On the Internet there are a lot of information about how to knead salt dough, how to sculpt out of it, but at the same time, few of the masters are divided by various small secrets to work with this interesting material. Today you will learn 11 secrets of salty duties for beginners who will help you create more beautiful work and make it easier to work with it.

Channel: Draw along with children

Salted dutch recipe for crafts:

• 1 cup flour
• ½ glass of water (maybe more - depends on the amount of gluten in flour)
• ½ cup of salt
• vegetable oil

Pour flour into a bowl, salt, pour water and knead the dough. If suddenly it turns out that the water is too much, then add a little flour. There should be a dough similar to plasticine.

1. The first secret is the secret of the test from which the figures come out that do not crack when drying.

A very frequent problem of the products from the salt dough is that when drying, they begin to crack. What to do to not happen? In order for the dough did not stop and cracks, you need to add some vegetable oil into it. The above proportions are enough ½ teaspoon.

2. In order for the finished face of the salt dough to be a stronger unbreakable and awkward, it is necessary to add when mixing in salty dough on the above proportions 2 tablespoons of the wallpaper glue or PVA glue. Then, after drying, the figure will become more durable and it will be impossible to break it

3. If you feel that it is too dry, and when it is flushed with dry edges, you wet my finger in the water and lubricate the dough in a wet finger in the place of fault. After that, knead the dough. If necessary - repeat.

4. The dough needs to be elevated to such an extent so that it is not rough to the touch. Mix the salt dough is needed for a very long time. It is better to mix small portions so that the piece was placed in hand. After you felt that the dough was smooth, remove it into the cellophane and in the refrigerator.

5. If you first sculpt from the usual test and paint it after drying with gouache, then the painted work must be covered with varnish. The surface lacquer protects the finished work from the exposure of moisture, and gives an additional comprehensive paint.

Since children can not work with varnish, then for children it is better to pre-paint the dough and for staining to use food dyes. To paint the dough, you need to splash a piece, pour a little dry food dye to the middle, to dip a finger into the water and wet the dye. Collect flattened dough in a pocket with a dye inside and start kneading it and smear it. The dough with the dye smelled faster, it is softer and more elastic than usual.

6. If you paint the ready-made product with a gouache, then so that it does not pack in the future hand, you need to add a little glue in the paint.

7. If you start sculpting from the test and, rolling the reservoir, you will see cracks on it, you need to hunt your finger with water and smeared these cracks. The surface of the future product should be perfectly smooth. The appearance of cracks usually means that the dough is badly smelted.

If the crack appeared on the finished figure, then drip into a fracture of water so that it flies inside and gently temper up to smoothness. Water will help stick the crack.

8. Roll the dough you need a thickness of no less than 3 mm.

9. If you make flat figures, then when the work is ready, you turn on the oven to the most minimal heating and without closing the oven, dry up to complete drying. Otherwise, they will behave, they swell and lose the form. Very often you can hear advice that you can dry work on the battery. However, on the battery the dough dries very long. It can dry from above, but inside it will be raw and can continue to break or deform.

10. After cutting the flat figure edge, uneven and rough. Loose your finger into the water and lay the edges before smoothness. Then the figure itself will be worthy of what it will be possible to give and not shy.

11. When cutting out figures from the test you can not "pull" the knife: the dough can be started to reach it. Cut needs to be clarifying, pushing the dough around the perimeter of the figure.

In the video master class, you can also see how to make a Christmas craft from a salt dough - an angel action figure for decorating packaging with gifts.

decorate fashionable interiors of apartments and shops, handmade jewelry complements collections of fashionable designers, gifts, Hand-Made toys are very popular among adults and young people.

I want to tell about

salted Test products,

who are currently occupying their niche among handmade products

Modeling from salt dough gives a greater will of fantasy, and the products of it, sometimes, shake with their beauty and grace

This type of creativity gives pleasure and joy, like any other

Many people think: Well, think, some salty dough - all this is crafts (implying the childhood of the product).

But, only those who do not know that

since ancient times, since ancient times, they were sculpted from a salt dough, not only in Russia, but also in all European countries, it was customary to give exactly the wreaths, figures of dolls or other charms.

Why exactly from the test?

Very easy - salt dough is surprisingly energy intake material.

