You can create beautiful and original products from almost any material. The main thing for this is the desire to create beauty with your own hands.

Ordinary plastic spoons are perfect for home art. From standard and unremarkable items of disposable tableware, you can make bright, interesting, creative compositions.

it fascinating activity will appeal to both adults and children.

What can be made from spoons

Everyone who wants to please themselves and loved ones with the results of their creativity, we invite to the master class "Crafts from spoons."

You will see step by step the whole process of forming crafts from plastic spoons.

Tulips

In order to make a charming bouquet of tulips, we need:

  • spoons (5 pieces for each flower);
  • colored corrugated paper;
  • glue with a brush;
  • scissors;
  • green electrical tape.

Cut red paper squares. We wrap spoons in each square and glue them.

Then we collect the tulip. To do this, we fasten 2 spoons, add 3 more to them and fix the resulting flower with electrical tape. Cut out the leaves from green paper, attach to the stem and tie with a ribbon.

We make a bouquet and put it in a beautiful vase.

Water lily

To create a plastic water lily, you need to prepare:

  • spoons of different sizes,
  • glue gun;
  • ordinary glue;
  • paints;
  • scissors;
  • green plastic bottle.

After cutting off the handles of the spoons, hold the future petals together with a glue gun. You should now have an inner layer of petals.

Make the outer layer of the flower in the same way. Cut a 12 x 3 cm strip from the bottle and fringe along one of its edges. Roll up the strip and fix it with glue.

Paint the fringe yellow and let it dry.

Make leaves from the bottle as shown in the photo.

Attach the dried strip to the inside of the petals - this will be the middle of the flower. The gorgeous snow-white water lily is ready!

Garland of flowers

A bright flower garland will look very impressive, for the manufacture of which you will need:

  • 18 multi-colored spoons;
  • scissors;
  • glue;
  • thick thread;
  • paint;
  • pompons;
  • thick cardboard.

Cut 3 triangles of the same size from cardboard and color them.

Note!

Cut off the handles of the spoons. Mark the middle in the triangles and glue petals around it (6 per flower). Place a pompom in the center of each flower.

Make 2 holes in each triangle and thread the thread through them, thus connecting the flowers in a garland.

Flower vase

Making a cute flower vase will require you to have:

  • spoons;
  • tin cans;
  • scissors;
  • glue;
  • paints.

Paint the jar in your favorite color. Cut off the handles from the spoons. Paint the rounded parts of the spoons in the desired colors.

Glue the spoons to the jar in even rows.

Note!

ladybugs

Make a pretty one out of spoons ladybug you can use:

  • spoons;
  • glue;
  • large volumetric buttons;
  • paints;
  • scissors.

After cutting off the handles of the spoons, color in the oval part of each one. Glue the wings together. Attach a button-head on top.

Candlestick

To create a sterile original candlestick, you only need the spoons and glue.

By gluing the spoons as shown in the photo and attaching a candle to the top of the structure, you will get a stylish decor element that will decorate any holiday.

Decorative frame

You can also use disposable spoons to create original frames that decorate various interior items.

Note!

To do this, you will need:

  • spoons in large quantities;
  • scissors;
  • glue;
  • foam or thick cardboard;
  • a watch, small round mirror, photograph, or other valuable item.

After measuring the diameter of the item you want, cut a circle to the appropriate size in cardboard or foam.

Place a clock, photo or mirror in the resulting frame and secure it. Cut off the handles of the spoons. Glue the rounded portions of the spoons to the frame in rows in a circle, from edge to center.

Color the finished fruit of your creativity the way you want.

Christmas tree

Among the crafts made from disposable spoons, picturesque Christmas trees are very popular, for the manufacture of which you will need:

  • paper cone;
  • glue;
  • scissors;
  • paint.

We cut, as usual, the spoons into 2 parts;

We glue the oval part of the spoons to the cone in a checkerboard pattern.

