❣DIY Fairy Cottage Using Jars❣

Описание к видео ❣DIY Fairy Cottage Using Jars❣

Hi, in this video I show you how I made a fairy cottage using some old jars, cardboard and paper clay. I have a little collection of jars, I always save the ones with unusual shapes. This isn't a follow along project, because you might not have these exact jars laying around, but it's a proof of concept, something to get you started with your own jars and bottles. The way I start such a project is by selecting a few jars and play with them until I have an interesting shape, not too symmetrical, with a variety of thicknesses and heights. The next step is to glue them in place using hot glue. I know hot glue doesn't bind them together but it will hold them enough time for me to finish with the first layer of paper clay. I used cardboard from pizza boxes to make roofs and stairs. These cardboard shapes don't need to be perfect as we will cover them in clay. Next step is of course adding the first layer of paper clay. If you're new here, the clay I usually use is "Das modelling material" because it has dimensional stability when it dries, which means it doesn't shrink like a regular clay so it won't develop cracks around the jars. When adding this first layer you must decide where the windows will be and cut them out while the clay is still wet. You must work in small sections because you also need to draw and carve out the stones on the house. Don't try to finish the whole house at once because the clay might dry out before you have the chance to model it. I made the roofs in two layers. After the first layer is dry I added roof tiles, one by one starting from the bottom of the roof. For the coloring part I used watercolors that come in tubes. I colored the roofs first and then moved to the walls. I used a light color for the base, and then I added very diluted darker colors for the shadows, corners and textures. That's basically it. The two tower jars can be used as storage compartments for keys, money, jewelry and at the bottom you can easily add lights and make it a night lamp. Have fun with this and I would like to see more of your creations!
