Handmade wood crafts. Wood crafts made at home. For school

For many, a personal plot today is not only a garden, but also a place for family recreation. I want to arrange it so that everyone is comfortable, and the children also have fun.

Wood is often used as a material for landscape decoration. Moreover, it is not necessary to buy it.

You can use waste from the construction of outbuildings, sawn wood, wooden pole, snags from the nearby forest, etc.

Moreover, you can make crafts from wood with your own hands.

Structures

Arbor, pergola, sandbox, veranda, well - these and other structures made of wood look very impressive. For their manufacture, you can use timber, slats, logs.

But that's all enough traditional materials. And you can look for wind-blown tree trunks in the forest, cut logs of the same length, remove the bark (or not remove it) and dig them into the ground, after treating the underground part with a special compound that will protect the tree from decay.

The roof of the gazebo can be made of straw or willow. You get something like a bungalow. Very creative.

Track

On summer cottages popular crafts from saw cuts of wood. It can be a gazebo wall, part of a fence, garden sculptures. And also this suitable material for a garden path.

You need to cut a log or several logs across. Circles can have different diameters, but the thickness should be the same for everyone. The same thickness you need to cut thin logs and branches.

If the wood is eaten inside by insects, it is better not to use it, since such a path will not last long.

For the future road, you need to dig a trench 10 cm deep. Its length and width are arbitrary, at the request of the owners. Fill the trench with sand and compact it. Lay the cuts first with the most large diameter. There are smaller ones between them.

Cuts from branches need to fill the remaining free space. Cover cracks with earth or sand. The path will be more interesting if you sow the seeds of lawn grass into the ground between the cuts.

fences

Can be used for fencing wooden picket fence- more or less straight sticks with a diameter of up to 5 cm. To do this, collect branches in the forest and remove the bark from them. If some of them have small knots or horns at the end, it will be even more interesting.

The fence can be not only external, but also inside the site for zoning space. It can be an openwork lath wall, along which, if desired, you can plant climbing plants or hang pots with petunias or ampelous plants.

bridges

Of course, the first to appreciate the semicircular bridges in the country are children. But also the kind of adults decorative elements soothes and soothes. It is good if there is an artificial reservoir on the site. The bridge will look more natural.

But there are some nuances.

  • Firstly, for such crafts you need a lot of logs.
  • Secondly, not every owner knows how to make the bridge a more complex modification, for example, a semicircular one.
  • Thirdly, you can’t just go into the forest and cut down trees, for this you need permission from the relevant authorities, and this is quite expensive.

Flowerbed

Under the flower bed, you can adapt a stump from a sawn tree, a trunk, a log, a massive log. To do this, you need to hollow out a recess with a chisel and a hammer.

Note!

If it is a stump, then the recess is hollowed out on a saw cut, if it is a lying log, then in its side part. Can be turned old driftwood into a strange animal. Earth is poured into the recess and seedlings are planted.

Garden furniture

Wooden garden crafts can become quite functional if they serve as garden furniture. Of course, for the manufacture of furniture, you must have certain skills in working with wood and professional tools.

All the same logs, logs are suitable as a starting material, an excellent bench can be made from a stump. You can use thick plywood for the garden table top.

Since all these items will be in the open air around the clock, you need to take care of moisture protection, protection from mold and drying out. And all surfaces must be carefully sanded and sanded so that splinters do not spoil the rest outside the city.

Playground

You can arrange it around a stump from a sawn tree. The stump itself can be easily turned into a house for gnomes, equipping it with a beautiful tiled roof, a door, windows and other accessories. Looking for photos of wood crafts on the Internet, it is easy to find examples of such houses.

Around the house you can arrange various garden wooden sculptures and toys: a rocking horse, a car, animals from round cuts. And of course a sandbox with a roof.

Note!

Older children can be involved in the arrangement of the playground by teaching them how to handle a hammer, planer and other tools. Children's crafts made of wood will appeal to themselves, their friends, and adults.

