To children of younger age it is possible to create hand-made articles from bags for dust in the form of animals.
To create a rabbit, you need to prepare the materials:
- two rings of cardboard with a slot inside;
- scissors;
- plastic bags;
- dense thread;
- three beads - eyes and nose.
- We prepare pom-poms. First we make long strips of a plastic bag, bind them together. From the cardboard we cut out two circles with a slot inside.
- We start wrapping cardboard rings in a circle.
- If the strip is finished, then cut off at the root of the ring.
- We put the next strip.
- We wind the strips in a circle until the moment when the ring of cardboard is completely closed.
- We cut off the resulting blank with scissors.
- Between the two rings stretch a strong thread, tighten.
- Remove the cardboard circles, straighten out the resulting pompom.
- We do likewise the second pompon.
- The remaining ends of the threads from both pompoms are connected together. It turned out the head and torso.
- We make the ears of a rabbit of a strip no wider than 3 cm in the following way: twist two times in the middle of the strip.
- Fold the strip in half and straighten it.
- We link just below the middle.
- Glue ears, beads-eyes and nose.
- From small pompons we make paws and legs, we glue. Rabbit is ready.
