to herbal stairs immediately adjacent weaving grasses on the principle of weaving - even mat on the wall, even a wreath on his head. Remember such wonderful Kupaly wreaths - shaggy like that. One friend witch at my request, told the how to make a rug that's at home (such as the reed is not at all, and it is not cheap). This rug does not just a memory of summer, it can serve as the basis for the wall panels of dried flowers or as a background for decoration handicrafts from natural materials. Mat of herbs fill the house aroma of summer meadows. A woven into his grass-amulets will help keep the house harmony and prosperity. Such is the crafty rug, with a special selection of herbs will be not just an ornament, but something more important. When selecting plants should take into account not only their value (as so common, and medical), but also their suitability for a rug strength. to work we need the following Materials: 1) need to frame a rectangular cardboard box the size of a future pad. For this purpose, the easiest way to get a box of shoes made of cardboard, namely the cover of the box. If you decide to make these mats in large quantity, something made out of wooden slats rectangular frame-frame. On two opposite sides of the cardboard cover Now, mark 1 cm, and then make small incisions. If you use a special frame made of wooden slats, then on two opposite sides of the steps nadpily or type in small clove through a 1 cm is necessary to warp thread is not crawled. 2) for the warp need skein of twine made from natural fibers. You can use thick wool threads, the so-called "village hair" thick cotton thread. Nothing should limit your imagination, you can take all the thick fibers of any color you want. May it will be even soft copper wire. 3) plaiting zagotovte variety of grasses, thin twigs, pieces plants. You can pick up the scent of grass, the texture, the combination of colors, the magical properties. 4) To decorate pick up the ribbons on your taste, thin ribbons, beads, acorns, small bumps, stones with a hole ("Chicken God"), small clams, cut figurines made of birch bark, feathers, thread beads collected all that you want to weave a rug for decoration, or according to your magical work. Pre-pierce the holes in the acorns, cones and other natural material with an awl, prepare yarns with beads or beads. These blank then it will be easier to use, not to come off during operation. Tools to work: -scissors, -long thick needle with large eye (with it easier to weave a multicolored yarn, thin ribbons), -awl to pierce holes in acorns, cones, pieces of bark. work performance. on frame (In this case, cardboard cover) pulls the base - cord, string, thick thread. The first skein to fix the knot, and then wrap the entire frame with twine so that the thread went to bed in the incised hole and did not move out. End of thread as anchoring knot. When the base is stretched, we begin to weave between the warp threads, pre-cooked grass alternating them according to your taste with the threads of a stub of beads, threads with beads, lace, twigs and other materials that we have prepared. Way to weave better to choose the most simple, alternating yarns through one, so that after drying herbs is better to keep the basis mat. Weaving grass, you need to keep the bottom of the stalk, alternately twisting stem a "string" basis. Direction Netting should be changed, weaving grass turns - to the right, then left, so that the flower remained that one or the other side mat, for uniform edge. After every blade of grass interwoven to gently squeeze netting that was like a rug can be more dense, because when the grass dries, weaving becomes more rare.
Notes. * The first and the last blade of grass take a more robust, so that after drying grass mat has not lost shape. It is best to first and last strip choose not grass, and twigs. * Better use of herbs with sturdy stems. And are more convenient to bind the warp, they better keep their shape and less distorted after drying. For an average strip of Russia You can find these herbs: Yarrow, St. John's wort, sage, heather, oregano, tansy, wormwood, motherwort, any tall grasses. You can also use thin twigs of trees. * Aromatic Herbal mats balm, valerian, yarrow, Leonurus, heather help with headaches, insomnia, nervous tension will be removed. Mint used not advise it, because at some stage of drying, it the smell is not quite pleasant. The same can be said and chamomile. Over time pad is dry, but look, I would be tales not huzhe:
