WE MAKE THE KITCHEN MORE CONVENIENT WITH YOUR OWN HANDS
A good housewife in the kitchen, as a rule, has a huge amount ofA number of all kinds of accessories: cutting boards, potholders, graters and cutters, nets for washing vegetables and fruits and much more. To conveniently place all this in the space of a small kitchen, use additional shelves, hangers and drawers.
In any kitchen, cleanliness and order should reign! It is easy for the hostess to work when everything is in place, and behind a bag of spices, she does not have to dive into a deep and narrow cabinet, overturning cans of croup and powdered sugar along the way. It's nice when this bag goes out silently and smoothly, and then as easily returns to its place.
Kitchen furniture is increasingly equipped with various mechanisms.
These are all kinds of sliding shelves, nets, baskets, containers, entire roll-out sections, numerous lifting devices, so-called "carousels" (rotating shelves and grids). Many devices and devices can be mounted independently, for example, to install retractable guides on a box, to adapt a retractable cutting board.

Home-made kitchen cabinets - beautiful and comfortable
In wall cabinets with glazed doors it is possible to turn simple open shelves if equipped with sliding doors made of transparent acrylic glass. Such material can be easily processed, does not beat. Install the sliding doors in the S-shaped profiles, and the height of the walls of the upper profile is greater by the height of the walls of the lower profile.
Mobile shelves and drawers
The types of kitchen mechanisms and accessories to them are extremely diverse. These are all kinds of shelves, nets, baskets, containers.
1. In the sliding saucers it is convenient to store small items.
2. As sliding shelves in kitchen cabinets, you can use metal grids, for example, from the garden grill.
3. The design of the retractable cutting board.
Kitchen lighting
The total illumination of living quarters is considered sufficient if 1-2 W of incandescent lamp power is needed per 15 m20 of area. The total illumination of the kitchen should be significantly higher - 75 W / m2 In the cooking area, the illumination should be maximum - 100 W / m2, in the eating area - 50 W / m2.
For fire safety reasons, wiring elements, sockets, switches, lamps should not be placed near the sink (closer than 60 cm). Luminaires placed above the sink and next to the stove must be protected from splashes and dust (IP22 class). Lamps must have a higher level of protection - IP54.
Cute Hanger
A wall bar with hooks for suspension of various kitchen accessories is called railing. It is good in that it allows you to free up space on work surfaces and in cabinets by hanging frequently used items. For suspension use wire hooks and special holders.
The basis of the railing is a wooden rod (preferably beech or oak) with a diameter of about 30 mm. It can be replaced by a thin-walled tube 15-20 mm. Hooks bend out of steel wire 2 mm.
Sheath for a set of kitchen knives are glued from wooden bars with grooves under the blades. For the suspension of the scabbard from stainless steel thickness of 0,5 mm, a special holder is bent. From beech or oak bars you can glue and cutting board.

Mount the disposer with your own hands
The food waste shredder (disposer) is installed under the kitchen sink in the siphon and connected to the sewage system. In fact, this "motorized trash can" in the form of a siphon, which is designed to grind the waste in a small slurry, mixing them with water, and sent to the sewer.
The waste disposal system is simple, but requires a significant amount of drained water (at least 300-400 l / h) so that there is no risk of clogging. Shredded waste favorably affects the sewage system: a suspension of waste with water cleans the pipes, and they are not covered with greasy coating. The chopper will help get rid of most of the household waste: watermelon peels, nutshells, fruit seeds, eggshells, chicken and other small bones. Solid waste is useful to the disposer - it ensures cleanliness in the crushing chamber. But the device is not "omnivorous."
So, for example, celery, ears of corn, peel of bananas have a fibrous structure and when chopped form unsinkable lumps - it is better to throw such waste in the traditional way. Disposable and steamed onion peel in large quantities are contraindicated, and hot fat - they can stick to the chopping elements and, in addition, clog the sewer pipes. You can mount the chopper on your own. First, a special flange is installed in the sink hole, then the dispenser is fixed under the sink using a bayonet lock. A sewer drain pipe is connected to the outlet of the device. After connecting to the electric network, the chopper is ready for operation.
To install the disposer, the diameter of the sink drain hole should be 89-90 mm (3 '/ 2 ″). The drain pipe with which the chopper is connected to the sewer must be smooth, as the corrugated pipe will quickly become clogged with food debris and become a source of unpleasant odors.

Grid-holder for kitchen with own hands (2)
If a large-mesh metal net is fixed to the wall above the working surface of the working table, it is convenient to hang kitchen utensils, including various shelves and holders, using hooks. It is desirable to choose a grid with a stainless coating. Mount it on the wall with screws using brackets and dowels.
Homemade shelves with doors made of acrylic glass (1) look no worse than purchased ones.

