"I saw a lot of MK on creating waterfalls from glue. As usual, I took a little from each and created such a decoration for the house."
We need:
- PVA glue ( better professional, but a builder is also possible)
- glue TITAN WILD
- dry pharmacy herb (I like the string or nettles the most, they green color give)
- seashells, pebbles, barbecue stick
- all kinds of "decorators" - grass, turtle, small colored stones.
- A lot of patience and nerves (later I'll tell you where they are really needed)
Description of making a waterfall
First of all, we "cast" the stand from plaster. Pour gypsum, diluted with water to the consistency of thick sour cream, into the vending plastic box. If you are afraid that it will not stick well, the form can be greased with a small amount of vegetable oil. After complete drying, paint with acrylic paint. True, then I did not like the dark bottom and I partially scraped off the paint under the bottom of the reservoir.
Next, I'll explain a little about my actions. I tried to fasten the wall of the fountain itself with putty, glue, gypsum-glue mixture ... I did not like the result, and in any case, the seams between the stones then need to be decorated with something.
I decided to try my favorite mixture of dry grass with PVA glue. It turned out very similar to moss and the pebbles were perfectly fastened together. Here I stopped at it. I simply mixed a small amount of glue with dry nettles and cemented the wall with this mixture. Moreover, she was not upset if during the construction process neighboring stones got dirty, while moss grows everywhere. The shells were embedded directly into the wall, although it could have been glued later.
On the same mixture, she laid out pebbles along the edge of the reservoir.
After finishing the construction of the wall, pour a small amount of Titanium on the bottom, sprinkle it with sand or multi-colored small pebbles, plant grass, decorators.
Now we arm ourselves with a barbecue stick and great patience. We take Titanium and begin to quietly pour it into the upper shells. We remember how it flows so that later the waterfall looks natural. You pour, pour, the glue flows down, filling the reservoir and the shells of the cascade.
If you stop pouring, the trickles of the waterfall "run away" safely. Wrap the glue on a stick in a pond or horizontal shells, pull it up and attach it to the place where the trickle should flow from. She runs away, we pull again ... Then a thin stream freezes, we continue to apply layers of glue on it until we get the desired result.
We wait until it dries up, pour it into the tanks, since the glue shrinks when it dries.
In short, for several days we conjure with glue, a stick and our nerves. The more patient and leisurely you are, the more beautiful the result will be. The bubbles form on their own during the drying process.
Table waterfall or a floating cup will become a decor for an aquarium or room. On the garden plot, you can make a waterfall in the country.
The content of the article:
The waterfall allows you to turn the corner of the apartment or suburban area into natural. It's nice to watch how the man-made stream runs, to listen to its murmur. If you do not have a summer cottage, but you have an aquarium, then knowledge regarding how to make a waterfall in it will be useful to you. Anyone who has their own hacienda can still first practice creating a small device, and then make a waterfall in the country.
Decorative waterfall for aquarium
It is not for nothing that this subtitle has such a name, because a home stream is a worthy decoration for an aquarium.
Look at the principle of such a waterfall. As you can see, it consists of simple items. Due to the circulation of transparent and fine white sand that drives the compressor creates a very interesting effect.
To make such a decor for an aquarium with your own hands, you will need:
- plastic bottle - volume 1.5 liters;
- dropper;
- plastic bottle - volume 0.5 liters;
- silicone sealant;
- plastic water pipe diameter 370 mm;
- water supply rubber hose, diameter 120–300 mm;
- narrow tape;
- compressor;
Use sealant to glue the hose to the tube. Step 3 cm from the bottom of the hose, do here sharp knife an incision 2 cm deep, 1 cm wide oval.
It was the turn of a 1.5 liter bottle. Cut off the threaded throat from it, then next part just below the shoulders. You have a kind of bowl. Put it on the rubber tube, securing it at the incision.
Next, you need to bend 3 ends of the plastic water pipe, fix them in this position with scotch tape, winding it up.
Now you need to well glue the joint between the hoses and the bowl with a sealant, then step back from work, wait for the solution to dry completely. After that, you can proceed to the next stage. At the top of the hose, make an oval diagonal cut that is 2.5 cm deep and 1 cm wide.
Glue the plastic drip tip to the bottom of the tube, you need to be patient and wait for the solution to dry completely.
Only then can the dropper tube be put on the plastic tip, and the other end of the tube must be connected to the compressor.
