You can ennoble your own home with your own hands. Homemade products for household – this is not just an interesting idea for author's design, such things are gaining popularity in the world and even the most famous designers are hunting for masters who are able to make a real work of art. In addition, such lovely organizers seriously facilitate cleaning, help organize materials for hobbies, books, trinkets and jewelry. There are a great many options for DIY home crafts, each author brings something of his own to the project, but in the end you always get something warm, homely and cozy.
There are several variations of various crafts made of metal, clay and plastic, but all of them are aimed at a single goal - to make a person's life in the house easier and more comfortable. That's why all DIY home crafts can be roughly classified into:
In the end you can make a craft just like that without bothering to find her useful application... In the end, making useful things for the house with your own hands from wood, metal, plastic or is just a hobby, which, however, can become the main business.
As for where to get materials and tools, fortunately, the modern infrastructure of the market allows you to find absolutely everything for needlework or carpentry in the nearest store.
Among homemade homemade products that you can do yourself, toolbox- this is perhaps the first thing to do home master... Such a stool is extremely functional and easy to create, cost Supplies is incomparable with the market price of a good chair, and due to its extremely primitive design, the bench will last quite a long time. All that is needed in order to make such a homemade product for the house is:
A tree for such a homemade product should be chosen that is simple to work with, that is pine or beech... Hard woods are highly undesirable, for example, oak, which is incredibly difficult to work with at home, not to mention the fact that doing full processing with your own hands is a time consuming task.
From the bars, you need to make four U-shaped blanks, one larger than the other. This is the base of the bench and sled steps. Then you need to strengthen the legs with an additional bar. For the step on it, fix the slide on both sides. Make a niche in the form of a small box under the stool seat, then screw on the side panels. Cover the finished homemade product with varnish.
Such a homemade product will come in handy on any trip.... It is unprofitable to buy it, since the cost of even the simplest is higher than the price of consumables. And in order to make a bag yourself, you only need a few simple elements:
It is recommended to choose from insulation options foamed polyethylene widely used for household purposes. Enough 1-2 meters of this material. From the insulation you need to make a cross with a central part, and then pack it in an old bag. It is better to cut off the "lid" of the homemade product and attach it to tape, fill the side joints with the remnants of insulation or foam rubber. You can make such a homemade product yourself in 20 minutes, no more, and in terms of efficiency it is in no way inferior to store counterparts, since insulation is excellent insulating material.
House-scratching post made of wood- This is the most productive way to keep all other items in the house intact by giving your pet a new toy to be torn apart. It is quite simple to make it, since there are many variations of the project. For the entry-level, one house with a cylindrical scratching post is enough. This will require:
The simplest is a house with a square roof, but a more complex project can be done for a pet - with sloping top or several levels.
Before work, wooden elements should be covered with a carpet, it is better to do this with self-tapping screws, but making sure that their tips do not look out and do not damage the pet's paws. One of the panels will act as a base, the "foundation" of the house is mounted on it - 4 slats, a panel is fixed to each of the slats, then another level of slats should be added from above and the structure should be covered with a roof. Installation takes place on corners or screws. An entrance should be drilled or cut out in the front panel. Fix the cylinder near the entrance, and then wind the string with special glue.
There are a lot of options for useful crafts, most of the options are copyright and were invented literally out of necessity, that is, to solve a specific problem. In order to come up with something of your own, it is enough to overcome laziness and pay attention to those problems that interfere with living in own home, and then solve them on your own, because it is very pleasant.
Manufacturing electronic homemade products with their own hands gained popularity in the last century, when semiconductor devices appeared. With their help, it was quite easy to assemble devices necessary for everyday life from old equipment. Today, the repair and collection of equipment for a house or a summer residence, for a car or a garage can also be solved at home.

Every electrician can make electric self-made products for home and summer cottages that use the power of electricity. Most gadgets are built from factory components and only require school knowledge of electricity.
The electric BBQ grill can be both horizontal and vertical. Stores usually sell vertical ones, and they do a great job with their functions after some tweaking.
