For two baking sheets of cake halves we will need:

200 g white sugar
200 g almond flour
200 g powdered sugar
150 g egg whites
(2/3 cup)50 ml water

For filling:
1 bar of dark/milk chocolate
70 g cream
10 g butter
First we need to make sugar syrup. To do this, mix water and sugar and put it on low heat, cook for a long time until a drop of syrup on the plate stops spreading (this is about 15-20 minutes). Now beat half the whites until stiff peaks form. Now, without ceasing to beat the egg whites, carefully pour in our syrup in a thin stream. Continue beating until the mixture cools. If you want to make colored macaroons, then add the dye now too. Mix almond flour and powdered sugar until smooth, add the second half of the whites to the mixture. Add one tablespoon of whipped whites here and mix gently, now add all the whipped whites and mix very carefully from bottom to top until smooth. Transfer the dough into a pastry bag and squeeze out even circles onto baking paper or a silicone mat. If the dough is made correctly, they will spread quite a bit, but still leave 3-4 cm of space between the circles. Now we leave our blanks for 1-2 hours, until the top dries to such a state that it stops sticking to the fingers. This is very important stage: thanks to it, the cookies do not crack, and also acquire a wonderful “skirt”.

2 hours have passed and it’s time to preheat the oven to 180 degrees. We put the first baking sheet in there for 10 minutes, then open the door slightly and let them cook for another 2 minutes. We take them out and let them cool on a flat surface.
But making the cake halves is only half the battle. We still need some filling. I will write a recipe for the most basic one: chocolate ganache.
Melt the chocolate in a water bath, add cream and butter to it, mix everything well and put it in the refrigerator for a good 2 hours. The ganache is ready =) Now we take halves of macaroons of the same diameter, put fillings to taste on one of them, cover the second and enjoy the taste of Paris!

Postcard Golden Heart

The following materials will be required:
- Postcard made of white cardboard, 115×115 mm (or a sheet of cardboard folded in half)
- Red cardboard, 100 x 150 mm
- Gold paper, 50 x 100 mm
- Thick gold thread
- Shaped hole punch, making heart-shaped holes 12 mm wide
- Tracing paper and pencil TM
- Scalpel and cutting mat
- Single-sided tape
- Glue stick
- Pieces of self-adhesive soft plastic
Manufacturing progress:
1. Using a template, cut out a heart from red cardboard. Place the resulting blank on the mat and, using a scalpel, make small triangular slits at each pencil mark around the perimeter of the heart.
2. Secure the thread to the back of the heart with a piece of tape and begin winding the thread from the second triangular slit to the right of the center. This is your first (initial) cut. Pass eleven slits in a clockwise direction, thread the thread through the twelfth, then thread it into the second slot, then through the thirteenth, etc. Stop winding when you reach the second triangular slot to the left of center.
3. A circle has formed in the center. To fill it, wind the thread from the indentation at the top of the heart to the triangular slits along the bottom edge. To do this, skip eleven slits and thread the twelfth, then return to the recess again, thread the thirteenth - etc. Wrap the left half of the heart in the same way. Secure the thread on the back of the workpiece with tape.
4. Transfer two triangles with hearts to decorate the corners of the card onto red cardstock and cut them out. Trace these triangles on gold paper and cut out two slightly smaller triangles from it.
5. Turn the figured hole punch upside down and punch the hearts marked on them from the red triangles.
6. Carefully glue a gold paper triangle to the back of each red triangle.
7. Place the red triangles on diagonally opposite corners of the card and glue them with a glue stick. Glue cut out red hearts in the two remaining corners.
8. Attach three pieces of self-adhesive soft plastic or window seal to the back of the heart and adhere it to the greeting card.

Rye-wheat bread with seeds and pine nuts.

The peculiarity of rye flour is that it is “heavy to rise”, so we will need more time for proofing (at least an hour for this recipe). Ideally, you should proof it twice. This makes the bread airier and more porous. And the main thing here is to prepare yourself for a long process. But no! It won't take much effort from you! Just sometimes erase behind the test and that’s it) Actually, active actions here only take about 5-7 minutes :-).