We paint the resulting tree in any color or leave it white and admire our creation.

Maracas (musical instrument)

The creation of this unusual tool will take you very little time, but it is guaranteed to delight your children.

Prepare the following materials for this:

  • 2 spoons;
  • plastic egg;
  • scotch;

Place a small amount of rice in the egg and cover.

Squeeze the sides of the egg with spoons.

Cover the resulting model with tape.

Pumpkin

To make a large bright pumpkin out of spoons, you need to cook:

  • spoons of yellow or orange in large quantities;
  • foam ball.

Cut off the handles from the spoons.

Attach the rounded part of the spoons to the ball in a checkerboard pattern from bottom to top.

The top of the resulting pumpkin can be decorated with a small branch.

The process of creating all the described compositions is reflected in the photo of crafts from spoons. We talked about the most popular and beautiful products from this material and shared the secrets on how to make crafts from spoons with our own hands.

We hope that our master class has been useful and aesthetic pleasure for you.

Many beautiful flowers bloom in spring! But sometimes it is a pity to cut them for bouquets, because cut flowers do not live long, quickly lose their freshness and color. And so I would like. so that they stand longer in the vase.

The spring bouquet, which I propose to make with the children, will decorate the children's room for a long time.

While walking, we look at real flowers - tulips... We discuss what shape their petals are, what leaves. What are the colors tulips.

Then I suggest making your own bouquet.

For this we need: disposable spoons, plasticine, green cocktail tubes, gouache, green paper, leaf stencils.

Have disposable spoons break off the petal handles ready. For one flower needs 3-4 petals.

we paint the petals with gouache in red, yellow or purple.

When the petals are dry, put the petals together, fix it with plasticine, attach the resulting flower to the tube leg.

we will make green leaves from colored paper. We circle the leaves on a stencil and cut out, but not until the end, we leave the leg to be attached to the tubular leg. We attach the leaves and you're done.


you can collect a bouquet. We put the bouquet in a basket or in a beautiful glass

I often make crafts from plastic spoons in the form of flowers. In particular, it is very easy to make tulips and crocuses from them, since disposable plastic spoons are practically ready-made petals.

Only in the case of tulips, you need to use large plastic spoons (so to speak, dining), and for crocuses - small ones (tea, dessert).

To make one flower you will need:

  • Plastic spoons. Metal rod, stiff wire for the stem. Ideally, pushing the plastic tube.
  • For fastening - glue or wire.
  • Bright color paint.

1. Use a knife to separate the long handles of the spoons. The knife must be very sharp, as the handles often break off under pressure.

3. Glue / staple 3 tablespoons into the middle bud of the flower.

4. If you decide to glue the petals, choose a special glue for plastic: it contains a solvent for this material. As a result of its influence, the plastic, as it were, “melts”, all that remains is to press the elements tightly against each other, and they stick together very firmly, or rather “weld”. Universal adhesives are not very suitable for this type of plastic, since they do not give a very strong, it is easier to say, fragile connection. If you do not already have a special glue for plastic, it is better to use ordinary wire, threading it through the holes made by a heated (very strongly) nail or awl.

5. On the top of the bud, glue the second layer, already consisting of four petals.

6. If you are making a tulip, that is, a flower on a long stem, heat the end of the iron rod and press it into the base of the flower. You can paint the rod with green paint or wrap it with a strip of thin green plastic cut from a bottle. If you then heat the rod over a fire, the plastic will melt and firmly weld to the metal.

Glowing tulips from plastic spoons - a project about how much you can do with your own hands from ordinary disposable tableware, thanks to skillful hands and imagination. Such a bouquet-lamp will become great gift for a person dear to you and will pleasantly surprise him.

Materials and tools:

  1. disposable plastic spoons;
  2. soldering iron;
  3. paint;
  4. plastic tubes (stem, you can use other material) for balloons - convenient in that the tubes are hollow inside and you can remove the wires in them;
  5. lEDs, wires, resistors, switch;
  6. flower pot made of translucent plastic;
  7. transparent pebbles.