To create a horizontal barbecue, you will need a heating element and a frame that resembles a barbecue. A heating element can be made from a ceramic tube and a nichrome spiral wound around it. The tube is fixed through an insulating material in a metal body. Drawings are required to assemble the enclosure.
An equally interesting idea is a barbecue grill with an electric drive for rotating skewers. By adding an electric motor to a regular grill, you can get an excellent machine that will cook barbecue offline. To organize a skewer drive, you can use a motor from the wipers, from a washing machine or any other 12 volt motor. With a pulley system and a belt or gear transmission the rotation of the shaft is transferred to the skewers and the meat is slowly turned over the coals.
This antenna will improve the reception quality and Wi-Fi speed in your home. According to reviews, after connecting it, the signal level rises from 5 to 27 Mbps.
For manufacturing it is necessary:
Manufacturing process:

Consider several projects of useful homemade products for the garage.
If you have low lighting in your garage, then an impromptu chandelier will be very useful. To make a bifurcated chuck, you will need a pair of corner chucks, which are sold at your regular hardware store.
Sequencing:
The use of conventional bulbs in such a design is undesirable - the cartridges can melt from heating.
Another lighting option could be a homemade LED lighting device.
To make it you will need:
The manufacturing sequence is as follows:
The necessary device in the garage will be a homemade spot welding machine, which is based on a transformer from an old microwave. Necessary condition- the transformer must be operational in order not to rewind all windings.
The welder assembly process is quite simple:
Homemade spot welding tool
You can find a lot of homemade products interesting ideas for use in field conditions, as well as for hunting and fishing.
An example is an electronic signaling device for fishing with an ordinary fishing rod or other tackle. A simple bite device can be assembled in just half an hour. For it you will need an old squeaky keychain and a strip of plastic 1-2 mm thick.
Assembly of the signaling device:
Now, when biting, the fish will pull the line, the plastic will fly out, the contacts will close and the keychain will work.
With a homemade underwater ice fishing camera, you can see if there is any fish under the hole. And this simplifies the fishing process.
For manufacturing you will need:
Build process:
You can make a good bait for fishing yourself. It will be a device based on a simple multivibrator.
You will need:
The bait is assembled as follows:

Car enthusiasts create DIY homemade products to improve appearance and the convenience of using the car.
For a car, a simple homemade electrical probe is perfect. It can indicate the presence of 12 volts in the electrical circuit. With the help of it, the serviceability of the relay, as well as light bulbs and other equipment is checked. You can make such a device from a syringe and LEDs.
Assembly diagram:
The video tells how to make a syringe tester. Filmed by ILYANOV channel.
The circuit for smoothly turning off the light in the car interior is quite simple to manufacture. Such electronics are suitable for any car. A small board consisting of a capacitor and diodes is soldered in parallel to the terminals of the passenger compartment lamp. The drop in the voltage of electricity will occur gradually and will create the effect of a gradually dying light.
To make a car subwoofer with your own hands, you must first purchase a speaker. It is necessary to build on its dimensions when calculating the size of the case.
The simplest and most successful form of the subwoofer for the trunk is a truncated pyramid with a slope like the rear seats.
With your own hands, you can make car fog lights on LEDs.
For creativity you will need:
DIY assembly instructions:
A very convenient car carrying is obtained from a computer USB lamp. It is compact and can be connected to any place in the car wiring.
Manufacturing scheme:
A summer cottage is the territory where you can give yourself freedom to carry out numerous experiments and dream up to your heart's content. This manifests itself not only in interior design, but mainly in the design of the garden or vegetable garden. Inquisitive and resourceful owners have not been guided by expensive and standard methods for arranging their sites for a long time, since there are many alternative solutions for virtually all areas of activity.
There are several types of vertical beds that allow you to optimize the use of free space. Non-standard designs are an excellent opportunity to create an interesting design for a garden, a vegetable garden, a summer cottage.