On the playground, with the help of logs and logs, you can arrange a real training base if you arrange and dig them in the form of a ladder, lay out a labyrinth, make a swing, hang the logs on chains 20 cm from the ground and build a swing path. It all depends on the amount of material and the imagination of the owners.

It is only important to observe safety precautions and use only strong wood for any element of the playground. The foundations of all sports facilities and buildings must be properly concreted. All knots and notches are sawn and sanded.

A wide variety of wood crafts for summer cottages and gardens can be viewed on the Internet. The main thing to have quality material.

Note!

Good afternoon. Today we start uploading articles on the topic of wood crafts with their own hands. In this first article, I want to show you some simple wood crafts for both kids and adults. Many ideas fit for school work- for boys. Some ideas will work for school competition crafts made from natural materials. Some wooden crafts can become decoration of your cottage or yard. Here you will find a storehouse of inspiration and joy from the anticipation of such an interesting and simple work. In this article I will show you what to do beautiful crafts wooden can anyone. Because here you will find simple and feasible tasks. Even a fragile woman with a manicure can do half of the crafts from this article. So - let's fall in love with wooden art.

Let's start with simple magic.

tree + sun

Crafts that glow with love.

Here are the simplest and cutest country crafts from wood. For crafts, you need a log saw cut (ask when you are sawing firewood with a grinder to make a few thin saw cuts). Or you can do it without sawing - just take a board of any size.

In a tree, we drill holes of such a thickness that a glass pebble bought in a store enters it. Such sets of multi-colored decorative glass stones are sold - in the gifts department, and in the department where candles, vases and everything for holiday decor.

You can drill such holes with glass just in a board - and hang it on an apple tree. You can drill such holes in the fence - if the sun at least once a day shines into it at a low angle.

That's very beautiful. Magically. Like in the land of fairies. Your kids will love this wood craft.

simple wooden crafts

from saw cut logs.

If you are sawing logs for firewood in your yard, you are in luck. You can get priceless craft material for free. Ask the men to cut flat cuts for you, both from small logs and large ones. Lovingly stack them away from the woodpile and start inventing future wood crafts. For example, let it be wooden owls. It's easy to make and looks beautiful. Saw cuts can be nailed to each other with nails. You can plant them on liquid nails (like glue).

The surface of the saw cuts can be rough, unskinned (as in the photo with the bunny craft). And can be sanded sandpaper and even varnish such ornamental material. Or paint in the color you want.

From large saw cuts, you can make large country crafts from wood. And small log cabins (from thinner branches and logs) are suitable for miniature crafts - for example, these birds. You can cut branches of this thickness yourself with a hacksaw - manually, without a chainsaw.

Log saw cuts can become a canvas for art installations. Such wooden crafts-pictures can be made from any natural material. Go to the river and find smooth flat pebbles. They become the source interesting crafts. The stones are easily painted with felt-tip pens, office bold markers or just gouache (after work, fix the gouache with hairspray or nail polish).

And here is another way to make beautiful AIR crafts from wooden cuts. Openwork through cutting with an electric jigsaw (photo with crafts Maple Leaf) looks amazing.

Here is a small master class, from which you can see how the process of cutting openwork patterns on a thick saw cut of a tree takes place.

First, trace the stencil with a pencil. Then we drill holes in the key nodes of the picture with a drill. And then with a jigsaw we go from one holey node to another.

You can create your own device which will help you cut wood products using a conventional drill. Do it yourself electric jigsaw. Holding hands on comfortable handles, you simply move the device - following the lines of your drawing. The thinner the drill, the more small parts you can cut out a picture for them. Well thought out.

Or maybe buy a jigsaw It costs an average of $100. You can find it for 50, but we don’t work on an industrial scale, so it’s not necessary to buy a very powerful expensive tool.

Mosaic Crafts

From saw cuts of thick branches.

If you have country yard the boring barn wall is staring right at you. That needs to be made boring. Let's make a shed positive with the help of wooden crafts. Let's do mosaic applique from small saw cuts. Such cuts are obtained by sawing thick branches or thin logs with a hacksaw (or chainsaw).

basis for such a wood craft, we cut it out of a sheet of plywood. First, draw on it the silhouette of the future crafts. We cut the plywood base with a manual jigsaw or a special power tool. And we stick wooden roundels on it - on liquid nails, on wood glue or on hot glue from a gun.

