❣DIY Inn Fairy House Lamp Using Coke Plastic Bottles❣

Hello, in this tutorial I show you how I made a fairy house inn lamp using two coke plastic bottles, tin foil, paint, hot glue and paper clay. This is a great way to teach children about recycling and also stimulate their creativity and imagination.
I got asked if I ever draw the fairy house first, or if I make it up as I go along. In this video I decided to include the sketch I made for the fairy house. I usually go to work having a general idea of what I'm about to create. Knowing exactly the materials and the plastic bottles I'm about to use, I can draw the basic shape of the house. After I have the sketch of the fairy house ready, I start cutting. I first cut the small 0,5 liters coke plastic bottle in two pieces and the big 2,5 liters coke plastic bottle in three pieces. I glued the pieces together in a crooked way. Next step is to build the rest of the house using tin foil and hot glue. This is a fast way to achieve a basic volume that will be the base for our paper clay. Using tin foil I built the roof cones, the chimney the door arch and the small roof above the entrance. I also built the stairs this way. You should now have the general shape of your fairy house. Cover everything with paper clay. You should work in two layers, one for covering the surface and the second one for the details like windows, door, wood texture, bark, mushrooms, door steps, roof tiles. When making the windows keep in mind it will be a lamp so you should draw as many windows as you can so the light will come out nicely. After the paper clay is dry you can easily add more details like I did for some of the windows. The roof tiles should be placed starting from the bottom of the roof and working your way up. Let everything dry. I used watercolors and acrylic paint for painting because I like working in layers and be able to change if I don't like the way it looks. In the end you can seal the paint using some matte spray varnish. I placed some battery LED lights under the house. I recommend you use soft lights that will gently illuminate your windows so it looks like a real house. DON'T USE HOT LIGHTS!

Frequently Asked Questions: 1. What clay do you use? I use a paper clay. I either buy it or make my own depending on what I want to create 2. What's the difference between the bought paper clay ( amzn.to/2r5FEHY ) and the homemade paper clay (A) kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpy8eJl4r8SAirc (B) kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXbJXohslr94pas ? The homemade one is not that soft and is only good for textured surfaces like stones and tree bark. It is very cheap to make so it might worth to sand it and work it a little more than buying a paper clay. However, you can't keep it more than 5 to 7 days in the fridge. It has the best consistency when you just made it and it's fresh, so I would recommend you use it in the same day or the next and don't make more than you need 3. Can I use air dry clay? What's the difference between air dry clay and paper clay? Often times shops will sell both paper clay and ceramic clay with the same label "air dry clay". It's true, both are air hardening but there are quite a few differences: air dry clay(ceramic clay) is actually mud, natural clay, while paper clay is made with cellulose and other ingredients. Paper clay is stronger than air dry clay(ceramic clay). Air dry clay (ceramic clay) shrinks and the paper clay does not shrink. This is why paper clay is the better choice for my kind of projects. My projects usually require you to cover a jar or a plastic bottle. If the air dry clay shrinks and the bottle or jar remain the same size... you guessed it... your air dry clay will crack all around. It might be a lot cheaper but it's not what you need for these projects. 4. My clay cracks, how do you cover the cracks? You don't, you change your air dry clay to a paper clay! See why at the previous question 5. How to waterproof my paper clay creations? I recommend using a yacht varnish. Apply a few coats and make sure you cover it all around so no water touches your clay 6. What brand of paper clay do you use? I use "Das modelling material" - amzn.to/2r5FEHY 7. Where can I see the list of materials? As a general rule of my channel... READ MY VIDEO DESCRIPTIONS! I write it for you guys, is no secret what I use. For every video I write a description of what I do and what I use. 8. Do you sell your creations? No, not yet, my daughter loves them too much. 9. What colors do you use? I mostly use watercolors and acrylic paint.

I would make one roof detachable, and the building would be actually hidden self-watering reservoir for herbs I would connect to it, and which would stand beside it. It is a another option. What do you think about it?

[@kirubaachandramohan2360]

You are such a creative mom......😘

[@SwtGrnEyed86]

I have a hard time selling the things I make, also. You spend the time to make them exactly like you want and it's sometimes hard to part with them. You do beautiful work!

I love it, it looks amazing! My son (7yrs) and I are working on our own fairy lanterns together, it is really a lot harder then it looks. My son asked me to suggest/request a tutorial for a lantern that he would love to make, a castle with a dragon. I hope you can consider it. In the mean time, we will craft on. Thanks for sharing your talent, and inspiring the next generation.

[@2CraftySeniors]

Your work is so beautiful and fun. I will be having an operation soon and hope it allows me to get back to living a real life again. I so miss doing crafts and if I am healed I will be trying this craft as soon as I am able. I only recently discovered you and am so happy that I did. You are an inspiration! Just also wanted to say I really like this way of videos (not sped up but well edited) to the fast motion ones. I can see what you're doing better for one thing and also don't get that motion-sickness feeling. So thank you for doing most of your videos this way.
