❣DIY Enchanted Fairy House Lamp Using Coke Plastic Bottles❣
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 чер 2017
- Hello, in this tutorial I show you how I made an enchanted fairy house lamp using nothing but coca cola plastic bottles, tin foil, paint, hot glue and paper clay. This is a great way to teach children about recycling and also stimulate their creativity and imagination.
I first glued the bottles together in the position I wanted. Then I cut the bottoms of the bottles. Next step is to build the shape of the house using tin foil and hot glue. This is a fast way to achieve a basic volume that will be the base for our paper clay. We are also marking with tin foil the places where the windows will be on the plastic bottles. Considering it will be a lamp you should draw as many windows as you can so the light will come out nicely. I made some mushrooms under some of my windows. I used some metal wire from a hanger for the curly roofs and for the leaf from above the door. You should now have the general shape of your fairy house. Cover everything with paper clay. You can work in one layer or, if you are a beginner you should work in two layers, one for covering the surface and the second one for the details like windows, door, wood texture, bark, mushrooms, door steps, curly roofs. After the paper clay is dry you can easily add more details using tin foil and hot glue, like I did for some of the windows. Let everything dry. I used watercolors and acrylic paint for painting because I like working in layers and be able to change if I don't like the way it looks. In the end you can seal the paint using some matte spray varnish. I placed some battery LED lights under the house. I recommend you use soft lights that will gently illuminate your windows so it looks like a real house. DON'T USE HOT LIGHTS!

Frequently Asked Questions:
1. What clay do you use?
I use a paper clay. I either buy it or make my own depending on what I want to create
2. What's the difference between the bought paper clay ( amzn.to/2r5FEHY )
and the homemade paper clay (A) ua-cam.com/video/LkYGfBz_MTU/v-deo.html
(B) ua-cam.com/video/_Ef-U6aZEoI/v-deo.html ?
The homemade one is not that soft and is only good for textured surfaces like stones and tree bark. It is very cheap to make so it might worth to sand it and work it a little more than buying a paper clay. However, you can't keep it more than 5 to 7 days in the fridge. It has the best consistency when you just made it and it's fresh, so I would recommend you use it in the same day or the next and don't make more than you need
3. Can I use air dry clay? What's the difference between air dry clay and paper clay?
Often times shops will sell both paper clay and ceramic clay with the same label "air dry clay". It's true, both are air hardening but there are quite a few differences: air dry clay(ceramic clay) is actually mud, natural clay, while paper clay is made with cellulose and other ingredients. Paper clay is stronger than air dry clay(ceramic clay). Air dry clay (ceramic clay) shrinks and the paper clay does not shrink. This is why paper clay is the better choice for my kind of projects. My projects usually require you to cover a jar or a plastic bottle. If the air dry clay shrinks and the bottle or jar remain the same size... you guessed it... your air dry clay will crack all around. It might be a lot cheaper but it's not what you need for these projects.
4. My clay cracks, how do you cover the cracks?
You don't, you change your air dry clay to a paper clay! See why at the previous question
5. How to waterproof my paper clay creations?
I recommend using a yacht varnish. Apply a few coats and make sure you cover it all around so no water touches your clay
6. What brand of paper clay do you use?
I use "Das modelling material" - amzn.to/2r5FEHY
7. Where can I see the list of materials?
As a general rule of my channel... READ MY VIDEO DESCRIPTIONS! I write it for you guys, is no secret what I use. For every video I write a description of what I do and what I use.
8. Do you sell your creations?
No, not yet, my daughter loves them too much.
9. What colors do you use?
I mostly use watercolors and acrylic paint.

How did you made the mushrooms?
Creative Mom 🙈😴😀😜😜🎶🎶👏🏿😃
you certainly do the best armatures! No idea Das was called "paper clay" (although I remember it feeling like paper glued) Thank you so much for your vids! (like you really go "out of the book" of *traditional* sculpting tecniques and do what works.. which is really cool!
how much clay did you use for this house?
Creative Mom is paper clay and modeling clay the same?
You are an artistic genius, there's no other way to describe your talent! Love it!
Красота неимоверная! Креатив зашкаливает! Спасибо!
how and 600 ppl disike this - are they empty inside - love it its amazing and upcyling plastic makes ut double awesome
Jodie Flo I thought the same!
Jodie, they're just jealous they don't have her talent. This lady makes it look so much easier than it is. She's a wonderful artist.
que belleza,tienes mucha creatividad,es un trabajo muy lindo,gracias por mostrar tu video
Hello,
I wrote about the PROCESS and the MATERIALS in the VIDEO DESCRIPTION. Check it out!
I might not be able to answer all your questions so before asking me something in the comments section make sure I didn't already answered that question.
Thank you!
that is fantastic, very well done and so creative, I love it and with the basic idea you had, I have thought of another idea for a fairy house, and once again, beautiful idea.
i can't find it.... :-(
Creative Mom amazing, so magical, 😊

