How and with what to glue dry plants on a postcard, you can read below (click on "Hidden area" to expand / collapse the text).

Knowing properties various types glue, it is easy to choose the most suitable glue. However, there are no strict rules in this regard, you can use what seems more convenient or at hand in this moment. The main thing is that the plants are firmly fixed, and there are no traces of glue left on them. When working with dry plant material, several types of glue are used - depending on the situation and the quality of the glued material.

Wallpaper glue suitable for gluing flat surfaces that are completely in contact with each other. It is ideal for securely fixing paper, dried leaves.

Special floral glue "Oasis" used for fast bonding of small transparent elements. It can be applied pointwise. But it should be borne in mind that in some cases this adhesive provides the material.

PVA glue very popular when working with dry plants, as it securely fixes the material, but requires a sufficiently long exposure to dry completely. It is better to apply glue with a thin brush on the thickest parts of the plant (veins, flower core), without smearing the entire surface of the plant with glue.

For gluing coarser parts (twigs, buds) is used hot glue gun. With small drops of hot glue, you can quickly, accurately and firmly glue even the most inconvenient element for gluing. Be aware that hot glue can ruin appearance material, leaving light spots on its outer surface, so it is not used to fix very thin or porous materials.

To fix small and relatively light elements, it is also used double sided tape. It is suitable for gluing a wide variety of materials: natural fibers, petals, leaves and other parts of dried plants.

Written based on the materials of the book "Collages and Panels" by Yulia Maryina.

Dry leaves are very fragile and you need to think in advance how to keep the plants for a long time. The easiest way is lamination. I immediately laid out the leaves, grass and flowers in small groups (compositions) between the film, so that later I could easily cut out the desired composition or a single flower. On the first postcards, I glued the laminated leaves with Glossy accents and fixed them with a stapler for reliability. But then I made sure that Glossy accents were holding securely and did not use the stapler anymore.

A few years ago, I simply covered the composition with a piece of transparent film using double-sided tape. Or covered the composition with a transparent self-adhesive film - also a fast and reliable way. Then I glued it under the cut out window in the postcard.

On the Internet I found a very similar way to protect plants called hand laminate.
Can transparent film be stitched onto sewing machine and stick it on a postcard. Or take advantage of the master class, where the photo is inserted into a frame with a plastic window. Thus, you can insert a cardboard box with dried flowers under the plastic.
Perhaps you yourself will come up with a simple and original way plant protection.

Happy creativity!

P.S. You can use purchased dry plants!

From autumn leaves, you can create all kinds of crafts, applications, and even work in combined techniques. Children are interested in independently collecting leaves on a walk, so that later they can be used for creativity. To make the application interesting, collect the leaves different size and forms.

Leaves must be dried first. It can be done different ways, but the most optimal is to put the leaves for a few days between the sheets of books. If you need a quick way to dry, then the option with an iron will suit you. But be sure to lay a sheet of paper between the sheet and the bottom of the iron.

Creating animals from leaves is the most favorite pastime of children. They are usually made on a light sheet of paper or cardboard. But you can pre-color to draw a forest, field, sea - for each animal its own world.

For the tail, we need to take two large leaves and glue them so that one leaf slightly overlaps the bottom one.

We glue two fins - above and below.

Now we make scales. For them, small leaves of approximately the same size are suitable. We glue the first row of leaves, stepping back a little from the eye. Each next row of scales should overlap the previous one a little.

Leaf Applications: Senior Kindergarten Group

What else to do with children when rainy weather is at stake. In this case, the herbarium prepared in advance saves. In addition, leaves are an ideal material for creative development child and also the most affordable, as the leaves themselves fall under their feet in the fall. But if your herbarium has crumbled, then do not rush to throw away the torn leaves.

They can be used for a certain type of application.

Breakaway application

Leaves for such crafts can be different in color and size. On the contrary, it is much more interesting to work with a variety of material. Then the applications are bright and unusual.

6.1. DIRECT WAY

6.2. THE REVERSE WAY

1. "Glue"

Dry leaves- very brittle material, and work with him, and it must be glued very carefully and carefully.

variability reception:

1.1. Gluing whole leaves

1. Let's select leaves big and small size.

2. Flip sheet convex side with veins down.

3. For a smoother surface sheet apply PVA glue with a brush. If a leaves small glue is applied by drop method.

4. In a certain rhythmic sequence (large, small, etc.) glue leaves on the surface in accordance with the markings or without it.

5. Wet the excess glue with a napkin and press it sheet to the surface with the palm of your hand.

good to use leaves with color transitions. The picture is lively and more natural. Usually, plants such as poplar or viburnum have a very rich palette of colors and leaves You can show light and shadow.