So, for 2 medium baguettes we need:
200 ml warm water or milk
30 gr. fresh yeast or 10 gr. dry
2 tsp sugar
30 ml olive (or sunflower oil)
1 tsp salt
a handful (20-30 gr.) of pine nuts (can be replaced with walnuts)
3 tbsp. peeled sunflower seeds
100 gr. rye flour
about 300 gr. wheat flour

Silicone mat or baking paper
scoring blade

Cooking:
1. Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water (milk). Leave in a warm place so that the yeast begins to “work” (bubble, rise, etc.)
2. In a deep bowl, mix salt, butter, add the prepared dough, nuts, families, rye flour. then wheat flour, knead elastic dough.
3. Place in a warm place until the dough rises about 3 times in size (I left the dough for an hour).
4. Then knead the dough thoroughly again, it will fall off. And again leave it in a warm place to proof. It will rise a little less than the first time.
My daughter and I went for a walk, so the dough stood for about 2 hours.
5. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
6. Divide the dough into 2 parts.
7. Sprinkle the work surface with flour and roll out the dough to about 0.5-0.7 cm thick, then roll it into a tight roll.
8. Place the rolls on a baking sheet with a mat or baking paper, seam side down. We make several oblique cuts with the blade.
9. If desired, grease the roll with melted butter, yolk or egg white and bake for 25-30 minutes at 180 degrees. The bread will turn golden brown.
That's all! Delicious bread is ready!

How to make a wooden door mat.

You will need a drill, rope and wooden strips of the right size.

Drill holes in the slats, thread a rope through them, tying knots between the links and also secure them with knots at the ends.

Apply varnish and you're done. A big plus of such a stand is that dust and dirt do not accumulate in it; you just need to move it aside and wipe it with a damp cloth.

How to quickly pump up your abs.ch2.
Home workout program
However, you will still have to put a thick rug under your back, otherwise there is a chance, if not injuring the spine, then causing unpleasant pain in it for a long time. So, let's begin:
1: lie on your back on the mat, lift your legs and head and shoulders slightly above the floor, keep your arms crossed on your chest. On the count of “one” - bending your knees and raising your head and shoulders, bring your head as close as possible to your knees, on the count of “two” - return to the starting position. Pay attention to the position of the lower back - it should not come off the floor during all phases of the exercise.
2 – back extensions. Here you need to fix your legs; this is most conveniently done with the help of a partner, but you can also try to do this with the help of furniture, for example, by putting your legs under the bed. Only in this case you need to take care in advance of a dense and soft pad between the legs and the stop. Lying on your stomach, hold your hands behind your head and arch your back as much as possible, straightening your shoulders and moving your head as far back as possible.
3: crunches. To do this, you need to lie on your back perpendicular to the bed or ottoman, placing your shins on it and moving your pelvis closer. Keeping your hands behind your head, lift your head and shoulders, trying to pull them towards your knees. At the same time, to maintain the correct technique, it is useful to imagine yourself as a sheet of paper or a rug that is rolled into a tube from head to feet.
4: reverse crunches. To perform them, you need to lie on your back, keeping your hands on the floor next to your body. Having raised your legs straight, you need to try to stretch them as far as possible behind your head, lifting your pelvis (not your lower back!) from the floor, but in no case through swinging movements, but through the efforts of the muscles adjacent to the groin area.
At the initial stage, you need to do this at least twice a week, for at least ten minutes at a time. Repeat each exercise 5-10 times, gradually increasing the number of repetitions.

MYSHKIN HOUSE IN A BOX
It's also easy to make from a shoe box. Dollhouse for some small doll or soft toy(for example, mice). You just need to divide it into little rooms using strips of colored cardboard, cut doors in them, and windows in the walls of the box itself, stick it on the “walls” of the house with inside paintings, furniture, decor, rugs made of colored paper on the floor (by the way, everything can be cut out of magazines), put matchboxes in the bedrooms that will become beds, and let the residents into the house.

Leave the macarons to dry on the baking sheet for a MINIMUM of 20 minutes. More is better. The “hat” of the macaroons should no longer be sticky and a thin, barely noticeable crust will form on the surface. What happens if you don’t do this or wait less time? Here's what:
Macarons Crack in the oven already 5-6 minutes into baking. The same thing happens... remember the silicone mat? ... if you bake macarons on a silicone mat instead of baking paper. They are too delicate to withstand this temperature shock - the silicone gets too hot.

Key point number 6.

Confectioners advise either baking macarons by placing a structure of two more baking sheets under a baking sheet with them and turning the baking sheet at 180C for 6-7 minutes of baking, or - after the skirt appears (it appears around 5-6 minutes) opening the oven door twice. I follow the second option, open the oven door at 6 and 9 minutes of baking. Necessarily - after the appearance of a pronounced skirt. If the door is not opened... The skirt may grow too large and as a result the pasta will tilt to the side or delaminate.
Bake the macarons for approximately 12 minutes at 180C. But! It is imperative to keep an eye on them - depending on your oven, the time can vary from 11 to 14 minutes. The finished pasta is easily separated from the paper and does not stick.

