The result…Īnother way to make these would to simply stuff a mesh bag of sorts and tie off the ends. Once I fit it inside the net, I continued to add more pieces until it was well covered. I don’t have any pictures of this because it was a mess and really frustrating. I covered a round wooden bead with glue and rolled it around in the pieces, then later glued more pieces to any bald spots. I cut this up into a bunch of tiny pieces once it was dry. Some tips though… keep the end anchored to something, and don’t tie your knots too tight until you’re happy with how you’ve placed them! You could also use something like macrame cord (you can find really thin stuff on ebay… this is also great for making rope halters) instead of floss, so you could slightly melt the ends and knots to keep them from coming undone later.įor the hay, I cut up some raffia and went over it with watered down green paint. It was a lot easier to tie than I expected it to be. 🙂 My strands were really long (around 12 inches, which is plenty) but I found that keeping them long made things much easier in the long run! You don’t have to split them- I just wanted something thinner. I split five strands of embroidery floss to give me ten strands altogether.
MUCK BUCKET HOW TO
To make it, I found a tutorial on how to make a real one and re-created it in miniature. I also got it into my head to make a hay net. I haven’t figured out a way to make these from scratch yet! 😛
The fork is a plastic Breyer fork with a new (longer) handle added to it. I punched holes in the side with a tack and threaded the twist through with a large needle.
The handles were made by splitting a piece of embroidery floss in half, (my floss is made up of six individual strands) then twisting it together. I’m not too bothered with it because you know… it’s just a bucket. In the light, they can be a bit splotchy but honestly, my eyes don’t pick it up quite as well as my camera can. I added a coat of varnish over it as well.
Since they’re transparent, there really isn’t any need to paint the outside. I scratched the use-by dates off with my fingernail, then painted the inside with a couple coats of paint. This isn’t exactly a tutorial for that, but since I was making a new one I figured I would get some pictures as I went along. Several years ago I posted a picture of some muck buckets I had made from recycled Jello cups.
