Hemp crafts: stylish jewelry made from natural materials
First of all, by sawing tree branches, we get lots of golden "coins" that your little ones will certainly appreciate: they are perfect as a building material as an alternative to a regular cube.
And in order to combine business with pleasure, find an electric burner in the nearest children's or hardware store, and draw outlines of numbers on the cuts. Ready! Now you can unobtrusively teach children to count.
Another option is to burn letters on small cuts of wood, and then glue small magnets to them. As a result, you will get a great set for teaching kids the alphabet.
Crafts from a cut of wood can perfectly fit into the interior.
Homemade wood
If your saw cut has an oblong shape, we suggest using it as a watch face (you can look for a ready-made mechanism in handicraft or household goods stores). This country-style accessory can be made in two versions, using wood in its natural form or varnishing it.
Hemp crafts can also be used to decorate your site, for example, by making such an attractive path from tree cuts out of them, which can complement your summer cottage path. Be sure to make sure the wood components are firmly attached to the ground to avoid trouble, and then decorate them with pebbles and moss to give your gravel walkway a fresh look.
Decorate the trees on your property with hemp crafts, what could be more natural! You can easily and simply make a rustic decoration from a cut of a felled tree by wrapping it with coarse sisal thread and hanging it on a branch.
You can also connect individual parts into a garland, which can be used for the New Year's decoration of your site, while it is better to additionally fasten the ropes with wooden rounds with transparent glue. If you want to make such a garland brighter, you can always decorate crafts made from cut wood cuts with burnt patterns or paint bright patterns on them.
For a festive country-style interior design, you can also use such an elegant path made of wood cuts, painted with gold paint. Bottles, which will reflect the festive decor, will serve as a contrast to the shining wood. Such an unusual and attractive decoration can be used to decorate a patio or a veranda.
Hemp crafts can become the main detail of the interior in a rustic style. In this case, the rough wood cuts serve as candlestick holders, pairing well with a raw timber table and a fun tartan tablecloth. Please note: the composition uses pieces of wood of different sizes, which looks especially impressive.
The same candles on stumps will be an organic addition to the tree. They are especially recommended for high foundations under a tree, as in this case they connect the floor to the tree, filling the spaces and giving it weight.
An option for fans of hemp crafts: the visual center of this interior is a wall completely trimmed with tree cuts.
Another important detail of this room is the improvised individual coffee tables in a rustic style, made of hemp "pyramids".

Sometimes with the help of simple things you can transform a house beyond recognition. And if it is also DIY home crafts, then you will not only show your individuality, but also be able to save money. Moreover, for this you do not have to be an experienced designer or do handicrafts.
The main thing is to be careful, and then even with the help of objects that have not been used for their intended purpose for a long time, or improvised means, you will create beautiful and practical things.
Below we will tell you what you can do with your own hands for your home, and also give some examples of step-by-step work for creatively updating your home interior.

What to use for crafts
Any masterpiece starts with an idea, but you can get a charge of inspiration just by looking around: what can you use to create useful DIY crafts for your home?
The most common options are:
Advice: to create different crafts for the interior with your own hands, use old objects as well: suitcases, plastic and metal buckets, mirrors, pieces of furniture. Many decor elements that have an aged look only decorate home rooms.
Of course, we cannot tell you about all the new DIY home crafts. But it is not at all necessary to limit yourself only to these ideas: bring something of your own into the interior, involving the whole family in the process of creating crafts.
Practical crafts
One of the interesting DIY home ideas - shelf created from an old staircase as in the photo. To decorate it, we need boards, paint of any color (it is better to choose for the style of the interior), brushes, a saw, sandpaper and glue. First, start preparing the bases themselves for the shelves: count their sizes - and cut the boards to the desired parameters.
Advice: sometimes the levels of the stairs on each side do not match. Glue additional leveling blocks.
The boards, which will serve as shelves, are fixed in the stairs with glue. Further, the structure is sanded. When everything is ready, you can start painting and additional decor. On shelves of this type, you can store books, indoor plants, small accessories.

The next useful thing for your home with your own hands is desktop organizer... It can be crafted from wood, plastic, cardboard, glass, and other durable items. We will tell you how to quickly and easily make such crafts for your home with your own hands on the basis of wooden beams.
You will need several beams at least 2 cm thick: one of these components should be 1 cm longer. To decorate the organizer, it is better to choose several colors: you can paint each of the beams in your own color. You will also need a chisel, sandpaper, saw, hammer, drill, vise, glue, brushes, pencil, and ruler.
Start by planning your design and assigning an organizer. Depending on what will be stored here, we will have to do different work. For example, a smartphone will have a long cut that can be made with a saw. And for pens or pencils, you can make holes using a drill. Some holes are made with a chisel and hammer.
Advice: To keep the design of the organizer even, first make the markup with a pencil and a ruler.
After all the holes and slots are ready, sand the surface of the block with sandpaper. The finished top part of the organizer is glued to a solid bar. To prevent the structure from moving when drying, use a vise.
After about an hour, you can start further work. All slots and holes need to be lengthened, so do the same for the bottom glued block, taking into account the design of the top one.
homemade wood with your own hands at home
The longest block is glued to the bottom of this structure.
Advice: if you want to make an additional slot for paper, as in the photo, cut off the two upper bars, and glue the cut elements on the opposite side of the base.

