Crafts made from old objects and things to which you can return a second life can make your home much more comfortable. Some do-it-yourself homemade products for the household can significantly save the household budget, make work easier, or make the surrounding interior more interesting. And even if difficulties arise in the process, overcoming them will be worth it.

Homemade products for a home workshop

In almost any home there is always some set of tools necessary for the household. But sometimes situations arise when, to work in your own workshop or garage, you need some kind of device that cannot be purchased in the store or it is very expensive. In this case, a way out can be found by making it with your own hands.

Balloon Forge

This metal heating device will become an indispensable assistant in your home workshop. The forge can be safely used to make original items using artistic forging. These will be truly unique forged items.

For the furnace, it is best to use an empty 25 liter gas cylinder. Its ends are cut off with a grinder, and the furnace door and its rear part will be made from the cut parts. The inside of the cylinder is covered with refractory ceramic wool, which is able to withstand temperatures over 1200 0 C. From above, it is coated with fireclay clay (lined), which can withstand temperatures up to 1500 0 C. After lining, fireclay slabs or refractory bricks are placed on the bottom of the hearth.

A hole is drilled at the top and a small squeegee is inserted, allowing you to insert the nozzle of a gas burner, which can create a temperature in the hearth of more than 1000 0 C - quite enough to heat the metal to a certain temperature suitable for forging.

Dismountable garage crane

In the manufacture of such a lift, the cash costs will be much less than buying a factory model. To make it, you will have to spend only on materials, half of which, perhaps, can be found in the garage.

Materials required to assemble the lift:

1. Two racks - a profile pipe 100x100x2350.
2. Cross bar - a steel pipe of any length with a diameter of 100 mm.
3. Four supports for the bar - profile pipe 100x100x600.
4. Base and braces - corner with 100 mm shelves.
5. Two metal rope rollers.
6. Four wheels for movement.

For the lifting mechanism, it is best to use a worm-gear hand winch with a maximum load of up to 500 kg, which is attached to one of the crane legs.

The design does not take up much space in the workshop, easily moves on hard surfaces and is quite convenient for removing the engine from the car.

Mobile tool rack

The main highlight of this rack is its small size., but at the same time it is possible to place a large number of tools on it, and if necessary, quickly move it to any place or adjacent room. It is very convenient to use such a rack in your workshop or when carrying out construction and repair work in large rooms, especially when you often need to carry tools.

The rack can be assembled on the basis of a collapsible plastic rack installed on a homemade platform with wheels (cart). The platform is made precisely to the dimensions of the rack from a metal corner with 45x45 mm shelves or a sheet of plywood with a thickness of at least 10 mm. Furniture metal wheels are used for movement.

In addition to the rack, you can make and fix fasteners for building levels, extension cords and other tools that can be stored in a hanging position.

To help the hostess

There is not always a financial opportunity to buy, for example, something from new furniture in a furniture showroom or place an order for its production. But you can always get out of this situation by making the right thing with your own hands, while making it attractive and unique, using available means for this.

Cork backsplash

A backsplash is a wall surface between a worktop and wall units. Usually this part of the wall is tiled. But to cover it, it is possible to use many other materials, for example, to glue wine corks on the wall.

This exclusive decor looks pretty gorgeous.

Before gluing, each cork is cut lengthwise into two halves with a sharp clerical knife. It is advisable to paint the wall black, which will accentuate the seams between the corks.

The corks are glued to the wall using liquid nails in a checkerboard pattern or with a certain pattern, since it is unlikely that they can be laid out perfectly exactly, and the curved rows will visually look disgusting.

The corks themselves are not afraid of moisture, but they quickly get dirty and poorly washed, so it is best to cover them with a glass screen made of tempered glass. True, you will have to spend a little money on it and order glass in a special workshop, where they will cut it to a given size and make holes for sockets and fasteners.

The glass is fixed to the wall with anchor dowels, which can be purchased at almost any hardware store.

While an apron decorated with wine corks can be expensive, the results achieved will be worth it.

The surface of the countertop, as well as the wall, can be decorated with corks and covered with tempered glass.

Hinged folding table

A folding table mounted on the wall allows you to save some space in the apartment. In the unfolded state, it can protrude from the wall at a distance of no more than 10 cm and does not bother anyone at all, but when unfolded it can replace a full-fledged table.

