Miracles in laces
Декупаж, скрапбукинг, кардмейкинг and other entertaining words – actually rather fashionable hobbies of modern needlewomen.
Try to say correctly word СКРАПБУКИНГ. It has turned out? At me here from the first did not leave, as this recognition not ridiculously sounds. It is quite possible to explain an intricate word very simply: picture album creation by the hands. To make it it is possible absolutely differently that it was more interesting. How? Read further. It is a lot of styles of creation of the album. All will depend only on your preferences and imagination. You in the childhood have become engrossed in reading of historical novels and till now rave the Middle Ages? You will be not not left indifferent by the first related style скрапбукинга: Shabby chic: this style has come in скрапбукинг from the decor world. Shabby means «old, поюзанный», chic has the same value, as in Russian a word a glamour. Together these two words opposite on sense give an interesting combination and especial style: "is false old", with glamour elements. For this style the technics состаривания is used: toning and комканье papers, stamps.
Second-hand editions and ancient paper grasp? Then you precisely fan of style Vintage: in the world of a decor and needlework the term «винтаж» means «under olden time». Thus, it is is false ancient style for which use of ancient photos or pictures and the made old elements is characteristic. The core in this style is to make impression, that the page belongs to other epoch.
Heritage: this style is used for registration of ancient photos. Pages in style Heritage (heritage - in transfer with франц. "Heritage") "tell" to us about history of our family and about our ancestors. The used colour scale should be typical for last centuries. In quality эмбелишмента laces, buttons, small ancient (or under olden time) metal subjects (keys, замочки etc.) are used. As at an ornament there are ancient cards, tickets, letters, envelopes, marks etc. Elements of two previous styles are actively used in style Heritage.
The European style. It is style which has started to develop with occurrence скрапа in Europe, strict enough and constrained. Its basic technics - cutting of photos by means of the special adaptation. For pages in the European style important considerable quantity of photos. American style opposite to it, differs from European active use эмбелишмента (tags, tapes, buttons, flowers). Pages in this style are often overloaded (but not in bad sense of this word), and not for the account of photos. And, at last, three styles which have appeared more recently: Clean and Simple - style "pure" and very "square". One photo is usually used, and a lot of place is taken away журналингу. A lot of empty space, a minimum of simple ornaments – here lines characteristic to this style. Exclusive it is considered white colour, with modest stains of other colours.
Free style: if it is fair, the full characteristic to this style to give difficult enough, but there are some moments which considerably allocate it among other styles: - courageous colour combinations; - an abundance doodling (flourishes and a scribble), drawn by pencils or felt-tip pens; - title letters made manually; - a white background.
Mixed media is already aerobatics! This already whole art, mixture of styles and materials.
Well, that. About скрапбукинг we have talked, and this word any more not seems said on the Chinese language without the translator. But after all on it hobbies of modern needlewomen do not come to an end!
And following in our list of research of modern hobbies - витражная a list. Or, if to be expressed easier - a list on glass. Looks extraordinary beautifully, by the way. Certainly, if all is made technically truly. In general, "Stained-glass window" (an armour. «Vitrum» – "glass") – a version of the decorative art which basic material is glass or other transparent material. Stained-glass window art exists as in itself is a panel, and in the union with architectural ensembles. Ornaments of apertures, windows, the walls, the separate products presently can be carried to a stained-glass window, created of glass or from glasses plafonds, independent pictures etc. The product is made of colourless glasses, colour, or with a list on glass special paints, or without them. It is a lot of variants, as well as the technician of works on creation of stained-glass windows. What for it is necessary витражная a list? Well, first, this charming ornament and the art bright decision for any interior, secondly, is an original substitute of glass and simultaneously possibility, not to miss a sunlight, remaining hidden from another's attention. And if there is a necessity to recover an interior, to create something remembered, original and, nevertheless, not shouting or to hide any defect – the stained-glass window will be the most optimum decision.
For acquisition of initial skills and skill secrets, it is necessary to take some lessons of a list on glass. On employment you will learn to use "аутлайнерами" (contours), to put витражную a paint, and at the same time you can test in classical витражной to the technician! In a word, it is a lot of that interesting to you it is necessary, while you will learn is masterful to paint stained-glass windows.
One more curious employment to which, undoubtedly, it is necessary to find time, this dressing in the technician декупаж. It is a little history: the word "decoupage" occurs from French to "cut out". And «the technics декупажа» is technics of an ornament, dressing by means of the cut out paper motives. Registration of elements of an interior in the technician «декупаж» is familiar to XVII century. Then gluing of paper applications on furniture, floors, walls so, that the applications covered with a varnish looked as drawings was widely applied. The technics has gained the further distribution to England in XIX century. Technics декупажа used in the works and some artists, for example, Matisse. Now motives are more often cut out from three-layer napkins therefore декупаж in some languages has received other name – салфеточная the technician. But pasted motives are not limited only to napkins. It can be illustrations from magazines, the brown paper, labels, декупажные cards, recently widely extends application of printer listings. And actually unique uniting base in this technics: a cutting of motives. Decorated surfaces can be from the most various materials – a tree, metal, ceramics, glass, a fabric, a skin, plastic. To be engaged декупажем, it is necessary to use in addition such materials, as акриловые paints and a varnish, for surface protection. Subjects should be decorated so that the pasted motive as though merged with a background and did not look pasted.
And the last, that is in the list of my researches of modern needlework, it кардмейкинг. Employment for the present inventors and фантазерок which simply adore to make all the hands and to give lovely открыточки and own portrait photos favourite and to relatives. Why cards and frameworks, instead of sewing of teddy bears?
Yes because кардмейкинг is an art of manufacturing of cards and frames for photos the hands from all improvised materials (it is improbable, but to a course there is even a baked dough!) with use of application and other «украшательств». If you very much would not like to please relatives, and time for studying, for example, витражной lists are not present, кардмейкинг where the flight of fancy - is not limited, and technics of manufacturing - simple enough (the main principle-accuracy plus an ingenuity) and so, кардмейкинг is that will gain and, undoubtedly, the pleasure will give.
