Crafts from wood for a summer residence

The dacha is the very place where things and objects are collected that do not fit into the generally accepted concepts of beauty, utility, modernity, prestige, but to the tears of the road, are comfortable and sympathetic to you personally. At the dacha you can put on Grandfather's straw hat and grandmother's shawl. It is convenient to stay in this family vestment on Papa's self-made shop, made for a dacha from a tree long before meeting your mother. Cut the freshly cut watermelon, and selflessly weave his sweet scarlet insides, extracting it directly with a spoon from the green hemisphere. Moreover, even if one of the neighbors sees you in such a strange design, he will not condemn or be surprised - you are at the dacha.

There are, of course, strange people for whom giving is not a resting place, but a plantation for grueling field work or a nature reserve in the urban style, but it's not about them and not for them. The creation of a unique interior for the dacha, the manufacture of hand-made articles made of wood, branches and other public materials is the theme of our narrative.

The most important product for giving

From wood, from slate, from metal sheets, from bricks, and from anything - but at the dacha there must necessarily be a toilet. A classic street house, to which the folk path will not grow. This is the first building that appears on the site, because the builders are also people. In the high cost of building materials, the presence of great creative potential and a great desire to create, we propose to make this wooden craft, more precisely from wooden bars.

The principle of construction is exactly the same as that on which the famous log cabinets "without a single nail" were built. Well, you are not so hot that it does not come out like the average brother of Naf-Naf from a fairy tale about three pigs, all the same logs are much heavier than bars. In each bar you need to cut out a notch under the next layer of bars. This can be clearly seen in the picture. Having thus assembled the whole structure, the roof frame can be covered with roofing felt, roofing felt or a dense polyethylene film. The pit is made traditionally - the walls are a stone bag, and the bottom remains sandy, for additional fertilization of your beds. If you do not stint on the door and add, for example, a weather vane on the roof, this wooden building will be an ornament for the dacha.

Figures from wood for a summer residence

Owners of summer cottages on which there are old trees know a mixed feeling that arises when they need to be uprooted. Here, too, are childhood memories, and the memory of those who planted them, and the confirmation of the impermanence of everything earthly in their own garden. How can I not remember Penelope, whose house Odysseus built around the tree of olives!

But reincarnation, in this case, is possible. You just need to roll up your sleeves and arm yourself with a wood-working tool.

Landscape Decorations

If you cut out a figure and face directly from the tree trunk, a wonderful guard will turn out for the dacha. You can sharpen the top of the trunk and decorate it in the form of a helmet, the relief of the bark asks to become a beard, a few strokes for creating a chain armor - and before us Old Russian hero. The main thing is not to play a game and to perceive a hand-made article from a tree, like a sculpture for a dacha, and not treat it as an idol, which is "glad to guests", then "angry" or "here is the master".

Products from a tree for an interior of a summer residence

If you love practicality in addition to external attractiveness, you will not spend creative fervor on creating sculptures from trees that are dear to the heart. It is more useful to convert wide spits of trunks into the table top and stool seats. Or saw the trunk along and make a wonderful bench with a back. From the thick branches it is quite possible to get legs and armrests. What to do for a dacha from a tree figurines, only collecting dust, when you can use artfully curved branches like a desk lamp stand. A plafond can be made of cloth or paper, and even turn in the form of a crow's nest, from thin branches. Stylish, functional and positive.