There are many options where you can use a folding table fixed to the wall. Here are just a few of the most basic ones:

Shower for giving

There is probably nothing better than freshening up under the tap of water on a hot summer day, especially if he went to work in the garden. Naturally, only a shower will solve this problem and remove the fatigue that has accumulated during the day.

The shower can be installed independently without the involvement of outside help, the main thing is to choose a place for it and decide on the type of shower cabin.

Three types of cabins stand out among summer showers., which you can freely build on your own:

Installing a simple shower is done in this way:

1. The frame of the shower stall is made, which can be assembled from metal, wooden beams or other materials at hand.
2. A metal or plastic water container is installed on the roof of the assembled frame, which can have a volume of 50 to 200 liters.
3. It is advisable to paint the metal container black for better water heating. Additionally, several electric heating elements can be installed in the container, then you can take a shower in cloudy weather.

The booth can be sheathed with boards, plywood, slate, or simply covered with tarpaulin or cellophane wrap with folding canopies.

For self-construction

The topic of construction or renovation probably worries everyone. And, of course, everyone who deals with it wants to finish it as soon as possible with minimal financial costs. Therefore, if you want to save money, you can make some materials for construction on your own. For example, it can be wall SIP panels or such a useful tool as a vibrating plate, the need for which often arises for many owners of a personal plot.

Homemade SIP panels

For their manufacture, you need to prepare a flat, hard platform. Laying on it a sheet of OSB with a thickness of 10-12 mm with a rubber spatula with teeth, apply glue to it.

Then put sheets of foam grade 25-30 on the glue. After that, on top of the laid foam plastic, as well as on the bottom OSB plate, an adhesive mass is applied, and the second OSB sheet is laid on top.

If several panels are being made at the same time, stacked in a pile, work should be done quickly, until the glue hardens. Usually, in this way, no more than 4-5 panels can be prepared at a time.

After the blank for the formed slabs, you need to create pressure using a press. Since, naturally, there is no hydraulic press at home, it can be replaced with a thick plywood sheet laid on the prepared SIP-plates over the entire plane and loaded for 2-3 hours, for example, with several bags of cement, sand or other cargo. You can even use a passenger car, driving onto a plywood sheet along a pre-made overpass.

After the glue has completely dried, the homemade panels will be ready, they can be folded into a separate pile and start preparing new panels. The manufactured panels should lie already without load for another day, after which they can be used for their intended purpose.

Vibratory plate manufacturing

To make a homemade vibrating plate, you will need to prepare:

1. An electric motor with an eccentric of the IV-98E brand, which is the main part of the vibrating plate.
2. Steel sheet, at least 8 mm thick, size 450x800 mm. It can be ordered at any metal warehouse.
3. Two pieces of a channel with a length of no more than 400 mm.
4. An inch tube for the handle and two rubber grommets for attaching it.
5. From the tools you will need a welding machine, a grinder and a set of wrenches.

On the narrow sides of the slab, stepping back from the edges by 80-100 mm, make an incision with a grinder to a depth of about 5 mm. After that, bend the edges towards the notch at an angle of approximately 25 0 and weld them. Bends are needed so that the vibrating plate does not sink into the material it compresses and moves freely along its surface.

Then, across the plate at a certain distance, calculated for the fastening of the electric motor, two channels are welded with the shelves down. An electric vibrator is attached to them through the pre-drilled holes in the channel using M10 bolts.

The tube handle attaches to the vibrator through soft rubber grommets available from your auto store or hardware store in the hardware department.

Thus, you can make a lot of useful things in the household with your own hands, spending only part of the money that would have to be paid when buying a finished product. You just need to make some effort and have certain skills.

A summer cottage is the territory where you can give yourself freedom to carry out numerous experiments and dream up to your heart's content. This manifests itself not only in interior design, but mainly in the design of the garden or vegetable garden. Inquisitive and resourceful owners have not been guided by expensive and standard methods for arranging their sites for a long time, since there are many alternative solutions for virtually all areas of activity.

There are several types of vertical beds that optimize the use of free space. Non-standard designs are an excellent opportunity to create an interesting design for a garden, a vegetable garden, a summer cottage.

This type of garden bed is mostly used for growing ornamental plants or herbs.

Materials for making:

The length of the drainpipes is regulated in accordance with the wishes of the owner of the site. However, cumbersome beds should not be made, as they can complicate movement across the territory.

