Ice balls with his hands
Multicolored ice balls can serve as an excellent material for any art object. They can simply scatter in the garden or in the yard of the kindergarten, or to build or decorate any design, make snowmen (especially if you freeze water in rubber gloves), etc. We stopped at the construction of multi-colored pyramid from 400 ice balls.
A placement of our winter art object we have chosen the city park. Firstly, there are more kids, and secondly a number of Sports House where you can take water for balls. Negotiations with the heads of the organizations - they gladly agreed to help us.
Where did the idea? Surely, many times were met with the leadership in manufacturing ice balls with the addition of dyes.

According to the "recipe" everything goes easy. In fact, it was much more difficult. But as always. Firstly, it never specified how much time the ball is frozen? How much water is necessary to pour the better tint? It turned out, however, and funny sounds corny, but the ball is filled with water only under pressure - to go out with a funnel and "poltorashka" fail. It remains only to tap or water hose. Well, a number of subtleties that we encountered in the course.
For example the size - to freeze the ball high volume (3-4 liters) is not obtained. When t -20 per night freezes a layer of 5-6 centimeters. Inside - water. She also begins to freeze, but later, and bursting ice "shell" - the ball bursts. The mistake was to bury the ball into the snow - in a "house", he almost never freezes.
Here is an example of the ball in the amount of 3 liters, which spent the night under the snow. In principle, we get a very "working" of the hemisphere - can be used as a vase for a Christmas tree branches, or to turn the valley bottom, and underneath a lamp post - will be beautiful.
Through trial and error, we decided to stay on the balls the size of 10 * 10 - 15 * 15 cm. In the freezer are frozen night.
So, we share our way of manufacturing of ice balls.
1. First prepare a concentrate of gouaches - 1 bank on the 1, 5 liters.
2. Through the funnel, pour the concentrate into a ball "to the brim". You can use food coloring, in case it is likely that someone decides to try the giant lollipops taste. We took ordinary bulbs. You can freeze the balls in the shape of Mickey Mouse, different animals, or rubber gloves (personally I froze the glove from the package of hair dye - Get funny hand, which can be attached to the wet snow to the snowman).
3. Then we put on the faucet and "inflate". Together handier one pinches the ball to the crane, the second turns on / off the water. Knotted ball without ropes and other things - of the loop of the neck (or as it's called)
4. At first, we wanted to fill the balloons on the street, connecting to the crane houses sport and withdrawing the hose on the street - but the hose was frozen, we have a half hour it was stripped, then decided to fill directly into the toilet and place to carry on a wheelbarrow. So more economical in terms of water flow, well and comfortably warm rather than cold at -25.
5. Next, the most "delicate" stage - frost. Of course, the easiest way to stick in the freezer overnight. But where to find the freezer for 400 balls? And then lead them to the place of street art?
6. Therefore froze right in the park, expanding the balls in the snow. We try not to greatly deepen and positioned so that the balls do not touch each other.

7. fills balls for two hours. During this time, the first batch of crusted. We leave for another 2 hours. When they came - found that the top balls freeze perfectly, but the bottom, where they come in contact with snow - water. Conclusion - the balls faster and better chilled, they must be turned over in a few hours, and even better to minimize the area of contact with the snow.
Turning all the balls we decided to leave them at night, hiding from the kids snow.
However, this did not save - a few young vandals remember where they saw the day multicolored carpet, digging balls started throwing them. The benefit of the employees of the park time they drove.
8. Most of the balls still survived. The next day they began to dig, and by holding a little frost, remove the "odezhku." Rubber is removed very easily - just tore her with a knife, keys or a stick. Some balloons never were frozen until the end - just filmed "odezhku" as they poured out of the water.

9. obtained balls can do anything. It's like a self-contained fine jewelry, and a great building material. We chose to build the pyramids.
The first level of anchoring the snow - so as not leaving.
Each level is watered - or design are leaving due to the unevenness of balls.
It is a pity that the hand was not a normal camera - shot phone. But not every camera, but rather a photographer, will give a magical play of reflections lamps and garlands on the faces of the ice balls. And what a beauty day.
It is only then we lit up the idea that the skeleton of the pyramid could be done out of the snow, just outside placing balls. So the pyramid would be turned over 5 times. Well, that's for next year.