Anyone who at least once screamed from the salt dough of the figure or received such as a gift, felt this positive impact on himself.

Salted dough, as well as clay have amazing energy, but if the clay she caresses the whole negative, the salt dough on the contrary gives positive energy - good and warm with this material is very pleasant to work.

If you liked the idea of \u200b\u200binteresting creativity, which you can create together with your child, you will certainly remember and try in practice the following recipe:

Saltic dough recipe

1 cup flour
1 glass of salt
1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
1/2 cup of water
The process of making a salt dough is incredibly simple. We embarrass in a deep bowl (or any other comfortable capacity) a glass of salt and pour a half cup of hot water.
Next, we stir the salt with water and fall asleep the glass of flour. We have a salty dough until homogeneous mass. For convenience, you can use a mixer.

In the salty dough, you need to add one or two spoons of vegetable oil, dry wall melting or spoonful of hand cream.

Energetically mix everything in a bowl with hands, if the dough is too sticking to the hands, add a bit of flour mixed with salt.

Put the resulting mass of the salt dough into a plastic bag and place in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. After that, from the salt dough can be sculpted. If, after classes, you still will remain the dough, then keep it in the refrigerator in a polyethylene package.

The dough is ready, now you can make all sorts of figures from it. Finished crafts lay out on a baking sheet and put in a cold oven, where we withstand on a small fire (80%) about an hour or a little more if the figures did not have time to finally harden. After drying, the figures can be painted and covered with varnish.

Salted Test Tips:

1. Keep the tank with a salt test closed, because left in the open, in air, the salt dough dries very quickly.
2. So that the dough does not stick to the hands, you need to add some flour into it.
3. So that the dough does not crumble, you need to pour into it some water.
4. Unused dough must be stored in the refrigerator - there it will remain one or two days.
5. To give the test of a pleasant smell and color, you can add spices, for example, cumin, pepper, curry, nutmeg, cinnamon, etc.
6. In order to check whether the figures sound well - knock on them with your finger. If the sound is ringing - dry dough, and if deaf is not yet.
7. After the oven, the dough figures can be painted with a gouache, and then cover with varnish.
8. If there were cracks after drying on the figure, divert a few PVA glue, mix well and apply this mass on the crack, rubbing it.

Methods painting salted dough

Torture salted dough can be edible, watercolor or gouache. You can also paint when cooking a test, introducing the dye when the kneading, and the finished product itself - on the surface.

Excellent chocolate color is obtained when adding cocoa. You can experiment with other natural dyes - soot, beet juice, carrots, ocra, etc. It is possible to smooth the product from salt dough into the oven for natural color.

When tinted, it should be borne in mind that, after drying, the color will become less saturated, but if you cover the craft of lacquer - will again become brighter. What varnish can be used? Acrylic and artistic is very good. It is possible to apply the usual construction on a water basis for breathable surfaces. For parquet or wood.

Features and methods for making salted dough:

There are several things that cannot be done with the salt dough. For example, a pancake flour (or flour with any other with additives cannot be added to the salt dough with additives), since drying figures will rise like a good dough for pies and crack.

Also, it is not possible to add salt iodized large intersions not soluble, and the dough is not uniform - into the grain. Similarly, a stone salt is not added without prior dissolution.

About water. So, in the test it is best to use very cold water; You must add 50 ml parts after each addition to mix (due to the fact that for different flour, there may be different amounts of water).

The salt is first mixed with flour, and only then water is poured into the finished mass.

Salted dough is stored in a polyethylene pack or a tightly closing container. Salted dough from the plastic bag is better to get small pieces, as the peak lumps are quickly covered with a crust and with rolling or modeling these dry crusts spoil the appearance.

And one more thing if the figures are fat (more than 7 mm), then after the first stage, you need to remove the test of the test on the reverse side

The dough can get too soft. Then do as follows: Mix on the bottom of the bowl of a tablespoon of flour with a tablespoon of salt. Press the test to this mixture, and then doubt it. Apply so until the dough becomes more dense.

Sculpt or cut figures can be right on the contrary. The baking sheet should be predetermined by water, in which case bubbles are not formed between the product and the surface, the surface of the product will be smooth and stable.

All that falls off - just wonderful and the main thing is not noticeably glued with PVA glue.

