Fridge magnet “Dogs” made from salt dough using decoupage technique. Master class with photos for beginners

Master class. Souvenir - magnet from salt dough"Kitty".

Work progress:

This animal lives only at home.
We've all always known him.
He has a mustache like knitting needles.
The mouse is afraid of him.
He purrs and sings.
Well, of course, this is... (cat.)
For work I needed the following materials:
For the test: 1/4 cup flour, 1/2 cup salt, 100 ml water.
For coloring: gouache, Squirrel brushes No. 2 and No. 3, a glass of water, transparent varnish, magnets, super glue.

For our salt dough we need 2 tablespoons of flour and 1 tablespoon of salt, a little water and a little PVA glue. There is salt in the dough so that over time our product will not be eaten by rodents, and PVA glue gives strength.

First of all, you need to mix the dry ingredients, salt and flour, add a little water and PVA glue. Mix everything well and begin to knead with your hands. The dough needs to be kneaded so that it becomes homogeneous and plastic. The dough is ready when it does not stick to your hands. Now you can start sculpting.

Line a baking sheet with foil or baking paper. You need to sculpt immediately on a baking sheet. We roll the ball and use it into a flat cake, form ears, if necessary we help ourselves with a stack. We sculpt the eyes and nose so that the small parts adhere well to the base; they need to be moistened a little with water, and then glued. Using a stack or other stick with a sharp end, we press through the mouth, and in those places where we want to create a texture. We finish the arms, legs and sculpt a tail and sausages.

See if you need to add anything; if there are any unevenness, you can smooth them out with a damp brush. We send it to dry, put the baking sheet in a cold oven, and gradually raise the temperature to 130 degrees. Don't post it right away high temperature, the dough may swell. Our product should dry well, if it is a little damp inside, it’s okay, leave it at room temperature and everything will dry out, and the salt will not let it spoil.

Turn off the oven and let cool. If any edge is rough, you can sand it a little with sandpaper.

Everything is dry and we are ready to start painting the product. You can paint it with any colors. With watercolor you can achieve more transparent colors, gouache and acrylic give a dense coating. We will paint with gouache, cover the entire cat with black paint and immediately remove all excess with a damp cloth, leaving the paint in all the recesses. Don't wet it too much, let it dry. Now you can start working with color. We tint the eyes and nose, give a little color to the body, and paint the sausages. We work through everything carefully.

We paint the reverse side black and glue magnetic tape. To preserve salt dough for many years, you can coat it with varnish. That's it, our magnet is ready.

On the eve of the New Year, each of us begins to stock up on gifts for loved ones! And today I want to suggest making small gifts for the people you love with your own hands - these are New Year magnets " Winter hut" We will make them from salt dough (can be replaced with self-hardening clay). I chose salt dough because... the ingredients for it are available to everyone, and you can make such products with your children!

For work we will need:

- salted dough (the recipe I use will be below);

- stack, stationery knife;

- toothpicks, needles;

- a plasticine board or ceramic tile (where we will roll out the dough);

- acrylic paints (if there are metallic colors);

- gouache (black and ocher);

- brushes;

- felt;

- magnet;

- varnish (I used colorless Varnish XB-584);

- rhinestones (I have a diameter of 3 and 5 mm);

- glue (Moment, PVA);

- optional white glitter;

- sponge.

Salt dough recipe (I’ve made it many times already):

1) 150 g of water + 1 tbsp. l. Mix simple wallpaper glue and let the glue dissolve thoroughly;

2) 200 g flour + 200 g fine salt + 2 tbsp. l. (with top) potato starch mix separately;

3) combine everything + 2 tbsp. l. vegetable oil.

For several magnets, the amount of salty ingredients can be divided in half.

It’s better to prepare the dough in advance (I make it the night before and put it in the refrigerator overnight, wrapped in 2 bags).

Important! When working with salt dough, always keep the bag closed, the dough dries quickly!

We will have two versions of magnet huts!

Magnet “Winter Hut” with two Christmas trees

1. Roll out the dough, cut out the blank for the huts according to the template (the edges can be trimmed with a brush and water). Let's outline where the logs, roof, and snow will be. We make a sausage from 4 mm dough, cut it into approximately equal parts, lubricate the workpiece with some water and begin to place our logs, flattening them a little.

2. While our logs are not dry, we go over them with a needle, we get an imitation of wood. Make two more sausages, flattening them a little. Using a needle or toothpick, we make curves on one edge and transfer our blanks to the hut, having previously lubricated the places with water, then we make indentations on the rounded blanks (I did it with a dots, but you can also use a regular toothpick). We make a pipe over the roof, go through the dough with a needle, imitating bricks. Next, we roll the ball, flatten it, cut it in half, we only need one part (this will be the window above the roof), attach it to the hut, make indentations, and we get a window.
3. Make a thin sausage, smear water around the window, wrap it in the sausage - it turns out to be a window, flatten it a little.
4. In the middle of the hut there will be a main window made of a rectangular piece of dough; we make indentations in it. We roll the sausage, divide it into four parts according to the size of the window - these will be the platbands. We flatten the workpieces and transfer them to the hut, not forgetting to lubricate the gluing areas with water.
5. Now you can sculpt the Christmas tree. We cut out three trapezoidal blanks of different sizes, round each blank, cut the lower edge into three parts and round it with a toothpick (you get twigs). At the beginning we put down the most large workpiece and on the rise. We go along the edges of the branches with a needle.
6. We will get two Christmas trees, tall on one side and smaller on the other. We make indentations in the Christmas tree a little larger than the rhinestones themselves, because when the salt dough dries, it becomes smaller. We make snow on the roof, in front of the hut, on the windows.
Magnet “Winter hut” with snowman and Christmas tree

Let's move on to the next version of the magnet. The first stages of modeling are the same as for the first hut.

