Papertole
The origins of this art is not too obvious, but many people say that papertole derived from the European continent.
Recipe To Make Your Own Clay
1. Paperclay: materials and equipment needed include Kaolin, Waste paper or old newspapers, Polyvinyl Alcohol* torn paper and soak it more or less one night, after that crush it using a blender / mixer using a drill d to shreds
* input of water into the blender with half the weight ratio of mix kaolin, mix kaolin and blend until thick
* prepare a polyvinyl alcohol (buy at the chemical store) heat with water until thick mixed
* these three ingredients until evenly, up to texture and consistency like clay.
2. Clay Flour: the material needed is 70 gr wheat flour, tapioca flour and rice flour (the same comparison), white glue / glue 180 gr fox wood, nail polish transparent / translucent, watercolor / tempera paint
* mix all the flour up to evenly
* dough the flour with glue, do it flat
* if it is evenly, add color as you want
* if the clay has been formed as you want paint with nail polish for durabilities
How To Make Your Clay Craft Become Lasting Collection
1. Do not store your collection of clay in a damp place, try to keep it in a dry and warm.
2. Immediately clean the dirt and dust are embedded, I suggest a small clean with a soft brush.
3. Sprinkle preservative (in the form of gel) around clay.
4. If you want to display in an open space try these clay covered glass container.
5. To craft clay that has a shiny color varnish if you could add color to fade, use nail varnish.
Collecting Action Figures
Collecting action figures is fun because we can have characters who we like in three dimensions, the action figure is a posable character-shaped figurine, dolls or small-sized sculpture that normally made of plastic or clay.Most of the action figure is derived from comic characters, movies, and games, but lately a lot of famous people from celebrities, sportsmen, politicians also made into action figures. Fans are the main reasons why the action figure is in great demand, not only children, many adults who collect the goods on this one, therefore the action figure is a collector's item that has no specific segments, old, young, male or female, all have the possibility to be a collector of this stuff.
There are two basic forms of action figures, the first being shaped figurine that most have anatomically intact, most of this type can be converted-change pose because it has a joint cavity (preferably a lot of children as toys), but some are not rigid can be moved at all. The second type can be shaped as accessories such as key chains, head of the belt and others, most do not form intact.So what action figure you like?, if interested in collecting them immediately hunt to have your own action figure ... good luck.
Miniature Musical Instrument
One more item is required to be owned by collectors who like replicas and miniatures, I think this one item is a unique creation made with precision.Some of the craftsmen even already have a license from brands famous musical instruments, mostly replicas of musical instruments in the market is a conventional musical instruments such as guitar, drums, and piano but I also have seen a few manufacturers who make replicas of traditional musical instruments.
For exclusive product category, you certainly have to spend quite a lot of money because of the similarity and detail will be 90 percent as the original.
If you feel obliged to collect this stuff then you should immediately look at the official sites of the craftsmen of this replica, happy hunting ...
Clay
Another interesting hobby that I will review this time is "clay", clay may be not too foreign in our ears because a lot of objects around us made of it, such as ceramics and pottery, but wait a minute I am talking about this clay rather than the usual clay but a different kind.
On progress and trends over time to form something out of clay art began to flourish, because the needs and the reduction in natural clay, the clay type of imitation that was born recently become a trend.This imitation clay still have sub types which vary, depending on material and usability, clay type has different characteristics according to the functions and needs of the craftsmen themselves.
Most of the clay of this type, formed by the craftsmen into a replica of something such as fruit or food, and some are shaped doll or action figure.
Below are the types of clay imitations that are widely used, and available on the market:
- Paper Clay
- Bread Clay
- Wheat Clay
- Jumping Clay
- Air Dry Clay
- Polymer Clay
Collage Painting
Do you ever see a painting that is made up of many objects are pasted into a form or a beautiful picture? it called painting collage, so sense basically about this collage technique is paste any kind of material (other than paint) to be a painting, many kinds of media used for this kind of painting techniques such as paper.
Maybe painting with this technique looks very easy job but in fact this technique are in need of accuracy and calculation because not only the origin paste something into a medium, you imagine how difficult making a form of pictures or create gradations of color, because it just a painter who could do it.
But don't worry, for beginners who are interested to pursue this hobby you can begin to learn and start to paint something simple shapes and colors, such as avoiding color gradation.
well good luck then, hopefully a glimpse of the painting with collage technique is useful for you.
Papercraft
Papercraft is the art of designing or more precisely art of assembling the paper of two-dimensional (2D), which has a pictorial format to be a form of three-dimensional (3D), that is by folding, cutting, bending, and glue, so basically we just assembling thing that was half done.
Alois Senefelder is the man who improve the art of this thing, papercraft very popular at the beginning of World War II, in 1941 papercraft first edition printed and marketed in the UK at the time, papercraft once very popular in society, with a model ship or aircraft as prime but as time went on and the emergence of a replica made from plastic, papercraft began to recede existence, now only a few people who still collect or learn this hobby.
Hobby And Recycling Waste Into Valuable Economic Goods
I have read an article related to household waste, in the article mentioned that one person can produce 0.66 gallons of waste per day if the family were four persons, the total waste generated become 2.64 gallons, it was daily calculation not to mention the monthly amount that will produce pretty fantastic numbers for the size of garbage.
Where do you ever imagine the trash end up? is it possible that all waste can be parsed by the ground? certainly not some kind of waste can not be at all to be parsed by the soil, type of waste that can not be parsed, such as glass and most plastics are recycled into something, or remain as the previous form, but the problem is the waste of this kind can only be recycled once or twice only, because the conditions of this type of waste eventually will not be used again.Then what will we do about the waste we produce?. like it or not we should think of solution, so trash does not destroy nature and our environment, at least we can minimize the adverse effects of waste that begins from our own family. in some developed countries, the habit of sorting waste by type is already a real action in reducing the negative impacts of hazards that will be generated from the waste itself, but unfortunately it is still less popular habit in countries that are still in developing stage is due to a lack of public awareness in maintaining their own environment.The second way is to manage the goods by as much as possible, for example, is using a plastic bag repeatedly until not possibly be used again. I think this method is very effective in reducing the waste we produce.
In the article I wrote this time I will discuss other alternatives on how the economic value of waste management, such as with a bit carefulness and creativity we can recycle something that is not considered waste into something useful such a beautiful shape and even has a useful function. These creations can be obtained from the goods that have become waste in everyday life, could have originated from old newspapers, old beer bottles, plastic bags and others.
management in this way is suitable for those who have a hobby assemble or something related to art, because basically it takes artistry and skill in assembling to produce something beautiful and has a function, I do not know why, in some developing countries are managing less good trash, recycling waste into something or crafts are very popular in contrast to developed countries that have a culture of better waste management.
What are you waiting for?, let's be creative, start from now managing the waste properly and change your hobby into pot of money while conserving the environment.
