The original idea and the embodiment will make you think about how the cup soars in the air? The finished flying cup( the master class of various variants of manufacturing and design is presented in the article) will bring only positive emotions to both the donor and the gifted.

Flower topiary

The topiary is a small decorative item made from improvised materials: flowers, pebbles, shells, etc. The floating decorative cup will be appropriate to look in the dining room or in the kitchen. In this lesson we will learn how to make our own hands with the Topiary Flying Cup. We will need such materials and tools:

• cup and saucer;
• wire;
• hot melt;
• small artificial flowers;
• painting tape;
• pliers;
• scissors.

1. Prepare a cup and saucer: degrease them and wipe dry.

2. Bend the pliers thick wire, creating a Z-shape.

3. Align the bottom and top of the wire so that it fits snugly against the saucer and against the wall of the cup.

4. Using a glue gun, we glue the wire first to the saucer. We do not regret consumables: the glue must completely close the wire. Hold the wire in the desired position until the glue cools.

5. Similarly, we glue the wire to the sides of the cup. Be sure to wait for the full hardening of the glue: the wire should not lag behind the walls.

6. We glue the wire with paint tape. We did this not immediately, but only after we were sure that the flowers do not stick to the wire.

7. To the bottom in an arbitrary order we glue artificial leaves.

8. The largest flowers are glued to the bottom of the cup and to the saucer.

9. From the smaller colors and leaves, create a "flow", gluing both of them in an arbitrary order.

So this is a decorative cup with flowers.

Using kandzashi

You can also use flowers made in Kansas technique to design a floating cup. It turns out very original.

Materials:

• fine floral felt;
• sponge;
• aluminum fork;
• coffee or tea pair;
• lighter or soldering iron;
• forceps for Kanzas;
• stamens and small beads;
• beads, decorative butterfly;
• colored ribbons 5 cm wide;
• glue gun.

1. From thin felt or, if not, then from the tape, cut out the leaves.

2. Cut the ribbon for the flower. One will need 5 pieces. We collect a sharp petal, but do not rush to solder. On the line we conduct a soldering iron or a lighter.

3. It turned out such a petal. We make the necessary quantity from multi-colored tapes.

4. We collect the middle of flowers from beads with stamens.

5. We glue the fork with hot glue, connecting it with a coffee cup and a saucer.

6. After 10 minutes, once again spread with glue.

7. We use any heavy object as cargo. We were stuck in old door hinges.

8. We mask everything with a sponge. Next, we paste the felt that was used for the leaves, or tape.

9. We collect flowers, gluing a petal behind the petal to the stamen.

10. We decorate the cup. For starters, we cover the cup and saucer with leaves, and then gradually cover the entire surface of the saucer, cups and forks with tissue colors.

It turns out that this is a flying cup.
