the pastry into the flattened dough with the right side down.



Carefully prying with a knife, we take out the workpiece.


Fifth stage: casting the figures.
Lubricate the inside of the silicone mold with vegetable oil (pour it in, then turn the mold over and pour out the oil).


Pour a tablespoon of alabaster (or gypsum) into the container.


Add a spoonful of water there, mix. If the solution becomes thick, add water.


We fill the silicone mold with alabaster solution.



We leave the solution to harden (you can check the readiness by pressing the nail on the figure - the trace should not remain on the surface). We pry the figure with a knife and take it out of the mold.


We repeat the preparation of the solution and pouring 3 more times.


Sixth stage: paint the angels.
We paint over the blanks with white gouache.


The bodies of the angels are matted with face powder.


We dye our hair.


We draw sponges.


Draw the eyelids and eyebrows with a pen.


With white gouache we close the extra layer of powder (next to the bodies of the angels).


Draw the wings in gold.


We apply “liquid nails” on the back surface of the figurines and glue them on the vase.



Step 7: Make roses.
We knead the plasticine, lay it on a hard surface with a thin plate, cut it into squares. In each square we make cuts in a circle from the center.



Gently prying the central center, twist the spiral, moving from the center to the edge. We bend the square corners like large leaves.



We paint the roses white.


We tint them with blush in the color of the volumetric pattern.


The edges are gilded.


"Liquid nails" fasten the roses to the vase.


A large floor vase adds zest to the interior, the room looks more interesting. It's even better when this vase is made by hand.

The variety of models is amazing, but one thing unites them - they are made from simple improvised materials. Anyone can make such a vase.

DIY floor vase: features

As a rule, floor vases are heavy and large. The heavier the vase, the more difficult it is to tip over and break. Therefore, if the floor vase is made with your own hands and turned out to be light, you can pour heavy stones into it. Perfect for pebbles.

Be patient, because this work is not fast, even if you decide to make the simplest model of a floor vase with your own hands, simply by decorating it. Be prepared for the fact that the product is large, it will take time to place the rhinestones and sequins in their places. Not to mention the complex elements.

Do-it-yourself floor vase: materials and methods

From the basic materials you will need scissors, glue, a vase mold and those details or substances with which you can decorate the vase.

Cardboard vase

An interesting solution was to make a vase out of cardboard. This is the most budgetary and very convenient option, because the vase can be given a variety of shapes and sizes.

Think about the size and volume of your vase. Cut out the sides of the cardboard box and tape them together. Treat the upper cut at the neck with plain, colored or paper tape so that the edge does not fluff.

Glue the vase with decorative elements. In this case, these are small pebbles planted on glue tightly to each other. One disadvantage of such a vase is that you will have to decorate the cardboard with a dense canvas without gaps. And if you suddenly decide to leave gaps, then they need to be painted over. It is impossible to prevent guests from suspecting that this is a budget version of a vase. Therefore, the cardboard should not be visible in any way.

Don't stop at just decorating a vase. Decorate it further. For example, stick dotted small and large rhinestones.

Metal-painted vase

An interesting solution was a vase painted in metallic color and aged. To work, you will need a form for a vase, small figures, details, buttons, laces, glue and paint. If you want to get the effect of an aged thing, then the paint should be of two colors of a dark and light shade that combine with each other. For example, if these are warm shades of metal, then the colors should be dark metallic and gold for an aged effect. If you have chosen cool shades, then the colors range from metallic gray to silver.

As a form for a vase, an elongated square cardboard box or a pipe from linoleum is suitable. In the second case, the vase will turn out to be round and elongated.

Treat the top edge of the vase by gluing a protruding strip, or just wrap it with tape. Paste the form with prepared small details, grouping them with a dense cover or patches, combining them with large figures.

Wait for the glue to dry before you can start painting. First apply dark paint, preferably in two layers, so that extraneous shades do not shine through. If you decide that the craft should be aged, then use a large brush with dotted strokes of light paint only over the protruding parts, creating a worn effect.

If you want the vase to be plain, then after staining you can varnish the surface. And if the vase is aged, then in this case it is not necessary to varnish, otherwise the desired effect will not work.