At this stage, you need to check if everything is working correctly by turning on the compressor. If you are satisfied, we continue to create. To make a visor cover, you need to cut off the top plastic bottle volume of 500 ml, remove the neck with a knife. You should have a funnel that is 3 cm high.
Make a cut on the side of it, attach this element to the top with sealant and narrow tape.
Please note that the visor from a small plastic bottle should not cover the upper section of the hose; air bubbles will subsequently escape through this hole.
It remains to decorate the waterfall by attaching pebbles to it with a sealant. Here's what you get.
To make a lasting impression on your aquarium decor in the form of flowing sand, you can purchase colored artificial sand. If this did not succeed, choose a regular one such that it is not too small or large. In the first case, it will become too sprayed in different sides and in the second, grains of sand can create a traffic jam and make it difficult for the waterfall to work.
Small stone stream with your own hands at home
Check out another way to make a waterfall. So it can turn out as a result.
To do this, you need to acquire the following:
- small stones;
- sand;
- a platform, which may well be a cover from a small plastic bucket and even from a jar of herring, a plastic saucer;
- tile glue;
- liquid nails "Fix All" or Titanium glue;
- a small decorative jug;
- knitting needle;
- tile glue.
It is not necessary to buy stones, if you go for a walk with a non-snowy season, watch your step. Sometimes very beautiful specimens can be found near the road, paths. After you come home, wash them well, lay them out on a towel to dry, and at this time do another stage of the work yourself.
Apply glue to the lid, sprinkle it with sand so that it sticks here. At the same time, it is necessary to arrange this not only upper part cover, but also its rim.
If you use, for example, a plastic saucer, then you do not need to cover its sides. Carry glue on top of the sand, attach pebbles here. From those that are larger, make a semblance of a rock. Place a small decorative pitcher on top, attaching it in the same way.
Let the tile glue dry, then pour Titan glue here. Pour it into a jug too, wait 10 minutes. This is necessary for him to "grab". By winding its solidifying fibers around the knitting needle, give the waterfall the desired shape.
If you are using liquid nails, then first cut the water template out of paper, then cover it with this mass, wait until it dries. Then you can attach the falling water to the top of the work.
It seems as if it is really water, and air bubbles give the work more credibility.
If you brought shells from the sea, then use those for your craft. See how you need to place them, where to attach the artificial greenery. Liquid nails or glue will give the impression of falling water.
If you don't have sand, then make the foot of the waterfall with clear blue water. Place the cut out piece of oilcloth or other rubberized material of this color on the selected round container. Fill the top with glue, which will soon create the effect of an exotic lake.
If you want to make a rock for a waterfall, then take for this:
- polyurethane foam;
- sharp construction knife;
- acrylic paints;
- glue Titanium;
- sand.
Now paint it with light brown paints, leaving free space where the jets will flow. Fill these places with blue paint. Glue the sand to some areas of the rock after the paint has dried. When the glue is completely dry, then you need to make falling water from liquid nails or Titan, and another tabletop waterfall is ready.
Place a gold one next to it to create a nautical-themed corner in the house.
If you have suburban area, then there will certainly be a place to create a waterfall. Here you can have a great rest, enjoy the murmur of a man-made stream.
How to make a waterfall in the country?
Step-by-step instructions and photo illustrations for it will help you understand the principle of its device. The list of necessary items will facilitate the task of self-selection of information. For this to work, use:
- sand;
- pebbles;
- quartzite;
- cement;
- grain screening;
- PVC film or fiberglass;
- reinforcing mesh;
- water pump;
- rubber hose.
Now you can pick up a shovel and dig a pit. But since you will be making a waterfall in the country, you need to build a hill. You will create it from the dug earth. To strengthen this slide and create a cascade, design it as the gallant altruists do in the photo.
Make a pit that is deep enough. If you want to subsequently breed fish there, then it should not be less than a meter so that the water does not freeze in winter.
When constructing a deepening, keep in mind that it will need to be covered with 10 centimeters of sand. It is spilled, tamped. Now you can lay the waterproofing from the material of your choice on top.
The film should be enough so that it goes well onto the banks. Press it down here with stones. When digging a pit, you need to make another small indentation where you put the plastic pipe.
If you want the bottom of the waterfall to be a strong film that does not tear, then place a reinforcing mesh here, put a concrete solution 12-15 cm high on top. Let the lake bowl dry properly.
Now look at how the water system will work.
