Panel of pasta “My house”

To create a very interesting picture you will need the following:

• Pasta of different shapes and sizes: snail, horns, spirals.
• Various cereals: buckwheat, rice, chopped peas.
• PVA glue.
• Paint brush and glue.
• Simple pencil, marker.
• Basis for the application (you can take the cover from the shoe box).
• Gouache.
• Polish for hair.

Sequencing:

• Start with the basics. Draw the base of your panel on the inside of the lid: a house, clouds and the sun with rays.
• After the sketch is ready, carefully examine your cereals and pasta, determine which material you will fill this or that part of the sketch with.
• Now you can go directly to the creation of the picture. To do this, take the glue and apply it with a brush to separate sections of the sketch. Glue the desired type of pasta or cereal immediately after application.

Important! First, it is desirable to decorate the sun with the help of peas and one horns, which define a smile. You can do this in two ways: simply pour it onto the base with PVA or glue each individual pea in turn.

• Next, make buckwheat out of buckwheat.
• From the horns, draw the line between the sun and the rays, and from the thin spirals, draw the rays.
• When the rays are ready, go to the clouds, which can also be laid out of the horns, so that they seem fluffy and airy.
• After the clouds, apply glue to the upper part of the base, around the sun and clouds and decorate with rice - this will be the sky.
• Now you can start laying out the house - for this, use large spirals.
• Glue the horns on the roof - they will act as tiles.
• When the house is ready, you can "plant" a tree next to it. To do this, make a trunk from thin spirals, and a crown from snails.
• When the walls of the house are dry, you can make a door - for this, use rice.
• To the left of the house, place a bush of one horns and three snails.
• Decorate the lower part of your picture with buckwheat - it will be the earth.
• The picture is ready, but so far it looks somewhat faded. To fix this, you can color it a little. To do this, highlight with gouache the sky, clouds, a house, a smile from the sun, a tree and a bush.

Important! You need to paint the picture carefully - try not to take a lot of water on the brush, since pasta can swell from this.

• After the panel has completely dried up, spray hairspray on it - this will give the crafts a brightness.

Pasta Basket

Another great option is a DIY pasta basket. To make it, you will need the following:

• Scallop pasta.
• Thermal gun.
• A mug from an old thermos or some other container of a similar shape.
• Masking tape.
• Nippers.
• Enamel in aerosols of several colors.

Sequencing:

• Pour pasta onto a dish or onto paper.
• Lubricate the bottom edge of the thermos flask with glue and glue the first row of “scallops” to it with a wavy edge out. After the bottom of the basket is framed, create the first and all subsequent rows.
• Attach the “scallops” from above with a silicone gun, make a basket handle. To do this, first draw it on a paper sheet.

Important! The width of the handle should correspond to the diameter of the basket.

• Now lay out the pasta by pasting the next “comb” to the previous one. When the resulting construction dries, attach the handle to the basket, wetting excess glue with adhesive tape.
• A DIY pasta basket is almost ready. To make it look even more beautiful, you can make pretty flowers from the same pasta and stick them to the craft.
• Finally, cover the product with brown or gold enamel.