Creating a garden bed

Stage 1. Create a container. To do this, we take a drainpipe, cut it in half lengthwise and put on special plugs on both sides.

Stage 2. We take the prepared metal holders, put them on the resulting frames for the beds.

Stage 3. We make holes in the pipe. They are made in those places where metal fasteners will be located.

Stage 4. We pass a cable or a strong rope through the holes made.

Stage 5. We fix the cable / rope with fasteners.

Stage 6. We fill the resulting beds with expanded clay and soil.

Stage 7. We plant the plants in the beds.

Stage 8. We hang the pipes to the chosen place. Sometimes a special wooden crossbar is placed for this, or rather a construction in the shape of the letter "P".

Step 9. Alternatively, you can make a special design for the pipes.

Important! A bed of drainpipes is not resistant to strong gusty winds, so you should choose a place for it that is not blown from four sides by winds. Otherwise, the frame will quickly collapse, nullifying all your efforts.

A bed made of a plastic bag is another modification of vertical beds. It is extremely compact, functional and externally interesting. You can make such a bed in a couple of hours.

Materials for making:

• durable plastic wrap;
• sewing machine;
• priming;
• seedling.

In order for the bed to be solid, it is recommended to pay special attention to the thickness of the polyethylene film, which in this case will act as the "frame" of the structure. The minimum film thickness is 0.2 mm.

The process of creating a plastic bed

Step 1 . We cut out 2 rectangular film segments, the size of which corresponds to the size of the created bed. An allowance of one and a half to two centimeters should be left on each side. The recommended bed diameter is twenty centimeters.

Step 2. Sew the rectangles together, leaving only the upper part of the bag unconnected.

Step 3. Sew a handle to the future garden bed, the strength of which will support the weight of the bag filled with soil. It should also be borne in mind that when watering, the weight will increase.

Step 4. Fill the bag with fertilized soil.

Step 5. We make horizontal cuts on the bag in twenty centimeters increments. They are necessary in order to plant seedlings in the garden bed.

Step 6. We plant seedlings.

Step 7. Water the soil regularly and add the necessary fertilizers.

With these simple steps, you can get a cheap and useful garden bed.

An integral part of every summer cottage is a compost heap. This is the place where all kinds of biochemical reactions take place that ensure the creation of fertilizers.

To create fertilizers that will satisfy all the requirements for them, you should carefully consider several key steps: creating a container and directly making the correct compost itself. Let's talk about each of them in more detail.

Stage 1. Take eight support posts of the same length.

Stage 2. We treat the lower part of the wooden posts with engine oil or tar.

Stage 3. We dig the posts into the ground so that they are reliable and stable. If the compost bin will be located next to the fence, then 4 posts (i.e. one side) can be attached to the fence. This will avoid having to dig 4 holes.

Stage 4. Between each two adjacent posts we nail the crossbeams so that we end up with three independent sections. Be sure to leave slots that will function as ventilation holes.

Stage 5. In two sections, we nail the boards horizontally to half the height of the posts. In these places, it is planned to create two small doors.

Step 6. The remaining section will have a large door, so only one plank should be nailed down. It should be located at the very bottom in a horizontal position, that is, like a regular crossbar.

Stage 7. Installing the covers. You can use one large solid board for this.

Stage 8. Install the pre-prepared doors.

Stage 9. We provide doors with handles and latches.

Stage 10. We process wood using special impregnations.

Step 11. Paint the box any color that suits your preferences.

Many gardeners mistakenly believe that any component can be dumped into a compost heap. In fact, to create the right biofertilizer, you need to carefully select the "ingredients".

Among the mandatory components of a compost heap are the following:

• peat;
• ash;
• needles;
• tree branches;
• leaves;
• hay or grass;
• wood ash;
• plant roots;
• raw vegetables and fruits, etc.

All elements are randomly mixed on the heap. To speed up chemical reactions, it is recommended to cover the pile with a tarpaulin (this is especially true in the absence of a box).

Trips to the country house with the family involve the presence of entertainment elements on the site that will delight children. The most common way to keep young summer residents busy is with a swing.

Building a swing yourself is not an easy task, but quite doable. Of course, you can always take a stick, tie it with a rope and hang the structure on a tree, but this can hardly be called a full swing. True craftsmen prefer to build comfortable structures with a comfortable seating position.

Constructive components:

• two logs;
• strong rope.

