Want to make an unusual gift for the New Year or another holiday? Then you have to give free rein to imagination and work with your hands. For example, you can originally decorate the glass leg with a regular nail.
Yes, it sounds a little strange, but it is really possible. And in order to put this idea into practice, you will need a glass goblet of wine and a regular building nail.
First of all, it will be necessary to cut the leg of the glass in about half. For this, the master uses a drill with a diamond disk. The end face of the cut will need to be leveled so that later there are no problems when joining.
Moreover, the glass must be polished to a gloss so that the junction is not visible. To do this, you can buy various pastes.
The main stages of work
To bend a nail into a spiral, its end must be rigidly fixed. To do this, the master uses a piece of steel bar and another nail from which he makes an “ear”. Then the nail is fixed, heated and twisted into a spiral.
Next, you need to clean the bent nail with a grinder. Then, ultraviolet glue is applied to the lower part of the glass leg, a nail is put on and the upper part is glued. This will require UV lamps.
The result is a very stylish and original gift. For details on how to decorate the glass leg with a regular nail, we recommend that you look in the video on the website.
