  • Plastic ball (or papier-mâché);
  • Super glue;
  • Brown coffee grains;
  • Storm for the trunk;
  • Small pot (from cardboard or present);
  • Twine thread for winding;
  • Small pebbles.

First take the ball that will serve a crown of wood, and piercing it. Insert a wand that performs the role of the trunk. Now you need to install a tree in a pot and fix it.

To do this, keep the wand smoothly and gradually fall asleep pebbles. This will make the design more stable. When the tree is normally installed, proceed to gluing the coffee beans themselves using glue. It is advisable to perform several layers so that there is no space between the grains and voids. Swords use at the end for the trunk winding.

In the same way you can make a Christmas tree. This original idea is not suitable for the New Year holidays. Instead of a ball make a cone from cardboard. All other works are also held. But among other things, the Christmas tree can be decorated to look like a truly festive. For this use ribbons, beads, sequins.

Coffee Coffee Waterfall or Coffee Cup

Fresh aromatic coffee is obtained not only after cooking. You can make a fairly interesting handicraft, the so-called cup with coffee or coffee waterfall. To work, you will need:

  1. Coffee couple – a cup and saucer;
  2. Wire for weaving (basics of waterfall). It is desirable that it be aluminum, with a diameter of about 2 mm;
  3. Leg-split;
  4. Glue «Moment» or «Second»;
  5. Coffee grains – near a glass.

In special needlework stores you can buy a wire for weaving. She plastic and pretty soft. Cut it on 3-5 parts about 15 cm long, but it is possible longer or shorter.

We connect the parts into a bundle and drip some glue to the tip so that they do not spread, and then wrap it with a twine. Such a measure will allow you to better combine all the pieces of wire and glue the grain to it.

Now you need to pass it so that one end is inside the cup, and the other – at the bottom of the plate. It is necessary to carefully fix it in this position with the help of glue. The latter is best to take the second, but acceptable and hot glue, which is applied using a thermal system.

We are waiting for the jokes dried. Then set the saucer and cup in accordance with the law of equilibrium. Wire will make it without problems. Otherwise, the handicraft will constantly fall and as a result sometime breaks.

After the first layer gets dry, proceed to the second, but now the grains must be turned «seam» out. Need them need to be intervals between the bottom grains.

The lower part of the craft is drawn up quite slowly and the material goes more on it, but at neat work it will work very beautiful. After that, you need to give a craft to dry and you can put it on a prominent place. The smell of glue quickly disappears, but the aroma of coffee will remain.
