Gazebo - the thing absolutely necessary on any garden plot. And if you create such a construction with your own hands, then also exclusive.
There are things well-known, obvious, so deeply rooted in our consciousness or even the subconscious, that they are the first to come to mind if it comes to that or other topic. The famous "telepatic" focus is built on this: you write three words on a piece of paper: apple, nose, Pushkin. And then ask your friends without thinking to answer three questions: fruit? part of the face? poet? 99 percent that their answer coincides with you written. And now we will imagine that we were offered to call the garden building. I have no doubt that the majority will answer: gazebo!
Gazebo not only garden decorationWhich due to its size and the semantic significance often becomes its natural composition center, not only the favorite spot in the garden where the household and guests relax in the shade on a hot summer afternoon, going for afternoon tea and, of course, are so beloved in our endless conversations, which follows from the very name of the structure. It is also an opportunity to try his hand as a builder, designer, decorator - and it is possible to open new talents, which you never knew. Indeed, not all of us will be solved their own hands to build a house:such work is too professional and too demanding, and many are now looking to the frame construction rather than on the construction of the house on their own. And the gazebo - a demand? In the end, it can be dismantled at the end of the season.
There just has not happened arbors us to see! Classic wooden hexagon with a hipped roof and benches in a circle, which in the days of my childhood, going to grandma's from all over the court, but one of the options. Pergolas are stone and brick, in the form of grottoes and caves, copying famous architectural structures... They can be constructed of openwork wooden lattices and round brevnyshek from twisting driftwood and metal mesh, braided plants ... And you've met pergola entirely made of straw?
That, you see on photos, Special. It not only thatched. All parts decorated by this beautiful natural material, and it seems that it only consists of a single straw, and therefore extremely easy, vozdushnaya1. It seems, that will fly the wind, and it will crumble as straw hut pig NIF-NIF treacherous blow from Wolf in the fairy tale about three pigs. But this is only an appearance. For all its ease of such a structure, if properly constructed, very strong.
The basis of this gazebo - welded metal construction. But it is easy to imagine a similar gazebo with the basis of wooden stories and Bruusyev. The shape and the amount of it can be any, right up to a small toy house of a niff-nif piglery, which will undoubtedly have to do with children. The main thing is every detail of the design should be carefully "ukutane" straw, completely hiding the base, and linked with a durable fine wire for consolidation. So that the straw straighge will not move from the place assigned to it, drill at the heart of the opening and skip the wire through them. If the basis is wooden, it is easier to drive into it small carnations for fastening the wire.
The most difficult and responsible part of the work - roof construction. It should not be just beautiful, but also built in such a way that rainwater, riding from it, did not penetrate inside. To do this, it is crooked on the principle of the tile, a row behind next to overlapping and fixing the beams of straw, starting from the bottom edge. If you are using to cover the roof not a simple cereal straw, and long, with leaves, stems of the dried cane (it is necessary to collect it before the formation of inflorescences - buzzing), the roof will be particularly decorative, "fluffy", with hanging, pegs in the wind. They can be smoothly like on Lineberry, cut or leave "wild", lochmaty, depending on the result you want to achieve.
Paul Arbor can be left traditionally madebut I suggest, for the completeness of the effect, cover it straw matamithat make at all not difficult. Tie a straw in bundles - this time no longer wire, but a durable thread. Tightly secure them among themselves, stitching a thick needle or simply consistently connecting a row by side. Thus, using a straw or reed remaining from construction, it is easy to make tracks of any length. Cover their edges with scissors and put on the floor, back to each other. You can also bore them with each other. Put a couple of deck chairs in the gazebo - and welcome to the Nif Nif's house to enjoy the deserved rest under the silent rustle of the coated straws ...