New kitchen without extra costs
According to Feng Shui, it is in the kitchen that the energy of the house is concentrated. You need to update it as often as possible. We will show you how to do it quickly and not burdensome for the budget.
Before you start, critically inspect the kitchen and determine what does not suit you. Thoroughly consider the forthcoming scope of work at the planning stage. For clarity, draw a table with approximately the following graphs.
THREE REASONS FOR CONVERSION OF KITCHEN
- Uncomfortable. The room is close or excessively spacious. Do not like arranging furniture.
- Non-functional. Lack of working surfaces, there is no place to store utensils.
- Unaesthetic. The interior is old-fashioned or provokes rejection.
Renovate the walls
The influence of time is largely exposed to the walls of the kitchen. If tiles are laid on them, clean it of contamination, and wipe the stitched seams. It is enough to wash the painted plaster. If desired, discolour the place to paint. Cracked and flaking places before painting should be taped, peeled off, primed and zashpatlevat. In order not to suffer with the choice of tone, cover the walls with white. White color, though impractical, but easier to clean: whitewashed - and forgotten.
Refresh painted walls can be using a stencil ornament or self-adhesive vinyl stickers. fastened to any flat surface and leaving no traces during dismantling.
If wallpaper on the kitchen wall, then it's unlikely to work with little blood. New wallpapers should be in harmony with the old, and do it. not having a spare roll, it's difficult. For the kitchen, vinyl, flizel-new and self-adhesive wallpaper ideally fit. They have interesting textures and bright colors, do not fade and do not burn out.
It is interesting in the kitchen look like wallpaper - widescreen, from paper or vinyl, with the image. After pasting, they are covered with a protective varnish. Such wallpaper is not afraid of wet cleaning and mechanical damage, and will last at least 15 years. Photo wallpapers will help visually divide the space of the kitchen into zones. Expressive pictures and juicy colors will give brightness to a monochrome interior. In the design it is better to use the colors present in the decor elements, and monochrome images can be combined with both monochrome and multi-colored facades.
Upgrade your furniture
Depending on the tasks assigned, the furniture question can be solved in four directions.
1. Constructive design.
The task is simplified if the kitchen set is modular. Change the modules in places, move the lockers to a different height or wall, add a new section (cabinet, cabinet or shelf) or remove unnecessary.
If you have to work with inseparable furniture, then rationalize its internal space:
- Revise the height and number of shelves in the cabinets;
- Replace high shelves on drawers or provide easy access to their contents;
- in the corner cabinet, install the "Carousel" system.
Interior details | Lack of | Solution | Materials and Tools |
Walls | Eerie color | Pose wallpaper | Wallpaper, glue, brush for glue |
Battery | Oblezla | Dye | Paint, brush |
Chairs | The upholstery was rubbed | Replace the upholstery | Thick fabric, furniture stapler |
2. Modernization of the table and chairs.
Method for updating the table and chairs, depending on the material from which they are made.
Damaged plastic on the table top and chairs can not be restored. Furniture made of laminated MDF and chipboard is unreasonable to restore: the cost of materials may exceed the price of the product.
To update the wooden surface is the easiest. Remove the spoiled layer of paint or varnish conveniently with a grinder. Cracks, irregularities and joints, cover with putty and allow to dry. Apply a coat of lacquer, allow it to dry and sand the surface with fine-grained sandpaper. After depending on the desired spread, apply two or three layers of stain.
Treat the countertop with a water repellent. Damaged areas of furniture should be silenced in time or waxed with a wax candle.
Fix the loose parts, replace the failed hardware, lubricate the sliding mechanism with engine oil and process the cracks.
A modern look to the old dining table will give new wooden or metal legs, bought in a store of furniture accessories. In the furniture fashion - a combination of different textures; metal and wood, wood and plastic. Instead of a new chair, buy the actual plastic seat and install it on the old frame.
The old table is replaced with a folding wooden or plastic panel fixed to the wall. The table-transformer will free up space in the cramped kitchen and bring a fresh touch of 8 interior.
3. Resuscitation of surfaces.
A faded kitchen set can be repainted. Matte shade of the facade will provide a special furniture paint for wood. Lacquer the headset produce automotive varnish. Artificially grow old, and then decorate the wooden furniture. The sepia effect, popular in Europe, is achieved by coloring in the technique of craquelure (cracked coating) and decoration in decoupage technique (decoration with carved pictures that looks like an art painting).
The facades of the furniture set "will come to life" with a new stylish mixer, an updated table top and an apron.
You can update the kitchen apron with wooden panels or photo wallpapers placed under tempered glass. An interesting effect will create the lining of individual surfaces with untreated wood in combination with metallic and glossy surfaces. The old table top will hide ceramic tiles or colored glass
4. Replacement of facades.
If the doors of kitchen cabinets are worn out, replace them with open shelves or change the facade of the headset. The choice of material for kitchen facades and the range of color solutions today are wider than ever. The fashion trend is a light top, a dark bottom. Popular curtains from frosted glass.
The interior will be visually simplified by replacing the blind doors with a headset for infills with textured inserts. The original solution is the mirror door. This will expand the space, fill the kitchen with light and create a window effect in the work area.
In the kitchen in the rustic style, the doors of the facades of the lower tier can be replaced with cozy curtains on the wings, in harmony with the rest of the kitchen textiles.
Transform the kitchen furniture will help the new furniture. Replace the door handles, shelf corners and attachments.
Optimize lighting
If the light in the kitchen is dim, pick up the chandelier for more lamps. Highlight the dining and working areas will help the floor lamp, sconce or desk lamp. Purchase additional lights that plug into the outlet.
In the work area, LED strips will add comfort, because they will give a bright light. At the same time they are 20 times more economical than incandescent lamps and will last at least 100 thousand hours.
If you install a dimmer - a device for changing the voltage, you can adjust the brightness of the light at will. LEDs can be selected in different colors - this will refresh the kitchen interior. Decorative illumination will justify itself in the modern interior.
Become a decorator!
In fashion - a mix of antiquity and modernity. It is not necessary to spend money on new equipment, if there is no demolition of the old ZIL refrigerator. Elements of retro in the modern kitchen - the trend of the year. Refresh household appliances with a new layer of paint or a self-adhesive film. Decorate the kitchen can be several new cups, plates or baskets. The modern style is suitable bright dishes made of plastic and colored glass.
To the noble classic - traditional porcelain and faience. A sense of comfort in the kitchen will create living plants.
Pay attention to the textile design. Curtains, tablecloths, potholders and cushions on the chairs should be in harmony with each other and meet the general style of the kitchen. Roller blinds made of natural materials will become a practical window design option. Tablecloths and napkins can be chosen from mixed fabrics. Look well in cases on chairs and decorative pillows from combined fabrics.
Depending on the materials used and the amount of work, the renovation of the kitchen by its own means will cost 10-20 thousand rubles!