Take your time and wait for the vase to dry, it can take about a day.

Floor vase decorated with threads

You will need a large container. Also, for a form that can be decorated, a pipe from linoleum is suitable. Also stock up on threads, glue and small elements that you want to finish the composition with. For the pattern, the same thread glued over the general background, as well as buttons, rhinestones, or even voluminous flowers from threads, can be suitable. This is what a vase decorated with three-dimensional flowers will look like.

How to make such flowers will be described below, but first make the vase itself. To do this, coat the finished vessel with glue and wrap tightly with a thread. It must be applied in one layer. Let the vase dry.

If you want to decorate a vase with flowers, then they need to be made separately, and then fixed on the vase. There are two color options, these are the ones shown above and from the floss on the spring.

To make the same flowers as in the picture above, you will need a bottle, cling film, glue and thread. Put cling film on the bottle and on the film across the bottle, start making one petal for the flower. Fold the shape of an elongated drop from a piece of thread. Spread glue on the next piece of thread, a little more than the previous one, and wrap the first drop around the outer edge, repeating the shape and firmly pressing the layers of thread. You will get a drop, which with each layer of thread will become more and more.

Continue until you feel that this petal size is sufficient. Wait for the craft to dry and peel it off the bottle. You have only one petal in a curved shape following the shape of the bottle. And for a whole flower you need 4 or 5 petals. Do the same until you get the required amount.

Glue the petals to the vase and plant a large rhinestone or bright button in the center, the flower is ready. Do not stop there, make a magnificent pattern consisting of several elements.

Now consider the option of a multi-colored flower made of floss threads and springs. To do this, you will need threads of a beautiful color, a long wire, a pen and a rhinestone, either a bead or a button for the center of the flower.

Wrap the wire about 6-7 cm around the handle, you will get a spring. Connect the edges, you get the shape of a drop. Starting from the bottom, pass the thread from one end of the spring to the opposite end, rising to the top of the petal. Follow the same thread path back to the base. The petal is ready. For a whole flower, they will need 4 or 5, at your discretion. Fix the flower on a vase, glue a rhinestone or a button or a bead in the center.

Choose eco-friendly materials for a vase that will stand in a living room. You should not risk your health and put materials in the house that release toxic compounds into the air.

Be patient, because to make a beautiful vase means to make a complex product. Before getting its final appearance, the vase goes through several stages: cleaning, decorating and in some cases painting.

Choose a color scheme and material for decorating a vase that fully matches the style of the room in which you plan to put the finished floor vase. Otherwise, a feeling of disappointment may arise, and all the work will go down the drain.

At the same time, at all times there was a demand for decorating the interior with high floor vases. However, their affordability does not always coincide with the desired appearance.

Eighth stage:

A vase with your own hands can be an excellent interior decoration and a good gift. Large vases are used as interior decor, creating a special mood in the room and emphasizing the overall style. Small and neat vases of different shades and textures will be a nice decoration for a table, shelf, chest of drawers. Vases can be supplemented with fresh flowers, dry herbs, branches. What vases you can decorate your home with and how to make them with your own hands, we will tell in the article.

From different materials

Creating a harmonious interior is a very important point in the decoration of each home. In any room, the walls should be combined with the floor and with the furniture, creating an overall interior style. Small details - pillows, floor vases, lamps, candlesticks, books - complement the interior, making the house cozy. It is important not only the combination of colors, but also shapes, textures, materials. Tall vases visually stretch the space. Large and narrow vases on the floor "raise" the ceilings.

It must be remembered that disproportionate to the living space, too voluminous and massive vases, on the contrary, hide the area and "weight" the interior.

Glass and transparent vases are best filled with something or painted on the outside, so they will not be lost against the background of the rest of the interior. Colored and textured vases will add a touch of variety and set off plain walls. Clay and embossed flowerpots will give the interior an “antiquity” style.

Vases can be made both from natural material and from used items and things (bottles, cans, various cardboard and plastic packaging). You can also give a "new life" to old vases that do not fit into the new interior. It is worth stocking up on paint, brushes, stencils, a glue gun, twine, accessories and showing a little imagination.

