❣DIY Fantasy Floating Castle Lamp Recycling TRASH❣

Описание: DIY Fantasy Floating Castle Lamp Recycling TRASH
Hi, this is a "best out of waste" video where I show you how I made a fantasy floating castle lamp recycling some cardboard from an old box, egg cartons, pizza boxes, toilet paper tubes and three plastic bottles. The only bought materials I used are the colors, the hot glue and the P.V.A. glue. It took me about seven days to finish, including the drying time. This is a creative way to teach children about recycling and also stimulate their imagination.
I started by tearing some egg boxes in smaller irregular pieces that would help me build the stones under my floating castle. I glue them together in a triangular shape.
Then I make some paper clay from a few pieces of cardboard. It is really easy and cheap to make because we only use two ingredients: cardboard and P.V.A. glue (polyvinyl acetate glue, commonly referred to as wood glue, white glue, carpenter's glue, school glue, Elmer's glue in the US). I used an old blender to make it really smooth. I tear the cardboard to pieces and place them in the blender. I add hot water over the cardboard pieces and start the blender. When it looks like a homogeneous mix I squeeze the water out trough a sieve. You should squeeze as much water as you can. I then add the glue. I used about three tablespoons of P.V.A. glue in the mix you saw, but you should add one spoon at a time and mix it to see if it has the consistency you want, and keep adding glue until the paste is the way you want it to be.
I cover the egg cartons with the paper clay and let it dry. I now have the base for my castle. I cut three plastic bottles of different sizes and heights to make the towers. I also used some paper towels cardboard tube and toilet paper cardboard tube for extra towers. You can use all kinds of cardboard tubes thinner or larger to get a cool effect. I made the cone roofs using some thicker paper. I drew some circles and cut them in half. This is the easiest way I know to make cones. I also drew the door and windows for the castle. Considering it will be a lamp you may want to draw a lot of windows bigger and smaller, don't be afraid to play with the sizes and shapes. I covered the castle walls with paper clay. For the roof tiles I used pizza boxes. I cut small pieces and glued them from the bottom of the roof working my way up.
I painted the whole thing in acrylics. It really is up to you how you paint your piece. After it was dry I made some holes to insert the LED string lights in the towers. I also made two little blocks of cardboard on the back so the castle will appear to be floating without touching the wall. It is a really cool effect.
I hope you enjoyed my tutorial