This type of beds in most cases is used for growing ornamental plants or spicy herbs.
Materials for making:
Length drainpipes regulated in accordance with the wishes of the owner of the site. However, cumbersome beds should not be made, as they can complicate movement across the territory.
Creating a garden
Stage 1. Create a container. To do this, we take a drainpipe, cut it in half lengthwise and put on special plugs on both sides.
Stage 2. We take the prepared metal holders, put them on the resulting frames for the beds.
Stage 3. We make holes in the pipe. They are made in those places where metal fasteners will be located.
Stage 4. We pass a cable or a strong rope through the holes made.
Stage 5. We fix the cable / rope with fasteners.
Stage 6. We fill the resulting beds with expanded clay and soil.
Stage 7. We plant the plants in the beds.
Stage 8. We hang the pipes to the chosen place. Sometimes a special wooden crossbar is placed for this, or rather a construction in the shape of the letter "P".
Step 9. Alternatively, you can make a special design for the pipes.
Important! A bed of drainpipes is not resistant to strong gusty winds, so you should choose a place for it that is not blown from four sides by winds. Otherwise, the frame will quickly collapse, nullifying all your efforts.
A bed made of a plastic bag is another modification of vertical beds. It is extremely compact, functional and externally interesting. You can make such a bed in a couple of hours.
Materials for making:
In order for the bed to be solid, it is recommended to pay special attention to the thickness of the polyethylene film, which in this case will act as the "frame" of the structure. The minimum film thickness is 0.2 mm.
The process of creating a plastic bed
Step 1 . We cut out 2 rectangular film segments, the size of which corresponds to the size of the created bed. An allowance of one and a half to two centimeters should be left on each side. The recommended bed diameter is twenty centimeters.
Step 2. Sew the rectangles together, leaving only the upper part of the bag unconnected.
Step 3. Sew a handle to the future garden bed, the strength of which will support the weight of the bag filled with soil. It should also be borne in mind that when watering, the weight will increase.
Step 4. Fill the bag with fertilized soil.
Step 5. Make horizontal cuts on the bag in twenty centimeters increments. They are necessary in order to plant seedlings in the garden bed.
Step 6. We plant seedlings.
Step 7. Water the soil regularly and add the necessary fertilizers.
With these simple steps, you can get a cheap and useful garden bed.
An integral element of every summer cottage is a compost heap. This is the place where all kinds of biochemical reactions take place that ensure the creation of fertilizers.
To create fertilizers that will satisfy all the requirements for them, you should carefully consider several key steps: creating a container and directly making the correct compost itself. Let's talk about each of them in more detail.
Stage 1. Take eight support posts of the same length.
Stage 2. We treat the lower part of the wooden posts with engine oil or tar.
Stage 3. We dig the posts into the ground so that they are reliable and stable. If the compost bin will be located next to the fence, then 4 posts (i.e. one side) can be attached to the fence. This will avoid having to dig 4 holes.
Stage 4. Between each two adjacent posts we nail the crossbeams so that we end up with three independent sections. Be sure to leave slots that will function as ventilation holes.
Stage 5. In two sections, we nail the boards horizontally to half the height of the posts. In these places, it is planned to create two small doors.
Step 6. The remaining section will have a large door, so only one plank should be nailed down. It should be located at the very bottom in a horizontal position, that is, like a regular crossbar.
Stage 7. Installing the covers. You can use one large solid board for this.
Stage 8. Install the pre-prepared doors.
Stage 9. We provide doors with handles and latches.
Stage 10. We process wood using special impregnations.
Step 11. Paint the box any color that suits your preferences.
Many gardeners mistakenly believe that any component can be dumped into a compost heap. In fact, to create the right biofertilizer, you need to carefully select the "ingredients".
Among the mandatory components of a compost heap are the following:
All elements are randomly mixed on the heap. To speed up chemical reactions, it is recommended to cover the pile with a tarpaulin (this is especially true in the absence of a box).
Traveling to the country house with the family presupposes the presence of entertainment elements on the site that will delight children. The most common way to keep young summer residents busy is with a swing.
Building a swing yourself is not an easy task, but quite doable. Of course, you can always take a stick, tie it with a rope and hang the structure on a tree, but this can hardly be called a full swing. True craftsmen prefer to build comfortable structures with a comfortable seating position.
Constructive components:
Indicators:
Making a swing
Stage 1. We stretch the ropes between the logs.
Stage 2. We wrap each log with ropes.
Stage 3. We release the ropes out.
Stage 4. We tighten the ropes by 3 knots.
Stage 5. We fix the swing on the tree.
Important: such a swing is designed for only one person.
There are several types of garden paths that you can easily do with your own hands.
Step 1. Remove the sidewall from the tire using a knife or saw.
Step 2. Cut the tires.
Step 3. We line the space with grooved stripes.
Step 4. We paint the path with paint.
Step 5. Sprinkle with stone chips.
This is an economical option for those who do not want to rack their brains and spend time on a full garden path... The tire track is usually used for vegetable gardens, as it easily fits into the ground.
Stage 1. We paint the corks in different colors.
Stage 2. We dig a small trench.
Stage 3. We drive in supports to strengthen the future track.
Stage 4. We build the formwork using boards.
Step 5. Install spacers along the edges of the trench.
Stage 6. We place crushed stone deep into the trench and carefully tamp it.
Stage 7. We make a mortar from sand, cement, glue and water.
Stage 8. Pour the solution into the trench.
Stage 9. Press the plugs in random order. Even multi-colored stripes look interesting.
These are the simplest and quick ways make a garden path without purchasing expensive materials.
The expression "everything will come in handy on the farm" is most relevant when it comes to canisters. From this plastic container, you can make a large number of irreplaceable tools that are actively used in the process of summer cottage work.
To make this tool, we only need a sharp knife and the container itself.
Stage 1. Cut off the bottom of the canister.
Stage 2. We mark on the container the cut line for the scoop so that the handle from the canister is the handle of the future tool.
Stage 3. Cut off excess material.
Due to these simple actions we get a great scoop with a comfortable handle.
Materials:
Manufacturing
Stage 1. Carefully wash the canister so that there is no smell left in it.
Stage 2. We cut the canister vertically into two parts.
Step 3. Make a groove on the plank using a woodworking machine.
Stage 4. Apply glue to the plywood and insert into the bottom of the canister.
Stage 5. We paint the resulting shelf with a spray can.
Of course, such a structure will not withstand a lot of weight, but it is quite suitable for storing small parts.
Materials:
Stage 1. We pierce the upper part of the cans with a knife.
Stage 2. We make a stencil out of paper.
Stage 3. We apply it to the canister, outline it with a marker.
Stage 4. Cut out large holes with scissors.
Stage 5. We put the prepared cans in several rows, tying each row by prying the rope under the container handles.
Stage 6. We tie all the rows around the perimeter for greater strength.
Stage 7. If the cabinet is planned to lean against the wall, then we drill it to the surface.
Stage 8. We put heavy objects in the bottom row - stones or bricks.
The result is a fairly spacious and functional rack that will help get rid of the issue of storing many small parts.
Be resourceful and courageous in bringing your ideas to life. Good luck!
Homemade homemade products are not very popular among city dwellers.
Indeed, today the market for all kinds of goods is represented by the widest assortment, among which it is easy to choose something suitable for yourself.
However, in order not to spend extra money on little things, as well as to improve your own skills, you can create all these items with your own hands.
Among useful homemade products for the home, you can find the following:
DIY homemade products can be very different. There can be one step from beauty to practicality in their development, and the proof of this is the interesting shelves from coffee cans. For such a craft, you will need:
We start creating a homemade shelf by making holes. On the back (bottom) of each jar, you need to make a hole that will serve as a fastener to the wall.
However, it is not at all necessary to make a hole in each jar, but if your shelf is large, there should be at least 2 of them.