Step 1

Take disposable plastic spoons and use a knife (scissors) to cut off the top of the spoon as much as possible for the base, which is needed to create a flower bud. One bud will need 6 petals. Plastic spoons are different, it is better to buy thinner and more flexible spoons - it is easier to work with them.

Step 2

Let's start creating tulip buds. A tulip bud has 3 inner petals and 3 outer petals.

To connect the 3 inner petals, we use a soldering iron (preferably with an adjustable temperature). With a soldering iron, slightly melt the edges of the petals and carefully connect them, immediately give the shape of a bud, after hardening, the petals are firmly connected. You should work quickly enough, because plastic quickly hardens.

Some plastic spoons begin to char when heated, if this happens, it is better to take other spoons, or more quickly to melt.

To add the 3 outer petals, we will use glue (use any glue, liquid nails were used here). We take the outer petal, apply glue to the inner surface and glue it to the bud (glue the outer petals to the seams of the bud, thereby hiding them). We hold the petal until the infusion grabs. In this way, glue all 3 outer petals.

As soon as the glue has dried, take the bud and make a hole in the bottom for the stem using a soldering iron - heat the soldering iron and pierce the bud from below. The hole diameter should match the stem diameter.

Use fine emery paper to process all the irregularities resulting from the soldering iron. We also lightly process the entire bud so that the paint will better fit the paint.

Step 3

Let's start coloring the buds. For greater effect, color the buds in different colors, we use paint in spray cans (ideally, it is better to use special paints for a hobby - translucent artistic paints).

Put the bud on the stem tube (use one tube to color all the buds), degrease the surface and apply paint. If the stem tubes were transparent (or of some other color), then take the tubes - also lightly sand with fine sandpaper, degrease and apply green paint. We are waiting for the paint to dry completely.

Before painting the bud, we sand, degrease and paint the spoon to see how the paint will lay down and practice. Apply several thin layers and let the paint dry well between the layers so that it does not flow.

To protect the paint from chips or other damage, we will apply transparent varnish to the buds and tubes - several very thin layers.

Step 4

Let's start connecting the bud and stem. To begin with, take the tubes, cut them with a knife to the required length and sand the end where they were cut. Now we take the tube and from above, at a distance of about 1 cm, make a groove and a tubercle with a soldering iron (see image), so that the bud does not slip down and more convenient application of glue.

We put a small amount of glue in the groove and put the bud on the stem tube. We are waiting for the glue to dry.

Step 5

Let's do the highlighting of the colors. We take the LED and solder the wires to it, in order to isolate the open places we use a heat shrink tube.

Advice: in order not to get tangled in the wires, we recommend using wires of 2 colors - one for "+", the other for "-", for example, red - "+", green - "-".

Solder the resistor from the other end of the wire, choose the type of resistor depending on the power source and the LEDs used. We close the resistor and insulate the wire with a heat-shrink tube.

We will pass the resulting structure through the tube-stem from top to bottom, if necessary, then fix the LED with glue in the bud. Let's repeat this for all colors.

Step 6

Floristics - let's start creating a bouquet of tulips.

First, we will make the lower part of the base to which we will attach the flowers - we will cut it out of foam (or you can do it with polyurethane foam), in the center we make a through hole and insert a small piece of the tube, from the bottom insert the tube into the stand ("stand" - a balloon is attached to it, sold with sticks).

The upper part of the base - take a piece of plexiglass (plexiglass) and cut it in the shape of the upper part of the flower pot, the right size (in this case, the diameter), so that it is slightly inside the pot. Next, make holes in the plexiglass for the tubes-stems.

Take the flowers, thread them one at a time into the holes in the plexiglass and attach them parallel to the bottom of the base using electrical tape.

Let's sort the wires by color - twist together the wires "+" with "+" and "-" with "-", so that it is more convenient to continue to work and they do not interfere.

