Children's crafts made of plasticine for the New Year: photo master-class
Crafts made of plasticine can be made flat, and then they should be attached to cardboard or immediately "sculpted" on cardboard, as an application, or done voluminous, in the form of a figurine.
In general, in order for the figure to be stable, init is accepted to add something (something like a skeleton), but in children's handicrafts such complexities are not necessary; the skeleton is required only if it is the legs of an animal or a person or the leg of a flower - that is, as on this part is really the whole weight of the figure.
New Year's articles do not particularly differfrom usual, the theme is preserved, although the images of snowmen, "winter" animals and folkloric characters (Father Frost, for example) dominate, but in any case it is not pleasant for the holiday to receive as a gift from the child a pretty plasticine figure that he made with his own hands ? And they can be hung on a Christmas tree or decorate them with shelves.
For any clay craft, you will need a set ofplasticine (choose, of course, the most secure in the composition of plasticine and do not buy cheap Chinese), dosochka or table with an oilcloth on which the child will sculpt, and, in the event that the child is not very small, you can connect special tools for modeling ( they are sold in any hobby store or stationery, made of plastic and designed to help apply patterns to plasticine or fashion fine details, such as the eyes.
They, however, can be replaced with toothpicks,chopsticks or other household items). Flat figures on the cardboard - for example, a scene in the winter forest - can serve as a good outside of the New Year's postcard.
Crafts for the New Year from plasticine: flowers
Flowers consist of four parts, for whichwill require three colors of plasticine at least: the stem and leaves (most likely green), the core and petals. First, a stalk and leaves are molded: a toothpick or a match is wrapped around the clay, and a leaf (usually two of them) is formed by simply plucking the thumb and index finger on a small piece of plasticine: it must be stretched and flattened.
The leaves are attached to the stem. Just like leaves, petals are made, in any quantity, and attached to the end of the stem just below the very end. The end is closed by the core - a small ball of plasticine. Do not limit children's fantasies about color: they are often more interested in making a flower with, for example, a purple stalk and colorful leaves.
Crafts for the new year from plasticine animals
Most animals from plasticine havethe same structure: elongated head and elongated body, delivered vertically or horizontally, depending on how the animal sits. In order for the figurine to stand, you will definitely need 4 matches or toothpicks, and a sitting or lying animal can be done without a skeleton.
The ears of a hare, too, is better to put on matches. The most popular animals for New Year's crafts are a hare, a bear, a wolf and a fox. Of birds in the same period, the crow is especially loved, as a character from cartoons related to the winter. But it can be a fantastic winter animal, invented on the spot.
Crafts for the New Year from plasticine: man
The most complex figure. Man is molded from six parts - head, arms and legs and a large, oblong body. In the legs you need to insert matches or, better, toothpicks, and so that they extend through the body to the head, otherwise the figure will stand unevenly. The clothes of the little man are molded directly on it - just add layers of thinly rolled plasticine. You can make him Santa Claus or Snow Maiden.