Instead of glue, you can use a drill and drill a hole in each can, which will be fastened together with nuts and screws, but, of course, it is easier to work with glue.
To prevent homemade homemade products from falling apart, already on the wall, you should use a very strong glue, for example, the one that is used in shoe repairs. can consist not only of cans, but also of glass.
Glass jars can be a useful homemade product for storing small items.
If you have an animal in your house, and somewhere in a pantry or on a hill, an old monitor is gathering dust, which has not worked for a long time or will never be used, you can quickly make a house for a cat out of it.
To do this, simply unscrew the screws from the device, remove the case and separate it from the insides, including the screen. Next, we connect the body parts with the same screws, thoroughly wipe the monitor from dust and start decorating.
As a decoration for a cat's house, you can take ordinary paint, which covers the entire surface of the house you have created. But there is another way: take watercolors and decorate the former monitor with patterns of your choice.
Hanger - DIY homemade from buttons
For button hangers, we need:
You can cover the hanger with a cloth and sew buttons on the fabric, it also looks pretty nice.

Thread hangers
This is the hanger itself. You need thick threads with which you wrap the hanger and get a wonderful homemade homemade product for your home.
To fix the threads, first apply PVA glue to the hanger.
All homemade products for the home are very useful, as they give new life old things and bring beauty and creativity to your home.
Crafts made from old objects and things to which you can return a second life can make your home much more comfortable. Some do-it-yourself homemade products for the household can significantly save the household budget, make work easier, or make the surrounding interior more interesting. And even if difficulties arise in the process, overcoming them will be worth it.
Almost in any home there is always some set of tools necessary for the household. But sometimes situations arise when, to work in your own workshop or garage, you need some kind of device that cannot be purchased in the store or it is very expensive. In this case, you can find a way out by making it yourself.
This metal heating device will become an indispensable assistant in your home workshop. The forge can be safely used to make original items using artistic forging. These will be truly unique forged items.
For the furnace, it is best to use an empty 25 liter gas cylinder. Its ends are cut off with a grinder, and the furnace door and its rear part will be made from the cut parts. The inside of the cylinder is covered with refractory ceramic wool, which is able to withstand temperatures over 1200 0 C. From above, it is coated with fireclay clay (lined), which can withstand temperatures up to 1500 0 C. After lining, fireclay slabs or refractory bricks are placed on the bottom of the hearth.
A hole is drilled at the top and a small squeegee is inserted, allowing you to insert the nozzle of a gas burner, which can create a temperature in the hearth of more than 1000 0 C - quite enough to heat the metal to a certain temperature suitable for forging.
In the manufacture of such a lift, the cash costs will be much less than buying a factory model. To make it, you will have to spend only on materials, half of which, perhaps, can be found in the garage.
Materials required to assemble the lift:
For the lifting mechanism, it is best to use a worm gear manual winch with a maximum load of 500 kg, which is attached to one of the crane legs.
The design does not take up much space in the workshop, easily moves on hard surfaces and is quite convenient for removing the engine from the car.
The main highlight of this rack is its small size., but at the same time it is possible to place a large number of tools on it, and if necessary, quickly move it to any place or adjacent room. It is very convenient to use such a rack in your workshop or when conducting construction and repair work in large rooms, especially when you need to carry tools frequently.
The rack can be assembled on the basis of a collapsible plastic rack mounted on a homemade platform with wheels (trolley). The platform is made precisely to the dimensions of the rack from a metal corner with 45x45 mm shelves or a sheet of plywood with a thickness of at least 10 mm. Furniture metal wheels are used for movement.
In addition to the rack, you can make and fix fasteners for building levels, extension cords and other tools that can be stored hanging.
There is not always a financial opportunity to buy, for example, something from new furniture in a furniture showroom or place an order for its production. But you can always get out of this situation by making the right thing with your own hands, while making it attractive and unique, using available means for this.
A kitchen backsplash is a wall surface located between a worktop and wall cabinets. Usually this part of the wall is lined tiles... But to cover it, it is possible to use many other materials, for example, to glue wine corks on the wall.