Pumping or crackling crafts from salt dough occurs in three cases:

1. If the flour is incorrectly selected. For greater strength, you can add to the dough of rye flour (the color will be warmer and crackle should not be) (for example, a glass of the usual + glass of rye, 1 to 1), 50 gr. Starch - also give the test elasticity and do not crack. You can also add PVA glue, because it also gives plasticity and does not allow to climb the test.
2. If drying is incorrectly performed (see the next section)

If the crackling occurred after painting, this means that the product is not fully dried (the product continues to dry and the air should be used somewhere) Therefore, the surface of the paint or varnish is cracking. Do not rush to paint or cover the product with a varnish, so that then do not regret and not redo.

Frequently asked question: How to dry salt dough?

It is best to dry in the air in vivo, but it is long (full drying can take a week and more - especially if the humidity is high with drying - since the salt pulls moisture), so you can dry in the oven, observing several rules.

1. The oven must be at the minimum temperature.
2. Ok if drying goes with a dutched oven lid
3. It is impossible to put products in a hot oven immediately, the heating should occur gradually. Just like pulling out the product out of the oven, it is better if it cools gradually instead of an oven
4. Ideally produce drying in several stages: the hour crashed on the one hand, turned the craft, dries off the inside. I still do breaks between dryers, the hour dries in the oven - the day dries itself - then again an hour and a half in the oven on the reverse side.

Drying time products made of salt dough depends on the thickness of the product itself. As well as from the applied manufacturer's recipe. So, the dough with the content of oil, cream, etc. It dries a lot longer dough without oil-containing additives.

In order to avoid cracking, it is possible to dry in three - four stages, in the oven at the very minimum and necessarily with an open lid at about an hour and a half, then a break of an hour for two - three, or for the whole night, the craft is dry, and then again Turn on the oven to a minimum with an open lid.

With natural and oven drying, the craft must be rotated at each stage of drying. The hour dries the front side, resting, the stage in the stage turned over and dries up the opposite side.

Thus, we lit the main recipes and methods of modeling salted dough.

Successful creativity!

The story of the modeling of salt dough has many centuries. In ancient Egypt, it was from this material that the figures of numerous deities, in Germany and Scandinavia, were considered to be considered that the "bread" charm is able to protect the owners of the house.

The advantage of this method is the absolute safety during drying. The child of any age can participate in this process on its own. The disadvantage can be called, the relative duration of the procedure. Drying can take several days.

You can speed up the process using the oven for these purposes. The baking sheet covers dry paper for baking, and on top of the shapes.

The wizards use a different temperature range, however, for beginner needlewomen will be enough to heat the oven to + 100 ° C. In the process of baking, it is important to trace so that our crafts are not burnt.

Coloring ready-made figures

This is a very exciting occupation. We will give you some tips, how to avoid mistakes:

• for deactivation of the "bread" figures, any water-soluble paint is suitable, from watercolor to acrylic;
• the color falls on the test surface unevenly, so cover the product is pre-white or corruptous;
• each new color must be applied separately, then it is necessary to wait for a complete drying, the following color can be applied only after that.

Some tricks that experienced masters share with you will help you make crafts from dough any complexity:

In some cases, you can prepare a little dough, more liquid consistency. With it, you can make a thin coating of the main product details. For example, "smear" sandwich or pour the cake with icing.

In the process of modeling, specify the size of the product so that it matches your idea.

Connect individual details of your craft simply. Use the wet tassel and just "glue" one part to the other.

Photo crafts from dough

In contact with

Testoplast professionals over the years of work reaches such heights that their products can be safely put in one row with plaster or clay statuette, panels and small sculptures.

The material is also unique with the fact that even a disinterested two-year-old child can start doing the smearing. Divisions from the test only at first glance seem funny pampering or children's occupation. If there is no interest in them with age, you can learn how to create serious large-scale work that will be decorated at home or even museum exhibitions not one dozen years.

Uniqueness of the material

Before proceeding to the practical aspect of testoplastic, it should be explained, the fact that this natural material is so unique that it has managed to attract attention and the interest of dozens of beginners and experienced leps.