In order not to damage the ready-made macarons, it is best to remove the baking sheet from the oven, remove the baking paper along with the macarons, let it cool in this form, and then remove it from the paper.

Techniques - smooth color transition manually
The post is dedicated to those who suddenly do not yet know how to make a smooth color transition in the absence of a pasta machine, or, like me, once saw, but now cannot find this technique on the Internet.

For example, this is how it works for me:

1 - Take the two desired colors, form triangles from them and fold them into a two-color square (it is not necessary to knead the plastic before doing this). 2- Cut the square into thin strips (10-12 pieces are usually enough for me). 3- Mix the colors in each strip - you get 10-12 pieces different shades, add 1 piece of “pure” color (in the example - gold and white) - a total of 12-14 balls. 4 - Pull each ball into a long sausage. The length is important, because then you will need to fold them in half several more times - the longer the initial layer, the longer it will be possible to fold it. We lay these sausages (rolled out to the same length, the width is not very important) tightly to each other from lighter shade to darker in order. 5- Roll out, leveling the resulting striped rug. 6- Fold the rug in half and roll it out again (carefully, without air pockets). 7- And fold and roll out again. And also - as much as your heart desires (I usually get it 5 to 10 times), or until the color transition becomes completely smooth and the layer is short and wide - then you can roll it into a sausage, if necessary. *You can take more than two flowers. Then simply cut the central colors into diamonds, and the two outer ones into triangles, and from all this make a rectangle, which is also cut crosswise into strips.

**You should always fold the rug lengthwise so that the colors lie on top of themselves (in the example, white color lay on white, and gold lay on gold).

***Roll out as evenly as possible, you can do it in different directions - sometimes along, sometimes across, but so that the mat preserves as much as possible rectangular shape and smooth and straight (ideally) edges.

****If you want the color of the sausage to change not from the center to the edge, but from one end to the other, then you need to roll out the mat so that it looks like Fig. 6 or Fig. 7 (maximum long, minimal wide) - this makes it more convenient to roll it into the desired sausage.

Paper- the most accessible material for creative activities with children. At making paper crafts with your own hands, the child learns to work with scissors, develops fine motor skills, accuracy, patience. I suggest you master class on making woven rugs from paper strips. Of course, I won’t reveal anything new to you, but still. But what if.

For this it is necessary.

Since our rug V finished form will look like a painting, you need to select cardboard (the basis of the picture) and the basis of the rug so that they fit together. WITH reverse side cardboard we outline the selected template. Let's cut it out.


Folding the base rug in half and for the child’s convenience, we draw lines along which he will later make cuts. Marking lines based on rug You can do it straight or oblique, as this will play a role in the finished craft.

Cutting the base rug and cut the second part into strips rug.


We weave our rug.


We take the base of the picture, coat it on the back side with glue along the perimeter of the cut out area and glue the finished rug. Rug can be positioned in different directions.


So that the reverse side of our painting is not visible, we will cover it with a landscape sheet. If you suddenly want to give it to someone, you can make an inscription.


We complement our work with small details.


This is what we got.

Remember those woven rugs made of colored paper?

The craft is simple, but very effective! Rugs can be made in any shape you like, combining different colors! Now I’ll tell you how to make a wicker rug from strips of paper.

We need:

  • Double-sided colored cardboard or paper of different colors. A cardboard mat will be denser and stronger.
  • Simple pencil;
  • Ruler;
  • Scissors;
  • Glue.

How to weave a paper rug:

Choose the main color of cardboard and cut out the base for the rug from it. It can be of different shapes: round, oval, square, rectangular, heart-shaped; you can make wicker fruits - apples, pears and plums, houses... The main thing is to choose a shape that is not too intricate: for example, it will be quite difficult to make a wicker blot or a star.

Having cut out the workpiece, we clearly mark it using a ruler and pencil into longitudinal strips - vertically, 1 cm wide.

Now we will make cuts along the intended strips, without cutting to the end by about 1.5 cm, so that the workpiece remains intact.

And now - the most exciting part! We take one strip at a time and weave it with the workpiece, according to the same principle as a loom weaves fabric. Longitudinal stripes are intertwined with transverse ones in a checkerboard pattern. We trim the edges of the strips and secure them with a drop of glue.

We weave the entire rug in this way. And when it is ready, you can attach a loop on the back side. Made from woven paper mats various shapes and the colors will turn out wonderful for a Christmas tree, or decor for another holiday - Valentine's Day or March 6th!