Indicators:

• diameter of logs - 85 mm;
• length of logs - 700 mm;
• distance between ropes - 500 mm.

Making a swing

Stage 1. We stretch the ropes between the logs.

Stage 2. We wrap each log with ropes.

Stage 3. We release the ropes out.

Stage 4. We tighten the ropes by 3 knots.

Stage 5. We fix the swing on the tree.

Important: such a swing is designed for only one person.

Garden path from scrap materials

There are several types of garden paths that you can easily do with your own hands.

Step 1. Remove the sidewall from the tire using a knife or saw.

Step 2. Cut the tires.

Step 3. We line the space with grooved stripes.

Step 4. We paint the path with paint.

Step 5. Sprinkle with stone chips.

This is an economical option for those who do not want to rack their brains and spend time on a full-fledged garden path. The tire track is usually used for vegetable gardens, as it easily fits into the ground.

Stage 1. We paint the corks in different colors.

Stage 2. We dig a small trench.

Stage 3. We drive in supports to strengthen the future track.

Stage 4. We build the formwork using boards.

Stage 5. Install spacers along the edges of the trench.

Stage 6. We place crushed stone deep into the trench and carefully tamp it.

Stage 7. We make a mortar from sand, cement, glue and water.

Stage 8. Pour the solution into the trench.

Stage 9. Press the plugs in random order. Even multi-colored stripes look interesting.

These are the easiest and fastest ways to make a garden path without purchasing expensive materials.

DIY tools

The expression "everything will come in handy on the farm" turns out to be as relevant as possible when it comes to canisters. From this plastic container, you can make a large number of irreplaceable tools that are actively used in the process of summer cottage work.

To make this tool, we only need a sharp knife and the container itself.

Stage 1. Cut off the bottom of the canister.

Stage 2. We mark the cut line for the scoop on the container so that the handle from the canister is the handle of the future tool.

Stage 3. Cut off excess material.

As a result of these simple steps, we get an excellent scoop with a comfortable handle.

Materials:

Manufacturing

Stage 1. Carefully wash the canister so that there is no smell left in it.

Stage 2. We cut the canister vertically into two parts.

Stage 3. We make a groove on the plank using a woodworking machine.

Stage 4. Apply glue to the plywood and insert into the bottom of the canister.

Stage 5. We paint the resulting shelf with a spray can.

Of course, such a structure will not withstand a lot of weight, but it is quite suitable for storing small parts.

Materials:

• 40 cans;
• scissors;
• rope;
• paper;
• marker.

Stage 1. We pierce the upper part of the cans with a knife.

Stage 2. We make a stencil out of paper.

Stage 3. We apply it to the canister, outline it with a marker.

Step 4. Cut out large holes with scissors.

Stage 5. We put the prepared cans in several rows, tying each row by prying the rope under the handles of the containers.

Stage 6. We tie all the rows around the perimeter for greater strength.

Stage 7. If the cabinet is planned to lean against the wall, then we drill it to the surface.

Stage 8. We put heavy objects in the bottom row - stones or bricks.

The result is a fairly spacious and functional rack that will help get rid of the issue of storing many small parts.

Be resourceful and courageous in bringing your ideas to life. Good luck!

Video - DIY homemade products for giving

Video - We do it ourselves for a summer residence

You have successfully entered the youtube video "Hands from the Shoulders". The presenter just has a great portion of homemade ideas for the household.

1. Everyone had to beat off the oil paint from the wall at least once. Not a pleasant experience. If there is still work to be done like this, a great way to make this process easier. It is very simple to make such a scapula. And the time saved is better spent on something more pleasant and useful. Now you don't have to scrape the wall with your own hands. Great idea for a household.

2. If there is no hammer drill, well, there is a grinder, then using a diamond cup, you can also do this work. Having made a casing with a nozzle for a vacuum cleaner, get rid of most of the were. Without a casing, I will be so much that you can easily turn into a snowman.

3. When working with curved parts, it is often necessary to know their dimensions. You can, of course, attach a rope or wire. There is a better way. A homemade curvimeter will tell you the length of the curved track. We twist the roller all the way to the handle. We draw a curvimeter along the line to be measured. At the same time, the roller is unscrewed by a certain distance. Next, it remains to take a tape measure and measure the distance to complete twisting.

