I am glad to welcome you on the Master Sergeyich channel!
Today we will make not just a nice thing for the home, but also a creative and useful one. And it is creative because it is made from materials and objects that serve other purposes. Plus, no one will definitely have such a thing, so to speak - exclusive!
Here's what we needed to make:
- Plastic bucket, glass bottle;
- Screwdriver and pen for tiles;
- Knife, scissors, marker, screwdriver, sandpaper, ruler, adhesive tape;
- Nail polish remover;
- Ice cream sticks;
- Hot glue and PVA glue;
- Wire, switch, plug, socket;
- A piece of tulle, a little openwork ribbon;
- Acrylic paints and acrylic varnish.
It may seem that there are a lot of materials, but here's what I will say, those who are engaged, at least occasionally, in handicrafts and needlework, almost all of them are in stock. For example, for this homemade product we bought only a plug, a switch and a cartridge.
Step 1.
Paper tape was glued to the bottom of the bottle and a hole was carefully drilled with a tile pen. The main thing here is not to press hard and drill at low speeds. Be sure to wet the pen in water.
Step 2
Degrease the bottle with nail polish remover (you can use alcohol, thinner or wash with dishwashing detergent). Primed with white acrylic paint. Left to dry.
Step 3
The rim of the bucket was cut off and the bottom was cut out.
Step 4
We sanded the edges and the entire area of the bucket with sandpaper.
Step 5
We measured 6 cm from the edge, drew a line and glued ice cream sticks.
Step 6
Degreased bucket.
A little bit of black was added to the white acrylic paint to make gray paint. Painted the bucket inside and out.
The bottle was also painted with the same paint.
Step 7
A hole was cut in the bottle cap for the cartridge.
Pass the wire through the hole in the bottle.
Step 8
Cut out the desired size of tulle. They applied PVA glue to it and glued it to the bucket.
We painted a piece of openwork tape and, when it dried, glued it.
Step 9
The cartridge was inserted into the cap of the bottle and fixed on sticks.
Step 10
We connected the switch and the plug according to this scheme.
Here is such a night light for the house turned out.
IMPORTANT! Lamps use only LED or other low-heating ones.