Practical people who like to use even unnecessary items for good use will need a master class on a vase from a plastic bottle. With your own hands, you can create a beautiful interior item from such a simple material.

First you need to prepare the following materials and tools:

  • plastic bottle;
  • a soldering iron or a hot nail fixed on a wooden base;
  • paint (preferably in a spray can);
  • newspapers;
  • marker.

Working process:

  1. Apply an abstract pattern to the surface of the bottle with a marker;
  1. With a heated soldering iron or a nail, make holes according to the intended pattern (you should get an openwork mesh, it is better not to burn holes close to each other);
  1. Burn the bottle in a circle (you can make uneven edges) and remove the unnecessary upper part;

  1. Having spread newspapers or other unnecessary material, paint a vase from a spray can;

  1. Let the paint dry.

Such a vase can be used for its intended purpose - to put flowers in it. For greater stability and aesthetics, it is better to choose bottles with a straight, rather than a embossed bottom. From above, the vase can be decorated with ribbons, beads and other materials.

Another option is to glue the bottle with cardboard tubes. Get a stylish vase.

It is necessary to prepare:

  • plastic bottle (volume not less than 1 liter);
  • cardboard narrow tubes the length of a bottle or more;
  • double-sided tape (wide);
  • scissors;
  • laces or ribbons for decoration.

Note. Tubes from paper or cling film are well suited. It will take about 20 pieces.

Working process:

  1. Cut off the neck of the bottle so that the total height of the bottle is slightly less than the length of the tubes;
  1. Paste the bottle in a circle with adhesive tape in 2-3 places;

  1. Glue the tubes in a circle to the adhesive tape;

  1. Decorate the resulting vase with laces or ribbons (you can also paint the tubes with paint).

It is easy to paint a plastic bottle with acrylic paints. You can get very pretty vases.

Any jar or bottle made of glass or plastic will be transformed by paper decorations. The vessel can be pasted over with paper strips or quilling elements, as well as “dressed” in wrapping, colored or lace paper.

From thin paper pages (for example, newspapers) you can weave a decorative vase.

You will need paper long tubes, glue, paint or stain and varnish for wooden surfaces.

You need to start weaving from the bottom, guided by the scheme. For convenience, the tubes can be pre-glued so as not to be glued on the product itself. Upon completion of the work, the vase should be painted and varnished.

An interesting vase will turn out from cardboard and paper strips. You will need:

  • cardboard tube (available at a hardware store);
  • cardboard;
  • PVA glue;
  • scissors;
  • drywall knife;
  • old newspapers or magazines;
  • spray paint;
  • beads or beans, peas;

Working process:

  1. Cut a piece of pipe of the desired length with a knife (you can pre-mark the line);

  1. Cut a cardboard circle along the diameter of the pipe and glue the bottom;
  1. Make many stripes from newspapers and magazines and twist them into tight spirals according to the quilling principle;

  1. Glue the spirals to the pipe, trying to occupy all the space;

  1. Fill the gaps between the spirals with peas or beads (glue);

  1. Paint a vase from a spray can;

  1. To “age” a vase, apply dark paint in a thick layer and, without waiting for it to dry, remove excess paint with a rag or sponge (the paint should remain in the slots of the spirals);

  1. If desired, also "gild" the vase;

  1. Coat with two coats of varnish and leave to dry completely.

The result was an original vase in ethnic style.

From a jar of almost any size, you can get an interesting vase. It is convenient to paint glass with acrylic paints with a brush or using a stencil. The jar can be decorated with fabric, ribbons, paper, stickers, twine. In addition to glass jars, tin cans from coffee, as well as cardboard ones, for example, from chips, are also suitable as a vase.

Interesting vases can be made from food, such as pasta or zucchini. For a “pasta” vase, it is enough to choose the appropriate form of pasta (shells, flowers, tubules) and paste them over any vessel suitable for the role of a vase. Better to use a glue gun. At the end of the work, paint the vase with paint, for example, golden.

A vase of zucchini or pumpkin requires some skill in artistic cutting. However, everyone can try to cut a simple pattern. The main thing is not to overdo it, so as not to cut through the zucchini.