After finishing the gluing, you can start decorating the organizer. You can use not only paints, but also, for example, glitter or decorative stickers. Beautiful DIY crafts made at home, like such an organizer, will become not only an assistant in work, but also a table decoration.
And below in the photo is an example of one of the interesting small-sized DIY crafts for the house: stand for glasses and cups... Collect a sufficient number of wine corks (about 20-30 pieces, depending on the desired size of the stand). Arrange these elements in the desired shape (circle, oval, square, or even a heart: they can look anything you like) - and wrap tightly with wire.
You can fill the empty space in the stand with scraps of the same plugs. If you are worried that the stand will disintegrate over time, fix the corks together with glue, wrap with electrical tape, or prepare a solid top of cardboard or wood for them.

With the help of improvised tools, you can do everything for the house with your own hands. Quite often they make their own from wood, plastic or glass coffee tables... In the photo you can see one example of such a craft: the table is made very quickly, since it only involves the connection of several wooden boxes.
Glue or nail the elements of the table, decorate it as you like, and also add some inserts to create internal shelves - and a comfortable coffee table is ready. By the way, wood is in harmony with any materials and colors, so it will not be difficult to fit a new table into the interior.

Your children can help you in creating unusual and beautiful things with your own hands. Entrust them with simple jobs: glue or paint a craft, choose materials and colors. These can be papier-mâché plates and saucers, practical needle pads, painted buckets as flower pots, notepads, and much more.
Do-it-yourself original children's crafts at home include comfortable hanger as in the photo below. In addition to the holders, it includes several pockets for storing toys, jewelry and other items.
Such a craft is made as easy as shelling pears: hand-sewn fabric elements are attached to a wooden base.

Nothing catches the eye like unusual wall decorations in large sizes. Therefore, if you have a large mirror, make for it spectacular frame from scrap materials.
You will find many photos of smart and cool DIY ideas for home with decorated mirrors: the framing can be made of glass mosaic, plastic, fabric, shells or pasta, all sorts of different buttons, clothespins, cutlery, decorative flowers and other items.
What about such an idea? The frame is made of a multitude of multi-colored newspaper tubes of the same thickness.
We continue to make crafts and decorate the house with our own hands: original ideas can also be realized using plastic dishes. For example, spoons that just need to be glued to a base that can withstand such decor.
The next photo shows another DIY home idea: lots of tops from disposable spoons were glued to a plastic bottle to create the shape of a lamp.
You can make several of these decorations and decorate the entire room with the updated handmade lamps, but remember that plastic is fire hazardous.

Another idea on how to make beautiful DIY crafts for home decor: this time it's about creating a spring atmosphere by artificial flowers from improvised means. Such ideas for an apartment with your own hands do not require special training.
The simplest flower arrangements are created using flat stencils used for starched fabric: the buds are strung on a wire - and fixed.
But some types of flowers, for example, roses, are more difficult to make. For such a handmade decor with your own hands, you need to cut out a paper or fabric circle with a diameter of about 15-20 cm. Next, the figure is cut in a spiral - and twisted from top to bottom. The petals of such a flower must be carefully straightened, and the flower itself must be glued so that it does not disintegrate.
Such original ideas for the home will allow you to decorate a vase, as well as frames, decorative panels and other surfaces.
Next hack: do-it-yourself beautiful and cute things for the home from large beads... For example, how about an idea for a DIY interior in the form of a candlestick? Take a regular disk - and with the help of glue, begin to fix each of the beads in a circle. After the first layer has dried, proceed to the next.
Advice. For a better effect, use transparent beads to allow light to pass through.
Beauty, isn't it? Such creative ideas for the home will come in handy during the holidays.