4. Many live in private houses or have summer cottages or vegetable gardens. The hot season will come when you have to plant seedlings. In order not to crawl on all fours in the beds, there is a cool device. You probably wouldn't expect tedious work to be done quickly and easily. The author claims that with this method, to facilitate the work of agricultural workers, up to 2,000 bushes can be planted in a day. If the seedlings are planted in large cups, or have already greatly outgrown, then the option with a shorter tube will do.

The principle of a home-made device for planting cabbage: a 100 mm pipe, two triangular plates rolled up with a groove are welded from below, one tightly, the second on a hinge, plus a leg with a return spring to it, at 30, 45 degrees. To the pipe there is a support plate for adjusting the planting depth. Bucket handles and ring. A bit of scrap metal and half a day of work.

5. When planting potatoes, there is also an interesting alternative to a shovel. This homemade design is even simpler than the previous one.

6. An interesting idea of ​​a clamp for a drilling machine. It will allow you to securely fix the workpieces without resorting to a vice. Thanks to the lever, the necessary pressure is achieved to hold the parts.

7. Super compact version of folding goat, homemade product will definitely come in handy on the farm. The legs are interconnected by springs.

DIY creative homemade products for the household

Homemade products for the household will help to make the house cozier and more comfortable. Handmade devices, decorating old household items will give a second life to things, which will significantly save your budget. It will also allow you to decorate the environment, make the interior more creative. Some homemade products for the household will visually increase the space and create comfort.

Folding armchair

There is not always a financial opportunity to purchase some furniture in the store. You can successfully get out of this situation if you make crafts and homemade products for your home with your own hands. For example, you just need to make a folding chair from wooden blocks and canvas fabric.

The folding part (chair legs) is attached with hinges or sits on a metal pin, which is fixed with nuts from the edges. The tarpaulin is cut with two rectangles, on the sides of which grooves for the bars are covered. The side parts of the top of the chair (backrest frame with armrests) are made in the form of the letter "L9raquo;" They are connected with bolts or self-tapping screws. It should be remembered that the folding bottom section must be locked in the working position. Therefore, not far from the connecting pin on the legs of the chair, you need to attach a metal hook - it will stably close this structure.

Who cooks porridge in the house, gathers guests

Craftsmen familiar with a saw and a drill can even make a children's room in a small apartment. To do this, you need to build something like a screen with doors and windows from plywood or other fairly light material. The corner joints of the slabs will mimic the corners of the house. Having painted a homemade screen accordingly, the master will turn it into a miniature children's teremok.

You just need to make sure that this screen can be firmly attached to the walls. After all, the safety of children is above all! And inside, a children's table, a crib, and a box with toys will fit quite well.

And you can even sew a house for a child. For such walls, any bright fabric that can be simply hung on a rope, wire or hard cornice is quite suitable.

Knitted furniture

Today it has become extremely fashionable to make ottomans and benches with your own hands. They use such homemade products for the household, storing various items inside: toys, bedding, pots, cereals. They can be placed in the kitchen, in the nursery, or in the living room. They are also very convenient for relaxing both in a city apartment and in the country.

To make creative knitted furniture with storage boxes, you first need to make a frame for it. The bench consists of a rectangular box fixed on legs. The soft part is knitted in the form of a rectangular parallelogram without one base and put on the lid. An elastic band can be inserted into the lower part to create an elegant "upholstery9raquo;" pulled together at the bottom of the bench.

The pouf can be made both square and cylindrical. To do this, vertical posts are stuffed around the circumference of the lower wooden base, which are then connected on top with thick wire. Plywood shields are stuffed between the racks so that from the "vault9raquo; things did not fall out.

The upper round base is cut out separately. The soft part is knitted in the form of a cylinder, fixed on the upper part of the pouf. It is put on top of the pouf like a hat box lid.

Use of used clothing in homemade products

Anyone who has a collection of useful tips for the household must make the following entry into it: “Do not throw away the thing before you are convinced of its complete dilapidation. Try to give each item a second life! "

Old clothes, for example, can be knitted or woven into creative upholstery. Unnecessary tights are widely used, which are cut in a spiral, slightly stretched to twist the strip into a tube. You can use other material, also cutting it into strips and stitching them together. Yarn9raquo; unwound into a ball, from which they then knit with fingers or weave a cloth.

Knitting without needles repeats the algorithm of regular knitting. Only the loops are held directly on the toes. And the thread is pulled by them too.

