Foam from mounting foam

Each owner of his site wants to make it beautiful, unusual and cozy. In order to translate this idea into reality, we suggest you try to make a hand-made sculpture of a kolobok with your own hands from mounting foam and improvised materials.

How to make a kolobok?

First of all, we reserve all necessary:

Let's get to work.

  1. We impose on our basis several layers of foam, drying each well for about 15-20 minutes. Notice how the foam increases in size? Consider this for the future. If you are holding a foam gun for the first time, we will give you a small tip: near the handle is a cog, which you can adjust the thickness of the jet.
  2. From the wire we make pens. We bend it, insert it into the body of the future kolobok and fill it up, not forgetting to dry the layers.
  3. A foam is also used for the kerchief headband. If suddenly it turned out to apply it not exactly exactly, then use the knife, gently giving the desired shape.
  4. From the cardboard we cut out the ears of the bow. We cut them into a kerchief from above and just like everything else, we make a fuss.
  5. Brusochki, prepared for the legs, we work with foam and attach it to the body of the kolobok.
  6. After half an hour after applying the last layer, when the figure dries, cut off all unnecessary and go to the formation of the face, carving the eyes, nose and mouth.
  7. All that's left is to decorate your hero. There is a small trick here. Paint is best to choose an oil. After painting the figure twice, take it out into the street. After staying a couple of days in the sun, the foam will settle a little, and yellow patches may appear. After this "airing" it is worth dyeing the kolobok for the third time.
  8. If you want your colobok to be bright, then after the last coat of paint has dried, cover it with varnish. If in the future plan to create another figure, then try to find a ship's varnish, tk. it compared with other varnishes gives a lesser yellowness effect. But for kolobok any varnish for external works will approach.

That's so quick and easy you can create a real fairy tale on your site that will please not only children but also adults. From the mounting foam, you can make not only crafts on the subject of a kolobok, but a huge number of interesting and uncomplicated sculptures that will stand for more than one year. Only if you go out at night, do not be frightened of your creations, well, do not forget to warn them about them.