Result: Dried a leaf of wood is glued to the base of the work.

1.2. Part gluing (pieces) leaves

It happens that in the process work or storage dry leaves break. Broken parts can be used for decoration works: stars, raindrops, path, etc. You can make a mosaic of pieces leaves. And if you cook a multi-colored crumb, it will help to revive the background.

1. We spread glue on foundation by design, markup.

2. Sprinkle this surface with multi-colored crumbs from pieces leaves.

3. Press lightly with the palm of your hand through a napkin.

Result: The outlined pattern is filled with crumbs from leaves looks like a mosaic.

2."Deformation"

Deformation is a change in the shape of something under the influence of force. To change shape tree leaves use techniques folding and twisting.

variability reception:

2.1. folding leaves

1. Fold the sheet and, making sure that the fold line has been outlined correctly, with the help of fingers, moving away from you or from left to right, we smooth the fold line. At the same time, hold both parts with the fingers of the left hand. sheet so that they don't move.

2. Then we fold the intended fold in the given direction in accordance with the idea.

3. Fix the result with threads, blades of grass or wire.

Result: modified form leaves in accordance with the idea.

2.2. Twisting leaves

1. Sheet roll around the finger of the left hand or on basis table with the fingers of both hands.

2. Then lightly holding both parts sheet and without pressing on the resulting tube, we fix it on glue or a paper clip, accurately determining the desired diameter of the twist.

Result: modified rounded volumetric shape sheet in accordance with the idea.

3. "Imprint"

In this case tree leaf It is used both as a tool - a means of creating an image and as an expressive artistic means.

Acceptance variability:

3.1. Imprinting leaf paints

1. We cover tree leaf with paints of the same color or different colors from the side of the convex veins, leaving no empty spaces and not forgetting to paint the edges.

2. Then tree leaf apply the painted side to the paper, trying not to move it from its place, otherwise the print will be fuzzy, smeared.

3. To obtain a print, press firmly sheet to paper.

4. Then we take leaflet by the handle and carefully remove it from the surface of the paper sheet.

5. Take the next leaflet, paint it in a different color and print it elsewhere in the composition. leaf you can cover not with one color, but with different ones, then the print will turn out to be two-color.

6. Can be reused already painted leaf by applying a different color to it, then when mixing different colors, an unusual shade can be obtained.

7. When the drawing is filled with prints leaves, paint the trunks with a brush trees, where the imprinted veins leaf will resemble twigs in a colored crown. Result: picture leaves with indistinct outline, but with a well-drawn texture sheet.

3.2. Imprinting leaves with wax crayons

1. Spread tree leaf, protruding veins upward.

2. Cover it from above xerox sheet(color) paper.

3. Shade the surface of the paper with a wax pencil.

4. To enhance the color saturation of the print, the resulting tree leaf shade again, pressing harder with a pencil.

5. For picturesque drawing, you can use different colors wax pencils.

In addition to wax pencils in this reception you can use art crayons, pastels, charcoal and colored pencils.

Result: clearly visible texture and contour tree leaves.

3.3. Imprinting leaves on plasticine

Like reception can be used in work with mastic and plaster, but for work with children it is better to take plasticine.

1. Knead and spread the plasticine on a smooth surface.

2. Then we roll out the plasticine with a rolling pin into a layer about 2 cm thick, and cut off the uneven edges.

3. Lay out on plasticine sheet, protruding veins down.

4. We roll over the formation with a rolling pin with some pressure.

5. Carefully remove sheet and cut off uneven edges.

Result: relief image tree leaf.

4. "Copy"

In order to learn how to copy, you need to take an even, flawless tree leaf and get started.

Acceptance variability:

4.1. Stroke leaves along the contour

1. Take a simple tree leaf.

2. Put it on paper.

3. Take a pencil and trace leaf along the contour holding it with your hand.

Result: silhouette image tree leaf.

4.2. sketching leaves from nature

1. Place a leaf of a tree in front of you.

2. Start sketching sheet, visually comparing its shape, size, contour outlines.

3. Coloring sheet and draw the veins with pencils or paints.

Can be put leaves at different distances from you and draw them at this distance. Accordingly, on paper leaves should be the same size as you see them, and not in life size. This has to do with perspective - things appear smaller the farther they are from you.

Result: realistic image of tree leaves.

5. "Cutting out"

Cutting scissors should be well sharpened, close and open well. To cut straight, it is necessary, cutting right hand(for right-handers, do not close the scissors to the end, but move forward in small steps. All paper manipulations are performed by the auxiliary hand.

variability reception:

5.1. Stencil cutting leaves

1. Sketch the original image of the silhouette by hand "approximately" or circle around leaves on paper(future stencil).

2. Carefully cut out the outline of the pattern with scissors. Stick the end of the scissors into the part of the surface that you are cutting, bring the cut to the line.