ACCESSORIES FOR KITCHEN BY OUR HANDS - IDEAS FROM READERS
Vegetable slicer with own hands
To quickly and efficiently cut into slices products without residues and do not get hurt, made a slice of carpentry technology (in the manner of shredding - ed.).
It took: a circular saw, replaceable blades for a wallpaper knife, a square bar, a board, a chisel.
For the manufacture of the case of a slicer, I chose a groove with a circular saw in the bar - I obtained a U-shaped blank
In the middle of it, a thin cut (at an angle of no more than 45 degrees) made a thin cut. Densely inserted into it a replacement blade. Parallel to the first sawed out a second, but a wider propyl - through it slices of vegetables when sliced fall into a substituted container (see main photo) On the second board of the device hollowed out a chisel cavity (photo 1). I shift to it the remainder of the maximum cut (as described above), the vegetable and I plan it with the underside of the slicer. All the contents remain in the U-shaped part, as on a plate (photo 2)
Note
Vary the thickness of the cutting of products, you can by installing blades of different thickness.

TAP WITH POCKETS “PREPARING SEASON” OWN HANDS
Kitchen potholders are indispensable helpers for the housewife, especially during the harvest preservation season. There are few requirements for this simple accessory: it should protect your hands, preventing burns during cooking, and have a beautiful appearance, as an element of decor. I propose to sew such an accessory from small pieces of fabric that are likely to be found in any needlewoman.
- I cut out two rectangles of 70 × 20 cm from the fabric (including allowances) and four rectangles for pockets 24 × 20 cm. Using a plate of suitable size, I rounded off the corners on long blanks on each side, and on short ones on one side. From batting I carved one large and two small rectangles.
- She folded the details of the pockets in pairs, face inward, stitched on the straight side (without rounding). Turned around, bent over the seam to the front side, steamed. She put batting and quilted with a curly seam (photo 1). I folded the details of the base together outward, put in batting and similarly performed the stitch. Harvested steamed.
- Pinned pockets on each side of a long workpiece with pins, aligning the rounded sections. I cut out a fabric at an angle of 45 degrees, stripes with a width of 3 cm. I skimmed this stick around the entire perimeter of the handle (photo 2). I sewed an eyelet.
A beautiful and comfortable assistant is ready!

PLATE “OLIVES” OWN HANDS
Beautiful interiors are judged by their individuality. That is why it is customary to decorate walls in houses with paintings, photographs, carpets, as well as decorative plates. This is a fairly simple and also economical way to transform, for example, the interior of a kitchen and add a twist to it.
The glass of the transparent plate is degreased with nail polish remover. We cut out the desired plot from the decoupage napkin. Separate the extra layers in it. We put the pattern face down on the bottom of the plate from the outside and apply decoupage glue (you can dilute PVA with water 1: 1).
The entire surface of the plate on top of the picture (blotting movements with a sponge) is covered with one-step craquelure varnish (photo 1). Dry for 30 minutes.
By the way
If you do not have craquelure varnish, use PVA glue. Brush it evenly with a sufficiently thick layer. Remove air bubbles with a brush, gently sweeping the surface. Dry this layer: the glue should not reach behind the brush and stick to your hands, but under the top film it will still be damp. Apply acrylic paint on top and blow dry. Under the influence of warm air, the glue dries, forming cracks on the surface.
On top of the varnish we apply a matte acrylic paint of light green color with a sponge. Dry in the wild or with a hot hairdryer. Paint cracks from exposure to craquelure varnish (photo 2)
Note
The thinner the paint, the smaller the cracks.
We cover the main background with white paint with a sponge, achieving the effect of white cracks. Sushim. If necessary, a second coat can be applied.
Outside, we decorate the plate with monograms using a golden acrylic outline. Dry with a hairdryer and then cover with acrylic varnish.

OWN SUSPENSION BLADE FOR KITCHEN
An ordinary kitchen spatula can be an interesting element of the interior. And if you make a series of such accessories, no one will remain indifferent, many will remember their childhood and vacations spent in the village with their grandmother.
You will need: a wooden kitchen spatula, PVA glue, air plasticine, herbarium, stacks.
We draw sketches, arrange objects according to the idea. Today it is fashionable to use things for other purposes, for example, to decorate the interior with a whole series of flower-embroidered strainers intended for sifting flour.
This composition can be made from salted dough, then each detail or a small series of nearby objects must be sculpted and dried separately, and only then assembled and glued into a composition.
We mix pieces of airy plasticine to natural shades, but at the same time we leave colored streaks. We sculpt, adhering to the sketch, lightly gluing the details on the PVA. To save plasticine, we initially make the base of large parts from foil, then we stick around it. The material dries quickly, so we work with a small amount, keep the rest of the mass in a tightly closed bag.
After drying, the surface becomes matte, pleasantly velvety to the touch, not greasy at all and resembles foamiran. The products are lightweight, but they cannot be wetted - the plasticine becomes limp almost instantly. Its plus is that it is well covered with polyurethane varnish and then moisture is not terrible. At the final stage, we work out the shadows falling from objects with cosmetic shadows or loose pastels and lay out the herbarium, fixing it on PVA.

SPECIAL BOX "PROVENCE" OWN HANDS
A wooden box remains from an old sewing machine. Made from it a vintage Provence-style box for storing spices.
- She took off the pen. Sandpaper the entire surface of the box. I covered the traces of the bark beetle, chips and cracks with acrylic putty with a rubber spatula. I dried and sanded the surface with sandpaper. I primed the box with white acrylic paint.
- On the long ends of the box, I glued fragments of napkins on PVA. I covered the workpiece with one layer of acrylic varnish, dried it and painted the outside and inside with pistachio acrylic paint, except for the glued fragments. The wooden plaques and new handles are also painted in this shade. Using a thin brush and dark green paint, I painted on one plate “Herbs”, on the other “Spices”. I covered the item with a layer of acrylic varnish.
- On the short end of the box, I fixed the stencil with masking tape. I put putty on it and immediately removed the plastic. I dried and sanded the embossed pattern with sandpaper. I repeated it on the other side. I tinted the product with bitumen varnish using a sponge. I brightened the overall tone of the box, the ends, the plates, the handles with ivory paint. Covered with varnish. I sprayed with a toothbrush with brown paint and ivory. I applied two layers of varnish with intermediate drying.