Such a design element as a cut of a tree is not currently available in every home, even with greater confidence we will say that it can be seen quite rarely. Because Russian designers are just beginning to use this practice. And decorations from tree cuts are mainly created by people of the hand-mate sphere. If you have a pre-estate plot at your disposal, then one way or another, you are cutting trees. And you can turn the resulting wood into a magnificent decor. And in this article, we will tell our readers how to use wood cuts for decoration.
We decorate the walls with tree cuts
Decorating your house with wooden saw cuts makes it, firstly, unique, and secondly, it brings a touch of naturalness into it, as if reuniting with nature. Basically, this decor element is used as wall decoration. This is done quite easily. You just need to take either a branch or a tree trunk and cut it into thin bars, which will subsequently be an element of decor. And any of the resulting cuts will be unlike the other, and make the bars of whatever size you want.
It is better to remove the bark from the tree if it is large, but if it is thin, then you can save it. It is recommended to grind the cuts a little so that you or guests do not accidentally bring a splinter. As you know, what is a raw material for decoration, how a tree attracts a variety of insects, and therefore, it is better to treat the bars with special solutions. You can decorate them with paint or varnish. But how to decorate the wall, you make the decision yourself. You can completely cover the wall with tree cuts, or you can only take a part. No matter how you decide to decorate the wall, it will look just great.
The cuts are fastened to the wall with special glue.
On a note! In order for the glue to securely fix the wood bars on the wall, it must first be cleaned and leveled.
Unusually panel made of wood cuts
Wood cuts in the interior look pretty nice. And to make sure of this will help a photo of modern interiors. In this part of the article, we will talk about how to create a panel using tree cuts?
So, the panel is a kind of composition, which just consists of wooden bars. And it looks just extraordinary and unique. That is, you will get a kind of picture that will make your interior unforgettable. Here, too, at your discretion, you can remove the bark from the tree, or you can not. The thickness of the cuts does not have to be the same, but the contour of the panel, to add beauty, is preferable to cut in the same size. Let's say right away that your picture will turn out to be a little abstract, since wood is not quite the material from which you can get a clear drawing. So there is room for your imagination. Basically, the cuts are sanded from the side that will be mounted on the wall, but the other is left untouched in order to give the composition a natural look. To make it unique and exclusive, you need to use such elements as branches, hemp and others in the production of panels.
How to make a floor using wood cuts
Nowadays, wooden floors are widely used. Therefore, you should not be surprised that the tree cuts will be useful for this part of the house as well. Well, of course, some small branches just won't fit here. Bars will have to be cut from trunks, well, or from large tree branches. The size of the blocks should not be small in thickness, because the floors are regularly loaded. And, naturally, a tree of softer varieties will not work. Otherwise, the service life of the floor will be greatly reduced. This type of decor is considered the most difficult. For several reasons.
- First, ordinary glue will definitely not work here, you will have to resort to using a special solution.
- The second is that after all the cuts are on the floor, you will have to grind very carefully and diligently until all the pieces reach the same level and become smooth. Then you can start the procedure for covering the floor with varnish, so that it starts to shine, and the varnish will also create a protective layer against moisture, dirt and wiping.
The varnish should be chosen one that is intended for wood, since in most cases they contain elements that repel various insects. And also the varnish will allow the floor to look like new for as long as possible.
We decorate the house with wood cuts
Wooden saw cuts can be used to decorate your home anywhere. The main thing is your imagination. These décor elements are not limited to floors and walls. Here is a basic checklist of what you can do or where to use wood blocks:
- Various vases and flowerpots. With a little time and effort, you get a wonderful flower pot that is both inexpensive and a great decoration for your room. Real plants and flowers combine beautifully with wood, and when a vase or pot is on a wooden floor, it is just an amazing combination. Cuts will help you not to lose the essence of the object that you are decorating, just use small diameter wooden circles.
- Shelves for anything, hot coasters. At the heart of such elements is a thick block from the trunk. As one of the ways, you simply sand it and apply varnish. But this method is the most practical for making shelves.
But hot coasters need a longer manufacturing process. To make such a thing, you will need the same cut of the trunk, and you will have to remove the middle from it. And cuts are placed in the recess, only smaller in diameter. This will make your product exclusive. If you have never done this, then practice on simple raw materials (take small cuts).
- Clock.
DIY wood crafts video
This element of your room will become not only a beautiful decoration, but also perform, say, everyday functions. Of course, to make a wooden clock, you need a real working clock. So, you take a wooden saw cut and make a hole in the middle and pass the arrow holder through it (the whole mechanism will be on the inside of the saw cut). After that, we fix the hour hands directly and that's it, the clock is ready! It's up to you to draw the dial or not.
- Decor elements such as picture frames or mirrors can be pasted over with small twigs. In this case, these decor items will become truly unique and very attractive.
- Stylized wreaths. You can also use artificial flowers in the decor, but putting them in a vase is boring and too easy. It is very easy to make such a wreath. A round metal hoop is needed as a base, it will do, and an ordinary wire of which needs to be given the required shape. Then you need to paste over the form with small cuts, and then add branches, cones, artificial flowers and more on top. You will end up with a unique wreath that you will proudly show to your friends and family. Such a wreath can be hung in the hallway.
- Hanger. A designer solution is a hanger made of cuts of medium thickness inserted into a rectangular frame. It is only necessary that the cuts have knots - they will serve as hooks for clothes. Such a hanger will look absolutely gorgeous in the hallway.
- Tables and chairs. Everything is clear here! The table top is a large saw cut of a tree and legs from small cuts in diameter are attached to it. Usually the made product is not painted, it fits perfectly into the interior of a summer cottage or a private house.
People with a highly developed imagination can bring to life even more ideas using wood cuts, both decorative elements and things that are useful in everyday life. So, for example, cups for pencils and pens will look very nice. There is plenty of room for the revelry of imagination and the embodiment of ideas. What would you do from the cuts? Now in this article we will show you how wood cuts look in the interior.
Old trees occupy an area that is just right for more useful and functional elements. Dry giants only litter with dead branches and remnants of greenery, practically do not give shade, but take up a lot of space.
After sawing and uprooting, most often the wood ends up in a fire.
No matter how many new synthetic materials for construction and decoration appear, wood remains indispensable and loved at all times. Carpentry craftsmen continue to create their masterpieces from plastic and malleable wood. Today we will tell you what unexpected things you can do out of wood with your own hands and give a link to the drawings.
Wooden curtains
The Venetian artist Livio De Marchi carves anything from ordinary woods - from a hat to a car.
He makes his masterpieces in full size. Sometimes it is very difficult to distinguish his works from real things. The master keeps his wooden collection in a special wooden house, inside of which everything is also made of wood, including dishes, tablecloths and curtains, made of wood with his own hands.
How to make garden furniture
Even if you don’t have the same artistic talent that you don’t have to spend money on garden furniture, try making it yourself. Sometimes it is really, easier than ever and does not require any drawings and diagrams. Ordinary boards and bent metal legs - here's a coffee table for you. For such projects, you can take small bars that are stacked in a checkerboard pattern.
Logs folded in a certain order - here's a chair with a table.
Dry wood will make an original hanger. As a last resort, a log with "hooks" from branches will do. Remove the bark, treat with antiseptics, paint in the color you want. At the end of the project, forget to "plant" the tree on a sturdy post with a heavy base.
DIY wooden interior
Here is a wallpaper made of logs cut across. Slice thick branches of dry trees. Attach them to the wall using liquid nails. Open with varnish. The original eco-decor is ready!
One craftsman decorated the chest of drawers with bark rings - it looks original and fabulous!