The uniqueness of salt test (namely, this species is used) consists of several positions:

1. Efficiency. If you take one kilogram of finished dough and as much in volume not the most expensive plasticine, the first will be cheaper at times.
2. Availability. High-quality plasticine or various sets for children's creativity not only roads, but not always available in stores. And water, salt, flour will always be in any family or in the nearest trading tent.
3. Ecology. Modern materials for modeling contain a huge amount of substances that, to put it mildly, are not entirely useful not only for children, but also for adults. And the natural and safety of the home test is unconditional one hundred percent. Therefore, parents can absolutely not worry, looking at the disparants of the grip and face of the kids.
4. Durability. The finished figures and crafts, if they are properly dried, will serve not one dozen years. But the plasticine can float, burn out and just fall apart.
5. Aesthetic appeal. Crafts from salt dough, masterfully performed in different techniques, painted and smoked, look amazing, effectively, bright and very stylish.
6. A variety of recipes, technician modeling. The dough can be prepared in different ways, as well as make a craft. It can be a toy, statuette, sculpture, panel, painting, bouquet or even a vase with flowers. And if you use an additional decor (beads, ribbons, fur and so on), it will be a rather complex composition related to the biocheramic class.

Crafts from salt dough, masterfully made in different techniques, painted and smoked, look amazing, effectively, bright and very stylish

Based on all the above, it becomes clear why the popularity of the dough is only growing. And if you are interested in testoplasty, we will tell how to prepare the original salty mass.

Preparation of dough

Than pliable and plastic will be the initial mass, the easier it will be easier to work with it, the more detailed the figure is working. And compliance is the right kneading and clear observance of proportions. The methods of preparation of edible "plasticine" are quite a lot, and every hostess will certainly choose for itself optimal. We give here the one that is considered the most popular.

What makes sure and plastic will be the starting mass, the easier it will be easier to work with it, the more detailed the figure is being worked out.

If you need salt dough for modeling crafts, the recipe will be as follows: you need to take the wheat flour pole (necessarily higher grade), 200 ml of ice-neped water, 200 g of extras variety salts.

To knead the dough thoroughly, until a homogeneous state without lumps and breaks. It was then that finished products will keep their own kind and integrity for a very long time, and it will be very simple to sculpt. Such a material is obedient and will quickly embody any creative thought of a child or an adult. In addition, he ... edible.

Attention! If the young Creator wants to send to the mouth of a ready-made bear, a bunny or strawberry, the parent will only stay smiling: there will be no harm from it.

Proper drying and staining

If the ingredients were recovered with Swiss accuracy, the dough was succeeded, and the process of creating the work of art was completed, this does not mean that it would be possible to preserve it for many years. For the finished work, you need to quickly dry or, as some say, drove. Immediately alleged: microwave ovens, sunny window sills, hot batteries, open balconies and superycakes are not suitable for this! If you leave the figure just on the table, suppose, for a day, it will be able to dry only on ... a millimeter, which means that soon it is deformed and fall apart.

The test is needed thermal processing (by the way, as well as firing clay), and with rigid observance of temperature and duration of baking

The test is needed thermal processing (by the way, as well as firing clay), and with rigid observance of temperature and duration of baking. However, the size of the subject is also important: if it is a big figure, you will have to dry longer, and the little dried slightly faster.

Finished masterpieces should be placed in the oven in the baking form, which you want to cover the foil. At a minimum temperature of 75ºС, dry the product is needed an hour, at 10 ° C - half an hour, at 120 and 150 - 30 minutes. In the continuation of this time, the figures must be periodically rotated, shifted on one side to another so that the baying is uniform.

Tip! If the edible figurine made in your own hands, there is a decor from rhinestones, beads, beads, should not be set to temperatures above 120ºС.

The dried object should cool, and only then it can be painted. To take it better than gouache or acrylic. The choice of colors and painting equipment remains behind the author. You can go to another way: to paint the dough itself when they knead, using factory food dyes for this.

Colored masterpieces must be coated with colorless varnish, preferably two layers. Any nail composition is suitable. And then the work will not survive and will not fuss very, very long.

Naturally, two-, three years of a priori will not be able to create something big and complex. Therefore, it is necessary to start with the elementary, understandable characters and items.

For children, a tactile contact is very important, they always want to touch everything and swell

For children, a tactile contact is very important, they always want to touch everything and swell. Therefore, at the first stage, let the baby simply hold, it will break the mass in the handles.

