We all drink milk frequently. Mothers cook cereals with milk for children, adults add milk to coffee, and then everyone throws the milk packaging into the trash can. But few people know that you can make beautiful gift wrapping from it.
A type: photo master class.
Heading: decor, do-it-yourself.
Materials and tools:
- decor: satin ribbon and buttons;
- felt-tip pen, scissors and a ruler;
- PVA glue and glue gun;
– empty milk carton;
- white gouache and sponge brush;
- a small piece of cloth;
- brush and lid;
- newspaper;
Note: The cardboard inside the handles is best cut with small scissors.
In order not to get your hands dirty, you can use plastic gloves.
To check whether the first layer of paint has dried, it is enough to touch it with your hand, if the paint remains on the skin, then the paint has not yet dried. To dry the layer faster, you can dry it with a hairdryer, put it on a battery or the sun (put it on a windowsill).
- For work, we need an empty package of milk. Wash it with water and dry it.
- We take a ruler and measure from the bottom edge 8 cm. Draw a straight line along the ruler.
- Next, draw the handle.
- On the other hand, we make the same notes. Cut off the excess cardboard from the sides.
- Cut along the border of the handle.
- We put our packaging on the newspaper. Open gouache and apply without diluting with water with a sponge. First layer 1. We are waiting for the layer to dry. Then we apply the second layer.
- For convenience, pour PVA glue into the lid.
- We apply PVA glue to the package. We apply the edge of the fabric to the package and also apply PVA glue on top.
- Glue on the entire surface of the package. Bend the bottom fabric inward.
- Cut off a long strip of fabric. We apply glue (glue gun) to the edge and glue it from the inside. We begin to wrap the fabric around the handle. At the end, we fix it with glue, cut off the excess fabric.
- Then we wrap the second handle.
- We make bows from satin ribbon or buy 4 pieces.
- Glue the bows on the handles. Glue buttons on top.
It turns out a beautiful package in which you can give small gifts: cosmetics, small-sized indoor flowers, jewelry, stationery.
