With this charming cup garden you conjure up a great gift for Mother's Day, for example. But also for other occasions you give pleasure with this garden in mini format. You need sand or gravel and earth, as well as a few seed grains, wire, buttons, colorful paper and a cord. When decorating your imagination there are no limits. Collect to your heart's content small natural treasures such as snail houses or stones, moss and bark.
First you find a matching vessel. It is suitable for a cup, an empty honey glass or also a flower pot.
Next, get ready for the sand and spoon.
Now its sand or gravel fills up to about half in the vessel.
Then you get the earth and a tablespoon ready.
Then fill with a tablespoon of soil.
That's what your stuffed vessel looks like now.
Next, take the colorful sheet of paper.
Now you cut off a 1cm wide strip on the short side of the leaf.
You cut this strip into 8 pieces of the same size. Fold the strip of paper again and again in the middle.
Now fold each piece of paper once in the middle. So you get 8 folded little pennants.
Next you cut a small triangle from each folded piece. Always start at the corner.
Tip: You can also draw the two lines with pencil. Cut from the corner to the middle.
Now you stick the inside of the pennant with glue.
Then you attach the pennants one after the other to the cord.
Next, attach the pennant chain to two branches or to the shishlik skewers.
To do this, you make a loop through which you push the branches or shishliks.
In the end, you tighten the loops.
Then you place your pennant chain in the earth of your cup.
Now you get your seeds ready.
The seeds are scattered on the earth and covered with soil, then you pour them with a little water.
Tip: Go out into nature and collect natural treasures. Snail houses, small stones, moss or bark are suitable.
Maybe you also like to make a flag. For this you fold a paper half and then cut a triangle out of it.
Then you decorate the flag with a colorful ribbon and a button.
To do this, rub the tape with glue.
Then you stick the open ends on the inside of the flag and the tape on the front.
Then you put the button on her.
At the end, you glue the inside sides of the flag and attach the paper to a small branch.
Now put a ribbon around the cup of your cup garden.
Then tie this to the loop.
And who likes to tie a small note with the name of the recipient or send a message with it.
Have fun doing crafts and giving away!
