Weaving from newspapers: making billets and basic weaving schemes + video lessons for beginners
Weaving with unnecessary paper, which is more often the newspapers and magazines that have accumulated over time, you can create incredible things.

How to prepare the tubing
1. The newspaper sheet is to be placed on strips with a width of 5 to 10 cm. Cut them with a stationery knife or scissors.

3. Once all the tubes are ready, proceed to their coloring. It is convenient to do on an oilcloth with a brush. After staining, the convolutions are allowed to dry well.
4. To keep the product durable and long-lasting, do not save on glue, paint and varnish.
Some color tips for
a) The stain on alcohol does not allow to soak convolutions. It gives the brown color to the workpieces. The stain can be liquid and powdery. The latter is diluted with water before use. When weaving from newspapers the stain does not completely hide its specific color, in contrast to the coloring of tubes made from plain paper. Therefore, the finished model will have to be painted again. To color turned out more bright, color several times. B) Acrylic paint creates a polishing effect. It dries about half an hour. It is diluted with water to the desired consistency. Such a paint is better to cover the finished works, as it deprives the vine of elasticity.
c) Watercolor looks a little dull. D) Gouache is easy to find and it can create a wide variety of shades. Before use, it is diluted with water.
e) Some use food colors, hair dyes, cars, even greenery and iodine.
f) Finished works are covered with several layers of varnish, which makes them more durable. The appearance of such products are not at all like paper, but on wicker from real vines. G) Paint with a sponge or brush. Some masters paint mixed with varnish and this mixture covers the finished product.
h) It is undesirable to paint with a varnish of a tube, this considerably complicates the process of weaving.
i) Dye better in two coats with white paint, and then the final color.

Basic types of weaving
1. Layered weaving. There are an odd number of guide tubes, and two workers. The work goes clockwise. One vine passes in front of the counter, the other behind. On the finished product it looks like this.
2. Ordinary weaving. It begins with a simple weaving from the first rack, until the working tube is finished. The second package is placed under the first and begin a simple weaving from the 2nd rack. The third package - from the 3rd guide - and so to the end of the series.
3. Square. One working package passes through the 2 guides, the second - also, but on the other hand. This is done until the height of the rows becomes equal to the distance between the posts, that is, a square is obtained.
4. Rope. It is based on the interweaving of bundles with racks and with each other.
5. Spiral. The technique of the spiral is to maintain the angle.
6. Pigtail. It can be edge and waybill. The first is made from racks that weave counterclockwise, pulling the ends of the bundles inward and outward. For the second, several additional convolutions are used, which are intertwined with the edge.
7. Openwork technology includes several simple and complex ways, it has the form of lace, different figures.
