What kind of crafts can you make from cabbage?

A great variety of interesting crafts can be made from autumn and summer natural materials and vegetables. For example, cabbage makes very cute animals. They are not very difficult to make, so children are happy to work with such natural elements. In this article, we will figure out what interesting crafts you can make with your own hands from ordinary cabbage.

A child can make a very cute and original bunny from white cabbage. To make such a craft really cute and neat, you must use exclusively fresh vegetables that do not have wormholes. In addition, cabbage should never be stale or withering. If you do not adhere to these simple conditions, the craft will not be attractive.

It is recommended to use white cabbage to create a cute bunny, although for other crafts it is quite possible to use Peking, Brussels sprouts, broccoli and even kohlrabi.

It is better to choose a head of cabbage, the leaves of which fit as tightly as possible.... Based on the specific type of craft, you may also need 2-3 more cabbage leaves.

To make a lovely bunny, you need to prepare not only white cabbage, but also other components, such as:

• zucchini (it is recommended to pick up lighter ones);
• fresh carrots;
• red bell pepper;
• beautiful ribbon for decoration;
• any flowers, for example, chamomile, asters and so on;
• several toothpicks;
• plasticine mass.

We will analyze the step-by-step instructions on how to properly craft a funny forest animal from cabbage.

• First you need cut 2 zucchini lengthways.
• Further, using toothpicks hold 2 small cabbage heads together... This will form the head and body of the original hare.
• You should take the second half from the second cut zucchini. This part is cut again, but not along, but across. Thus, it will turn out to make ears and legs for a hare.
• A plasticine mass is taken. The eyes and nose of a cabbage animal are formed from it.
• You need to take red bell pepper... A piece is cut off from it, which will play the role of a hare's mouth.
• All prepared components are fixed on the hare's head, thus making out a pretty face.
• With the help of toothpicks, short pieces of zucchini are attached. This should be done where the upper legs and ears should be located. Longer pieces of vegetable are used as the lower limbs of the animal.
• A beautiful bow made of ribbon is fixed on the cabbage bunny's neck... This will be a very nice decor for an original craft.
• Cool antennae will come out of the toothpicks.
• If there is a desire, on the head of a hare you can fasten a few flowers to hide the attachment areas with ears.
• Since the bunny cannot do without fresh carrots, it is fixed with a toothpick.

From white cabbage, it will be possible to make not only a cute bunny, but also a cute pig. It will turn out to be no less simple to manufacture, so even the youngest craftsmen can easily make it.

To make an original pig, you need the following components:

• bell pepper (it is better to use yellow);
• fresh white cabbage;
• toothpicks;
• high-quality plasticine;
• a white sheet of paper that will be used as a lining;

Consider a detailed do-it-yourself workshop on modeling an attractive cabbage pig.

• First, you should prepare the ears for the future pig.... For these purposes, Bulgarian pepper is taken. The tip is cut off from it (about 3-4 centimeters of cut is enough). The cut off tip is turned over with the narrowed part up, and then cut exactly in half. As a result, you get 2 triangular parts that imitate the ears of a piglet.
• Ready ears can be immediately fixed on the head of cabbage... Use toothpicks for fasteners.
• A head of cabbage should be put on a roll of scotch tapeto keep it stable.
• At the next stage, you will need to use plasticine mass.... From a black block, you need to tear off a couple of pieces and roll small balls out of them. These will be the eyes of the pig. And also a red plastic material is needed. A nose will be made from it. To better hold the plasticine components on the head of cabbage, you should insert toothpicks into the right places in advance.
• All prepared components must be fixed on the pig's face. It should be borne in mind that initially it is advisable to place the head of cabbage in such a way that the place of its root is used as an outstanding patch to which red plasticine balls will be attached.
• When all the elements of the pig's face are attached in their places, the work can be considered complete. The result should be a very cute cabbage pig with perky sharp ears.