As you can see, there is a pump at the bottom, the cable and hose are brought to the surface. The cable will be connected to the network, the hose will need to be laid between the stones of the slide so that the water can rise, then drain down.
To do this, lay flat sandstone, pebbles in the form of a slide. This is what a beautiful cascading waterfall is.
If you do not want to lay a film on the bottom of the trench, concreting the bowl, then use a ready-made container for ponds.
But first, you also have to dig a ditch, then put a bowl here, close the junction of the reservoir with the soil outside with the excavated earth, in order to close the boundaries of the lake.
Also place a pump here, bring a hose to it, the upper edge of which needs to be raised to a sufficient height, draped with stones to make a waterfall. You can put a garden fountain, you get a very cute pond.
Can be put here aquatic plants in plastic pots... If you want, turn this place into alpine slide, combining stones with unpretentious mountain vegetation, then the principle of creation can be the same as in the next photo.
The following diagram will certainly be useful to you, where it is indicated in detail what an artificial waterfall consists of.
Do-it-yourself floating cup
If Previous work seemed difficult to you, see how to make a waterfall so that it is in the apartment. Moreover, looking at some samples, you will see not only flowing water, but also soaring flowers and even mouth-watering chocolate-coffee icing that will pour out of the container onto a piece of cake.
Let's continue the topic we started, let's see how a floating cup is created with our own hands, from which an inexhaustible stream of water seems to flow.
To create such beauty, you will need:
- plate;
- transparent plastic bottle;
- Cup;
- glue Titanium;
- scissors.
Now, in turn, bring these parts to the burner flame to give this interesting shape... Flat petals should remain above and below, which will then need to be glued to the cup and plate.
To do this, generously grease the half of the bottle with Titanium glue, glue it to the inside of the cup. Shape the other half of the plastic bottle in the same way, glue it to the outside of the cup.
Now you need to fix the workpiece with the help of auxiliary objects in the desired position so that it dries completely within two days. Here's what happens.
Now you need to cover the blanks from plastic bottles with Titanium glue again. It is better to leave it in the air for 10 minutes first, let it become a little thicker. But if there is still a lot of glue in the bubble, then it's a pity to leave it dry like this. In this case, you will need to pour Titanium onto the top of the plastic bottle, and what flows down, lift it up again with a spatula.
If you want water with blue tint, add a little dye of this color to the glue.
Until the solution is completely dry, line the plate with shells, colored pebbles. In the same way, you can decorate the cup itself to get such a homemade artificial waterfall.
Not only water can fall from such a container, let flowers, as it were, pour out of it.
So that you can put this waterfall on your desktop, admire it, take:
- a coffee pair consisting of a saucer and a cup;
- glue gun;
- thick wire in the winding, segment length 20 cm;
- scissors;
- pliers;
- artificial flowers;
- for decoration: butterfly, beads, beads.
From artificial plants their flowering part is cut off, starting from the bottom of the cup, glue them here first.
Next, we decorate all the wire and the saucer. You can glue some embellishments here if you like.
If you want coffee to smell delicious at home, use the grains of this tree for this. But first, it is better to decorate the mug and cup with a jute rope, gluing it to these objects in a spiral.
Also connect the coffee pair with the thick wire wrapped around it, then glue the coffee beans here. Also, cinnamon sticks will be appropriate here, with which such a fragrant artificial waterfall is decorated.
Let's develop such a tasty topic further. After all, this active stream can fall down, creating a chocolate cake. The first stages of work are similar to the previous master class, so we will not list them again. But the creation of a small cake can be done in more detail.
For it, you need styrofoam, insulation, or something similar. Put a cup shape here, cut out equal circles. To get a bevel, as if they had already started eating the cake, they took a piece with a spoon, in each you need to cut holes, alternating them in size.
Put the blanks in a pile, if the cut is uneven, fix it at this stage.
The sweetness consists of alternating soufflé and chocolate cakes, to show this, paint the edges of the white blanks with black acrylic paint.
Glue the layers together. Then this cake can be covered with putty, sandpaper or glue a napkin to it. Then the paint will not be absorbed into the porous structure of the material and will lie flat. Apply dark acrylic paint to the sweetness.
Now the second end of the wire that holds the cup together, you need to stick it into the cake, bend it with back side in the form of a loop. To hide this auxiliary attribute, make a notch on the back of the cake, you will put a piece of wire there.
