Make home cozier and more comfortable will help homemade products for the household. Handmade appliances, decorating old household items will allow you to give a second life to things, which will significantly save the budget. It will also make it possible to decorate the environment and make the interior more creative. Some homemade products will visually increase the space and create comfort.
Folding chair
There is not always a financial opportunity to purchase some furniture in a store. You can successfully get out of this situation if you make crafts and homemade products for your home with your own hands. For example, just make a folding chair made of wooden blocks and canvas.
The folding part (chair legs) is attached using hinges or mounted on a metal pin, which is fixed with nuts on the edges. The tarpaulin is cut by two rectangles, in which grooves for the bars are sewn up on the sides. The side parts of the top of the chair (backrest frame with armrests) are made in the form of the letter "b". They are connected by bolts or self-tapping screws. It should be remembered that the folding lower part should be fixed in the working position. Therefore, not far from the connecting pin on the legs of the chair you need to attach a metal hook - it will lock this structure stably.
Who cooks porridge in the tent, collects guests
Craftsmen familiar with saws and drills can even make a children's room in a small apartment. To do this, you need to build something like plywood with doors and windows from plywood or other lightweight enough material. Corner joints of plates will imitate the corners of the house. Having painted a home-made screen accordingly, the master will turn it into a miniature children's tower.
It is only necessary to make sure that this screen can be firmly attached to the walls. After all, the safety of children is above all! And inside, a children's table, a crib, and a box with toys will fit in quite successfully.
And you can even sew a house for the child. For such walls, any bright fabric that can simply be hung on a rope, wire or solid cornice is quite suitable.
Knitted furniture
Today it has become extremely fashionable to make ottomans and benches with your own hands . They use such home-made products for households, storing various items inside: toys, bedding, pots, cereals. They can be placed in the kitchen, in the nursery or in the living room. They are also very convenient for relaxing both in a city apartment and in a country house.
To make creative knitted furniture with storage boxes, you must first make a frame for it. The bench consists of a rectangular box mounted on legs. The soft part is knitted in the form of a rectangular parallelogram without one base and is put on the cover. In the lower part, you can insert an elastic band so that the elegant “upholstery” is pulled together at the bottom of the bench.
Pouf can be given either a square or a cylindrical shape. To do this, vertical racks are stuffed around the circumference of the lower wooden base, which are then connected on top with thick wire. Between racks stuffed plywood shields, so that things do not fall out of the "store".
Separately cut out the upper round base. The soft part is knitted in the form of a cylinder, fixed on the upper part of the pouf. She slips on top of the pouf like a hatbox lid.
Use in homemade clothing
Anyone who has a collection of useful tips for the household should definitely make the following entry: “Do not throw away a thing before you are convinced of its complete disrepair. Try to give every subject a second life! ”
From old clothes, for example, you can knit or weave creative upholstery. Unnecessary tights are widely used, which are cut in a spiral, slightly stretched to twist the strip into a tube. You can use other material, also cutting it into strips and stitching them together. “Yarn” is wound into a ball, from which they are then knitted with fingers or a fabric is woven.
Knitting without needles repeats the usual knitting algorithm. Only the loops are held directly on the fingers. Yes, and pulling the thread also happens to them.
For weaving, you can use the frame, along the edges of which nails are stuffed. The thread is first laid crosswise, clasping symmetrically located nails. They should all cross at one point in the middle of the frame. Then, the end of the thread from the material is tied to the center and the method of weaving in a circular manner begins to form the fabric.
And the old refrigerator - to the point
As a home-made product for the household, you can use the long-lived large household appliances. And then instead of the dreary pulling out of the washing machine or refrigerator in the trash in the house, a creative necessary thing may appear. It will be both beautiful and useful.
For a long time already there is a technique for converting refrigerators into incubators. However, such a thing is required only for those who are engaged in poultry farming and live in rural areas. But such original home-made products for the home and summer house from the refrigerators, such as chests tied with fabric threads, will become a decoration of the home and will allow you to hide many useful gizmos in them.
To make this interior item, you need to remove the device motor. If you now put the refrigerator with the door up, then the frame of the chest is almost ready. It remains only to tie the cape and sew on its upper part a foam pad, cutting out a hole in it where the handle will hide.
The cloak should be made in the form of a rectangular parallelogram without a lower base. To make it easier to use the chest, you can sew a zipper into the side of the chest.
It's about painting - everything will be like a fairy tale
Non-working refrigerators are also easily converted into cabinets. One has only to conjure over their decor. You can make a creative piece of furniture in a cartoon style for a children’s room or a fantasy one for an entrance hall, in antique for a living room or in a music cabinet. It all depends on the imagination of the master.
Although the working refrigerator will become more creative if it is painted or glued to the casing with an original film sticker. This also protects the surface of the unit from scratches and corrosion.
Kitchen appliances decor
You can simply decorate not entirely new household items with stickers, appliqués or draw paintings on the casing with paints for metal surfaces. The thing will again delight the eye and sparkle with fresh colors. In just a few hours, you can completely change the look of the kitchen without even making home-made products from scratch for the household.
Microwave ovens, washing machines, cabinets and pencil cases are decorated with both picture-drawings and three-dimensional decorations are pasted on them.
Each person, with his skillful hands, can create unique and even luxurious objects for his home. Just think a little and make an effort.
