DIY bean panel on the wall. Paintings and panels made from coffee beans

In Ancient Egypt, in order to make a topiary, you had to find a plant with a lush crown and give it a bizarre shape. Nowadays, this process has become simpler, but no less interesting.

By giving space to your imagination, you can make an original product even from bean grains, the main thing is to show desire.

We suggest making bean topiary with your own hands from scrap materials, without using a ball-shaped blank and a flower pot. To do this, you will need old newspapers, threads, glue, a disposable cup, alabaster or plaster, a dry twig, white paint, burlap and various decorative elements.

First of all, you will need to crumple up the newspapers and give the lump as round and even a shape as possible.

Then we fix this shape with threads and coat the ball with glue.

We make a hole in the ball with threads.

Cover the branch with white paint.

And we put a paper and thread ball on it.

We dilute alabaster in a disposable cup.

And we immerse the topiary blank into it. We are waiting for the alabaster to harden. Cut off the excess part of the plastic cup.

And we cover it with green padding polyester, down or fluffy yarn - depending on what is available.

We arm ourselves with a glue gun and begin to paste the bean grains over the workpiece.

Well, the last grain is glued, the bean craft is almost done, the photo of which you can now see! All that remains is to give it the necessary gloss.

To do this, we take burlap, fold it in half and coat it with glue.

We wrap the cup with this burlap, placing the fold at the top.

We bend the bottom edge under the bottom of the cup.

Cut a round bottom from the remnants of burlap.

Glue the bottom onto the bottom of the cup.

And on top we decorate the glass with the remains of the green filler.

Take two wooden skewers for shish kebab. We break one in half, the second we break into small pieces.

We glue together a miniature ladder.

We cut out two wings of a butterfly from felt, and glue its body from beads.

We collect the butterfly and stick it on the ball.

We bring a couple of beans to life by drawing eyes on them. We place one bean on the ladder, the second in a pot.

Now the DIY bean craft is complete!

Of course, you can decorate it at your own discretion, taking into account the occasion for which the craft is being prepared, and this is the beauty of homemade topiaries: they can be given any look using the same materials as a basis.

Let's look at a master class on do-it-yourself bean panels

To make a panel like in the photo above, you will need:

• White and dark beans
• Photo frame
• Instant glue
• Gouache paints
• Simple pencil

Before you start working, you should first make a sketch of the future picture. To do this, use a simple pencil to create the desired design on the inside of the frame. To draw a perfectly round sun, you can take a plate and trace it. You can also take stencils of cat figures, having previously cut them out of paper. It is important to remember that the thinnest line should not be less than the width of one bean, otherwise there will be a discrepancy in size.

The resulting drawing must be painted over with black and white gouache paint so that the space between the beans is not colorless. At this stage the work looks like the photo below.

Now you can glue the beans. Since when drawing a contour it is impossible to take into account the size of the beans, it is acceptable that they extend slightly beyond it. To make the picture on the panel neat, you can sort out the beans, choosing fruits of the same size. As you can see in the first photo, the beans are glued first along the contour of all the shapes, and then in rows. To make the painting shiny and durable, it can be coated with clear varnish on top. The ideal option is to spray it from a spray bottle. All you have to do is put on the frame and the panel is ready!

Let's try to make a panel for the kitchen from coffee beans

Who didn’t want their usual kitchen to become like an original and cozy restaurant? You can add more charm to this room with the help of an unusual panel made of cinnamon and coffee beans, which have a rich aroma and deep color.

So, to make such a panel ourselves, we will need:

• 1 liter plastic bottle
• Ground and bean coffee
• Masking (white) tape
• Rough burlap
• PVA glue and instant glue
• Cinnamon
• Dried lemon slice
• Twine thread
• Brown gouache
• Scissors, ruler, brush

When everything you need for the panel is assembled, you can start working. It starts with cutting a plastic bottle in half. Next we need a half with a neck. It is also cut into two slightly different halves. One remains with a neck, and the other without.

Half without a neck is the future cup of coffee. From cardboard you need to cut out the back wall to the size of the cup, as well as the bottom for it. Don't forget about the saucer. The cut out parts of the mug need to be glued together as in the photo below.

The resulting blank should be covered with white masking tape. This is done so that the coffee beans stick better to the paper surface. Next, the workpiece is covered with brown gouache paint. Now the gap between the grains will not be noticeable.

When the paint has dried, you can start gluing the coffee beans. To do this, grains of approximately equal size are selected, and the edge of the mug is coated with glue. It is important to cover with glue only the area to which the grains will immediately attach, and not the entire area in advance. First, the grains are glued strictly along the contour, as in the photo. Be sure to glue them so that they do not protrude beyond the edge, otherwise the workpiece will not stick to the background.

When the grains are glued along the contour, you can fill the remaining area of ​​the mug. To your taste, you can glue the grains on one side or on different sides, but still the flat side, which has a dent, fits better on the surface.

The saucer is also covered with grains.

The main detail of the composition is a cup of coffee, ready. Now we need to take care of the background. To do this, place the base with burlap glued to it in the frame. To ensure that it sits evenly, the fabric can be pre-ironed. A mug and a handle made from grains are glued to the burlap.

All that remains is to decorate the panel. To do this, you need to tie cinnamon sticks onto a bow with twine and glue them to the saucer, and place a slice of lemon on the other side. The final touch is steam over the mug. To do this, draw waves of steam using a generous layer of PVA glue and sprinkle them with ground coffee. After this, the ground grains must be carefully shaken off, turning the panel upside down.

An alternative option for the frame is to cover the edges of the burlap with glue and sprinkle them with coffee according to the principle described above. If desired, the panel can be decorated with colorful artificial flowers. A bright and fragrant panel for the kitchen is ready! Such work will certainly pleasantly surprise your family and guests, because almost no one is indifferent to the invigorating drink.