This exclusive decor looks pretty gorgeous.
Before gluing, each cork is cut lengthwise into two halves with a sharp clerical knife. It is advisable to paint the wall black, which will accentuate the seams between the corks.
The corks are glued to the wall using liquid nails in a checkerboard pattern or with a certain pattern, since it is unlikely that they can be laid out perfectly exactly, and the curved rows will visually look disgusting.
The corks themselves are not afraid of moisture, but they quickly get dirty and poorly washed, so it is best to cover them with a glass screen made of tempered glass. True, you will have to spend a little money on it and order glass in a special workshop, where they will cut it to a given size and make holes for sockets and fasteners.
The glass is fixed to the wall with anchor dowels, which can be purchased at almost any hardware store.
While an apron decorated with wine corks can be expensive, the results achieved will be worth it.
The surface of the countertop, as well as the wall, can be decorated with corks and covered with tempered glass.
Mounted on the wall folding table IR allows you to save some space in the apartment. In the unfolded state, it can protrude from the wall at a distance of no more than 10 cm and does not interfere with anyone at all, but when unfolded it can replace a full-fledged table.
There are many options where you can use a folding table fixed to the wall. Here are just a few of the most basic ones:
Probably there is nothing better than freshening up under the running water on a hot summer day, especially if he went to work in the garden. Naturally, only a shower will solve this problem and remove the fatigue accumulated during the day.
The shower can be installed independently without the involvement of outside help, the main thing is to choose a place for it and decide on the type of shower cabin.
Three types of cabins stand out among summer showers., which you can freely build on your own:
Installation of a simple shower is done in this way:
The booth can be sheathed with boards, plywood, slate, or simply covered with tarpaulin or cellophane wrap with folding canopies.
The topic of construction or renovation probably worries everyone. And, of course, everyone who deals with it wants to finish it as soon as possible with minimal financial costs... Therefore, if you want to save money, you can make some materials for construction on their own... For example, it can be wall SIP panels or such a useful tool as a vibrating plate, the need for which often arises for many owners of a personal plot.
For their manufacture, you need to prepare a flat, hard platform. Laying on it a sheet of OSB with a thickness of 10-12 mm with a rubber spatula with teeth, apply glue to it.
Then lay sheets of 25-30 grade foam plastic on the glue. After that, on top of the laid foam plastic, as well as on the bottom OSB plate, an adhesive mass is applied, and the second OSB sheet is laid on top.
If several panels are being made at the same time, stacked in a pile, work should be done quickly, until the glue hardens. Usually, in this way, no more than 4-5 panels can be prepared at a time.
After the blank for the formed slabs, you need to create pressure using a press. Since at home, of course, hydraulic press no, it can be replaced with a thick plywood sheet laid on the prepared SIP-plates over the entire plane and loaded for 2-3 hours, for example, with several bags of cement, sand or other cargo. You can even use a passenger car, driving onto a plywood sheet along a pre-made overpass.
After the glue is completely dry, the homemade panels will be ready, they can be folded into a separate pile and start preparing new panels. The manufactured panels should lie already without load for another day, after which they can be used for their intended purpose.
To make a homemade vibrating plate, you will need to prepare:
On the narrow sides of the slab, stepping back 80-100 mm from the edges, make an incision with a grinder to a depth of about 5 mm. After that, bend the edges towards the notch at an angle of about 25 0 and weld them. Bends are needed so that the vibrating plate does not sink into the material it compresses and moves freely along its surface.
Then, across the plate at a certain distance, calculated for the fastening of the electric motor, two channels are welded with the shelves down. Through advance drilled holes in the channel, with the help of M10 bolts, an electric vibrator is attached to them.
The tube-made handle attaches to the vibrator through soft rubber grommets available from your auto store or hardware store in the hardware department.
Thus, you can make a lot of useful things in the household with your own hands, spending only part of the money that would have to be paid when buying a finished product. You just need to make some effort and have certain skills.