Two old chairs can give birth to a new bench. Place them in front of them and trim them with boards so that the beautiful backs of the chairs serve as bench arms.
Designer things made of wood

Not everyone will relax in the arms of a bony handsome guy, except for extreme lovers and fans of horror films.
If you want an original wall shelf that can go around any corners, make it yourself! The project price is six boards.
A wall mirror that turns into a folding table is a very handy thing in the house. And you can do it yourself with your own hands. You will need two sheets of plywood 2 cm in size 80 x 60, a mirror 60 x 40, metal hinges - 4 pcs., Two hooks, acrylic varnish. We measure 10 cm from the edge along the perimeter of the plywood sheet. Drill holes in the corners with a drill. Cut out the rectangle drawn on the plywood with a jigsaw. This is how we made the leg for the folding table, which will also serve as a frame for the mirror.
Now coat the table top and table leg with acrylic varnish. Use two metal hinges to attach the leg of the folding table to the table top. Attach two more hinges to the back of the other end of the tabletop so that the mirror can be hung on the wall. Place the mirror down with a mirror surface, exactly in the center of the tabletop. Stick double-sided construction tape around its perimeter. Turn the mirror over and place it on the countertop according to the scotch tape. Attach the hinges on the table top to the wall. The leg on the table top is fixed with two hooks.
Australian artist Cornish Adam designed a plywood hammock. The hanging structure consists of 15 layers of birch plywood, between which are rubber washers for shock absorption.
Unremarkable building pallets, as it turned out, inspire craftsmen to endlessly fantasize about garden furniture.
Wooden utensils
To make a knife holder in the shape of a medieval knight, expensive materials are not required, and professional skills in working with wood are also not needed. A standard kit, 15mm birch plywood and patience are all you need. The figure of the knight consists of two identical sides and one middle part, which are held together with glue and wooden spikes with a diameter of 6 mm. The holes for the spikes are blind, 8 mm deep. Use a 25x5mm neodymium magnet to hold the knife sharpener. Cut a hole in the knight's helmet, glue a magnet into it, and a plywood plug on top.
The knight's shield is assembled from two identical parts, the base of the stand is also. In the shield, you need to make through rectangular holes for the knight's hands, and at the base - for his legs. Then slots are cut in the shield for the specific knives available in your kitchen. The finished stand can be varnished or painted with acrylics.
A real working wooden excavator will surely delight your kids. The toy is 83 cm long and 68 cm wide and works on the principle of a lever pull. The product consists of two parts - support and a cabin with a bucket. The shovel bucket can be controlled by levers on a nylon rope. The base is a platform that rotates 360 ° around its axis.
