As a result, for his place appears a little sympathetic fool, with whom one must act something. It is permissible, of course, to uproot it, however often such a thing asks for serious physical effort. After all, the root order of the old tree remains branched and very strong. If you also do not want to dig a foundation pit, in order to get a start, it just remains to think up, like decorating a fool in the garden with your own hands.
Opinion #1 -"stump in the present day"
Naturally, the old fool will not blossom personally, but this is not likely, which for him will not be able to grow flowers. This will truly happen if you plant low one-year flowers, herbaceous or even ornamental plants for the stump. Their stay is highly ennobling and will resurrect the tree. All these flowers are very beautiful looking in a single bouquet, who, like a vase, keeps a real simple fool
In order to translate this idea into existence, should a minimum of costs. The type of stump is leveled, then in the stump we make grooves. They must exist so that the root order of your chosen plant can freely unfold. A landmark can be, for example, a flower pot.
It is permissible to simply execute one furrow in a stump, if you take a core out of it. It is not difficult to do this if we have a job with rotten hemp. From tools, we will need a saw or a chisel with a hammer. If a fool has appeared for your site against not so long ago, it is better to extract a way of burning the core. Perhaps such a fool is a pretty real adornment of your garden at the very beginning of the last spring month and on the threshold of age
In the center of the stump, a rather deep hole must be drilled, so that kerosene can be poured into it. The side view with all this should not exist less than 7 cm, so that then the removal of the core our structure remains intact. Fill the kerosene and plug the hole in the stump with a cork.
Drill a hole inside the hole to prevent water from stopping. Now we put inside the garden soil mixed with nutrient substances, after that we plant the seedlings or onions. If a lush cap of flowers appears for the stump, it does not look quite old at all and unsightly. If you are not convinced of the strength of the walls of your new flowerpot from the stump and are afraid that they may begin to crumble, they can be strengthened by a network
The most varied variants of what you are allowed to perform with your own hands from the stump for the dacha you can see in this video:

Opinion #2 - a fool like a garden setting
In order to perform from an old stump some fascinating thing, for example, a piece of furniture, you need a good tool and some abilities of similar work. However, nowadays instruments are not a question. And about the ability to talk and for no reason: without a majestic masters were once apprentices. Therefore, let's try to try. What, in the end, do you risk? Tokmo is an old stump.
Variation #1 - a fool in the role of a chair
Suppose you just tokomli tree near slept. Not bad he had a full trunk. We remove the branches, moving through the thin upper to the stronger lower ones. Now, if the trunk is in front of you, you have to deceive its markup.
If we wish to perform an armchair, the seat is more conveniently placed for a height of 40-60 cm across the ground. Let's admit, it's quite 50 cm. We put the mark with chalk for this height. However, after all, the chair still has a backrest. For it, add another 50 cm. For a height of 100 cm, we also put the mark with chalk. In accordance with this mark, and a cut will pass, who is best to perform the chainsaw. It's hard to say how the chair depicted for this photo has a natural beginning, but it specifically illustrates the result of the work described in this section
Now we will make the back of the chair. For this we need to make a horizontal cut for the seat level. In other words, where our first note is chalk. We make propyl for a depth of 2/3 of the trunk. We are sawing from the side in which the chair in the upcoming and rather turned.
In order to assemble the backrest, create a vertical cut from above before that time until we reach the preceding horizontal one. Cut out the trunk of this macaronus we remove.
The base is created, it is allowed to begin to decorative decoration. For the sake of this work we will need various adaptations through the grinding machine in front of the chisel. Everything depends on how you decide to decorate the resulting chair. In any case, this is if it's not a fool, sticking out in front of everyone for a sight, but a comfortable chair, sitting down for the seat of which, it is allowed to calm down perfectly.
Variation #2 - unparalleled table
If you made an armchair, you preferred not to leave the tree bark. Now we have to perform a garden table, the foot of which is quite personally a fool. And this time through the bark is better to get rid of. For this we can extract a chisel or a chisel. We will do it kind of more accurately: after all, we are not at all willing to spoil the tree species. For this photo it is excellent therefore, like it is necessary to nail the holders, which in the upcoming quite tolerate table top
For the lateral part of the stump, we fill two perpendicular tree trims. We fix for them pairwise perpendicularly fastened between themselves four holders. We make worktops of boards, and fasten them between ourselves with slats.
The table top is allowed to perform round. For this, it is enough to draw a circle, using for this purpose an impromptu compass made of a pencil, a rope and a nail. We drive the bait into the center of the countertop, to which the rope with a pencil for the end is tied. We outline the circle and delete everything that came out of its border. The tabletop fixed to the leg, which was once a stump, needs to be treated with special protective compounds, and for the winter it is better to cover the table
We nail the finished table-top to the holders with nails or screw screws. The finished work should certainly be impregnated with a protective substance, who will prolong its existence.
View #3 - funny songs
Variation #1 - an extraordinary statue
To make the following idea very easy. And now the impassive essence of your tree is sawed by small men, similar to greenish grasshoppers. It is not difficult for such children to perform themselves, using for this purpose wire, pieces of tin or plastic. Similar fairy-tale characters are allowed to buy in a store selling souvenirs and toys. Figures are made very accurately, and the whole composition leaves an unusual positive effect: the little men must be fixed firmly, so that they do not put out the bad weather
To the trunk these funny figures can be screwed with screws, wire or clamps. Such a comic composition is quite an ornament of your garden and will entice the respect of your friends and neighbors.
Variation #2 - imaginary fly agaric
If you think that the fly agaric from the stump is simple, then you are absolutely right. All that is needed for this is an ancient enamel or steel bowl and aerosol. The bowl should be wiped off and painted with a reddish paint from the can. Then, like it dries, for a reddish background we draw snow-white kruglyashki, exactly the same, like specks for a fly agaric. Close to the handsome fly agaric it is allowed to place other countless objects that help to resurrect the composition, to perform it completed
The stub must also be painted in white paint. It was good for him to paint a grinning muzzle. However, then quickly like the imagination will give a clue. It remains only to put on a dressed hat for a leg and frank to say that the fly agaric is drunk! Just right, there is no doubt that there is a fly agaric. It can also exist and a tender mushroom. Simple mushroom looks more elegant.
In order to finish the painting, we want to offer you at the foot of your mushroom lay out pebbles, for example, greenish color. They, like the rim of the picture, will create edging around your work. However, it's possible to do without them. These snow-white mushrooms are also made of hemp, just the opposite: the leg and the mushroom's head are carved from the wood of the stump itself and painted in the proper colors.
Variation #3 - an unnatural turtle
If a person is not deprived of imagination, even from a dry stump, he is able to perform an entire creation of art - an unnatural palace or a house, inhabited by the most unusual fairy-tale characters. Such a product can start the pride of the owner of the site, if you work on it with the soul. A beautiful Japanese-style house is complemented by a short hut designed, most likely, for the sake of a classical tea ceremony
Personally, the stump can cause the main part of the castle, for which you quite tolerate a full complementary decor. In order not to miss anything, we suggest that you perform an essay on the future construction and then follow it up.
Decorating details can exist to be cut from a piece of hardboard or plywood. To the stump, they should be attached using screws. All components must recover from the impregnation that protects them through decay. In addition, they can exist painted in an extraordinary color. Such a beautiful house with figures will be very popular with children, who, of course, at the same time will adapt it for their own authoritative games
Sometimes in the trunk of a dry tree, absolutely low through the surface of the earth, hollows, outgrowths are placed. All these details, regardless of their natural origin, are freely applied in the composition. For example, from the hollow can hang small toy stairs with funny dwarfs for them. And for the build-up it is allowed to arrange a small piano with a squirrel-pianist.
Do not forget to pay homage to the roof of the structure. For the sake of it all will fit old, leaky weather. It's just that artificial or alive plants, knocked out of a hole in the roof of such a structure, will look very presentable.
This video clip is dedicated to a variety of characters made from stumps:

Opinion #4 - decorate the fool with flowers in pots
We have already told, it seems allowed to decorate the stump with flowers that are grown in it, but to eat and other variations of such scenery. If the hemp is fairly sprig, you can hang them for the same flowers, but grown in pots. They can look very beautiful.
Even if there are no branches, a pot with a flower is allowed to be placed for a fool personally or near him, creating an extraordinary aura of flowering and continuing life. Hemp looks great as a decorative stand near the flower pots with plants, if they are well sanded, allowing the wood to show its texture. Despite the simplicity of this composition, it looks very beautiful and emphasized in a country style: for the sake of country style, it will suit like impossible impossible
However, with all this, we should not forget about the book that a tree that is located in an open area needs protection - in impregnations that will resist decay.
View #5 - garden statues
Making garden figures from stumps can be without a break, here only real artists get remarkable works of art that strike their own realism. If you are governed by the will to decorate your own part simply, then you can do an artless icon that does not require special abilities. Naturally, this beautiful deer, who serves a voice in the spring forest, is skillfully carved from the ordinary stump by a specialist of the highest level
Performing an ordinary figure from a stump is very easy. Those who as a child sculpted snowmen, can in this case apply the accumulated attempt. Hands take care of the twigs, instead of the nose and mouth, we fix knots, Eyes can be performed from the brown bottoms through plastic bottles. The pupil's occupation will play a cork through the same bottles.
All this is fixed to the hemp with screws. For the horizontal surface of the spil it is allowed to simply lay the cones through the pines that will mimic the hair. Here is a guard for the sake of the garden, which we made quickly, drunk. But such a ridiculous guard for the sake of the dacha will be able to perform any pupil, and specifically because this is such a garden statue and is appreciated
If it happened without cause, which had to cut down the whole structure of summer trees, do not be sad. This situation also has its positive side. But you now have a huge number of hemp, located close to the well-wisher through a friend. And this is perfectly good. Make them a fabulous country for their own children, realizing for practice all the information that you have already received in this article.
This is a pretty simple and wonderful room for the sake of games. Before you have to eat a separate stump through the bark. For this you will need a chisel and a hammer. The chisel should intervene between the bark and the tree trunk, then gently knock with a hammer in accordance with it. The skin is quite retreating through the trunk and soon the fool will lose it all. Now it can be painstakingly sanded, using for this purpose sandpaper with an average grain. Such an owl simple could desire to start a companion of Baba Yaga herself and settle in her hut, flying out of her at times to hunt

The wood dust formed during the work must be removed with a damp cloth. The tree prepared by such a macaroni should be treated with an antiseptic, who will protect it through decay.
Now a fool is allowed to start painting. Choose a tremendous fool to transform it into a virtual building of Baba Yaga. Take the chalk and note the position of the future windows and doors of the grandmother's hut. Deepening in wood for doors and windows is allowed to perform using a chisel and a hammer.