The cake will be even more appetizing if you cover it with a layer of acrylic lacquer and sprinkle with coconut on top. If you want the plate to be decorated like in a restaurant, then draw brown acrylic paints into a syringe, apply a line of strokes. Glue the bottom of the wire that is under the cake to this plate.
Attach the bottom of the cake to this dish in the same way. Now, using a glue gun or glue, Titan needs to be glued to the flowing waterfall of coffee beans. If you are using a glue gun, be very careful as the silicone escaping from it is hot.
To make under construction chocolate icing, dilute one to one acrylic varnish and brown acrylic paint. Cover the spaces between the coffee beans and themselves with this substance. When all this dries up, you can admire the results of the wonderful work.
Here's how much fun you can do about a waterfall. If you want to make it in the country, then watch the video tutorial. From it you will learn some of the subtleties of the process, for example, you will learn how to glue flat stones.
The second plot is useful for those who do not have personal plot but there is a desire to make a waterfall.
The third will reveal the secret regarding how to make a floating cup with your own hands.
Materials and tools:
Polyurethane foam (any)
Glue "Titan"
Wood putty.
Acrylic paints.
"Fix All" liquid nails (Cristal)
Toothpicks
Brush
Acrylic paints
Acrylate wood varnish
Small decorative stones.
Film
Gloves
Stationery (or any convenient) knife.
Plastic covers for notebooks.
I adore waterfalls and try to look at them and draw, but here I really wanted a home waterfall. But not the one where the water is pouring (this kind of annoying for some reason ...), but the most ordinary one.
I tried to photograph and describe the process of creating a home waterfall.
Take polyurethane foam (I took the most common one in a can for 100 rubles).
Lay an oilcloth or film on the work surface. Be sure to wear gloves
(rubber or medical), because the foam is very sticky to hands and is difficult to clean. Foam a few "slides" on the film, sprinkle the "slides" with a sprinkler for flowers, so that the foam "grabs" faster. Wait until the top of the "slide" dries up, remove it from the film (the bottom is still not dry) and put the slides on top of each other, how do you see your big mountain... Since the bottom has not yet dried out, the slides "sit" on top of each other and immediately stick together.
Give the foam a day to "grab".
Cut out the base of the mountain from the resulting mass - cut off the excess from the sides with a knife, cut through the caves and recesses.
Treat all surfaces and joints with putty. Let dry for 24 hours.
Paint the slide, walls and "bottom" of the waterfall first with dark brown, then light brown paint. Allow the paint to dry.
Spread the surface of the mountain with Titan glue, sprinkle the glue with small decorative stones. Cover by acrylic varnish... Dry within 24 hours.
Paint the "bottom" of the waterfall and the places where the "water" runs off with blue and white paints.
To simulate flowing water, the following was tested:
1. Liquid nails "Moment" Installation transparent ..
The photo shows "transparency", yeah. just as they were opaque white, they remained so even after two days ..
2. AXTON liquid nails are transparent. I didn’t like it, in the first place, a very pungent, poisonous smell (as if a lot - a lot of vinegar was mixed with something). So also "waterfalls" are obtained unclear and ugly, edged.
3. Liquid nails "Fix-All soludal, Crystal / You can try others, but for the word Crystal to be present .. Nails are expensive (we have 370 rubles, but when the urge to do it, it's already unbearable ..)
Take a napkin and make a "stencil" blank of the required length.
I bought a regular notebook cover for the imitation water backing. It is transparent with blueness and it turned out to be it.
Having prepared the stencils, put the cover on them.
Take liquid nails and "draw" them on the stencil strips, close to each other. With a toothpick, smooth the surface of the strips with a zigzag line
Leave to dry. But it is better to leave it dry like this. so that the dried nails take the desired shape. Cut the film along the contour of the waterfall, pierce the film with a toothpick at the beginning of the "waterfall" and attach it to a convenient, convex surface.
After giving time to dry the "flowing water" and using the same nails to coat the grooves in the "mountain" and attach the blanks with a toothpick. Correct the "waterfalls" by adding strips of liquid nails, simulating the effect of running down water.
Paint the surface of the waterfall with an almost dry white brush with white paint.
Wait until the "waterfalls" are completely dry, check that everything corresponds to what you have planned. Put several decorative elements on the bottom, in my case these are white round decorative stones. Add any blue dye (in this case, I took a dye for soap) - 3-4 drops to the "liquid glass" poured into any container that you do not mind throwing away
Allow time to dry completely " liquid glass"., Depending on the layer thickness, this will take from two to four days.
