Applying a stained glass pattern
Important reminder: Before starting work, do not smear your hands with cream, wash them well with soap so that fingerprints do not leave marks on the glass or ceramics, depending on what product you are going to paint.
Wipe off any dust if there is any. Degrease the surface of the teapot - wipe with alcohol.
First, the outlines of the image are applied to the teapot. Try not to lean the tip of the tube against the glass itself, but keep it at a distance of several millimeters; your hands should not shake, then the black “worm” will lie exactly as it should.
I don’t always do this, sometimes it turns out unevenly, but I even like it, it turns out to be such artistic carelessness.
This requires skill - try it and judge for yourself how you do.
The white teapot was bought in a store. I wanted to buy a beautiful teapot as a gift, but, to my regret, the one I wanted was not there. I talked to the sellers and asked if they had a bright colored teapot.
There were white or bright, but monochromatic, different sizes, but everything was wrong. Then one of the sellers (there were already two walking around me, as a potential buyer!), seeing that I most likely wouldn’t buy anything, joked: “Buy a white one and have it painted!”, and disappeared from sight.
He had no idea that I would take his words literally! Although, I must admit, this idea came to my mind a long time ago, I did not voice it for the simple reason that they (German sellers) would have taken it as nothing more than a joke.
I think that in Russia I would not have left without a kettle, there are different tastes and preferences designed for the Russian mentality, but when I left for Germany, I did not change my tastes, that’s the whole problem. But let's not get distracted. The shape of the white teapot seemed ideal to me, and the color was perfect for applying a stained glass outline design.
When the black (or other color) outlines of the design are dry, start working with a brush. Work carefully, first applying one color throughout the image where it is needed, then another. Sometimes rest, have a snack, drink some tea, meanwhile the drawing will dry out and you won’t have to worry that it will smear accidentally when you take the teapot (or whatever you have made of glass, for example) in your hands.
When your stained glass painting is completed and the surface of the teapot (or glass object) has finally dried (read on the jars of your paints how long it takes to dry), you can proceed to the last stage - we will subject our drawing to heat treatment.
First, put everything in a cold oven and turn it on (check the temperature and duration on the jars). After the time has passed, turn off the oven and... don't touch anything yet! Go about your business - during this time the oven will cool down, as will the painted items. Only then can you get it. That's it, from now on your stained glass pattern is in no danger, you can wash it by hand or in the dishwasher - whichever is convenient for you!
You can paint white cups, a sugar bowl, and a milk jug with the same pattern as the teapot - then you get a whole set.

While at the exhibition, where the work of various masters was presented, I found very interesting works in the enamel technique. Such simple in execution, but at the same time unusual patterns are perfect for glass and ceramic products, be it a bowl, dish or flat panel. Among other things, these motifs can be successfully used to create an applique.
Here you will find ideas for motifs and subjects for drawing using stained glass technique. Mostly the pictures show round glass vases or candlesticks - I photographed this during the holidays at the Christmas market in my city where I live. This is not glass painting, but the photos give an idea of the variety of possible motifs for stained glass painting.
This is a small flat picture framed on square glass, painted with stained glass contours and do-it-yourself paints. These paints can be used to paint any objects made of glass and ceramics; to fix the applied design, the object is placed in the oven for a while.
Ideas for the design and decoration of houses
Try to create a tea house with your own hands - a masterpiece of small architecture, arranging the buildings in a row, making them different in height and width. Decorate the lower parts with high arches, cut out the windows in the shape of hearts - you will get a wonderful gift for your loved one. Play with styles, depicting a Gothic castle, a palace with columns or a fairy-tale house for gnomes. There can be two or even three floors, the façade can be decorated with balconies, the windows can be decorated with patterned shutters or brickwork around the perimeter.
For external design, use acrylic color painting, according to selected templates, or simply impromptu, as your hand suits you. Take traditional designs, blue and white “Gzhel” or “Zhostovo” flowers, oriental ornaments or Japanese hieroglyphs as a basis. In the latter case, first make sure that they are spelled correctly and correspond to the desired meaning in order to avoid embarrassment. You can stick beads and pieces of glass on the walls and get a real stained glass panel, or use grains, beads, woolen threads, felt, even colored sand for prefabricated applications. Almost all materials are perfectly fixed with PVA glue and varnish on top, the technology is simple, go ahead and create the most beautiful and original tea houses with your own hands.