Brilliant! Thank you for sharing this.
I have never seen anything like what you create! If there was a 'Most Creative Person' contest on UA-cam you would win hands down! Thanks for all the inspirations!
Suscritaaaaaa!! Ya no puedo más con esta señoraaa, que hermoso trabajo y claro, para que aprendas, muchas gracias, por enseñar y compartir tus geniales ideas.
Boy, do I feel stupid. I wrote, earlier, that my clay was cracking and falling apart and asking for reasons why. Well, I read through the thread and discovered that I am using the wrong clay. Wasted $10 on the wrong material but I will be purchasing the materials to make your recipe for making paper clay. Thank you for showing us your beautiful creations and sharing the process. You have helped to provide a source for entertainment for a 70-year-old great-grandmother with severe physical limitations. I have been so depressed and now I am so excited about making some lovely, inexpensive, gifts to give to family and friends for birthdays and Christmas. Thank you, you are an angel.
I cant stand how multi talented you are! Grrrrrr
*crawls back under rock*
Lol
Grrrr😬also. Throw your rock through one of the windows while I use my Envy Green & Jealousy Jade paint on it. Sheer genius wizardry, these houses!!
Wow Creative Mom! Your kids must love you when they have a school project! (and all the other times too) This is really beautiful work. Thanks for the post
I never would've thought that this beautiful lamp was created from 3 soda bottles, paper clay, wire and aluminum foil! Genius! I absolutely LOVE it!
Preciosa me fascinan todos sus trabajos felicitaciones Dios te bendiga 😘😘😘🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🙏
Это чудо! Вы просто обязаны делать подобные шедевры,чтобы всякой безвкусице не было места!
You are amazing!!!. Those who dislike your creation are ultimately empty headed!!
You are so frustratingly awesome that you need to be joining disney and make kids happy. God bless you.
I have been following your work for over a year. I tried making one house using the commercial paper clay. It look beautiful, but the next day , the clay was all cracked. I was so upset!
Yesterday I watched your video again, how to make the diy paper clay. Today I went shopping and got all supplies. Ready to give it a try. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise!
I will post on your Facebook, when finished.
How did it go after you made your own clay?
OMG, OMG....THIS IS JAW DROPPING. I AM GOING TO DO ONE OF THESE BUT TRANSFORM INTO AN UNDERWATER MERMAID SEA HOME WITH SHELL SHELVES INSTEAD OF MUSHROOMS...IM SO EXCITED. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TALENTS. I CANT WAIT TO SEE THE REST OF YOUR VIDEOS. I AM NOW A VERY HAPPY SUBSCRIBER!!! JUST AMAZING !!!!!!
I just had the very same thought lol.
If I could LOVE all your videos I would. Going to create a whole fairy and gnome garden with your videos ❤❤ enchant my kids. Thank you
Я в восторге!!! Это чудо!!! У вас золотые руки!!! Такой сказочный, теплый, уютный домик! Мне очень захотелось жить в нем! Творческих успехов и новых идей вам!!!
if my dream house would look the same i will never leave it.. i wish if they could build houses just like that 😍😍😍
:) I wish too!
You are in luck, they can and they do: Have the right land, the right architect and anything is possible. Most of all one needs to have the talent to think it, translate it into reality, find the right materials and have the self confidence to succeed. You know, the way Creative Mom has and does...
You could build her creation using cob. Her creation is indeed beautiful and is worthy of being built life size so some lucky people could enjoy living in a wonderful magical fairy tale house.
Carmel By The Sea in California; the entire town is full of houses similar to that! Google images of Carmel houses and hire a moving company ;o)
Hollywood execs built them in the early days to house investors. Look up "Fairy Tale houses Los Angeles." There are still some surviving. There is one called "The Witch's House" in Beverly Hills for starters .
you have JUST created a wonderful, whimsical and magical home!! I feel like words are not enough sooooo...I will let you know that I broke my jaw as it hit the floor while watching this vid!!! LOL!!! seriously this is creativity at its finest!! I'll say it again...COKE and Disney should sponsor you FOR REAL!!! xoxo stephie
Hi Steph, I thought of you and your fairy garden when I watched this. Such a talented lady, for sure.
:)) Thank you. I don't know about them. But Das should definitely sponsor me :))