For weaving, you can use a frame, along the edges of which nails are stuffed. The thread is first laid crosswise, clasping symmetrically located nails. They should all cross at one point in the middle of the frame. Then the end of the thread from the material is tied to the center and they begin to weave the canvas in a circular manner.

And the old refrigerator is in business

As a homemade product for a household, you can use large household appliances that have served their time. And then, instead of the dreary pulling out of the washing machine or refrigerator into the trash heap, a creative necessary thing may appear in the house. It will be both beautiful and useful.

The technique of converting refrigerators into incubators has long existed. However, such a thing is required only for those who are engaged in poultry farming and live in rural areas. But such original homemade products for home and summer cottages from refrigerators, such as chests tied with fabric threads, will become a decoration of the home and will allow you to hide many useful gizmos in them.

To make this piece of furniture, you need to remove the device motor. If we now put the refrigerator with the door up, then the frame of the chest is almost ready. It remains only to tie the cape and sew on the upper part of the foam pad, cutting out a hole in it where the handle will hide.

The cape should be made in the form of a rectangular parallelogram without a lower base. To make it easier to use the chest, you can sew a zipper 9raquo; lock into the side.

It's about painting - everything will be like in a fairy tale

Non-working refrigerators can also be easily converted into lockers. One has only to conjure over their decor. You can make a creative piece of furniture in a cartoon style for a nursery or a fantasy style for a hallway, in an antique style for a living room or in a music room for an office. It all depends on the fantasy of the master.

Although the working refrigerator will become more creative if you paint it or stick an original film sticker on the casing. This will also protect the surface of the unit from scratches and corrosion.

Kitchen appliances decor

You can simply decorate not entirely new household items with stickers, applique, or paint pictures on the paneling with paints for metal surfaces. The thing will again become pleasing to the eye and sparkle with fresh colors. In just a few hours, you can completely change the look of the kitchen, without even making homemade products for the household from scratch.

Microwave ovens, washing machines, cupboards and pencil cases are decorated with both picture-drawings and voluminous decorations are glued on them.

Each person, using his skillful hands, can create unique and even luxurious items for his home. One has only to think a little and make an effort.

Hanging beds

There are several types of vertical beds that optimize the use of free space. Non-standard designs are an excellent opportunity to create an interesting design for a garden, a vegetable garden, a summer cottage.

Garden beds

This type of garden bed is mostly used for growing ornamental plants or herbs.

Materials for making:

• drainpipes;
• plugs - 2 pieces per pipe;
• steel wire;
• fasteners.

The length of the drainpipes is regulated in accordance with the wishes of the owner of the site. However, cumbersome beds should not be made, as they can complicate movement across the territory.

Stage 1. Create a container. To do this, we take a drainpipe, cut it in half lengthwise and put on special plugs on both sides.

Stage 2. We take the prepared metal holders, put them on the resulting frames for the beds.

Stage 3. We make holes in the pipe. They are made in those places where metal fasteners will be located.

Stage 4. We pass a cable or a strong rope through the holes made.

Stage 5. We fix the cable / rope with fasteners.

Stage 6. We fill the resulting beds with expanded clay and soil.

Stage 7. We plant the plants in the beds.

Stage 8. We hang the pipes to the chosen place. Sometimes a special wooden crossbar is placed for this, or rather a construction in the shape of the letter "P".

Step 9. Alternatively, you can make a special design for the pipes.

Important! A bed of drainpipes is not resistant to strong gusty winds, so you should choose a place for it that is not blown from four sides by winds. Otherwise, the frame will quickly collapse, nullifying all your efforts.

Beds on the walls

Bed made of polyethylene

Bed made of polyethylene

A bed made of a plastic bag is another modification of vertical beds. It is extremely compact, functional and externally interesting. You can make such a bed in a couple of hours.

Bed made of polyethylene

Materials for making:

• durable plastic wrap;
• sewing machine;
• priming;
• seedling.

In order for the bed to be solid, it is recommended to pay special attention to the thickness of the polyethylene film, which in this case will act as the "frame" of the structure. The minimum film thickness is 0.2 mm.

The process of creating a plastic bed

Step 1. Cut out 2 rectangular pieces of film, the size of which corresponds to the size of the created bed. An allowance of one and a half to two centimeters should be left on each side. The recommended bed diameter is twenty centimeters.

Step 2. Sew the rectangles together, leaving only the upper part of the bag unconnected.