How to make a teapot
Usually, the bags come in a standard size. Let's take one as a sample template. And we will make pockets for the bags based on its size.
Teapot cover. The gap between pages is 2 cm.
In order for the folds to be even, before bending, draw along the line either with a knitting needle or with the blunt end of scissors.
In order for the cover to be denser and aesthetically white on both sides, we will glue the inside with cardboard.
The first pair of pockets unfolded. A – pocket height, B – pocket width.
We glue the pockets together as follows:
Glue the first pair of pockets.
We make the second pair of pockets in the same way. The only difference is that the gap between the pockets is not 2, but 1 cm.
We cut out the outer corners of the pockets with a figured hole punch.
To decorate the cover and pockets we need two identical cards.
Let's cut out the template, it is slightly smaller in size than the cover.
Using the template, tracing it, we cut out identical fragments from the postcards.
We cut them along the edges with curly scissors.
Glue to the outside of the cover using a glue stick.
We also paste a fragment cut from a postcard onto the crust.
From the leftover postcards, we cut out rectangular and square fragments with which we will decorate the inside of the cover. If we intend to make an inscription, then for it we also cut out from whatman paper, not necessarily a rectangular fragment, but also a triangular one.
To make it convenient to remove the bags from the pockets without denting the pockets, we will make triangular cuts. To make them the same, we will use a template.
Our teapot will be tied with a ribbon. For this, use a regular hole punch to make one hole in the cover from the edge in the middle.
If desired, you can write inscriptions, sayings or aphorisms about tea and tea drinking on the pockets. You can write them with a helium pen or print ready-made texts, adjusting them to the desired size.
We pass a ribbon through the holes and tie it into a bow.
Another design option for a teapot:
The holiday is approaching - March 8th. And for every acquaintance, relative or friend you can prepare such teapots. Original, practical and beautiful!
Don’t forget to make a teapot for yourself!

Pattern of a heating pad for a teapot
Here is the pattern of my heating pad (without seam allowances) for a life-size teapot, so to speak:
heating pad for a teapot life-size pattern
It should be noted that there is no universal heating pad pattern for all teapots. Because such dishes are sometimes produced in completely different sizes and bizarre shapes. Everyone has their own. The goal is for the cover to cover the entire brewer and fit on without tension, freely. At the same time, it should not be too large.
So if you have two teapots, one small and the other large, very different in size, then it is better to sew a heating pad for each. Since I have several, but almost the same, only the height is different, I sewed one for everyone; if necessary, I simply bend the bottom inward and the cover becomes shorter.
To sew the simplest one, we’ll make a pattern in the form of a rectangle, possibly with rounded edges to make it look nice. To estimate how much fabric will fit and how it will need to be cut, you need to take two measurements with a centimeter.
The best way to do this is described a couple of paragraphs below, and a formula for constructing a pattern taking into account seam allowances is also given.
If you want to get an interesting, original kitchen heating pad and are willing to spend extra time, then you can make a heating pad for the teapot in the shape of an animal - chickens, kitties, cows, lions, owls - the scope for imagination is great. You just need to make an additional head (sew to the body, i.e. to the heating pad itself at the top side) and a tail (sew into the seam). This shape is suitable for a cow, cat, dog.
Chicken warmer for a teapot made of fabric with a pattern. If you have time and desire, you can sew such a chicken (or cockerel) with your own hands on a sewing machine. It consists of many small double-sided parts, inside each, even very small element, there is an insulating lining, some parts are simply filled with synthetic wool or whatever you found at home - finely cut unnecessary shreds, insulation from an old jacket, etc. . (no one will ever look inside these fragments, everything will remain inside).
The size can also be reduced or increased depending on the size of the brewer.
If you want to make a slightly different shape of the body, you can, for example, increase the height of this pattern - make the top round or elongated towards the top - this is how you can make a chicken or a sitting cat, the head will be in the middle. If desired, you can sew on the paws or just mark them with a stitch.
Cow hot water bottle under Khokhloma
My first thought was to sew myself a heating pad in the shape of a cow, but then I got lazy, and in the end I decided to make this very simple version of a heating pad for a “medium” teapot.
Warmer for a teapot - a simple pattern made from Khokhloma fabric
First, let's measure our teapot with a flexible centimeter, one measure (X) - from the bottom vertically upward through the highest point (along with the lid!) to the bottom of the opposite side, the second (Y) - a horizontal measure of "diameter" (equator), along the most prominent parts – on one side there is a spout, on the other there is a handle.
Next, draw a rectangle with sides:
X/2 + 2 * 1.5 cm + 2 cm Y/2 + 2 * 1.5 cm + 2 cm.
I have two different kettles. I made the heating pad of such a size that it would be possible to use both teapots. One teapot is taller, so when I use a small one, I turn the bottom a few centimeters (about 5) inward.
On the rectangular pattern, round the two upper corners. You need two such parts.
Master class 4: painting on ceramics and glass with markers
Drawing with markers and felt-tip pens is familiar to all of us from childhood. With the help of special markers for painting dishes with your own hands, you can quickly and easily decorate a ceramic plate with inscriptions, as well as depict a graphic and very detailed picture. We look at examples of such decor in the following selection of photos.
To work you will need:
- Any degreaser and cotton pads;
- Felt pens of different colors and thickness of the rod.
Painting technique
- Before you start painting on dishes, do not forget to degrease the surface.
- The main rule is to try to draw the lines and contours of the drawing with small, frequent strokes - this way you are less likely to make a mistake.
- Also try to draw from the general to the specific.
- Preliminarily outline the contours of the drawing; if necessary, use a template or stencil.
- Most markers dry in 24 hours, do not require burning, and are dishwasher safe.
Friends, today we invite you to make a teapot for tea bags using the scrapbooking technique. Such a teapot can become an original gift card, because you can put tea bags and sweets in it.
Making a teapot is very simple. Now we will show it.
We will need:
- cardboard, thick box or scrapbooking paper,
- scissors,
- pencil,
- sandpaper;
- acrylic paint,
- materials for decoration,
- glue.
1. Print and cut out a template (there are two to choose from) of a paper teapot. Now let's look at two manufacturing options. First: we place the paper template on thick scrapbooking paper (it is colored and double-sided), trace it, and cut it out. The kettle parts are immediately ready for assembly. Don't forget that we need to make one piece for the bottom and two pieces for the sides.
Second option: cut out the teapot parts according to a paper template on ordinary thick cardboard or from a box (then you need to paint them with white acrylic paint after sanding), sand them using sandpaper.
2. If you are making a teapot according to the first option, all you have to do is glue the parts, tint the edges of the paper with acrylic paint to taste, and glue the decorative elements.
If you are making a teapot according to the second option, then now you need to cut out the parts from colored paper or thin paper for scrapbooking again using a template, glue them to cardboard blanks, dry them, sand the edges and tint them with acrylic paint to taste. Add decorative elements.
Tinting is not necessary, but it gives a special effect to the paper. You can decorate the edges in other ways, for example, by gluing ribbons.
3. A little trick: if you attach ribbons to the lid of the teapot and tie them, the tea bags will not get lost while the gift card is on its way to the recipient.
Happy creativity.