And even at home you can make saw cuts decorative wooden mirror frame(master class in the photo below).

  1. Also buy a round mirror. Put it on a sheet of plywood - circle it with a pencil.
  2. Around the resulting circle, retreat a few centimeters (to the width you want for the frame). And with this indent draw a second circle.
  3. Cut out a large circle from plywood. And glue the outer ring with saw cuts of wood. It will turn out a beautiful wooden craft frame - it remains to glue a mirror into the middle on liquid nails.

PUFF CRAFTS

from wood.

This is probably my favorite kind of wood crafts. Here, the swollen shields lie on top of each other, creating a LAYER VOLUME of crafts.

Here is a cow craft made from three layers of wooden shield. The first layer is the body, the second is the head, the third is the bangs and nose.

You can paint all the layers of your craft the same color (as craft polar bear wood) or in different colors (as a craft mouse on the moon- photo below).

Or you can leave the textured wood pattern (as in the crafts from the photo below).

wood fox It has a two-layer construction - the back layer, and the head and tail are laid on it.

craft duck has 5 layers central layer with the head, and two layers on both sides (tummy + wing).

The more layers you will impose on each other, the more voluminous and convex your craft will be. Here is an example with the craft "Lions made of wood" you can see how the muzzle of the beast moves forward, thanks to four layers of thick wooden board.

If you color your crafts. Draw facial expressions, add small details - folds, spots, and more. You can get very realistic and expensive wood crafts. Your little hobby can become your business. Such works can be safely put up for sale.

You can invent your own characters. Draw their layers on a sheet of paper. Enlarge the craft first in a paper template - transfer the contours to a wooden shield and cut it out. Or find pictures in a children's coloring book- and redraw them in an enlarged size.

Wooden craft

For school

At the lesson of labor.

Such Puff wood crafts can be cut NOT FROM THICK SHIELD, but made of thin plywood. And then such work can be carried out in labor classes as part of the school curriculum. On the topic "cutting with a jigsaw on plywood."

Here's an idea for you - how from 3 plywood boards make a two-color puppy craft. The first posterior layer of WHITE PLYWOOD peeks out only with the tips of the ears, tail and one hind leg. We will cover the second layer with a stain (so that it darkens). Eyes, nose and lines can be drawn with a marker, or burned out with a special wood burning device.

In the same technique of shields with different shade colors, you can make a lot of voluminous wood crafts at labor lessons at school or in a circle of wooden creativity.

wood crafts

as an APPLICATION.

In a very similar technique, you can make an appliqué out of wood. Here, too, wooden solid wood board(that is, not a glued shield, but a solid board). Because we will grind it, and the glued sanding shield can exfoliate and the glue seams will be visible.

  1. On paper the whole future craft is drawn. Divided by lines into details. Each detail is numbered. And it is photographed (so that later on the photo to check the location of each element).
  2. Next, the drawing is cut along the lines into elements. We trace each element on the board with a pencil. We cut out an element from a flat board. All elements are flat on top, rough on the edges of the cut and with sharp sawing edges.
  3. Now our task smooth all edges of each part, round. We grind the sharp edges of the cuts with a chisel. And we grind it on a grinding machine (if you have one) or do it by hand with sandpaper of varying degrees of hardness-roughness.
  4. After sanding all the details painted in tinted stain(sold in construction stores). Depending on how many times you wipe the part with a stain, you will get a lighter or darker tone. Very light details can be wiped off simply vegetable oil. You can check in advance shades of color on the scraps of wood left after sawing the crafts.

You can also paint the details of wood crafts in watercolor or gouache(using not a brush, but a foam rubber sponge). After painting, so that the part does not get your hands dirty, you can sprinkle it with hairspray or impregnate the craft with another wood finish (only check what color it will be on the scraps beforehand).

