Someone dreams of the sea, someone has returned from there. To preserve the memories of your vacation or to imagine yourself on the beach on the seashore, you can make a mural in a nautical style.

Peculiarities

A panel on a marine theme can be made from shells, sea stars, and various natural materials brought from rest. And you can use the materials left over after the renovation, which are likely to be found in every home.

It will not be difficult to make such a panel even for a child under the guidance of an adult; such an activity can captivate the whole family.

The panel can be either miniature or large enough.

Interesting ideas

Let's consider some of the ideas on how to make a panel on the "Sea" theme.

  • The panel will be created on a photo frame of any size. Visually divide the surface of the frame into several parts and prepare enough plaster mass to cover one such part. To do this, the gypsum should be diluted with water to the consistency of thick sour cream and PVA glue should be added. Apply the resulting mass to one part of the frame surface. Make a relief with a construction trowel or some improvised object, slightly pressing down to arrange the prepared decor: pebbles, shells, beads, etc. Do the same with each part. The resulting product, if desired, can be coated with paint from a spray can, then several times with varnish. The panel can now be hung on the wall.
  • Another version of the product is a panel with sand or any small grains in the background. If you want to portray sand, then semolina or small corn grits are suitable, if the panel should have a pebble shore, then you can take pearl barley, buckwheat, lentils. The base (it can be plywood, cardboard, photo frame) is carefully coated with PVA glue. Sprinkle generously with sand or grains, let dry, then shake off excess sand (grains).

Using a hot gun, glue seashells, pebbles, starfish and other decorative elements, imitating the seashore. Cover the finished work with varnish. This must be done several times, as the varnish will be absorbed into the sand.

  • You can create an unusual decoupage panel with your own hands. To do this, you need to choose a decoupage card or napkin on a nautical theme, or find it on the Internet and print a picture, for example, a sea maiden, a mermaid, a landscape or a ship. Using PVA glue, carefully glue the drawing onto the base. Separate parts of the picture (for example, a dress for a sea maiden, sand in a drawing with a landscape, a mermaid's tail, the deck and sails of a ship) are decorated with decorative elements in a nautical style (shells, pearls, quartz sand, small pebbles).

The panel on sacking will turn out to be very beautiful. To do this, you need to take a square piece of burlap, smooth the edges so that they are even.

Take four smooth twigs so that their length is slightly longer than the side of the square burlap. Coat the sticks with varnish and glue them with an overlap with hot glue, forming a square in size slightly larger than burlap. Then, using a thin twine and a darning needle, sew on the burlap with large but neat stitches, wrapping around the twigs. The fabric will turn out stretched on four sticks.

Take parchment paper and cut out an irregularly shaped figure from it so that it fits on the burlap, this will be the base of the panel. Glue the parchment figure to the sacking.

Lay out the planned pattern on it with small pebbles, shells, starfish, pearls and other decor. Cover with varnish.

Recommendations

Before you start making panels, you should prepare for this. Draw a sketch of the future work on a sheet and think over where and what items will be located. You should also prepare all the tools and materials that you need. Do not rush and allow time for each layer and detail to dry before proceeding with the next components.

It is necessary to take into account the general interior of the room. The panel will look more harmonious if it fits into the overall design. For example, such a panel would be very appropriate in a room decorated in a nautical or Scandinavian style.