Materials
- Pasta of several types: 1) round, similar to flowers or wheels 2) shaped horns 3) spirals 4) shells 5) spaghetti
- Two balls;
- Glue (you can use a glue gun or instant glue, super glue);
- Dye.
Kettle
To do this, you first need to inflate the balloon and tie it tightly. Pay close attention to the size of the balloon you are inflating, because the size of the product itself in the future depends on this.
We choose round pasta in the form of a wheel, for example, we use, of course, raw and dry.
We glue each piece together with glue, completely covering the ball. We leave only the top part - we will close it, like in a real teapot, with a lid.
Let the glue dry so that the entire structure is tightly secured. When everything is ready and the glue has dried, take a needle and pierce the ball. We take out what is left of the ball from the teapot. It turns out this is the design.
For greater density, you can make a stand under the teapot from pasta, which you can glue to the bottom of the teapot.
Lid
Inflate the second balloon and create a shape more like a pear rather than a ball. This is necessary so that the lid is slightly elongated.
We look at the image and repeat the steps of gluing the parts. We try to arrange the pasta so that it forms a uniform shape.
Now we take two figured shells and glue them together, and then glue them to the top of the teapot lid. This will be our handle, by which you can grasp the decorative lid with your hands.
Cover the contour of the lid evenly with spiral vermicelli.
The result that should be obtained at this stage.
Left just a little bit! Patience and desire and everything is already working out! And it will be even more beautiful and delicate! Unusual gifts such as a pasta tea set will decorate any kitchen and bring a touch of coziness to your home.
This is the simplest thing. You need to glue the handle to the teapot and cup from figured shells.
saucer
Before creating the saucer, it is advisable to wrap the ceramic saucer in foil. This will at least help you avoid staining the saucer itself with glue, and will also create the original shape of the part.
As before, we glue all the pasta together in the shape of a saucer.
We frame the contours with shells. The openwork saucer for the cup is ready! Soon the entire DIY gift, made with great pleasure, will be ready.
Cup
The principle of creating a cup is similar to that described above. Therefore, watch and simply repeat.
Now you need to glue the finished and already dried handles to the teapot and cup. And move on to the next final stage of the tea set master class.
Tray
The tray is created as follows. You need to lay something on a flat surface, maybe newspaper, so as not to stain the table with glue.
You can draw clear outlines of the size of the tray on paper and lay out round pasta following the contours, connecting each piece with glue.
You can decorate the edges with shells. Let the glue dry. And then all that remains is to paint everything and the service is ready!
A very beautiful and delicate tea set made from pasta, made by hand as an original gift for a woman! This master class clearly showed how to make interesting decorative things for the home or as a gift for your mother, and will also be useful as an idea for creating similar products with your children or on your own.

One Sheet Model
An origami mug made of waterproof paper is suitable as a disposable tableware. This is a rather rare model; traditional cups are usually used, very simple and convenient. But if you want to show off your creativity, a mug is just what you need.
Finding waterproof paper is easy. For example, sheets for laser printing with special impregnation are suitable. You can apply a design on them that matches the theme of the party, not only with a printer, but also with an indelible marker. It is recommended to use the most inexpensive brand of paper - TerraSlate, which is durable with a small thickness and holds its shape well. There is also waterproof Kraft packaging.
Step-by-step instruction:
- We use an A4 sheet without cutting it. Fold the paper diagonally and open it. We bend the remaining part of the sheet in half like a mountain.
- Fold the right side of the square diagonally back.
- Rotate the workpiece 90° clockwise.
- We make folds in a “mountain” along the dotted lines.
- We bring the resulting side valves inward. Fold the left side in a zigzag pattern to form a handle. We bend its lower corner. We place the upper triangular valves inward, holding the cup together so that it does not fall apart.
- At the end, pressing on the bottom edge with your finger, we press it in, forming the bottom.
