DIY pasta crafts (90+ photos)

Making crafts with your own hands is a rather fascinating process, which makes it possible to do something beautiful at minimal cost. Crafts from pasta are a great way to create elegant decorative compositions, decorations, as well as the opportunity to have a great time with your family, which will bring great pleasure to the kids. In this article we will consider decorative crafts from pasta of varying complexity, children's products, as well as ways to create Christmas decorations.

First of all, it is necessary to prepare the material and means for gluing, painting products. If you plan to make ball-shaped products, you will need a balloon, and for some voluminous crafts, such as Christmas trees, you need to prepare cardboard and scissors. The advantage of pasta crafts is their low cost, since the material is very inexpensive, and in any store you can buy pasta of various shapes.

The best glue option will be a hot gun with silicone filling, which is sold in needlework stores. It provides reliable durable bonding. Since the drop from the gun comes out quite large for small pasta, it is simply smothered first on cardboard, and then applied to the parts with a toothpick. But you need to take into account that the glue drops harden very quickly, so for a start it is better to practice folding the form without it and, when everything turns out quickly, proceed to gluing. In addition to the gun, we can also use the well-known PVA glue, but it will not ensure the reliability of the product - any push can cause the craft to disintegrate.

You can paint pasta in various ways - before gluing or after. If you decide to make a large multi-colored craft, for example, a vase, you can color the pasta in advance using food coloring for Easter eggs. It is diluted in water, as stated in the instructions (it is necessary to add vinegar, which fixes the color), drop a batch of pasta, stir until the color is obtained and lay it out to dry. You can color the pasta after gluing with a brush and acrylic paints or a spray can for graffiti.

Various decorative elements help to significantly transform the interior, make it a special feature. Since there is not always enough money to buy expensive jewelry, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with how to make them yourself from simple pasta.

Tea or coffee service is a magnificent decoration of the kitchen or living room, which will fill the atmosphere with a special cosiness of home warmth. Made with his own hands, it will also become the real pride of the owners of the home and will certainly cause considerable surprise among the guests. Since this craft will require the manufacture of several elements at once, it will take a lot of time and painstaking work, but the result will be excellent.

So, the first thing you need to do is create a tray. To do this, you need to take cardboard, give it the necessary shape at your own discretion (rectangular, round). Next, lay out and glue the edges of the same flat pasta throughout the shape, and at the edges we form an additional border with shells. Next, we make the service parts as follows:

1. The teapot. For its formation, you will need a balloon, which must be inflated to the desired size, but not so much that when it bursts, the structure does not suffer. We glue the pasta together along the entire surface, leaving a couple of centimeters for the lid on top.It is better to use pasta gears (wheels) that can fit snugly together. When the structure dries well, pierce the ball and remove it. The stand can be glued to the bottom for stability, as shown in the photo.

2. The cover. To form the lid, again you need to inflate an elongated ball and paste a small fragment with the wheels. We remove the ball and glue the handle with the help of two curly pasta, and decorate the edges with spiral pasta or shells.

3. Saucer and cup. Here you need a real saucer, covered with foil on top. As in the case of the ball, pasta must be glued together in the shape of a saucer, and the contours should be decorated with shells. A cup is formed in a similar way.

When the details are formed, additional elements need to be glued to them - a handle to the cup, and a spout to the teapot. We are waiting for the craft to dry completely, and proceed to painting. It is better to arrange a service in one color, for example, white or silver. In this way we get a great product that can become a decoration of a room or a worthy gift.

To make such a decorative decoration as a panel of pasta, you will need a photo frame. First you need to sketch a sketch of a future painting on a cardboard surface and select the necessary forms of pasta. From spaghetti you can make the rays of the sun, stalks of plants, and "bows" can turn into cornflower-blue petals or butterfly wings. It is better to paint them in advance, since then it will be difficult to color each element without staining the substrate and adjacent parts.

