One of the irreplaceable materials for creating an interior is clay.

Since time immemorial, man has learned to create objects from clay, the art of masters has been perfected over time, and beautiful vases , figurines, bowls, decanters, plates and a lot of other various items of everyday life appeared. Modern designers use clay to create shelves and shelving, an author's tile made of clay is an extraordinary one. At home, tiles and clay racks make it difficult to do this, for this we need special equipment, but there are such clay crafts for the interior that we can make with our handles.

- plate;
- rolling pin;
- knife;
- capacity with water;
- board for material preparation;
- textile backing.
Make a plate of clay
- To begin with, we need to roll out a piece of clay about, so that by the size it could cover your plate, and the thickness was about 4 mm.
- The next step is to shift the clay layer to a plate covered with a textile backing.
- Then you need to make sure that the clay leaf takes the shape of your plate.
- Carefully cut and level the edges with a knife.
- After that, moisten your fingers with water and walk along the edge of the plate with your fingers, leveling it.
- Cut out a coffee cup and a saucer on the contour of the prepared stencil.
- Gently transfer this element to the pre-wetted surface of the saucer and press it.

Next, you need to decorate the plate, everyone can do it at will, we'll do it this way:
After all done, the plate can simply be left to dry, if possible, of course, better bake.
Continuing the theme of decorating the living space, I would like to remind everyone who reads this that crafts for decorating the interior can be made from everything that we see, from the most ordinary and unusual things, from what we often throw out and what we do not pay attention. The main thing in this business is inspiration, and their hands will follow the fantasy themselves.
Tricks for interior decoration can be cans that can turn into charming candlesticks. From the cloth shreds, you can create an unusual plaid beauty that will warm you and your loved ones on winter cold evenings. Do not forget about natural materials, such as wood, a sweet stump can serve you as a stable and sturdy stool that will fill the space of the house with the natural beauty of a mysterious forest. Shells from the sea coast will give the photo frame a romantic and easy look, which will always be pleasant to admire, and remember the summer vacation.
Crafts from paper for interior
Along with strong materials in the interior is actively used and such material as paper. Of paper make pictures, for example in the technique of quilling . Modern craftsmen create a lot of crafts from paper for interior - these are curtains, and vases, and baskets, lamps, boxes and, of course, garlands with many colors.
We propose to recall how the blind is made from paper, and once and for all solve the problem with the use of old glossy magazines. For this we need:
- old glossy magazines;
- board for slicing, for this purpose the usual wooden cutting board is suitable;
- stationery knife;
- ruler;
- PVA glue;
- Needle for winding curtain elements.
When all the materials are ready you need to determine the shape of the beads that you plan to do.
You can make the tape for the bead to be rectangular, then the bead will be a cylindrical shape. We wind the tapes on the needle, use glue only at the beginning of the tape and at the end, when you need to glue the tip. And as a result, we can get such a cheerful curtains on the balcony or at the dacha.