Add a couple of strips of "liquid nails" at the base of the "waterfalls", mix the applied strips with dried "water". Toothpick or bamboo stick lift the sealant at the base of the "waterfall" with small sharp "waves"
Allow time to dry and paint the tips of the “waves” at the base of the waterfall with white paint.
That's it, the waterfall is ready ...
Reducing air humidity in the room is a side side of heating an apartment in winter period... Moreover, excessively dry air not only causes discomfort when breathing, but also causes an increase in the number of colds.
The dry mucous membrane of the nasopharynx becomes more susceptible to all kinds of infections and viruses. That is why during heating season you should consider humidifying the air.There are many different humidification devices on the market: evaporator, steam generator, humidifier, etc. Some owners simply put open dishes with water in the room. As you can see, there are many options, but none of them is suitable for creative people, since our imagination simply will not put up with this simple solution... After all, there is an opportunity to do very useful and most importantly beautiful thing, do it yourself. So, after thinking a little, we found a way out by suggesting that you, dear readers, do indoor fountain... You can install such beauty in any convenient place: on the floor, on a table, on a stand. The decorative fountain will be an excellent interior decoration and will perfectly fit into any style solution. Moreover, the murmur of the indoor waterfall creates a peaceful environment conducive to rest and relaxation.
Master class table waterfall. Do-it-yourself desktop fountain.
To make a handicraft, a desktop waterfall - a fountain, we first of all need a mini pump for (circulation of water in the fountain) to raise water from the lower reservoir to the upper reservoir. It is best to use a pump water pump, which you can simply put in the bottom reservoir (reservoir) and pump the water up. Unfortunately, we do not have such pumps on sale, therefore, in this master class, a water pump from household appliances, or rather from an electric samovar (photo below).
We make the reservoir of the lower reservoir from a plastic oil bottle (5 l). Cut off the lower part with a height of 5-8cm.
A round cake tray with a diameter of 29-30cm is used as a base. Any shallow plastic container can be used.
Connection of the pump to the lower reservoir. Using a hot soldering iron, punch a hole in the reservoir of the lower reservoir. The hole should be 0.5mm smaller than the pump tube diameter. This is to ensure that the connection to the pump is tight to avoid leakage. If it is not possible to tightly connect the pump to the reservoir, then you can proceed as follows: put a piece of a soft hose on the pump tube and thread it through the prepared hole, which will seal the connection (see photo below).
At this step, you can check the operation of our fountain. Also check for leaks somewhere.
The above steps are only necessary if you do not have a pump pump.
Relief making. To make the relief, we will use construction foam... Cover the entire base with foam to a height of 5-6cm. Wait for the first layer to harden. It will take about 3-4 hours and start building up the slide (base of the waterfall) (see photo below). We gradually build up the base of the waterfall by 15-17cm.
After the foam has completely hardened (after 10-12 hours), we proceed to create a waterfall. We glue the waterfall bed with pebbles and lay out a small lake at the top. After completing the formation of the waterfall, we coat the channel well and, especially carefully, the seams between the stones waterproof glue liquid nails (see photo above).
After the glue has dried, we check the work of our desktop fountain - a waterfall. It will not be possible to get a beautiful drop of water right away, therefore, with the help of a pistol (hot glue), we form nests 3-4, in which streams of water will form and fall down, see the photo above.
Pour PVA construction glue diluted with water 1: 1 into the container, add color and sand. Stir and add sand until creamy. Let's prepare several shades of green and paint our craft, applying each layer after the previous one has dried.
The result of painting the decorative fountain in the photo above.
We start making the base (pallet) for our craft a desktop waterfall - a fountain.
Cut out a circle with a diameter of 30 cm from thick sheet cardboard, and another circle with an inner diameter of 30 cm and an outer diameter of 32 cm, strips 5 and 1.5 centimeters wide. We glue all the details as shown in the photos above.
We install our waterfall on the base and proceed to the final stage.
Between working on the tabletop waterfall, I collected sequin wood on stone.
We glue the tree in a previously prepared place and complete work on the desktop fountain - a waterfall, close all the flaws and minor flaws.
Now I'm ready original craft... Looking at her, you will never think that you can create such beauty with your own hands and use available materials for this. This indoor fountain will delight everyone. Isn't it an idea for a great gift ?!
It would seem that when we offered you to make a fountain for your home, we thought about humidifying the air in the room, and in the end we not only solved this problem, but also brought notes of originality and sophistication into your home.
