Many more than once were convinced of Fengshui's actions, and the handicraft, attracting wealth to the house, is always a pleasant surprise.
What it is?
Mascot Money Tree is not just a beautiful subject of the interior. It has the strongest energy and is considered a symbol of wealth and success.
Many pose a tree shape on the office desk - it helps to lure customers, and setting the craft of the house, you can expect financial well-being in the family.
According to the principles of the ancient Chinese art, Fengshui, each thing has a magical force, and if installing it in the right place, it will start working. So, for the money tree, the so-called corner of wealth is selected, it is located on the south-eastern side. Accordingly, it is here that you need to put a symbol of material success. It is desirable to install the figure in the corresponding zone in the hallway, it is here that the way is best opened by financial flows. To enhance the effect it is recommended to put a large paper banknote under the tree.
Views
There are several varieties of money trees made by different technologies.
Coin tree. It is a figurine in the form of a tree, on the branches of which iron coins hang instead of leaves. Usually for this, souvenir money with slots in the middle are used.
From other materials. If it did not turn out to be the right amount of copper, then you can "hang" on the tree other elements, such as pistachio or sequins shell. In any case, the money must be the component of this exhibit, and therefore coins can be scattered under the cradle.
Panel. In this case, an integer picture is laid out of iron coins. Mediques are glued or sewn. This technology is very popular. The composition can be hung in the apartment, in the office or indoors where the Cassa organization is located.
From bill. A simpler version of the crafts, although it is impossible to call it economical, since real paper banknotes are used more often for manufacture. If there were no original bills to create a monetary symbol, then crafts from the souvenir shop can also be used, but in this case, to enhance the energy, at least one real bill can be put under the sample. A tree from paper money is also a very pretty and unusual souvenir.
Female. This is the name of the indoor plant, which is considered monetary. Tolstanka can be bought in any flower shop, and when it is growing, you should raise several coins on her stems for the magic effect.

Stages of manufacture
Nowadays, many are so passionate about the ideas of creating decorative items for Fengsui that art institutions even offer master classes for everyone. Watch how a unique symbol is created and repeat actions is very useful, because the master will be able to prompt, notice the mistakes will help in practice. If there is no possibility to visit the occupation, then we offer two step-by-step instructions for the manufacture of souvenir with your own hands.
Steps to create panels.
Disassemble the photo frame, pull out the plywood, put on the basis (wallpaper), circle a pencil and cut out the workpiece. On the outer side of the plywood glue the carved material. After drying, draw on a sheet of a tree shape.
Connect the water in the bowl and PVA glue in the ratio 1: 1. Cut the strips from the prepared napkins, slightly dip each in the previously obtained adhesive mixture, twist the dense tubes and wait for drying. If you get marks of different thickness, then this is normal, in the future they will need to design crowns and branches.
Apply the glue to the depicted tree in the crown zone, apply the filter tubes from the napkins, design the crown, branches, roots according to the drawn scheme.
Prepare alcohol or detergent, treat them coins. This procedure degreases rail money so that they stick more reliably. Stick coins to the branches formed earlier.
Snaw the whole composition with black paint from the canister. After drying from above, you can apply a gold color. Next, with the help of a sponge, you should go through the panel of silver paint. We again wait for drying.
Dry sponge dip in golden color, apply paint on coins and grow. It is still wet from the paint surface of the coin coins with glitter. Leave the cloth to complete drying.
Insert the picture in the frame and hang in the appropriate place.
For the manufacture of bulk design, follow these actions.
Tie a copper wire segment to coins. Suitable diameter - 0.3 mm.
While the segments with each other five pieces - it turns out the branches of the future tree.
In order for the thin wire to hold heavy coins, use additional millimeter wire. Fold it twice, attach to the base of the branch and wrap the connection area of the FMU tape. It needs to be done with all branches.
Complete the overall trunk from the branches, while holding all the ribbon. From the segments of the wire connate the trunk.
In the container, fall asleep the gypsum mixture, lower the trunk there and strengthen the figure to froze the gypsum.
While the gypsum is seized, prepare the composition from the alabastra, plaster and cement, dilute the resulting compound of PVA glue dissolved in water. When the gypsum mixture will freeze (usually it takes half an hour), get a tree and apply the substance obtained above on the trunk, make a groove.
Color the figurine with aerosol paints, acrylic varnish or sparkles in your favorite colors. For example, golden, bronze, silver shades are very solid.
The master class is presented in the following video:
Interesting ideas
The above presented the most popular options for making a monetary symbol, but there are even more original and unusual examples.
You can give a natural color. For the summer option, the coins are painted with green paint, and the trunk is brown. You can create a winter landscape: for this, the keys are sprayed with white paint - this technique will create a snow, lightweight, gentle effect.
With the use of coins you can construct a New Year tree. To do this, we turn the segments of cardboard in the form of cones, we glue each of them with iron money and decorated with cotton balls. The resulting figure will attract wealth in the coming year.
Another original idea is a tree with a round crown. Plue with coins a small foam ball in several layers, leave a place for the future trunk. Plug the usual branch with decorative ribbons, insert it into the hole left in the bowl, pre-pushing the hole in the thightener, secure glue. In a beautifully decorated cup, pour the mixture of sand, alabaster and water, fix the design vertically earlier.
Decorate the composition: for this you can use paint, sparkles, beads, beads, sequins and any other materials for the decor.
- Easy and fast way to make a money tree yourself - to present it schematically. You can simply cover the sheet of paper with glue, scatter coins on it, depicting the foliage, wait for drying, put the panel under the frame, tightly pressed to the glass, and hang on the wall. Such an instance has no less energy strength than more complex options.
From the coins you can embroider a picture. The trunk and branches are created by embroidery, and decorative coins with holes are sewn to the canvas as leaves.
At the request of the author, a tree can be created from beads, sequins, glitter and other materials.
