Children love to make fox-themed appliques. However, needlework techniques may vary. In the material of this article, we will talk about different ways of doing crafts.
How to make from colored paper?
The options for creating the Fox applique are varied.
From geometric shapes
The easiest way to make a chanterelle is from triangles.... A large triangle is drawn for the body, medium ones for the muzzle and tail, and small ones for the ears. They are cut out of paper, then glued onto a paper base.
Looks good fox from circles. For its implementation, use one-sided colored paper. The body is made of two parts-circles: a white smaller one and an orange larger one. The tail is made semicircular or arched.
A circle is cut out for the muzzle, then it is folded on both sides, forming a triangle. Ears, nose and paws are made from small circles. Eyes can be painted or glued. Beads, buttons, sequins are suitable as them.
From the palms
Crafts for toddlers can be quite simple. For example, it looks unusual handprints applique. You can do it in different ways.
For example, cut out of colored paper. And also palms can be printed on paper, dipped in paint, then cut out. The body of an animal is obtained from the palms. Faces and eyes are made from circles.
Volumetric look beautiful palm appliques... To complete them, take crepe paper, cut out several layers at once, then glue and slightly crumple. The more layers, the fluffier the fox coat is.
Torn paper
Even kids can do such crafts. For work, they take thin colored paper, coloring and glue. The paper is cut into small squares or torn into pieces.Then they are glued to the picture, trying not to leave empty spaces.
Torn paper can be crumpled into paper balls. The principle of operation remains the same: the prepared balls are glued onto paper. Suitable types of glue are PVA and stationery.
Volumetric
To make such beauty, you need to prepare many small paper squares.... Plain crepe paper in different tones will do. The pieces are glued onto plasticine or PVA glue, rolled up with a corner. The craft turns out to be voluminous, however, it requires a lot of perseverance.
Made from natural materials
In the fall, you can make crafts from leaves... This application is easy to perform. The work uses golden maple leaves, as well as small sharp leaves for the ears and nose. The eyes are cut out of paper.
Leaves of different shapes can be used to make a torso, tail, muzzle and ears. Interesting feet are obtained from maple seeds. To prevent the leaves from curling up the next day, it is better to use dry foliage in your work.
You can make an applique using cereals. For example, rice, millet, lentils, pearl barley, and wheat are often glued to the coloring. Someone creates crafts using colored sand.
The simplest craft with cereals is an applique with semolina. To complete it, you need colored cardboard, paint, glue and cereals. A chanterelle and a background are painted on cardboard (for example, Christmas trees, a meadow). The figures are filled with glue, then semolina is poured onto the surface. When it dries, paint the figure of the fox.
More ideas
Often, unusual materials are used to create an applique on the Fox theme. For example, white fur is made with cotton wool or cotton pads. For the eyes, take ready-made eyes with pupils, which are sold in needlework stores.
A beautiful volumetric craft applique can be made from disposable paper plates. To do this, they are painted orange. Then cut: half of the plate will be the body, the narrow triangular part will be the muzzle.
For the ears, cut off small triangles. For the paws - narrow stripes, for the tail - a small semicircle. After the main details are glued, a "fluff" is cut out of plain paper and the face is decorated. For the nose, you can use a regular black button or a small pompom.
An interesting applique idea is the use of cupcake cups, white and colored paper. The glasses are straightened until circles are obtained. Then a semicircular body is made from one. From the other, a sharp fox muzzle is formed. A fur coat is made of white paper, paws and a tail are made of orange paper.
School-age children can make crafts using the quilling technique... To do this, buy special kits or cut thin strips on their own to the length of A4 sheet. Then they are twisted and given the desired shape.
It can be elongated, rounded, pointed or other elements. If you need to make the same fragments, use a special ruler with circles of different diameters. After preparation, the elements are glued with PVA glue to the previously made flat application.
You can make a beautiful applique using self-adhesive paper... It can be plain, foil and velvet. If you combine self-adhesive paper with ordinary paper, you can make a volumetric applique.
For example, the tail of a fox made of paper with an accordion will look beautiful. By this principle, you can make the torso and muzzle. The easiest way to fix such elements is with a stapler. After that, the parts are glued to cardboard.