You will need: fabric (linen, cotton, satin, mixed fabric) a hoop or stretcher satin ribbons 0 cm wide yarn Iris needle satin ribbon for binding.
- We draw a pattern in full size. We take the simplest cut as a basis, the dimensions can be adjusted individually (see diagram 1 on page 17) To round off the edges at the bottom of the apron, you can use a cup or saucer of a suitable size.
- Determine the location of the pockets and embroidery. For embroidery, cut out a fabric that is larger than the final piece, about 4-5 cm on each side, so that you can hoop it. We cut out 2 details for the pocket: for embroidery and for duplication.
- We lay out the main pattern on the seamy side of the fabric. You do not have to leave any allowances for edge processing.
- We embroider the upper part of the bodice and the pocket. To do this, we transfer the schemes to the fabric through carbon paper (photo 1, scheme 2, 3), then we pull the fabric onto a stretcher and fix it with buttons (photo 2, 3) We embroider the stems of flowers with a stalk seam, we make shorter stitches in the places of rounding (photo 4) We sew the petals with straight ribbon stitches, without tightening them. to make the drawing three-dimensional (photo 5). We fix the tape on the seamy side by burning it with a lighter and immediately pressing it with a finger to the fabric (photo 6) We iron the finished parts. Then we cut out the upper part of the bodice and the pocket in accordance with the main pattern.
- From the top cut, measure down the width of the embroidered part of the bodice and put a mark. We put the embroidered detail on the front side of the main apron face down, combining the lower cut with the line of the mark (photo 7), we mark it. We attach the bodice according to the outline to the main part. We bend the part up, combining the upper sections (photo 8), and we attach the other three sides of the bodice side to the edge, connecting the embroidered part and the main part.
- We process the top with an oblique inlay. Put the binding on the front side of the upper cut of the bodice with the front side down. We turn away the edge and combine the cuts, secure with pins (photo 9). We attach the inlay along the fold (photo 10). We turn the tape over to the wrong side, fold it so that its fold is flush or covers the previous seam. We fasten with pins and attach the inlay on the front side (photo 11)
It's important
Tailor's pins should be located strictly perpendicular to the machine seam so as not to break the needle of the machine.
- We fold the embroidered part of the pocket with the duplicating fabric with the wrong sides inward. So that the hem is not too thick, we shift the upper cut of the embroidered part by 1 cm (photo 12). We carry out double hemming (photo 13) and spend it.
- We put the pocket on the front of the main pattern, combining the bottom and side sections (photo 14). We attach to the edge. In the center, we sew the pocket either with a double stitch, or with a zigzag 1,5 by 0,6. We process the straight side cuts and the bottom edge with a bias tape in the same way as the bodice.
- To complete the apron, we process the side sections of the bodice, simultaneously forming the side and top strings. To do this, we leave the ends of the inlets of the corresponding sizes: at the top about 50 cm, the side ones - 30-35 cm.Fold the free ends of the inlets in half, combining the folds, and sew them to the edge (photo 15)
- For the potholder, we cut out 2 parts from the remnants of the fabric (back and palm (with embroidery) according to scheme 3. We also cut out two parts of the lining and one from the insulation (it will be on the palm side). Sew the upper parts, sew in the lining and insulation. we process it with an oblique inlay. Sew on a loop from a ribbon for hanging.
- For jam jars, you can also sew embroidered napkins. Place the embroidery itself in the center. Then we cut out a circle from this fabric 10 cm larger than the diameter of the lid. Sew the blank with embroidery and the lining in pairs, decorate the edges with inlay.

DIY KITCHEN ORGANIZER
For creating a special atmosphere of a cozy kitchen It’s enough to add a fresh touch to her interior by complementing it with bright and original handmade accessories. I want to share ideas on how to make a beautiful and bright organizer for the kitchen that will not only fit perfectly into the interior, but will also give the joy and warmth of something made with your own hands.
You will need: a mold (I have a small tray) a plastic pickle bucket plaster (alabaster) fabric braid cord paper napkin with a pattern PVA glue hot-melt gun acrylic paint varnish acrylic plasticine.
I cut off the top of the bucket and cut it in half lengthwise. We only need one half (photo 1).
I covered the outer part of the part with fabric: first the bottom, and then the side wall. I decorated it with decorative braid, covering the seams of the fabric. On the tray I marked a place for the holes for the cord: I formed cylinders from plasticine and glued them to the mold.
Using hot glue at four points, I glued the bucket to the tray (photo 2).
I diluted the plaster of Paris in water to the consistency of pancake batter. I poured it into the mold and left it until completely dry (photo 3).
The next day I took the organizer blank out of the mold. I removed the plasticine and now I have two holes for hanging. I sanded the surface to make it smooth.
I painted it with white acrylic paint and left it to dry. After about two hours I painted the edge and end brown. Using the same shade, using a semi-dry sponge, I tinted the workpiece around the perimeter (photo 4).
I picked out a drawing on a napkin. It is better to choose a plot on a white background - this will eliminate the need to paint over the transition between the picture and the main background. Carefully tore off the edges of the design and separated the top layer of the napkin from the two bottom ones.
I moistened the selected area of the surface with PVA glue, applied the drawing and carefully smoothed it from the center to the edge with a brush well soaked in the glue (photo 5). After drying, I coated the organizer with acrylic varnish in 2-3 layers and dried it again.
I glued a cord (0 cm) around the perimeter of the bucket. The same cord was threaded into the prepared holes. Ready!