When we have finished assembling the bouquet, we will backlight the base - take several LEDs and glue them to the bottom of the plexiglass using epoxy glue (after having also soldered wires and resistors to them, we will weave wires of the same color together).

Step 7

Let's start checking the correctness of the email. connections. Let's connect together "+" from tulips with "+" from backlight and also connect "-" from tulips with "-" from backlight, take 2 wires and solder one to "+" another to "-" and connect to a power source. All LEDs should shine, if suddenly something does not work - we look for and fix the malfunction and check again.

Advice: throughout the project for email For connections, we use wires of 2 colors: one color corresponds to "+", the other - "-" - this will prevent confusion and simplify the work. All bare wires and resistors are best insulated with heat shrink tubing rather than electrical tape. Carry out high-quality soldering work, if there is no experience, then practice or ask a knowledgeable person. It is possible to connect wires not only by twisting, but using special terminals. It is better to buy a power supply as a power source.

If everything works, we finally fix all the wires.

Step 8

Let's start decorating the flower pot. A translucent flower pot was purchased for this project - this project step depends solely on your desire and imagination, how to decorate a flower pot and whether to decorate it - the choice is yours.

In this case, an inscription was made from the inside of the hill. In a graphic or text editor, select the font you like, write the inscription and edit (size, boldness, italics, etc.). Next, we print it on a printer. Take two-sided tape with a protective film (you can use a simple double-sided tape, but it will be more difficult to work), tear off the protective film on one side and glue it to the printed inscription. Now, using a clerical knife or a paper cutter, cut out the letters. When all the letters have been cut out, tear off their protective film and glue it on the inside of the flower pot.

We take dark paint and apply paint to the inside of the pot, wait until the paint dries and peel off the letters. The decoration of the flower pot is complete.

Step 9

Let's start assembling all the elements of the Glowing Tulips.

With a drill we make a hole for the wire (or for installing the plug). Glue the saucer from the flowerpot to the pot. We will pass the wire from the power supply through the hole in the pot and solder it to the wires coming from the backlight of the flowers and the base, and insulate it with a heat shrink tube. We put the base of the flower into a flower pot, if necessary, apply glue along the edge of the bottom of the plexiglass - for greater fixation of the base of the bouquet. Pour pebbles on top of the plexiglass. And finally, add the leaves to the tulips and install a switch on the outer wire. We turn on, check if everything works.

Glowing tulips ready and will be an excellent gift for a loved one, especially considering that it is made by hand. Also, this is the principle of making flowers and other elements of this project, you can use it when creating your more interesting and complex projects.

A joyful spring holiday for all women is coming soon - 8 MARCH. Every child wants to congratulate his beloved mother, grandmother on this holiday. But how can we help him in this? And here we propose to make him an unusual flower from spoons, and it will be spring Flower TULIP.

We need: a sushi stick, thin green ribbon 60-65cm. , 4-5 spoons of any color (we took white, green or yellow plasticine, scissors, green double-sided paper 10-15 cm., Glue stick, gouache of any color (we took lilac, a brush for painting.

Choose the spoons you like best and get to work.


We cut off the "held", we do not need it. From 4-5 "scooped" (of your choice) we will form a flower bud.



But first, let's prepare the stalk. Take a sushi stick and ribbon. Glue the tip of the tape to the thick edge of the stick and twist the tape around the stick.



Now we form the middle of the flower from plasticine.


Now you can shape the bud.



It remains to make strokes of paint on the bud.


Cut out, attach a leaf. So our tulip is ready.



A proud look and a stern figure -

This is a sunny tulip.

He settled in a flower bed

And in the spring it blossomed

On my mother's favorite holiday.

Like a carpet full of flowers

A flower bed right under the window.

I'll bring the bouquet to the house.

Bright red tulips

My mother loves me very much.

Mom will laugh loudly

Will smile with a bright sun.