3. We cut the paper smoothly, without interruption, strictly along the contour of the picture. Unless absolutely necessary, do not tear the knife from the paper.

4. You can cut several silhouettes on one stencil leaves in a certain order so that the frieze can be sealed in the future.

For further creativity, you can use the inside of the stencil (reverse stencil) and external (straight stencil)(see below reception"Stuff"). The stencil can be used multiple times.

Result: inside of the stencil - silhouette sheet of paper, the outer part is a paper background.

5.2. Cutting out a shape from leaves

1. Cut a straight line - the auxiliary hand just moves along leaf forward, as if trying to "catch up" with the cutting hand.

2. Cut out the square - we reach the corner of the image by turning sheet; without taking out the scissors, we continue to cut out the figure.

3. Cut out a circle - after every three cuts, move the hand holding sheet, closer to the scissors; wherein left hand trying to catch up with the right.

4. Cut out complex contours - combine hand movements from the above actions.

Result: the figure of any image obtained from tree leaf(letter, Christmas tree, circle, etc.).

6."Stuffing"

If you want to get a bitmap on the surface, the easiest way to do this is by spraying with a hard brush, brush, spray gun or paint sprayer. For denser stuffing of the image, a foam rubber swab and thick paint are used. (gouache paints).

variability reception:

6.1. Stuffing in a direct way

1. For stuffing simple drawings in one color we take a direct stencil.

2. Using a round brush (tampon) and the selected paint on the stencil we beat off an exact copy of the intended pattern.

3. In this case, the background color is the color of the surface.

Result: Clear shaded silhouette tree leaves, the background around the silhouette drawing is the color of the paper.

6.2. Stuffing in reverse

1. With this method, we use a reverse stencil, where only the background is filled with paint.

2. After stuffing the background, the pattern appears due to the color of the surface itself (paper), and the space surrounding the pattern is darkened or brightened.

The reverse stencil is also used for stuffing borders and friezes.

Result: Silhouette tree leaves are not painted over, has a surface color (sheet of paper) . The background is painted over.

1. For crafts, small or medium-sized leaves are more suitable. As well as all kinds of berries (for example, mountain ash), dried flowers, seeds and herbs, spices that any housewife has in the kitchen (peppercorns, allspice and cloves). To highlight the details of the application and its background, you can use pencils, felt-tip pens and paints.

2. Before doing leaf applique, prepare materials for crafts. The leaves collected in the forest or park must be thoroughly dried. To do this, simply iron them with a warm iron, having previously laid paper on both sides. After that, remove the top layer of paper and let the leaves dry completely.

True, this method of preparing the leaves is not suitable if you are making an application with a small child. Yet such a fragile material as dry leaves is more suitable for older children. In babies, the leaves will literally crumble in their hands. In this case, it is better to make an application from undried leaves, and then dry the finished composition.

3. Before gluing the leaves onto cardboard or a sheet of paper, make a barely noticeable pencil sketch of the future application on it. So the child will better imagine the future composition and more accurately glue the details of the application to the paper.

4. As for the glue, the usual stationery is suitable, which must be applied to the sheet with a very thin layer or dripped with liquid glue in several places on the sheet.

5. You can start making the simplest applications already with a one and a half year old baby, gradually complicating the plot.

How to make a leaf applique

1. Map out with a simple pencil location of the future application.

2. Take prepared leaves. They must be taken with caution. Teach your baby to do this with tweezers or one finger dipped in water.

3. Now you need to glue the leaves to the cardboard. If the leaves are not too dry, then apply the glue directly to them, and if they are dried, then the surface of the cardboard should be covered with glue.

4. After the application is completely ready, cover it with a napkin and put it under the load for a day (for example, under a stack of books).

Leaf applications: ideas

To kids

Suitable for the little ones simple plots. Ask your child to build from leaves everything that he saw during a walk, for example, trees. Help him stick to landscape sheet or cardboard with small leaves (birch or aspen), and draw twigs and a trunk with paints or felt-tip pens.

Children 3-4 years old

Older children can complicate the task - to think about what or who this or that leaflet looks like. You can not only make some kind of animal or bird, but also create a whole plot, for example, a bird sitting on a branch or a cute hedgehog with mushrooms on its back.

Preschoolers

With preschoolers you can make leaf applications several trees at once (aspen, birch, maple, mountain ash). These can be simple compositions of one figure, and more complex ones, consisting of several figures. From colorful leaves you can make and beautiful postcard, and a bookmark or something else useful.

Create with your child beautiful applications- then you can make a whole art gallery out of them.