DIY SPICE ORGANIZER
Until recently, a constant problem in my kitchen was spice storage system. I bought different organizers, bags, jars, but none of these devices took root, and constantly changing tastes led to chaos. And finally I decided create a storage system that would meet all my needs: it would be compact, understandable and easy to use.
You needed: a metal sheet, small and flat neodymium magnets, metal jars with screw caps and a window, superglue, liquid nails, stickers with the names of spices.
I bought a set of 10 ml metal mini-jars with lids. The advantage of containers made of such material is their tightness, thanks to which spices can be protected from air and moisture, which allows them to preserve their aroma and taste. From my own experience I am convinced that you should Avoid using aluminum cans as they may react with acidic spices or lead to changes in taste.
First of all, I used liquid nails to glue a metal sheet to the inside of the kitchen cabinet door. I used a protective sheet for fireplaces, but you can also use a magnetic board or just a sheet of any metal that the magnet will be attracted to.
I glued magnets to the bottom of the jars on the outside with superglue, having previously degreased the surface. I placed a sticker with the name of the spice on the lids and filled the containers. I attached the finished jars to a metal sheet on the inside of the cabinet door. My organizer is ready - everything you need for improvisation in the kitchen is at hand in the right quantity. My spices are always in order, and I always know which one is running out and what needs to be purchased.

NOTE: STORING SEASONING CORRECTLY
The taste and aroma of spices play an important role in creating great dishes. Proper storage allows you to maintain their freshness and quality for a long time. Therefore, I will dwell in more detail on how to choose the right containers.
Glass
Glass jars have proven to be one of the most aesthetically pleasing options for storing spices. They are extremely popular. First of all, it is protection from light and moisture: glass has an excellent ability to preserve bulk products for a long time. Glass jars also allow you to see what's inside, saving time and making searching easier. Such containers retain odor well.
Metal
Metal cans are also very popular. They can be made of stainless steel or tin, strong and durable. The advantage of metal jars is that they are airtight, so spices can be protected from air and moisture, which also helps preserve their flavor. However, you should avoid using aluminum cans as they can react with acidic spices and cause the flavor to change.
Plastic
Plastic containers are also widely used for storing spices. However, you should be careful when choosing plastic, as some types may contain harmful chemicals that can leach into the spices and negatively affect their quality. It is recommended to choose plastic containers that are labeled “food safe.”

DIY KITCHEN HANGER FOR Utensils
Every item in the kitchen should have its place.
However, it is often not so easy to place kitchen utensils conveniently and beautifully.
And what trade offers does not always meet desires and capabilities.
Using 16mm beech rod, 6mm aluminum rod and ten S-hooks you can easily make a rod for hanging kitchen utensils.
Eight to ten kitchen “tools” can be placed on a 400 mm long rod
Using a miter box, two pieces 30 mm long are sawn off from a round block at a right angle to the axis of the block.
A hole for screwing is drilled in the center of one of the ends of each workpiece. To do this, use a homemade device: a piece of board is attached to the plate of a drill stand and a hole is drilled in it, the diameter of which is equal to the diameter of the beech blanks. Then, removing the device from the rack, insert the workpieces into its hole one by one and use a 03 mm drill to drill a blind hole for a screw to a depth of 5 mm in the center of the end. Drill carefully so that the drill does not move to the side.
Having re-attached the template to the rack plate, you can also use it when drilling 06 mm holes for an aluminum rod in the side workpieces. These holes are deep enough
to install the rod, drill at some distance from the end.
The rod should fit tightly into them. Screw an M4 pin into the hole in the end of the workpiece and install it in the chuck of an electric drill with adjustable rotation speed. At low speed, first sand the workpieces with fine sandpaper, and then apply wax to the part and polish it with a soft cloth.
Polish the aluminum rod in the same way.
You should work with gloves. For nickel-plated hooks with bend radii of 8 and 12 mm, the end with a large radius is bent slightly. This will make it more convenient to hang the item.
The hooks are put on the bar, and beech stacks are pressed tightly onto its ends - and the “hanger” is ready.
You can secure it with studs or, after removing them, with screws.
Having installed the workpiece in a homemade device, drill a hole 20 mm deep in the center.
The hole for the aluminum rod is drilled using the same device.
Beech parts are polished and the sharp edges are rounded.
Tip: if you don’t want to drill holes to mount a “hanger” in a wall or furniture, do this: drill two holes in a 20×3 aluminum strip, countersink them and attach the “hanger” to it with countersunk screws. Apply double-sided adhesive tape to the strip on top, and then glue the entire structure in the selected location.
STYLISH ORGANIZER FOR THE KITCHEN WITH YOUR HANDS
I made a kitchen organizer for spice jars or oil bottles. Connoisseurs of aesthetics and stylish interiors will definitely like this work! I'll tell you more about the manufacturing process.
It took: wood, a jigsaw/hacksaw, a router, sandpaper, a screwdriver, a drill, self-tapping screws, PVA glue, a gas torch, a wire brush, acrylic paint and brush varnish.
I always use a professional tool, but you can do without it. The diagram showed how you can get around smooth lines cut with a jigsaw. You can also not mill the parts, just sand the edge with sandpaper.
I cut out all the details to size from fragments of pine wood. Then she burned each one with a torch until it was black. Afterwards, I “combed” the carbon deposits with a metal brush strictly along the direction of the wood fibers. I wiped the parts with a dampened rag until the soot was washed off. I dried the pieces thoroughly.
The next stage is assembly. For convenience, I fixed all the parts according to the drawing with PVA glue: I have a Joiner moment (it grabs quickly and firmly). Then I drilled holes for the screws to avoid cracks and chips, and only then screwed them in. Assembly is complete.
I painted it with acrylic paint, but not carefully, because I planned to “age” the organizer later. I left the painted product to dry for about an hour. After everything had dried, I took 400 grit sandpaper and sanded the product, creating artificial abrasions. After sanding, I took a damp cloth and dusted the surfaces. At the final stage, I applied acrylic varnish to the product in two layers. You can make a stencil or decoupage if you wish. The organizer is READY!

