Friends, hello!
After the repair, we were left with pieces of foam (this is dense foam), which it was a pity to throw out, and I decided to make something out of them. I found an interesting idea somewhere on the Internet and decided to repeat it. And that's what happened to me ...
For making, I used:
· Pieces of foam (2 cm thick);
· Office paper;
· Knife, scissors, pencil, pen;
· Sandpaper, hacksaw blade for metal;
· Toothpicks;
· Hot glue;
· Acrylic paint;
· Old clothes brush;
· Plaster;
· Pot for flowers.
Step 1.
On a sheet of office paper I drew a semblance of ovals and cut them out.
Step 2.
Transferred to penoplex, outlined and cut out with a clerical knife.
Step 3.
Using sandpaper, I trimmed the cut edges.
Step 4.
I cut small parts in half with a knife, and saw large ones with a hacksaw blade for metal.
Step 5.
Once again I processed it with sandpaper and that's what I got.
Step 6.
I adjusted the parts so that they fit tightly, inserted toothpicks and glued everything together with hot glue.
That's how it turned out for me.
Step 7.
I made dents with a disassembled handle.
Step 8.
I painted everything with green acrylic paint.
Step 9.
He pulled the bristles out of an old clothes brush with pliers.
I glued several bristles into the squeezed places with hot glue.
Step 10.
I spread some gypsum, inserted the cactus into the pot and filled it with plaster.
When the plaster was set, he poured several tablespoons of sand.
Here is a cactus I got, which I later put in the garden. It looked like a real one, everyone who came to visit was surprised how we managed to grow such a gorgeous cactus.