And just like that, kids will love to weave rugs from paper - it’s interesting, and in addition, it develops perseverance, artistic taste and fine motor skills (this is a note for parents) 😀

Young children do not realize the importance of some of the crafts they make with the help of a teacher in primary school or kindergarten. Each application or toy that the baby makes develops certain abilities and skills in the child. For children preschool age This includes cutting out figures and gluing them onto paper, light drawings with colored pencils, creating three-dimensional figures (for example, ladybug), rolling colored balls; for children of primary school age - rolling tubes to create a house with your own hands, the simplest elements of the quilling technique, working with self-adhesive paper, cutting out shapes and much more.

In kindergarten and primary school, children are required to make crafts, for example, paper weaving. Paper weaving for beginners is not difficult. This technique is not complicated, but it develops finger motor skills and attentiveness of the child. The technique involves weaving different colors of paper together.

Such a craft– a fun and interesting pastime with parents or class teacher. A primary school teacher knows that it is necessary to devote at least one class hour to weaving a paper mat - usually this technique arouses delight and great interest in children, and they make such a colorful paper mat more than once, following the step-by-step diagram.

Original paper crafts can be created not only using the origami technique - for example, if you use twill weave, you will get a nice paper braid, or a mat, or an entire carpet. The manufacturing technology is not so complicated step by step, but it will require care and perseverance, especially when making things big size. To understand whether you can cope with great job, you can weave a small sample. Instructions for making a rug are presented in our article. And in the gallery there is a presentation of finished works.

To make a bright rug, you need to stock up on paper and some office supplies:

Children learning weaving techniques should know how to use a ruler . Paper size can be changed depending on the desired size of the craft.

How to make a rug from colored paper: master class

Paper strips are sold in craft stores (mainly for the quilling technique), but you can weave them yourself. Even a beginner can cope with such a craft. To make a rug, you need to follow a step-by-step master class:

Making a rug from paper strips It is very important to respond to the child’s requests for help, especially at the moment of interweaving strips and parts of the base of the craft. It is important to take breaks while working and monitor the weaving that the child does. You should approach each child and work with him individually, answering his questions regarding the craft. From such a linen rug you can make a wallet, bookmark and much more.

For middle school children and adults who like the technique of weaving from paper, a more complex craft is suitable - weaving a decorative cage from newspaper tubes. To weave such a decorative element, you must have the following accessories.

How to make woven rugs and bookmarks from strips of paper. Step-by-step master class with photo.

Weaving from strips of paper

A rug woven by a child from strips of paper with his own hands can serve as a beautiful background for an applique. In the process of work, important skills and abilities are developed, fine motor skills are trained.

Children make such rugs from strips of paper in kindergarten and in primary school in technology lessons. In addition to the colored paper from the kits for children's creativity, can be used for weaving waste material: old magazines, leftover wallpaper, etc.

In addition to the rug, from strips of paper in the same way you can weave bookmarks for books, pictures-panels with a certain pattern or image similar to pixel drawings and patterns for cross stitch (more about this in the article), and you can also decorate the main ones with this weaving method application elements.

Rug made from strips of paper

The size of the mat and the width of the paper strips can be chosen as desired. But be sure to take into account the age and capabilities of the children who will weave the rug. It will be easier for preschoolers to do this craft if the stripes are wide enough, about 2 - 3 cm. This means that the rug should be larger - the size of an entire sheet of colored paper or half of it. Children of primary school age will be able to weave from strips 1 - 2 cm wide. My daughter and I made a rug from strips 1 cm wide, so a description of weaving a rug will be given for strips of this size.

How to weave a rug from strips of paper. Flat straight weave

  1. The base of the mat can be a square or rectangular sheet of paper. It needs to be folded in half.
  2. Draw a line 1 cm from the edge opposite the fold. This is necessary to ensure that all cuts are located at the same distance from the edge.
  3. Make marks on this line at a distance of 1 cm from each other.
  4. Make marks on the fold at a distance of 1 cm from each other.
  5. Connect the corresponding marks and make cuts along them.
  6. Expand the base.
  7. From colored paper of one or more colors, cut out strips 1 cm wide and the same length as the length of the base.
  8. Weave the strips into the base in a checkerboard pattern.




  9. Glue the ends of the strips to the base.



The cuts can be not only straight (they can go at an angle, zigzag, or be wavy) and not necessarily at the same distance from each other.

Paper strip bookmark

The bookmark is woven in exactly the same way as the rug, only on a rectangular base. The size of the base and the number of strips are optional.

How to weave a bookmark from strips of paper


If you used thick double-sided paper for the bookmark, the bookmark is ready. If not, then glue a paper or cardboard rectangle of the same size as the base to the back side. Or make two bookmarks in this way and glue them together with the right sides facing out.

I suggest looking at other articles about bookstores.