HOMEMADE CAKE BOWL WITH YOUR HANDS
Rotating cake stand - a necessary tool for confectioners and an excellent help for hospitable housewives. Such rotating stands for decorating your baked goods look great both at a large feast and during home tea drinking. I selected wooden blanks measuring 32x210x210 mm for the base (it’s important to find a solid piece and not one glued together from several parts), 50x50x127 mm for the stand, as well as a blank 20 mm thick for the top plate, 15 mm larger than the diameter of the cake lid.
I drew diagonals on the plate and base blanks. I marked the center of rotation and drew a circle with a diameter of 200 mm for the base. The diameter of the plate should be 15 mm larger than the diameter of your existing lid. I used a jigsaw to cut out circles with an allowance of about 3 mm. I sanded the plate blank to the circle line.
By the way
Before you begin, you should have a cake lid on hand to adjust the dimensions of the top plate of the cake pan to fit it.
I drilled a guide hole in the base blank for the threaded center from the top side. I marked the centers on both ends of the stand blank. I assembled the entire structure using dowels and wood glue. Additionally, I sanded it with fine sandpaper, removed any dust and covered it with two layers of colored oil (Golden Graphite color and a little Wenge). It turned out stylish and reliable!
Note
Symmetrical seams on a cake pan look better. If you have to make a stand from glued blanks, use boards of the same width for the plate and base, and the same thickness for the stand. Then place the centers exactly on the glue lines. Then glue-; The seams on the parts will be symmetrical, and this will improve the appearance of the stand.

Stand for plates in eco-style))
I didn’t even think that eco-style using wood treated with stain is so cool and beautiful. In my cupboards with dishes I found plates to decorate the interior. I really like their shape and texture, but standard coasters just didn't work for them. I decided to make it myself, inspired by the strict Scandinavian style.
It took: 3 wooden parts 25 cm each (base or bottom of the box) 4 parts 29 cm each (crossbars) 4 wooden parts 12 cm high (side parts).
After assembling the bottom and walls of the box from wooden parts, I added one more crossbar on the wide sides. I fixed everything with Tybon glue. Any construction contact adhesive for wood, liquid nails or self-tapping screws are also suitable for these purposes. In order for the plates to stand upright and stable, I drilled six holes in the bottom of the box. I took measurements based on the size of the plates and their depth.
I had to tinker with the partitions inside my craft. At first I bought a handle for a shovel, but it turned out to be very thick and looked rough. Therefore, I chose furniture dowels for the crossbars. They are inexpensive, but durable and made of natural wood. I glued them inside the structure. I decorated the craft with decorative molding in the shape of tree leaves, which I glued to the top edges and center. I covered the entire workpiece with stain, dried it and placed the plates (see photo).

An ordinary enamel mug can decorate the kitchen!
We eliminate scuffs, chipped pieces of enamel from it. We paint with white enamel (better for heating radiators, in a day we start a new image of the mug.
To create a mosaic application, we select a suitable stencil, put thick cellophane on it. We first check if it wrinkles when the paint dries (if necessary, we take a denser one). Draw a stained glass outline around the lines of the drawing. We dry for a couple of hours, then fill it with multi-colored stained glass (or acrylic) paints of the mosaic sector. The contour should firmly and firmly "grow" with them. After drying, we check if the application will not tear when removed from the cellophane, you can apply a second layer.
We remove the application and carefully apply it to the mug: it sticks quite easily. If not, the work surface can be lightly sprayed with water from a spray bottle.

Salt shaker in 5 minutes with your own hands
In just a few minutes, you can make handy spice containers that you can take with you when going camping or on a picnic.
I put hot glue on a sheet of parchment to make a round with a diameter of about 3-3,5 cm (photo 1). From a plastic bottle with an elongated neck, I cut off the upper part (the neck itself) of a suitable length, about 10 cm (photo 2). I set it on a circle of glue and leave it for a couple of minutes (until the glue hardens). I cut off excess glue with scissors (photo 3). With a needle heated over a lighter, I pierce several holes in the lid, fill the resulting container. The salt shaker is ready. Such "jars" can be made several and in different colors or from transparent necks - you get a camping set for spices.

DIY decoupage plates
The idea came up after watching the "Housing Question" program. I also decided to decorate my white gas stove cover with decoupage. I bought a sheet of rice paper with a drawing and set to work.
The size of the lid is 50 × 55 cm. I washed it thoroughly and degreased it with alcohol. I put the drawing face down on plastic wrap. I applied decoupage glue and gently attached the picture to the lid, the greased side. I smoothed out folds, air bubbles and excess glue, drove out with a rubber spatula. She carefully removed the tape. The size of my drawing is 35 × 45 cm. Therefore, after the glue dried, I finished painting the vase and the table with acrylics. Has dried. Covered the surface first with spray varnish from a spray can, and then with heat-resistant varnish. A small craquelure (cracks) appeared due to the chemical incompatibility of the heat-resistant varnish with acrylic paints and spray varnish. The updated plate cover is ready! The temperature test was successful!

DIY hot stand "Bunnies"
In the kitchen of any hostess, hot coasters are not superfluous. You can make them from the most ordinary board and decorate using the techniques of brushing and decoupage.
1. From a pine board 2 cm thick I cut a circle for a stand with a jigsaw. I burned the workpiece with a gas burner so that the top layer of wood turns black (photo 1). Then, with a metal brush, I "combed out" the wood in the direction of the grain. The result is a texture - a wood pattern.
2. Covered the front side of the mug with white paint and, without waiting for it to dry, ran it along the surface in the direction of the fibers with an old plastic card, removing excess paint and highlighting the pattern (photo 2) Left to dry.

DIY spice organizer
In the kitchen of any housewife, there are always many bags with various spices. Such a convenient and beautiful box is useful for storing them. With him, all seasonings will always be in place. Due to its small size, the product fits perfectly into a kitchen cabinet or fits on a desktop.
I cut out parts from fiberboard (can be replaced with plywood, wood or thick cardboard) using a clerical knife. I glued them together with a thermal gun (for secure attachment, you can nail small nails in some places). I covered the surface of the box with white acrylic paint in two layers. Has dried. I glued a wooden chipboard (carved element) to the front. I painted it and the inner walls of the organizer in turquoise. Decorated the side parts with napkin decoupage. I covered the finished product with acrylic varnish.