It only seems that the cow (pictured in the woodwork above) is behind the moon. In fact, all the details are in the same plane. On a piece of paper. But thanks to the streamlined edges of the details, everything looks voluminous, soft and, as it were, PUSHED into each other. In fact, nothing is pressed in - everything just lies next to each other.

Ideas for such flat wood crafts can be taken inside children's coloring books. There are just pictures with large details. Children's coloring picture can be found in Google - enlarge and print. Or redraw directly from the monitor screen by placing a sheet of paper on the glowing screen.

Methods for grinding parts

for wood crafts

(instructions to help).

To make it easier to sand smooth edges of parts without rubbing calluses on my hands, I want to give some useful tips.

You can pinch the sandpaper sanding belt in a special vice, also hammered together from wood. Here's how it's done in the left photo below. Or come up with your own version of the device.

Here on the left photo - sandpaper wraps around a thick plank with a semicircular edge. And the edges of the sandpaper are wrapped in a groove, and clamped with a bolt twisted through a round cylindrical piece of wood-clamp.

There are also grinding nozzles for a drill. And then you can do the shlivovka parts using the rotational power of the drill and the magical power of electricity.

Below we see grinding attachments for drill- cymbal and drum shape.

There are drill grinders where you can change sandpaper - remove the old worn sandpaper and refill with a new one.

By the way, on Aliexpress you can buy immediately in bulk grinding drums on a drill for 3-4 dollars for a batch of 100 pieces. If you look you can find it cheaper.

And so that the drill does not spin in your hand during operation, you can create a special FASTENING STRUCTURE, which will fix your homemade grinding machine in one place, and all you have to do is bring the parts to the grinding drum.

The design of the mounting tray can be different - with a wooden clamp (photo above), or with a lock in the form of a metal bracket (as in the photo below).

With such an assistant, making wood crafts with your own hands is a pleasure. Quickly pleasant and immediately beautiful results. Such work can be put on stream - and a whole production of beautiful wooden (smooth and safe) toys for children, gift wooden paintings can be established.

You can become a successful master. Completely unexpected. It's as simple as looking at this article and falling in love with the idea.

Fantasy wooden crafts- unlimited. Remember the formula for success - everything can be made from wood. The main thing is to start ... then continue ... and finish.

For example, knocker toys. Beautiful fun for children and for decorating the cottage. Such a hammer or woodpecker can knock on your door, reporting guests on the porch. Like in a fairy tale - pull the rope, and the door will be opened for you.

You can make decorations for the children's room with your own hands. In fact, reincarnate and become a designer of interesting interior wood crafts. Any boy will be happy if his children's room sparkles with motives from the Jungle.

You know ... I'll probably continue the theme of wooden crafts for design children's room in one of the following articles. I would like to see what ideas are hidden here. And falling in love with someone is a good thing.

And perhaps we need to create an article with wooden toys for children - self made. You also need to write. And then it will work here link.

And while we continue...

Crafts FROM WOOD

and WASTE material.

Where do future crafts live? …. Old decayed boards. For example, from the grandmother's fence. Which usually go for firewood or are taken out of the yard as excess garbage. Stop. Let's not throw them away. Let's dig through this pile and create something wonderful - with our own hands from wood.

A wooden mop-brush, if cut in half, turns into the mouth of an evil dog. A little imagination and work. And now the service dog bristles and grins at you.

Gorgeous piece of art. tree and waste material.

Any junk material (pieces of iron, plastic) and old pieces of wood can populate your house with fairy-tale characters. They are alive. They have a soul and their own story.

wood crafts

Imperishable beauty.

Peeled veneer , from old furniture panels, quietly damp in your shed - can also become a source for handicrafts, applications made of wood.

From this thin wood material you can cut out the details of the future crafts directly with scissors and stick them on hot glue from a gun (or on wood glue).


And instead of veneer, you can use thin birch bark. And also make interesting flat wood crafts.

wood crafts

(logs, firewood and bark)

Ordinary firewood from your woodpile can be a source of inspiration for wooden crafts for the country.

