A self-made web of thread can be useful not only for Halloween. It can be used to decorate the room at themed children's events, design the scenery for a play, or when decorating a children's playground.
You can make a similar product from threads in several ways.
What is needed to make a web?
Depending on which manufacturing method is chosen, different tools and materials may be required.
- Yarn of the desired shade (in most cases, white or black threads are used) is a mandatory component.
- Scissors.
- PVA glue.
- Masking tape.
- Black paint.
- A piece of plywood.
Advice! Before starting work, you need to decide on the place where the web should be located. This will help you choose the appropriate method for its manufacture.
Three ways to make a web from threads
You can make such a decorative element in various ways. For example, you can use one of the options below.
Method number 1 - on the wall
For the first method you need to prepare:
- yarn of the selected color;
- sharp scissors;
- masking tape.
Execution technique
- It is necessary to cut 3-4 long threads (or more) and fix them on the wall using tape. They should be placed in such a way so that the threads intersect in the center.
- Fix all long pieces of thread in the middle, using a small piece of yarn, and knit them. It is recommended to trim off the excess.
- Then follows take a long piece of yarn and begin gradually forming a web. To do this, you need to tie one end of the yarn to one of the long pieces of thread attached to the wall. And repeat this action for each long segment.
- On each long strand, you need to tie a large piece of thread to the strand, forming a simple knot.
- Thus you should move from one thread to another, twisting and tying, until you approach the very first strand, with which the process began. Each knot must be made sliding so that it can be moved if necessary.
Advice! To form large rings on the web, you need to use the longest pieces of thread possible.
You can weave a multi-colored product in this way, using threads of different colors at the same time.
Method number 2 - using glue
For the second method, you need to prepare the following materials:
- white yarn for knitting;
- scissors;
- deep container;
- PVA glue;
- a piece of film or a plastic board.
Execution technique
- Yarn needed cut into pieces of desired length.
- Pour glue into the prepared container and dilute it a little with water. Pieces of yarn need to be dipped in glue and wait a little so that they can be fully saturated with it.
- Now we need to form a web.To do this, you need to lay out the threads in the shape of a snowflake on the film or on a board, and then lay out circles on top of it.
- Then you need to carefully form bends with your fingers and leave the product until completely dry.
- This The process can be speeded up a little by placing the web on the battery.
- When the product has dried, it must be carefully separated from the board or film.
The web is ready.
Method number 3 - on plywood
Required tools and materials:
- thin rope or black knitting yarn;
- a piece of plywood;
- hammer and nails with wide heads;
- black paint.
Execution technique
- Determine where the center of the web should be on a piece of plywood. Drive a nail into this place.
- Next, you need to drive the nails in a circle, almost along the very edge.
- Form the axes of the web by stretching double threads between the middle and the nails driven in along the edge.
- Having retreated 10 cm from the middle, drive a nail around the entire circumference near each resulting beam.
- You need to pull the thread around the nails driven in this way.
- Form 2 more such circles so that there are 3 of them in total. You can make more if the size of the plywood allows.
- Shiny nail heads should be painted over with black paint.
The web is ready.
To make the web more impressive, it is recommended to glue one or more decorative spiders to it. They can be purchased ready-made or made with your own hands from beads or paper.