Stand under the hot hands
Together with the students, they figured out how to make practical hot coasters from old jeans and CDs. Such an activity develops fine motor skills well, knowledge of basic hand seams will be useful for children for the future, and a convenient stand will be a great surprise for mothers.
Two circles were cut out of jeans fabric along the diameter of the disk with an allowance of 1 cm at the edges. The fabric was glued to the disk on both sides using PVA (photo 1). Dried. A thick thread (yarn for knitting) of a contrasting color, hiding the knot inside the circles, sewed the edges with a buttonhole (photo 2). It is very important to maintain the height of the posts and the width between them. In this case, the disc serves not only as a solid base, but also as a limiter to the stitch height. Sewing the blank in a circle, sewed a loop and tied it with a buttonhole stitch.

DIY kitchen trio
I bring to your attention a kitchen set for storing cutlery and spices.
A container for cutlery made from a can of coffee. I cleaned it from the remnants of the label and degreased it with acetone. I wrapped the container with twine around the middle, and used a heat gun to fix the thread.
Then I glued a strip of double-sided tape on the jar in diameter and wrapped it with green yarn. Then - again with twine almost to the very top and another strip of green yarn. The upper edge was decorated with a twine pigtail, and decorative acorns and a flower were glued to the sidewall.
I had a jar with a cap in the shape of a hat. I decided to use it to store spices. The jar was not wrapped so that it was visible what was stored in it, but the hat was decorated in the same way as the cutlery container, with twine, and decorated with artificial berries and a flower.
By the same principle, she designed a glass bottle, since there remained twine, yarn and decorative ornaments.
Recently, a friend came to visit, saw my kitchen trio, and she really liked it, so she made a similar set for her.

DIY hot coasters
After finishing the kitchen apron, there was ceramic tile. She was waiting in the wings until she needed a hot stand.
Picked up four oak blocks with a cross section of 50 × 50 mm. In each in one of the faces I chose a full-length groove with a width equal to the thickness of the tile and a depth of 15 mm. I cut all the bars along the ends at an angle of 45 degrees, so that when assembling into a square frame, the tile fit tightly into the grooves of all the bars. I polished the wooden parts with fine sandpaper. I missed the grooves with glue
The moment and secured the bars on the edges of the tiles, clamped with clamps. At the joints at the corners, I drilled holes and inserted dowels into them, also having previously greased them with glue. On the lower edges of the bars I chose the recesses. The stand is ready, the wife decorated the tiles using decoupage technique (photo 1) A little later, in the same way, I made several more coasters for cups from smaller tiles (photo 2).

DIY Cutlery Stand
RECENTLY I HAVE BROKEN THE ELECTRIC KETTLE. DO NOT RISE OUT THE HAND; IT IS MADE OF FOOD STAINLESS STEEL. THINKING A LONG TIME, GIVING HIM A SECOND LIFE, MAKING FROM THE HOUSING A STAND FOR CUTLERY.
Preparation of parts
He unscrewed the bottom of the kettle and detached the lid and handle. I also unscrewed all the electrical elements from the stand (from which the kettle works).
I cut out three disks d 5, 70 and 95 mm from plywood 145 mm thick. In each, in the center, I drilled holes d 6 mm. Prepared sections for cutlery (photo 1): cut the bottles from the air freshener on top, and glued plastic threaded necks to the bottom with a heat gun. The covers from the latter were fixed similarly on the disk d 145 mm (photo 2).
Assembly
At the end of an MB stud, 120 mm in length, screwed the nut, then threaded a d 70 mm disc onto it, on top of the stand and onto it - the kettle upside down (photo 3). All details are rigidly fixed by strung a d xNUMX mm disk on a hairpin and clamped with a nut.
Then he placed a disk with plugs inside the base, and screwed a tube d 10 mm 250 mm long with a plastic nut on the end onto the hairpin (photo 4)
I screwed previously prepared sections into corks and placed cutlery in them. The design turned out to be convenient and compact, in addition, it can be quickly disassembled and washed.

Tack from the corners of their own hands
Using the technique of the swing corners, you can sew an original tack, a pillow, a rug or a panel from cloth shreds.
Depending on the density of the fabric, I sew the corners in different ways:
From thin tissue, I cut out squares of about 6 × 6 cm. Each of them is folded diagonally inside out and ironed. I bend the resulting triangles in half and iron them again. If at the corner you need to show the vertical line of the joining of the sides, then first I bend the square in half horizontally inside out, and then fold it in the corner.
I cut the thick fabric into rectangles 4 × 6 cm in size. On one of the long sides I bend 0,7 cm to the wrong side, smooth and then turn the corners to the midline of the patch - the corner is hardly added. If the fabric does not crumble, I cut parts from it in the form of a semicircle with a diameter of 5-7 cm. Then I bend the sides to the midline, fold the workpiece in half and iron it - I get a corner in four additions.
Before sewing the corners, I prepare the basis of dense fabric in the form of a future product. To it I pin the corners, which can touch or enter each other, go one on another. Having laid the first row, I set it up, stepping back from the base of the 0,5-1, see. Then I sew the next row, arranging the corners in a staggered manner, relative to the previous ones, or one under the other. At the same time, I try to hide the line of the sewn row and do not forget to iron each layer well. I trim the edges and corners of the finished product with a slanting inlay, sew the lining from the inside.
Note Corners can be sewn in a circle, square or rectangle, corners to the center or away from it. From blanks of different colors, you can create patterns.

Heart pot holders
Since such an accessory, like tacks, is always in sight, they should look neat and beautiful. Unfortunately, kitchen assistants quickly lose their appearance, so there are certainly few of them.

