• PVA glue;
• glue moment;
• tweezers;
• needle or toothpick;
• pencil;
• gouache (if it is necessary to paint parts);
• spray varnish;
• frame for painting.

It is recommended to use thick cardboard for the base so that the base does not get wet or deteriorate during the manufacturing process.

Preparation of materials

To start working on a painting, prepare materials for work. The grains need to be sorted and all impurities removed. If your painting will use a color other than the color of the cereal, it will need to be painted. Pour the grain of your choice into the bowl and add paint. Mix thoroughly, making sure it colors evenly. Pour the cereal onto paper, spread it out and let it dry.

In general, the process can be divided into several stages

Preparing the basis for the painting and materials

A drawing is first applied to the selected cardboard, plywood or other base using a simple pencil. To do this, you can use carbon paper. The outline of the sketch should be neat, even, barely noticeable and outlined with a thin line. Then you need to decide on the materials. Select the desired grains, determine the quantity and color. If necessary, the grains are colored with paint. When choosing the color of grains, you need to follow one rule - do not choose materials that are similar in color for placement in adjacent areas.

Coloring of grains

The dyeing process is not complicated, but it requires certain manipulations. The selected grain, most often rice, is placed in a container. Then add a few drops of paint to it and mix. Then the material is laid out on film and stirred periodically so that the grains do not stick together. After complete drying, you can use them.

Laying out the grains

Gradually, the pattern is filled with grains of the desired color, placing them on the glue with tweezers. To ensure that the grains lie flat, they can be straightened with a needle. After completing the creation of the design, the grains are allowed to dry and varnished using an aerosol.

Particularly popular are paintings with patterns or ornaments, as well as paintings reflecting simple geometric shapes. The finished painting needs to be placed in a frame and you can decorate the interior and be sure to take a photo of the cereal painting as a keepsake.

Creativity with children

Prepare a craft with your child for kindergarten or school. First, think and imagine what your future painting will be like. You should not use intricate plots or complex drawings in creative work with children. Give your child the opportunity to express himself, his imagination and make a picture with his own hands.

To begin, draw a picture of the painting onto the cardboard, try to draw it as inconspicuously as possible so that the outline of the pencil is not visible in your work.

Prepare different types of cereals and pour them into different bowls.

Start creating the painting. To get started, you need to use a brush to paint over the area that you want to fill with cereal. Now carefully sprinkle it with cereal; if the cereal is large (peas or lentils), then you need to spread it grain by grain with tweezers.

• Don't limit your imagination, improvise with different cereals, pasta or coffee.

After completing the painting, let it dry thoroughly and then spray coat it with varnish. Place the resulting picture in a frame and hang it on the wall.

Panel "Mill" made of pasta

There is probably a bag of pasta in every kitchen. But from them you can prepare not only Bolognese pasta, but also a wonderful interior decoration.

To make the panel, prepare:

• base made of thick cardboard;
• PVA glue or Moment;
• cereals of different types;
• peas;
• pasta of various shapes;
• a piece of foam rubber.

Draw a picture on the base.

Think about what your drawing will be like, try not to depict too small details, as it will be difficult to decorate them with grains.

Start working by decorating the background of the painting. Using a brush, cover the background with PVA glue and sprinkle with semolina. Use a sponge to press the semolina onto the panel so that the cereal sticks.

You can start decorating the tree and the mill. Coat the tree trunk with glue and place the cereal on it, decorate the crown with twisted pasta.

Make the blades from long pasta and cover the building with pea halves.

Make trails of their lentils or beans. Let the painting dry, then frame it.

For the Christmas tree you will need a plastic tube from a pen. It needs to be covered in a circle with plasticine, and then the seeds should be stuck on the plasticine as needles.

To create a ball you will need a foam base. Using glue, you need to place seeds on it like scales.

Don’t forget about the cord so that you can hang the finished decorative ball on the Christmas tree. After it is completely covered with scales, it will be necessary to paint the scales, if already colored seeds were not used.

Frame design

From cereals you can make not only a painting or a panel. Decorate a photo frame or picture with coffee beans or other grains, and it will harmoniously fit into the interior of any room in your home.

To decorate the frame you will need:

• frame,
• glue;
• cereals and or coffee beans that have been previously cleaned and prepared.

Before you start, decide how you want to design the frame. In a simplified version, just stick on the same grains and let dry.

You can glue coffee beans and various cereals to the base in a chaotic manner, or decorate each side with one type of cereal.

Show your imagination, and the result will not take long to arrive.

Butterfly and dragonfly

To create a panel we need:

• frame;
• base (cardboard);
• fabric or canvas;
• tweezers;
• glue;
• brush;
• coriander or buckwheat;
• white and brown rice;
• dye;
• dried flowers and herbs for decoration.

Let's start making:

1. Wrap the base in canvas and secure on the wrong side;
2. Apply the outline of the design to the fabric;
3. Using a thin brush, apply a layer of glue to the outline of the design and, using tweezers, lay out coriander or buckwheat;
4. Using the same principle, lay out the outline of insect wings, fill in the space of the wings and veins;
5. Next, let's decorate the painting. Glue dried flowers and herbs in a chaotic manner.
6. To make the picture sparkle with colors, paint the butterfly in bright colors. Apply paint to the cereal with a thin brush and let dry.

To make paintings from cereals, you do not need intricate and expensive materials. Be patient, use your imagination, and all the materials for creativity will be in the kitchen!