Step 3. Sew a handle to the future garden bed, the strength of which will support the weight of the bag filled with soil. It should also be borne in mind that when watering, the weight will increase.

Step 4. Fill the bag with fertilized soil.

Step 5. We make horizontal cuts on the bag in twenty centimeters increments. They are necessary in order to plant seedlings in the garden bed.

Step 6. We plant seedlings.

Step 7. Water the soil regularly and add the necessary fertilizers.

With these simple steps, you can get a cheap and useful garden bed.

DIY compost pile

DIY compost pile

An integral part of every summer cottage is a compost heap. This is the place where all kinds of biochemical reactions take place that ensure the creation of fertilizers.

To create fertilizers that will satisfy all the requirements for them, you should carefully consider several key steps: creating a container and directly making the correct compost itself. Let's talk about each of them in more detail.

Making a compost bin

Making a compost bin

Stage 1. Take eight support posts of the same length.

Stage 2. We treat the lower part of the wooden posts with engine oil or tar.

Stage 3. We dig the posts into the ground so that they are reliable and stable. If the compost bin will be located next to the fence, then 4 posts (i.e. one side) can be attached to the fence. This will avoid having to dig 4 holes.

The posts can be attached to the fence

Stage 4. Between each two adjacent posts we nail the crossbeams so that we end up with three independent sections. Be sure to leave slots that will function as ventilation holes.

Assembling the frame of a compost bin for a summer cottage

Stage 5. In two sections, we nail the boards horizontally to half the height of the posts. In these places, it is planned to create two small doors.

Compost bin layout for 2 sections

Step 6. The remaining section will have a large door, so only one plank should be nailed down. It should be located at the very bottom in a horizontal position, that is, like a regular crossbar.

Stage 7. Installing the covers. You can use one large solid board for this.

Stage 8. Install the pre-prepared doors.

Stage 9. We provide doors with handles and latches.

Stage 10. We process wood using special impregnations.

Step 11. Paint the box any color that suits your preferences.

Making a compost heap

Making a compost heap

Many gardeners mistakenly believe that any component can be dumped into a compost heap. In fact, to create the right biofertilizer, you need to carefully select the "ingredients".

Among the mandatory components of a compost heap are the following:

• peat;
• ash;
• needles;
• tree branches;
• leaves;
• hay or grass;
• wood ash;
• plant roots;
• raw vegetables and fruits, etc.

All elements are randomly mixed on the heap. To speed up chemical reactions, it is recommended to cover the pile with a tarpaulin (this is especially true in the absence of a box).

Swing for giving

Swing for giving

Trips to the country house with the family involve the presence of entertainment elements on the site that will delight children. The most common way to keep young summer residents busy is with a swing.

Building a swing yourself is not an easy task, but quite doable. Of course, you can always take a stick, tie it with a rope and hang the structure on a tree, but this can hardly be called a full swing. True craftsmen prefer to build comfortable structures with a comfortable seating position.

To press out / press in bearings, press / compress parts, you will need to build a frame and a removable movable stop. The frame consists of 4 channels welded to each other. At the top, the structure is reinforced with stiffening ribs (kerchiefs), at the bottom, transverse corners are added, giving the frame stability.

  

  DIY hydraulic press from a jack

  The stop is pulled in a normal position to the upper crossbar of the frame by powerful springs. A hydraulic jack is installed between them, if necessary, pressing the stop to the lower crossbar of the frame. The force of the press is regulated by a jack, the dimensions of the working area are selected depending on the size of the workpieces.

Homemade products for the household will help to make the house cozier and more comfortable. Handmade devices, decorating old household items will give a second life to things, which will significantly save your budget. It will also allow you to decorate the environment, make the interior more creative. Some homemade products for the household will visually increase the space and create comfort.

Folding armchair

There is not always a financial opportunity to purchase some furniture in the store. You can successfully get out of this situation if you make crafts with your own hands. For example, it is enough just to make from and

The folding part (chair legs) is attached with hinges or sits on a metal pin, which is fixed with nuts from the edges. The tarpaulin is cut with two rectangles, on the sides of which grooves for the bars are covered. The side parts of the top of the chair (backrest frame with armrests) are made in the form of the letter "L". They are connected with bolts or self-tapping screws. It should be remembered that the folding bottom section must be locked in the working position. Therefore, not far from the connecting pin on the legs of the chair, you need to attach a metal hook - it will stably close this structure.

