Do-it-yourself crafts made from coffee beans are not only pleasing to the eye, but also have a pleasant smell of coffee. These little things decorate our lives, give a good mood, and improve the atmosphere in the house. The master class does not require large material costs, we will tell you how to make such crafts from coffee beans.
An interesting stand for spices A cat from coffee beans can be made in one evening. A cat decorated with coffee beans, with a garden and a fence made of ice cream sticks or medical spatulas will definitely decorate your kitchen. It can be used as a spice holder or coffee jar and napkin holder. You can make a flower stand. The composition is decorated with lavender decor. A master class with decoupage elements is not difficult. We will decorate our home with such a cute coffee-scented craft.
For work you will need:
- Cardboard.
- Ice cream sticks or medical spatulas.
- Cotton swabs.
- Threads.
- Coffee beans.
- white and brown.
- PVA glue or glue gun.
- Napkins or a printout on a laser printer of a pattern with lavender.
- Scotch tape.
First, print out, or draw by hand. Choose the size of the template yourself.
The template must be cut out and transferred to thick cardboard. Circle and cut out.
We glue the cardboard sides to the stand, and fix it around with adhesive tape on top.
We take cotton pads and apply to the product.
Then we fix, that is, we tie everything with threads.
There is another option: cut out the silhouette from dark fabric, and stick it on the workpiece. And already directly on the fabric to glue coffee beans. Choose which option you like best. It seems to us that the fabric option is simpler and faster. Then we take brown acrylic paint, and paint over the Cat before gluing the grains. We let the paint dry, and only glue coffee beans on the dried surface. If you work with a hot glue gun, then you need to glue quickly, as the glue dries quickly.
This is how the product looks from the wrong side, if there were threads, then we cut them off.
This is what it looks like from the front side. A bit like a front garden.
We make a napkin holder out of cardboard, securing the edges with tape. Then we decorate it with decoupage - using napkins, printouts, or postcards with a lavender pattern.
We put the cover from the napkin holder on top, and glue it, securing it with tape on the sides.
It is better to cover the napkin holder with white acrylic paint, wait for the paint to dry, and then do the decoupage.
To decorate a coffee jar, you need napkins and white acrylic paint. We take a sponge and apply acrylic paint to the jar. We are waiting for complete drying.
We make decoupage with lavender napkins. Napkins or pictures can be any you like. If you have a laser printer, you are lucky, you can print any image.
Carefully remove one layer from the napkin, coat the napkins with a brush with PVA glue. That is, first we coat with glue the place where we planned to glue the drawing, and then we cover the drawing with glue on top. Here's what happens in the end.
Professionals almost always cover decoupage with varnish on top, but we think that in this case it is unnecessary.
As you can see, nothing complicated, but as a result we have an interesting decor for the kitchen.
I won’t reveal a secret if I say that original souvenirs are made from twine and coffee beans, for example, fridge magnets. You can make such a fragrant cat for yourself, or as a gift. After all, now many people collect magnets for the refrigerator, so such cats can be very expensive for someone. The master class uses various materials, and you can add something besides this, it all depends on your imagination.
For work you will need:
- Coffee beans.
- Cardboard.
- Burlap, or other cotton fabric of dark color.
- Leg-split.
- Acrylic paint brown.
- Brush or sponge.
- PVA glue.
- Scissors, paper, pencil.
- Glue gun or glue Moment.
- A piece of magnetic tape (cut from an old advertising magnet).
- Eyes ready, or homemade.
We print or draw by hand a template on a piece of paper. Transferring to cardboard. Please note that the distance between the paw and the tail is only 0.3-0.5 cm. - this is important, since in the future we will need to connect the tail and paw. We do this in order not to break the tail, because it is thin. There should be 2 cardboard parts, since we need a dense base.
We glue 2 parts of cardboard, we get a dense base.
On the inside, we glue the base to the burlap with PVA glue, first smearing the workpiece well.
It is advisable to put the workpiece under the press for a day. The burlap after gluing will become rigid and will not crumble. We cut off the excess.
We paint the front side of the product with brown paint. In the future, we will stick coffee beans on the brown side.
Let the workpiece dry.
We draw glue along the cut of the workpiece to glue the twine and hide the ugly cut of cardboard.
We glue the twine on the cut of the workpiece, slightly pulling it.
We make two turns of twine - close the cut with glue.
Glue coffee beans on the front side with a hot gun or glue Moment.
We completely close the workpiece with coffee beans.
Glue on the inside of the pieces of the magnet. As an option, you can not stick, but close the corners of the magnet with tape. Check if the magnet is holding on to the refrigerator.
We decorate the cat's face: glue the eyes, which can be made from an empty package of pills, and a pea, painted with a black marker. We put a pea in the recesses from the tablets, drop a drop of glue into the “eyes”, and glue it with white paper on top. You get wonderful eyes.
We make a cat mustache from twine, fix it with glue. Nose made of coffee beans.
We glue the eyes, tie a bow from a ribbon or lace.
What a great magnet.
It's no secret that on February 14, Valentine's Day, it is customary to give gifts that symbolize love and tenderness for our soulmate.
We will make an unusual valentine as a gift for all coffee lovers. I will tell you how to make a DIY magnet in the shape of a heart decorated with coffee beans.