• funny caterpillars, snails, bows, figures, vegetables will be released from the rolling pin or arms of "sausages";
• from different balls, you can, sinks, kolobkov, little men, especially if adding outsider decor;
• from flour cubes, you can fold the wall, pyramid, house, and you can write alphabet letters on them and fold the name of the child, the simplest words;

Recompolates are enough patience and skills to perform small sculptures, animal figures, whole floral vases or fruit baskets. Fans of cartoons or superhero films can easily cut a favorite hero or a whole scene from the film. Many can be spent on the work not one day and fulfill their own entire creative process from creating a sketch before its incarnation.

There are quite a lot of recipes for modeling salted test. Depending on the scale of the crafts, salt, flour and water are mixed in various proportions, and even additional ingredients are added to the dough, among other things: glycerin, glue, vegetable oil, starch and even hand cream. For beginner masters, the dough is recommended to do according to the classic recipe. For this, flour and salt are mixed in the same proportions with gradual addition of cold water. For example, a 200 g of salts and 200 g of flour will need 125 g of water.

Tip for beginners!

1. The flour must be ordinary rye or wheat without adding bundles and other components.
2. The salt is best to take fine-grained and in no case iodined. For better dissolution of salt, some needlewomen before mixing it with flour, add a bit of water into it.
3. In order for the dough to be homogeneous, it is recommended to use a mixer.
4. To please children already in the process of modeling and give the product color, you can add food dyes in the dough.
5. For better adhesion of individual parts, the crafts between them are watched their tassel.
6. Dry the product is best in the oven preheated to 50-60 degrees. Depending on the size of the craft, this procedure may take about 1 hour or more.

Master class on making mucosolek

In addition to flour, water and salts for a master class, the following devices will need:

• plank for modeling;
• small rolling;
• little knife;
• toothpick or rod from ballpoint handles for small holes and patterns;
• water capacity;
• tassel and paint;
• lacques for coating.

Depending on which figures you will do, you may need molds for cookies, beads, buttons, leaflets of different shapes for creating writing.

1. From the finished salted test, roll the layer with a thickness in half a hundred.
2. With the help of molds for cookies, cut the desired number of figures. Toothpick or rod from the handle, make a hole in the figures in order to turn loops from ribbons in them. Decorate crafts using beads, buttonholes or trees leaves as an outtreet.
3. Heat the oven, check the bottom of a trash or special paper for baking.
4. Lay out the figures on the baking sheet and bake in the oven until the dough hardens.
5. Place the flour on a flat surface and color paints at your discretion.
6. To make finished glitter products, cover them with varnish.

Mukosolki can be performed using a small knife, cutting out all sorts of elements. For example, you can make a house-suspension for children on a Christmas tree or a fun cat with rope legs. From a salty pancake, a pretty owl can turn out if you wrap the three edges and cut eyes with a spout.

Materials and devices needed to create such a funny lamb need the same as in the previous master class.

1. Dough knead the classic recipe and check the hour at 2 to the refrigerator.
2. Crack out 4 small balls for future lamb legs.
3. To get a torso, roll the foil sheet into a lumber and close it with a salt dough pancake. Favorite the ball to put on the legs.
4. Make a lamb, horns, ears and eyes from the dough. With the help of small balls from the dough form the wool toys.
5. Dry the lamb from the salt dough in the oven 2.5-3 hours, and then let it cool for 30-40 minutes.
6. Color and check the toy.

Modeling volumetric panels and paintings from salt dough

As a rule, salty dough is used for paintings by the following recipe: one glass of salt and flour, 1 tbsp. water. The beginners are best used in the picture a small amount of salty figures, decorating the rest of the space with decorative materials. Salted parts are best done on the foil so that their reverse surface is perfectly smooth and easily glued on the pattern field.

Possible problems of beginners in the manufacture of salty dough crafts

1. After staining, the product was cracked.
2. Clean the crawl emery paper, dry out in the fresh air and turn again.
3. DIY crashed because of the big thickness.
4. Remove the back of the dough from the back. If the figure is large, when drying it is necessary to periodically turn over.
5. If the detail broke out from the toy, glue it with a pva glue or re-adjust the appropriate decoration.