1. Let’s make the platbands at the roof a little differently, small curves at the edge and indentations in them using a toothpick. We roll the ball, make an oval, cut off a little at the bottom, we get a semicircular blank for the window. We attach in the middle of the hut and indentations

2. Take a strip of dough, place it above the window and flatten the edges a little with a knife or stack.
3. We do the same at the bottom of the window. Next we make shutters: cut out two rectangles, cut them at an angle and attach them to the hut.

4. Let's make a snowman. We roll three balls of different sizes, flatten each ball and start attaching it to the hut from the largest one, roll four balls, these will be the arms and legs of the snowman :) We make a hat from a triangle of dough, a scarf from two stripes. The nose is a triangle-shaped carrot made of dough. The Christmas tree is molded in the same way as on the first hut.

Our blanks for the magnets are ready, let them dry thoroughly (I leave them on the battery for 2 days). First, they are dried on foil, and when they are dry, I transfer them to cardboard, because... the foil does not allow air to pass through, and the workpiece does not dry out.

Our huts have already dried, now we cover them with black gouache (brown is also possible). When the gouache has dried, we begin to carefully wash it off, so the product turns out to be embossed. The blanks have dried out from the water. Let's start painting. We take brown acrylic paint and with a thin brush we go over the logs of the hut. Next we cover the platbands: for the first hut we cover the platbands with gouache (ochre), for the second - with acrylic blue, and the snowman’s outfit is also blue.

When the paint has dried, we paint the frames of the windows with white acrylic, and we tint the trim of one hut with white.

Then mix green and a little brown, cover the Christmas trees with it.

We need to make “frozen” windows. We drop blue and white paint directly into the window, quickly mix it with a needle, and add a little more white around the edges. We additionally cover the platbands painted with ocher with paint of a different color (I have acrylic metallic bronze, if this is not available, you can mix acrylic paint of brown and yellow flowers- you will get beige trims). Paint the snowman with white paint. Next, we take a sponge and begin to swab with white paint where we will have snow (I also went over the logs with a brush). We make the eyes and mouth of the snowman. We tint the snowman's hat and scarf with silver paint.

First we coat one side of the magnet with varnish, when it has dried, we coat the other side (the varnish that I use gives a little yellowness to the white color, after drying the varnish the snow was again covered with white paint). We take felt, trace it, cut it out, it will be reverse side huts.

Where there is snow on the huts, cover them with a thin layer of PVA glue and sprinkle with glitter (you don’t have to cover them with glitter). After the “snow” has dried, glue the rhinestones onto the Christmas trees (they can be glued with Moment or superglue).


Glue the felt blank and magnet.

That's all, our two huts are ready! :)

I used the same method to make Babok Yozhek’s magnetic huts :)




I will be glad if you liked my master class and you make your own little huts based on it!

I wish you creative inspiration, comfort and warmth in your home! May all your dreams be in New Year will definitely come true!

Many kids love cartoons. Almost all children want to get toys in the form of cartoon characters. But what to do if you can’t buy a toy in a store? Then you need to make it yourself! An original magnet in the shape of a character from the cartoon “Smesharikov” will delight not only a child, but also an adult! To make it you will need:
Salt dough
Acrylic paints
2 brushes (fine and medium size)
Acrylic gloss varnish
Magnet
Jar of water
Baking paper
Glue moment
1.Make a circle from the salt dough (it’s best to start right away on baking paper) and flatten it a little.

2. Roll two pieces of dough into “sausages” and make ears out of them. We bend one ear slightly. Glue the ears to the body.

When you are preparing for Valentine's Day, remember that you can make a gift with your own hands, putting all your soul and skill into it. There is nothing better and more pleasant than making a gift for your soulmate with your own hands. In this master class with step by step photos, you will learn how to make your own salt dough magnets for the refrigerator for Valentine's Day.

To make magnets you will need:

- One glass of flour;
- Frying pan;
- One glass of salt;
- Half a glass of water;
- A tablespoon of salt;
— Gouache;
— Glue gun;
— PVA glue;
— Rolling pin;
— Magnets;
— Brush;
— PVA glue;
— Knife;
- A toothpick.

Let's get started:

1) Knead the dough. Place the frying pan on the fire. Mix salt and flour and pour onto warm frying pan. Then, stirring constantly, pour in the water and oil. Gradually the dough will curl and take the shape of a ball. Turn off the heat and leave the dough to cool.

2) Cut it off small piece test. Roll it out with a rolling pin. Cut out a heart from cardboard or take a regular one, place it on the dough and cut it out. We smooth out the unevenness.

In this MK you will learn how to make several types.

First option. We make leaves from small pieces, using a toothpick we draw lines on the leaves.

Roll it up and give it the shape of a rose. and glue the leaves to the heart with PVA glue.

Second option. We make letters from the dough, in our case we make the phrase LOVE IS... (as on the well-known chewing gum) and glue it to the heart.

The third option contains the first two. We make roses and letters and glue it all to the heart.

3) Leave the magnets on the battery to dry winter season or put it in the oven for two to three hours on the lowest heat.

4) Coloring. We paint with gouache or regular paints. First we paint the large parts, and then the small ones. If desired, the top can be coated with varnish for shine.

In this master class you learned how to make magnets from salt dough. You can give them to someone close to you. Although this gift is small, it is made with your own hands from the bottom of your heart.