Who cooks porridge in the house, gathers guests

Craftsmen familiar with a saw and a drill can even make a children's room in a small apartment. To do this, you need to build something like a screen with doors and windows from plywood or other fairly light material. The corner joints of the slabs will mimic the corners of the house. Having painted a homemade screen accordingly, the master will turn it into a miniature children's teremok.

You just need to make sure that this screen can be firmly attached to the walls. After all, the safety of children is above all! And inside, a children's table, a crib, and a box with toys will fit quite well.

And you can even sew any bright fabric that can be simply hung on a rope, wire or hard cornice is quite suitable for such walls.

Knitted furniture

Today, it has become extremely fashionable to make benches. They use such homemade products for the household, storing various items inside: toys, bedding, pots, cereals. They can be placed in the kitchen, in the nursery, or in the living room. They are also very convenient for relaxing both in a city apartment and in the country.

To make furniture with storage boxes, you first need to make a frame for it. The bench consists of a rectangular box fixed on legs. The soft part is knitted in the form of a rectangular parallelogram without one base and put on the lid. An elastic band can be inserted into the lower part so that the elegant "upholstery" is pulled together at the bottom of the bench.

The pouf can be made both square and cylindrical. To do this, vertical posts are stuffed around the circumference of the lower wooden base, which are then connected on top with thick wire. Plywood shields are stuffed between the racks so that things do not fall out of the "storage".

The upper round base is cut out separately. The soft part is knitted in the form of a cylinder, fixed on the upper part of the pouf. It is put on top of the pouf like a hat box lid.

Use of used clothing in homemade products

Anyone who has a collection of useful tips for the household must make the following entry into it: “Do not throw away the thing before you are convinced of its complete dilapidation. Try to give each item a second life! "

Old clothes, for example, can be knitted or woven into creative upholstery. Unnecessary tights are widely used, which are cut in a spiral, slightly stretched to twist the strip into a tube. You can use other material, also cutting it into strips and stitching them together. The "yarn" is wound into a ball, from which it is then knitted with the fingers or woven into a cloth.

Knitting without needles repeats the algorithm of regular knitting. Only the loops are held directly on the toes. And the thread is pulled by them too.

For weaving, you can use a frame, along the edges of which nails are stuffed. The thread is first laid crosswise, clasping symmetrically located nails. They should all cross at one point in the middle of the frame. Then the end of the thread from the material is tied to the center and they begin to weave the canvas in a circular manner.

And the old refrigerator is in business

As a homemade product for a household, you can use large household appliances that have served their time. And then, instead of the dreary pulling out of the washing machine or refrigerator into the trash heap, a creative necessary thing may appear in the house. It will be both beautiful and useful.

The technique of converting refrigerators into incubators has long existed. However, such a thing is required only for those who are engaged in poultry farming and live in rural areas. But such original homemade products for home and summer cottages from refrigerators, such as chests tied with fabric threads, will become a decoration of the home and will allow you to hide many useful gizmos in them.

To make this piece of furniture, you need to remove the device motor. If we now put the refrigerator with the door up, then the frame of the chest is almost ready. It remains only to tie the cape and sew on the upper part of the foam pad, cutting out a hole in it where the handle will hide.

The cape should be made in the form of a rectangular parallelogram without a lower base. To make it easier to use the chest, you can sew a zipper lock into the side.

It's about painting - everything will be like in a fairy tale

Non-working refrigerators can also be easily converted into lockers. One has only to conjure over their decor. You can make a creative piece of furniture in a cartoon style for a nursery or a fantasy style for a hallway, in an antique style for a living room or in a music room for an office. It all depends on the fantasy of the master.

Although the working refrigerator will become more creative if you paint it or stick an original film sticker on the casing. This will also protect the surface of the unit from scratches and corrosion.

Kitchen appliances decor

You can simply decorate not entirely new household items with stickers, applique, or paint pictures on the paneling with paints for metal surfaces. The thing will again become pleasing to the eye and sparkle with fresh colors. In just a few hours, you can completely change the look of the kitchen, without even making homemade products for the household from scratch.

Microwave ovens, washing machines, cupboards and pencil cases are decorated with both picture-drawings and voluminous decorations are glued on them.

Each person, using his skillful hands, can create unique and even luxurious items for his home. One has only to think a little and make an effort.