Какая сказочная красота!!! Браво мастеру!!!!
Очень круто!!! Похоже на домики из PortAventura. Спасибо за видео!!!
What an awesome way to recycle ♻! I love this! Thank you for sharing! You did an amazing job!
I really Loved this one. It looks like a tiny hotel, very fun! Debi
Hi, I just wanted to say I tried to make this Fairy House just like yours. Well, I made one that looks like a child made it. I love it and took it too my classroom at an elementary school. The children loved it and put my miniature Minions all over it. Oh, my behalf I made it while recovering from carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel surgery. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.
Que belleza!!!.... Congratulations!!... You have a lot of great ideas.... Thank you for share!!!
I am so in love with this that I cannot stand it! This weekend I am totally hitting the art store and getting started on one of these babies! I've made jewelry since I was 12 (I'm 43) and worked my way up to creating with hot glass. But I love working with clay, using my hands, sculpting, etc. I've made some cool pendants out of clay. I like small intricate work, my fine motor skills are much better than my gross motor (you do NOT want to see me dance!) I can't wait!!
Show us your work too:)
Absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.
genial eres de las mías un mundo que recicla es un mundo mejor y limpio besosssss millones de ideas continua que Inspiras 💋 desde mi paraíso gran canaria

Wonderful use of materials that would otherwise end up in a landfill or in the water. I love repurposing and you have caused my craft addiction to grow!!
beautiful work :-)
Thank you!
I’m in love with your tutorials! Can these be used in outdoor settings? My grandma wants to make fairy and gnome gardens, and I’ve got plenty of stuff around to do it. But can these stand the test of time from weather and just being outside for long periods of time?
What a great idea you are so clever. I wish my granddaughter was here to watch, she made her own fairy house last week whilst she was on holidays with me.
Какая волшебная красота🖒🖒🖒
just wow
thank you
omg this is so beautiful. I wanna move in

Too late! But thanks all the same. 🙂
I love watching your videos! You're so talented!
Thank you!
Holy crap!!!! Are you kidding me??? This is the most amazing thing I've seen in a long time!!!! When you were gluing the bottles together and they weren't straight i was saying, wait it's crooked!!! Boy I'm glad you couldn't hear me, lol. I so didn't know what i was talking about. Very very creative!!! I love the whole recycle reuse and make it new!!! I'm so happy I came across you and look forward to seeing more.
Thanks Creative Mom!!!!!
Добрый день! Это... ОЧЕНЬ.ОЧЕНЬ ОЧЕНЬ КЛАССНО!!!!!Браво МАСТЕРУ!!!!))))
сверху фольги вы глиной лепите? и какая это глина поделитесь? глину сами изготавливали или покупали?
Это состав холодного фарфора ..основа бумажная жижа из туалетной бумаги ..клей пва немного муки и крахмала .можно добавить шпатлевку ....масса готова .Про это есть в инете кругом ..
I find your videos super relaxing to watch. I'm wondering how many hours this project took. Amazing talent!
Natasha Spurrier con que material rellena el ele mentó como se llaman
muy interesante tu obra
Maria Lourdes Rios Se llama DAS clay
So beautiful. Reminds me of Antoni Gaudi’s fabulous architecture.
hermosisimo! trabajo! felicidades!!
How much clay did you use
That is amazing!. You are a very talented Artist. I would love to attempt something similar but, I know it would not be as good as yours.
Thank you. I have some experience, but you can achieve that only if you start at some point ;)
Creative Mom do you sell these if sooo how much or can i get in touch with you to buy for my garden that already looks like a fairy home..but needs one of these.
Hermoso trabajo felicidades y saludos desde San Luis Potosi Mexico
Her glues sticks are long. Lol this is so awesome. Summer projects for all of us.

CREATIV BOY, she is from Romania!👍
Vielen Dank. Ich bin rumänisch, ja
I’m amazed how u can just cut and it fits where u want it to go
Это просто божественно!!!!!!
How long did it take you to make this magical fairy house?
probably some hours because you have to find a way how to apply the hot glue were it won't melt the bottle and for the clay thing to harden plus doing the designs and painting or if you're thinking of adding more to it
что за материал для лепки использовали?
Мне кажется это обычная замазка для рам
А мне кажеться, что это обычная белая глина. Замазка быстро сохнет, что может влиятельно повлиять на вырезку и растяжку там где нужно, а глина послушная в этих делах, ей легко управлять самим.
А может соленое тесто？
Мне тоже кажется что это тесто
hermosos sus proyectos gracias por compartir soy de peru
WOW, when I saw the bottles my immediate thought was no, no I'm not watching it. I am so glad I did though. It did me good to chew and eat humble pie and wash it down with a glass of humility. Thank you , you have taught me on more than one level..
