DIY How to Make a Gnome Fairy House using Foam and Foam Clay - Free Pattern
Vložit
- čas přidán 28. 02. 2021
- I made this gnome fairy mushroom house out a mixture of EVA Foam and Foam clay. Both of these materials are extremely easy to work with and can be crafted with minimal tools on hand. In this video I go over all of the steps it took me to assemble my gnome home as well as paint it using a variety of acrylic paints. This is the kind of project that you could craft with your kids and place out in backyard or in the woods for someone to come across. I have a free template for the mushroom home available on my site so that you can download and build right along with me. Have fun with this project and make it your own!

Thank you for offering diversity in your builds. It keeps your site fresh.
You're welcome!
I cannot wait to try these little gems! My Hubby loves gnomes and a few of these would decorate our garden delightfully!
Awesome!
Absolutely cute, but you could also cut the Windows out and place some LED LED ligths inside to make a adorable lamp 😊
You sure can!
Looking great I will have my kids make these, they would love it
Thank you! I hope they have a blast!
Well thanks Steve, NOW I have to make one of these for my sister 😑😝 love it!!
That's awesome and you are welcome!
Awesome work man! Have you ever tried your hand on Star Wars armor? I've seen plenty of people make clone or storm trooper armor but I would love to see you di it as well! Especially Mandalorian armor or Snoke's Red Guards :)
Thanks! Haven’t made any SW armor yet but maybe it’s something to add to the list
Adorable ♡ Thank you for sharing another awesome idea.
You're welcome!
Awesome 👍
Thanks!
Dude, your anime and game weapons build are awesome, but I really love these whimsical and family/kid friendly builds too. I think the variety is great and hope you keep it up!
Thanks! I have tried really hard to come up with projects that are of different styles and skill sets because everyone has their own interests and builds at their own pace
So cute!! 😍
Thank you! 😊
pretty cool !
Thanks!
Cute, reminds me of Berbil houses (80's Thundercats)
Always had the issue of which is more annoying Ro-Bears or Snarf 😂
Really nice!
Thank you very much!
Love it!
Thanks!
SKS Props and thank *you* for all your awesome work! Oooo did you catch Tested’s video today where they made the spheres out of foam? Definitely learned a few new tips from it today
@@mathewcox9371 I appreciate you taking the time it’s a ton of work and knowing that these videos help definitely helps me get through the long days. Haven’t watched it yet but it’s on my list
SKS Props honestly the pleasure is all mine. You have no idea how much it helps watching your videos both creatively and mentally and I can’t thank you enough for all you do. Never stop being the creative genius you are🖤🤍
Totally Smirf Houses.
🙌
Awesome job Steve. Whenever I see your videos, I'm always trying to learn something new, but do you have any suggestion to avoid brush strokes on the liquitex rich silver? Good job also on saying it is a little house for "gnomes", to avoid any copyright take down 😅
Thanks! It’s all about the brushes you use and your wrist technique. I’m not adding a ton of paint to the brush that would leave strokes it more about applying a smaller dose but then moving that paint around in a manner that isn’t linear
Its a smurf house! :-)
Sure is!
I try to use the smooth sanding drum but it takes too much off, so I use the stone pit instead that seems to allow for better control and it doesn't take too much off at one time.
Yeah stone bits are definitely part of my toolkit as well
Love this! Would this hold up if put outside in a garden?
Thanks! You would want to clear coat any crafts that would be outside. You could use a spray polyurethane 👍
What would you finish the piece with for outdoor displaying?
You’d want to clear coat it with an acrylic spray or a polyurethane
Can u use this outside
You would just need to seal it with an acrylic spray
now for a smurf
Hmmm like Gargamel I do wish to become the most powerful foam sorcerer 😆
What's the difference between foam clay and air dry clay?
Foam Clay is an air dry type of clay but it is easier to work with using water to make it stick and smooth out textures. Also it's lighter and doesn't crack near as bad as Crayola model magic.
@@SKSProps Thank you for responding to me. I really liked watching what you did. The "air dry clay" I am using is actually more like paper clay or a mache. Below are a couple links to look at. If you wouldn't mind taking a look, I'd love to hear what you think compared to the foam you are using.
Also, what is the cost of this clay foam?

Thank you for your time.

@@SKSProps So I thought this stuff came in sheets. So you roll it out to the thickness you want and cut from there, is that correct? I definitely see the benefits of using this form. So how many grams of this stuff did you go through to make this adorable mushroom house?
@@kimhuff it’s a mixture of the sheets and foam clay(less than 1 bucket used). Here’s a link to the sheets as well bit.ly/2NECyrU
Can you make star wars westar 35 blaster
❤
can you make hellboys samaritan
it's a very cute project but i don't think it's appropriate for outdoor use. it's not biodegradable and you don't want some critter to eat it.
Hmm, I guess you could say you did shrooms this week
that's a smurf house
