Making Bonsai with a burning candle

Here I want to present my bonsai that I have turned out! Its creation was inspired by the work of masters Whitney  , thank her very much! I would like to tell you how I created this Bonsai, and in particular, the very crown …)))

Bonsaychik - Candlestick

To create a crown, we need:

  • scissors,
  • wire (thin),
  • Glue (I have this latex),  
  • Thread the floss.

Take the wire, cut 3 pieces of about 15 cm, can be a little less, and is twisted twice each

Next, we take our skin, cut off a piece of 15 cm, and further each time another half 3 times to become a thread length of 2 cm

Next, we take our wire, glue, some threads of our shorties, (here it is possible to look at pyshnote, that much time for a lot of threads on one wire is difficult to paste, so take mediocre), and begin to stick to the tip of the wire, as it gradually twisting your fingers on the edge, it turns out that’s a beam of:

We make two more beam, and then all three twisted together:

These branches can unite in 2 – 3, whichever pomp want to achieve (the excess, if sticks, scissors shave, ):

Above I have daubed with plaster, making Bonsai chik on the trunk, and then to give greater relief decided to try to block the paste:

It has turned out like this:

Once dry, paint the trunk, we reveal the top varnish, and do the foundation. Stones, epoxy glue ….. (I have already mentioned in the master class of this process is described in detail):