With the advent of the combine in the kitchen, the metal graters were relegated to the background and gathering dust in the cabinets. In order not to shift them endlessly from place to place, I made creative lighting above the table.
■ Terki washed and dried thoroughly. In the handle of each, drilled through the hole and fixed them cords with cartridges.
From a board with a cross section of 15 × 1,5 cm and slats with a cross section of 6 × 1,5 cm, I made a suspension box. I drilled in it along the middle the right number of holes for the wires. The latter together with shades (graters) led into the holes, connected in parallel and connected the free end of the wire to the wiring.
Box-suspension on ropes and screw-rings attached to the ceiling so that you can adjust the distance between the light and the table top.

DIY kitchen hangers
In order to maintain order and not litter the space of lockers and drawers of a small kitchen set, he made simple holders for large cutlery.
I prepared the drawings and the sketch (see fig. 1, 2 on page 11) made two parts of the d 12 mm pipe - L-shaped and in the form of a bracket.
In each workpiece drilled the required number of holes 5 mm for hooks. Last made of wire of the desired diameter.
In order to fasten the holders under the cabinets, the suspension was bent from wire d mm 5 mm (fig. 1, 2 p. 2)
I cleaned all the prepared parts and assembled the holders: welded hooks into the holes (fig. 1, 2 n. 3), also fixed the suspensions. Both products are primed and painted with white waterproof enamel.
When the coating is dry, set the holders in place - L-shaped above the sink (photo 1), in the form of a bracket - on the cabinet next to the stove (photo 2) On hooks hung everything that should be at hand.

Spices on clothespins
I found the use of wooden clothespins, which have not been used for a long time, having made a convenient holder for bags with spices. Share your idea with you.
Disassembled on the slats old wooden box. He cleaned the blanks with a brush with a metal pile, lightly burned it with a gas torch and cleaned it with sandpaper. He put three planks together and, stepping back from the edges approximately 10 cm, nailed two cross-beams to them with small studs. He turned the product over to the other side and glued five clothespins to the plane at an equal distance from each other with a thermogun. Painted with stain, covered with a layer of colorless varnish on wood and screwed a spoon. The spice holder is ready (photo 1).
When a friend of my wife came to visit and saw an interesting thing, I wanted the same for myself. Made for her something similar, but out of plywood and decoupage (photo 2)

I put things in order on the site and saw a small twig with knots. In my head immediately ripened the idea of making a cup holder, which I had long wanted to buy.
The branch and knots on it were cut to the right size with a hacksaw.
I cleaned the workpiece from the bark and processed it with fine sandpaper. A double coat of colorless varnish was applied to the finished rack on wood with interlayer drying. From plywood 5 mm thick I cut a square blank 200 × 200 mm in size and screwed it with screws to the lower end of the rack. The result was a nice stand on which the beloved cups of the whole family fit.
By the way
If you find a suitable branch, but there are not enough knots on it, do not get upset - they can "build up". From the sticks of a suitable diameter cut the right number of knots. Then in the base (branch), drill holes for them, grease the parts with PVA glue and put them into place.

Holder for instruments with own hands
To make knives, forks and spoons do not roll on the table, made of convenient and practical stand made of plexiglas.
Its height depends on the length of the blades of the knives. Two pieces of organic glass for stability bent at the base. He noted the bending place on the workpieces, then fixed the sheet between the two wooden slats with compressed clamps (it is possible in the vice), and he heated the building hair dryer at this point. After the plexiglass warmed up well, bent it at the right angle.
In the sheets, drilled two holes 67 mm and connected them with the help of pins and nuts. Connecting the workpieces, between them put on the pins washers, the thickness of which is slightly thicker than the blade of the knife.

Daughter with a secret
Using a retractable cutting board, you can easily get out of the garbage without taking it off from work. It is enough to drill a round hole in the board itself, and from the bottom in the drawer to install a garbage container. By the way, from the drilled round billet it's easy to make a lid for a hole, screwing to it in the middle a wine stopper on the screw.

I PROPOSE QUICKLY AND WITHOUT COSTS TO BUY NEW KITCHEN COUPLES.
It took: the old coat bright scraps needle thread scissors.
I drew a sketch of the fish on paper. I cut out a stencil, according to which I cut out 2 pieces for each tack from the coat fabric. On the front side, a fish-like seam embroidered a fish's head, mouth and tail. To make scales for each fish, I cut 5 rectangles 2 × 2 cm, and 10 - 3 × 4 cm. I rounded the corners on one side of each element. Sweep them to the base, starting with the head. When the pattern took shape, I sewed each of the scales along the contour manually. Fold the top and bottom of the tack inside out. I sewed along the contour.
Fish-potholders withstand high temperatures and do not require frequent washing.
By the way
Because the coat is not! The edges of the product do not require additional processing.

NOW THE CHOICE OF BEAUTIFUL CASES FOR LOOSE FOOD IN SHOPS IS HUGE, BUT I WANTED TO CREATE ITS SOMETHING, UNEXPECTABLE-GLASS BANKS ARE UNDER COFFEE.
I cleaned the containers of paper labels, degreased alcohol. On one of the sides painted windows and sealed them with paint tape. I covered the containers and covers with white acrylic paint. Over pasted motifs of napkins by the method of de-blending. She removed the tape from the windows. To avoid seeing the boundaries of the tissue motifs, toned them with a spray using a sponge. The windows along the edges were painted with acrylic contours.
Now all my cereals in beautiful jars, and through the window you can see at once where everything lies.

Bottle in the ... tower
For bottles with vegetable oil, I made the original packing-case. If you need to get a container - I open the lid for the "spire".
A cardboard tube of a suitable diameter was cut off by the height of the bottle hangers. Whole plugs of champagne cut into small rectangles (see photo) They glued them with a thermo-pistol pipe, imitating a stone masonry. Cut out the apertures of the windows and pasted in them "glass" made of plastic. Attached the carved cork arches and window sills. The door was made of large matches (on glue), painted with stain, glued. Thick paper in several layers turned into a cone for the roof. The edges of her fixed glue Titan. Sealed the roof with leather, wrapping the allowances inside the workpiece. 8 as a spire on the roof stuck a match, put a cork on it. A convenient case was obtained.
