Description :
Take a second and think before you discard anything, it might just be the perfect base to create something of utility in your homes. This DIY is a classic example of just that. We have recycled a tin container into a quirky and cute plant holder.
Take a tin container and clean it well.
Using a sharp pair of scissors, cut out a window in the centre as you see in the image. Take care while doing this as the edges will be sharp.
Take Fevicryl Mouldit – resin base & hardener, mix well to make a soft even dough. Roll it into a medium thin slab using a rolling pin. The pigs would be made with this dough slab.
Take the dough, border the window using clay carving tools, stick using Fevicryl Fabric Glue. Create a texture that resembles natural wood.
Apply a generous layer of Fevicryl 3D Outliner – White 707, on the periphery of the tin.
While still wet, run a comb all along the periphery of the tin, to create a combed effect.
Take the dough slab, using a paper cutter, cut out shapes of little pig faces. Make the snout, ears and little feet using the same clay and stick appropriately using Fabric Glue.
Paint the periphery of the container using Fevicyl Acrylic Colours - Burnt Sienna 01, Black 02 and Dark Brown 05, to get a gold burnished look. Paint the pig faces using Pink 18 with a tinge of White 27. Let it dry.
Paint the facial features for the pigs using Black 02, White 27, Teal Blue 68 and Salmon Pink 65. Your cute little plant holder is now ready.