For work we need:
- thick cardboard
- brown sealant or fabric (burlap)
- glue "Moment-gel" or glue gun
- magnet
- natural coffee beans
So let's get started:
First, we make a blank for the future magnet from paper and transfer it to cardboard, and then cut it out with scissors along the contour. You can immediately draw a heart on cardboard and cut it out.
Glue a magnet to the back of the cardboard blank-heart.
On the front side, I covered the workpiece with brown sealant (but you can do without it). Alternatively, the front side of the heart can be painted with paints or a fabric can be glued on, for example, burlap will look beautiful.
When the base is ready, using glue or a glue gun, we begin to glue the grains.
Please note that the grains must be glued with the flat side up!
In principle, the fragrant magnet is already ready, but ... Now the fun begins - decorating the fridge magnet with your own hands!
Anything can come in handy for decoration: dried orange, lemon slices, cinnamon sticks, star anise stars, jute rope, beads, etc.
Decorate the heart the way you like! Glue all decor elements on glue.
Now the gift magnet is ready for sure! Such a heart will bring comfort and alluring aroma of coffee beans, star anise and cinnamon sticks to your home.
I wish you great love
Mutual, pure, strong and beautiful!
To grow in your soul
And your life became happy!
Let this feeling please you
And it fills the soul with positivity!
Appreciate it and take care of yourself!
In love, be brave, kind, patient!
It will take no more than two hours to make a magnet, and the craft needs to dry for another day. At first, the souvenir smells strongly of glue, but after a couple of days, a pleasant coffee aroma returns to it.
To create a beautiful and unusual heart, you will need:
- Sheet of paper in a cage
- simple pencil
- A sheet of thick paper (you can use packing cardboard)
- Magnetic tape (approx. 3x3 cm)
- Transparent glue (for example, "Moment Crystal"
- Grain coffee - about 3 tbsp. l.
- Piece of satin ribbon (2.5x10-12 cm)
Step 1. Make a pattern and the basis of the future magnet
To make the heart proportional, make a sketch on paper. To do this, fold the notebook paper in half. Mark the intended width and height of the heart. Draw a half heart, cut it out and unfold it. Press the pattern to the cardboard, circle the outline with a simple pencil and cut it out.
Step 2. Paste the base with coffee beans
Before you start pasting the base with coffee beans, they need to be sorted into small and large. Since the coffee bean coating will be two-layer, select the best specimens for the top of the product.
Glue the outline of the product and begin to carefully place the coffee beans with the convex side up. They should lie tightly to each other, protruding slightly beyond the edges of the base. After filling the entire base, for this, apply a thick layer of glue to small areas of the cardboard blank and immediately lay out the coffee beans.
Glue the second layer of grains so that they fill the voids of the first row. On the convex side of each grain, apply literally a drop of glue and connect with the bottom layer. At the end of the work, press the product firmly against the table with the palm of your hand so that the top layer of grains evens out.
Step 3. Make a bow and decorate a heart
The texture of the coffee beans is beautiful on its own, so don't go overboard with embellishments. You can decorate a coffee heart with a simple flower or a bow.
To make a bow, cut two pieces from a satin ribbon - 8 and 3 cm long. To make the edges crumble, they need to be burned. Mark the middle of a long piece of tape. Bend the edges to the middle overlap. Make a row of stitches in the middle of the tape, pull the seam and secure the thread.
Mentally divide the smaller piece of tape into three parts along the length, bend one third of the length to the middle on the wrong side, coat with glue and press the second edge to the adhesive surface. Glue the resulting center to the base of the bow.
Glue the finished bow to the coffee heart. You can decorate the coffee beans with glitter or spray paint the surface. It is better to apply the paint with a sponge so that there are no streaks.
Step 4 Glue the Magnet
At the end of the work, glue a piece of magnetic tape or just a round flat magnet on the back of the product.

Today I bring to your attention MK for the manufacture of a coffee magnet "Kitten with a ball"
To create it, you need to draw a pattern on a piece of paper and cut it out.
Then transfer the pattern to thick cardboard
Cut out
We cover all the details with watercolor on both sides, mixing brown with black, trying to choose a shade close to coffee beans. This is necessary so that there are no gaps when gluing the grains.
While the paint dries, you can spend a physical minute with the children:
Pussy
That will rot
It will arch your back
The paw will be pulled forward -
It makes charging
Our Marquis -
Fluffy cat.
He scratches himself behind the ear,
He blinks his eyes and growls.
Marquis is fine.
Claws, hair and appetite.
We glue all parts of the cat and start decorating with coffee beans. We lay the grains with a strip up, trying to pick them up in size so that the gaps between them are minimal
Here's what happened
To create a mustache on the muzzle, we glue sisal. You can also use string
Next, from two coffee beans, turned upside down with a strip, we make cheeks. We glue them on the mustache
Glue the spout
and cover it with nail polish
Glue eyes
We attach a bow to the tail, we give a ball to the paws of the cat. I covered it with spray paint to make it brighter. The glomerulus is best planted on hot glue, it will be more reliable. If desired, the bow and ball can be decorated with sparkles, which I did.
It remains to attach the magnet to the inside with a glue gun
And the kitten is ready!
Cats may be different, but everyone has a unique coffee aroma!
Thank you for your attention!
Creative success to you!
