Corrugated paper and cardboard applications

Corrugated paper and cardboard applications can be very diverse. Making flowers using the facing technique is quite a good option for children. It is also worth familiarizing yourself with the volumetric applications of corrugated cardboard trees with your own hands and with other ideas of application creativity.

Corrugated paper and cardboard applications for children can be very diverse. A good example would be an imitation of carnations, which can become an amazing decoration for any interior. Start by forming petals from a couple of pieces of white paper. Both large and small petals need to be prepared. Then you need to form a stem, bud, sepal and a couple of leaves at the expense of wire and corrugated paper. Their volumetric characteristics increase if these products are stretched.

But you can also make lilacs from colored corrugated paper with your own hands. The role of the cardboard sheet will be to form the basis of the future craft. Corrugated paper should be of different colors. You will definitely need a simple pencil. You don't need to take too bright cardboard, because the flowers must visually stand out against its background.

As a replacement, take special paper. Then the flowers are received like this:

1. cut the strips into squares of even shape;
2. put a square on the center of the palm;
3. the blunt edge of a pencil or writing pen is pressed against the center;
4. when the center bends, it can be assumed that the flower is ready, and it is worth moving on to the next instance.

Inflorescences are obtained by covering the traced details with glue. Each small prepared flower is glued separately. It is desirable to put them closer to each other.

Facing technique is a good alternative. It involves twisting the workpieces in a special way. The main blanks are small (with a side of 1 cm) squares. Drawn templates are used to simplify the work. Twisting is done around a rod (pencil or pen).

This craft is made using a template that can be printed on a printer. Subsequence:

1. bend the sheet in two;
2. draw a half of the stem on the fold strip;
3. 4 blanks are cut out;
4. bend them all longitudinally along the midline;
5. glue such blanks;
6. all shoots and roots are carefully glued to the base;
7. cut the structure out of paper.

To create a solid, stable trunk, you need sturdy cardboard. You can also use cardboard tubes. The rolls are cut from one edge to a depth of approximately 10 mm. Then they are folded back and coated with glue, which allows the parts to be attached to each other. The next step is making a crown and adding flowers to the tree.

All children, without exception, also like this type of applique. Important: it is necessary to select plots in advance so that they are not only interesting, but also correspond to the level of psychological development of little needlewomen.

Most often they imitate:

• cats;
• piglets;
• cows;
• foxes.

But it is possible to reproduce the appearance of not only familiar animals from the surrounding latitudes. Many people really like imitation penguins. The procedure is as follows:

1. form a black oval, which will become the body of the animal;
2. prepare an oval of a smaller size, turning into an abdomen;
3. prepare black wings resembling triangles;
4. the flippers will be brown, and the beak will be yellow, but all these details will also resemble a triangle;
5. in the end, the constituent elements are glued to the base base.