Sometimes, in addition to pasta, other elements are involved in creating three-dimensional paintings - cereals, coffee beans, etc. When the drawing is ready and the material is collected, it is glued to the cardboard base, forming a picture. Such work is quite within the power of the child, only clay can be used instead of glue.

The simplest type of pasta crafts. Such jars will become an unusually original decoration of the kitchen, and making them quite simple. It is necessary to pick up several small cans (preferably of different shapes), wash and dry. Pasta is better to choose with different shapes. They must be painted in different colors with food coloring, as we told at the beginning of the article, thoroughly dried and arranged in jars. At the same time, one color that is most suitable for the interior of the kitchen can be made dominant so that the decoration looks harmonious. It is better to cover the covers with pieces of burlap and bandage them with a thick thread.

Making products with your own hands is very useful and interesting for children who acquire many skills during work. This kind of creativity develops imagination, improves motor skills, perseverance, and the ability to bring the job to the end and get an excellent result. It’s also a great way to spend time together. Children's crafts will be simple to enable you to work on your own child.

A simple craft that a child can do on his own. To do this, you need to choose the products of the desired shape, paint and dry them. Next, we take a strong thread or fishing line with a needle and string each detail in turn. Beads can be made multi-colored or monophonic. Such a jewelry will appeal to any fashionista. In the same way, it is easy to form a bracelet - then you get a complete set.

With the help of pasta butterflies, you can make many original hair clips, little rings, decorating them with bright colors and patterns. Here you will need the help of parents, since you need to stick with a hot gun.

This is a fairly popular type of children's creativity, which is often used in kindergartens. Depending on the age of the child, you can choose an application of varying complexity, so that the baby does most of the work on his own.For example, make funny sheep, as shown in the photo. To do this, cut out the torso from white paper (the sketch can be drawn by the parents), stick them on cardboard, and give the volume using pasta.

Plots can be very diverse - animals, flowers, the water world, etc. Moreover, they should be colorful and varied. To make it easier for the child to work, you can put a layer of plasticine on cardboard, to which the details of the picture will be molded.

Using spaghetti and pasta of various shapes, you can make a wide variety of New Year decorations. Most often, aerosol paints, such as bronze, gilding, silver, are used to paint them, which will give the product an unusually beautiful and solemn appearance. You can also use snow-white paint, reminiscent of a snowy winter.

Christmas balls are the most popular Christmas-tree decoration. To make it yourself from pasta, you will need a regular inflatable ball or a round blank, which can be bought at a needlework store. If you chose the second option, things will go much faster. The surface of the workpiece is simply pasted over with pasta, and then painted (do not forget to first make a loop for the toy to be hung on a branch).

If you have chosen a manufacturing method using a ball, you need to inflate it and fix it with a thread. Then we begin to gently stick pasta. An important point to consider here is that parts cannot be glued directly to the rubber surface; all elements are neatly glued together. It is better to give preference to small pasta, which is more convenient to paste on a round surface. When the Christmas ball is formed, you need to pierce the rubber mold, blow it off and carefully remove it. Next, glue the thread to the ball and paint.

To make a small but very beautiful Christmas tree, you need thick paper or cardboard, from which the conical base is formed. Next, select the material. As shown in the photo, the Christmas tree can be made from different forms of pasta.

The easiest way is to use spaghetti, but in this case the bulk will not work. If you want to get a fluffy beauty, you can take bows, feathers and other species. Since the tree will be in the same color, it is better to color the pasta in advance. We simply glue the prepared material to the base in tiers using a glue gun (PVA glue will not work here). The finished Christmas tree can be supplemented with beads, beads, rain and other decorations.

To make cute angels for a Christmas tree, we need the following details: a small ball-head (you can buy a foam blank), large pasta-tubes (body), small ones for hair, wheels (collars), horns (handles), bows (wings). We glue all the parts in turn, starting with the head and body. When the figure is ready, you can draw facial features, and decorate the body-mantle with pasta stars. Before designing the hairstyle, you need to remember to stick a loop.