If a round log is cut obliquely, then you get a figure with a face turned towards you. It remains only to draw this face, add elements of eyes, ears, nose to it.

You can fold the body of an animal from logs and round blocks. The logs will be the legs and the logs will be the back. The head can be made from a round cut of a small log. Or chop off with an ax snout up desired shape from the same log as the body of your four-legged wood craft.

Show your imagination, do not stop before a difficult task. A squirrel made of wood or a snail made of logs - there is nothing complicated. We turn on the head and sense of humor - it will tell you the most ridiculous, but effective ways convey the gentle image of the animal using rough wood and other natural material.

YOU can work with a chainsaw or an ax - sawing or cutting off the face of your wood craft. Here you can make such cute pigs with your own hands as a fun wood craft for the country house.

And in the bushes you can put a beautiful proud deer - also a simple and quick craft made of wood and branches.

wooden crafts

from chips from a log.

It happens that when you chop wood, curly large chips break off from the log. This chip often has a bizarre shape - already similar to something (a bird, a panther, a face profile). It is necessary to carefully put such a gift of fate aside, in order to return to it later and complete the craft begun by nature. Cut something with a knife, highlight something with paint, glue something as an additional detail. And you get a craft made of wood with your own hands - beautiful and original.

These are the ideas I managed to find for the masters of wooden art.

Now you can also make beautiful wood crafts with your own hands. Moreover, this article is only the first of a cycle on the topic of wooden crafts which are clear and easy to make at home. You have probably already fallen in love with some ideas and are determined to implement them - I keep my fingers crossed for you - let everything work out in the best way.

Furniture, utensils, tools, weapons and even wooden toys appeared in prehistoric times. Today finished products folk craftsmen admire the subtlety of work and are in great demand. Many want to learn how to craft wooden crafts with their own hands, but often do not know where to start.

And it's worth starting. After all, you will not only show yourself creatively, but also bring a lot of benefits for the home, for the family.

Varieties of crafts

It is worth considering most of the options, one of which will definitely suit your taste, and you will want to try your hand.

What can you do on your own

Wood can be used to build many things, for example:

  1. Often in everyday life, convenient, but non-standard items are required. For example, a table or chair for a small room. More difficult - bookcases, sideboards, original prefabricated furniture. On the Internet, you can easily find drawings of wooden products, but it is not easy at first to cope with the work without skills and expensive tools.
  2. If you have children, it is better to head for crafts made from snags, small slats or plywood. For example, burning or sawing.
  3. Fans of wicker furniture or baskets will do well to take a walk in the forest or park and collect vines. Crafts woven from raw rods are dried and used for their intended purpose for the kitchen or summer cottage.

In the photo - kitchen utensils made on their own.

  1. Relaxing in your free time with a chisel in your hands can be useful for business. , rolling pins, spoons, spatulas and other useful things will be appreciated by the female half of the family.
  2. Even ardent opponents of fixing broken things sometimes have to do it. Look at the situation from the other side self repair wooden products will not only calm the nerves, but also save the budget.
  3. Many admired the exquisite carved lace, which came out from under the hands of masters of folk art. Unfulfilled childhood dream of a mug " skillful hands» quite realize in your free time at home. Buy a set of cutters and a hammer, redraw the pattern on a die and relax to your health.
  4. Update the door, facade, decorate flower pots or mini-flower beds can be slats. Do-it-yourself products made of wooden slats like planters or shelves will enliven the interior, giving it exclusivity.
  1. suitable for those who like to draw more than saw or cut. Ready-made items, both new and in need of restoration, are suitable for coloring.

Note! Even if you don’t know how to saw or draw at all, but you are drawn to creativity, decoupage will help you. The stores sell special napkins with drawings, primer, glue and varnish. After simple manipulations, boring doors kitchen cabinets, tables, any wooden objects will become a decoration for the house.

  1. Masterpieces glued from matches. Here fantasy is limitless and with due perseverance, you can create something grandiose. Moreover, from affordable raw materials, the price of which is cheap.

