Irons as Life Style

13 November, 2012 - 00:00

Irons are like sea ships. And you know that ships do not like to stay in one place for long. Old irons usually do not have hostesses, and there is no one to care for them and trim their sails. They lie forgotten in dusty closets or somewhere upstairs.

But if you decide to give your old iron a second birth, the question has been solved in favor of the iron. In order to reanimate it arm yourself with glue gun and decorative colored ribbons. You can also add lotus, watermelon seeds, cypress leaves, or anything to your taste.

To decorate old irons they usually use folk-art style, because it underlines the advantage of the old before new. So, weigh anchor! Let’s take some leaves from herbarium, khaki color lotus leaves, and cut them into some graphical forms. Use these forms to decorate the sides of your iron ship. You can make a deck fence using watermelon seeds. In the lower part make arches to decorate holes. On the back a few grass leaves will be enough for graphics.

And, finally, to add mobility to our ship, glue lotus stems to its back with stems stretched out. Now, full speed ahead! Like they say, deep water for a great ship.