Material selection

In order for the work to go well, try to determine the material purposefully, selecting it according to its main properties. Wood needs to be well dried room temperature at least half a year.

The abundance of knots is undesirable, they are difficult to process and not always out of place:

  1. Linden is the undisputed leader among materials for crafts. Extremely easy to process both along and across the fibers. It has a smooth surface, without knots, a weakly expressed pattern of annual rings. A pleasant warm milky color with shades of pink looks very noble.
  2. Birch . She can be awarded the second place after the linden in terms of popularity among the masters. The color is slightly grayish, often with dark patches. Rather dense and heavy structure, it is more difficult to process.
  3. Beech, oak, walnut. They belong to expensive varieties, processing without special devices is extremely laborious due to very hard wood.

Note! Pine and spruce are inexpensive material, exuding a pleasant smell for years. But the structure is heterogeneous, resinous inclusions and large fibers are not uncommon. Therefore, the instruction advises the use of material for the production of large products.

Tools

They are needed for almost all types of creativity. It is clear that you want to get by with a minimum or what is available.

Here is a basic checklist of what you need to get started:

  1. Circular saw or hand router.
  2. Wood saw.
  3. Electric drill.
  4. Jigsaw.
  5. A set of cutters.
  6. Plane.
  7. Hammer and mallet.
  8. Rasp and curly files.
  9. Emery skin.

Primers, varnishes, paints

Since GOST for wooden objects still exists for household products, the safety of coatings is taken into account first of all. Today, almost all mixtures are made on a natural basis.

You can find them in specialized stores. Most often, acrylic primers, paints and varnishes are used for final processing.

How to decorate the interior

For those who want to make something original out of wood right now, we advise you not to delay with a walk around the immediate surroundings.

You will find the source material very close and completely free:

  1. If chainsaws are sawing trees in the area, ask for some round or bevel cuts with bark. Dry the dies at home, sand the front and back sides.

It is better not to remove the bark so that the future picture looks more natural. Prime one side and you can start painting the landscape. Paints are suitable for oil or acrylic.

  1. Branches or snags of intricate shapes will be wonderful hangers in the hallway. Sort thin branches, clean and put in floor vase. Here is a piece of forest in a city apartment.
  2. Branches can also be used to make picture frames or mirrors.. The corners are tied crosswise with decorative twine, leaving the ends of the sticks sticking out. Get a frame in oriental style.
  3. There are many unclaimed in the kitchen cutting boards ? Tidy them up by cleaning them first sandpaper. Tastefully painted, they will decorate the kitchen.
  4. I want to try burning out, but there is no apparatus? It doesn't matter, it will be replaced by an ordinary household magnifying glass. Get creative on a sunny day, adjusting to a new “tool” on unnecessary plywood. Having caught correct distance from a magnifying glass to a blackboard, you can successfully burn out pre-applied contours of patterns with the help of the sun.

  1. Exquisite shells will be obtained from multilayer plywood. The more layers of veneer, the better. Saw out round blanks, then use a round file to make grooves from the middle to the edges obliquely. You will get wavy stains, like a real shell. The product is sanded and varnished.

Conclusion

Given the high demand and prices for handmade wooden products, you can think about additional income from your hobby. For those interested in working with wood, we offer a video in this article, which presents illustrative examples of the work and the process of their manufacture.

If you have any questions, ask them in our comments.

DIY wood decor for walls

If you decide to use wood to decorate the walls, then you can do it in two ways:

    cover the surface of one or all the walls in the room with wooden dice;

    select a separate section of the wall and arrange it in the form of a panel.

The first option is not suitable for every room - it will fit better in the interior of a veranda, corridors, a country-style kitchen or a home bathhouse. But to decorate a separate section of the wall, you can show all your imagination. It can be:

    Kitchen apron or panel above working area. Beautiful saw cuts are obtained from different breeds trees - apple, pear, plum, cherry, walnut, ash, where each has its own unique color. You just have to sand the surfaces of the plates well and cover the bright canvas with a protective layer of colorless varnish.
