Well, let's plunge into piggy joy and piggy pleasure. A pleasure that we will make with our OWN HANDS.

Crafts for the New Year

PIGGY BANK.

A DIY piggy bank is a good gift for the Year of the Pig. Here are easy ways to make a beautiful piggy bank from one plastic bottle.

The master class in the photo below shows the whole process. In addition to the bottle, you will need a piece of adhesive film (for wrapping the piggy bank's belly) and ears made of paper or pink fleece or felt. Four bottle caps will become pig legs.

Your piggy banks can be large in size - from bottles of 5-liter liquids. This craft gift is suitable for those who plan to save money for a big goal.

You can make a piggy bank craft from paper (it is better to choose high-thickness paper or pink cardboard).

The craft is made using the same pattern as a paper cube. Just glue the tail, ears and heel onto the cube (in order for the heel to be pushed forward, you need to glue a piece of thick cardboard or a paper accordion spring under it).

Here is a diagram of a cube for such a craft. Assembly is normal using paper glue.

You can make large piggy banks - and then the legs for the pig will be toilet paper rolls, and the snouts will be lids from cans.

Volumetric craft PIG

FROM CORRUGATED CARDBOARD.

Corrugated cardboard for crafts is sold in the same place where regular cardboard school kits are sold. I had never bought it for my daughter before because I didn’t understand why it was needed.

But now I have discovered the world of VOLUMEROUS crafts made from such embossed cardboard, which rolls perfectly and forms any convex shape.

Crafts made from such cardboard come out very quickly - they are large, bright and very beautiful - even if you take them to an exhibition.

Paper pig

CHILDREN'S CRAFTS.

Children love pigs very much. They love piglets. More than other characters.

The simplest genre of Pig paper crafts is APPLICATION on cardboard. Bright paper and a thick cardboard base make this craft colorful and durable.

If you put such pig figurines on a wooden skewer, you will get a figurine for a puppet theater - children hide under the table and hold their characters by the sticks - for the New Year's holiday you can act out a scene HOW THE PIG FOUND SANTA CLAUS... "How the pig celebrated the New Year."

You can decorate New Year's cards with pig appliqué.

One of the simplest PIGS crafts is a pig made from a toilet paper roll. Everything here is very obvious and completely clear how to do it.

Simple and quick applications for children are cardboard circles with elements of a pig's face. Such crafts can be placed on legs made of clothespins or wine corks.

In the older group of kindergarten, children already know how to fold PAPER SPRINGS and therefore you can make such a paper pig with children 5-6 years old. A simple craft just right for children's hands.

Here is another pig, the base of which is a BALL made of strips of paper. All strips are glued together into a spherical shape and an applique of a paper pig's head is glued on top.

You can make wonderful pig crafts from disposable paper plates. Plastic plates are also suitable if you paint them with gouache mixed with liquid soap (soap helps the gouache stick to slippery plastic).

You can make an ENVELOPE CRAFTS in the shape of a pig. It’s very nice to receive such a New Year’s Greeting hidden in the hands of a pig. To get into the New Year's mood of the craft, add a green Christmas tree to it, or stick a red and white Santa Claus hat on the pig's head.


You can come up with your own New Year's Pig CARD. And create your own unique design.

Craft PIG from PAPIER-MACHE.

Papier mache is a technique where a ball is covered with newspaper soaked in PVA glue and then the dried paper crust on the ball is PAINTED WITH GOUACHA and the color is fixed with hairspray.

Here's how in the photo below we dip pieces of newspaper into a bowl of glue and put them SOMEWHERE ON THE BALL.

Before covering the ball with glue newspaper, you need to CHANGE the shape of the ball by adding other parts of the pig to it - the snout, legs and ears. Then we cover all these elements and the ball itself with newspaper, then dry it, then paint it, dry the paint and spray it dry with hairspray so that it shines and becomes bright and does not stain your hands.

You can start by trying your hand at TINY BALLOONS - these mini birthday balloons or water bombs are used. And we will make a tiny pig, You can use toilet paper or paper napkins instead of newspaper.

As you understand, the protruding parts of the future pig’s body can be made FROM ANY MATERIAL - egg cassettes, jar lids, paper coffee cups, toilet paper rolls.

And you can DO WITHOUT THE BALL... just do it Papier mache DOUGH. Knead the paper dough and use your hands to form a pig of any shape (as in the photo below).

Easy paper dough recipe- toilet paper + water... squeeze through gauze or mosquito net, add PVA glue to taste to make it stick. And we make figures with our hands. Some people add flour, others add air putty without grains like dust. Try adding, sculpting, creating. This is SO exciting!!!

Your children will be especially stunned - when for the first time in my life I made a tiny Santa Claus (crooked, inarticulate in shape), the child was happy... My daughter waited until we went to the cinema and painted him with gouache herself... and now the gouache did a miracle - GRANDFATHER CLAUS turned out to be recognizable and clear.

I made the dough for Santa Claus from an EGG PACKAGING - I soaked the cardboard packaging in boiling water... then squeezed it through a sieve (they say it’s easier to squeeze it through a piece of mosquito net)... and then randomly poured more starch into it... it was slimy... I had to rinse the starch with water. And it still turned out wonderful. Now it is our family heirloom.

PACKAGING-PIG

How to make a box with a pig.

Your New Year's gifts in 2019 can be placed in boxes in the form of PIGTS. This New Year, placing a pig under the Christmas tree is a sign of happiness and prosperity. Let's see what options for gift wrapping and boxes with a pig you can make with your own hands.

But we push simple pig boxes - which are folded CROSS ON CROSS... and the flaps of the inner layer - up through the slot-slot in the upper overlap of the SIDE FLAPS of the packaging.


You can also make it in the shape of a pig solid plywood box... and put a valuable gift in it. Such a box will subsequently become part of the interior in a country house or even in an apartment, in a children's room.

And by the way, if you like to make wood - sawing with a jigsaw and gluing, then this craft for your dacha will suit you.

Craft PIG

AS A USEFUL GIFT.

Just piggy toys, it's beautiful and cute. But we want our New Year’s gift to be used and enjoyed. Therefore, we will make USEFUL gifts in the form of pigs and pigs.

If you have just learned how to hold a needle and thread, then this simple PIG craft is suitable for you - a phone case made of felt or fleece.


In the same way, you can sew a PENALTY craft. We sew a rectangular cover from any fabric (preferably fleece or felt) and sew a zipper into it.

If you know how to make things that are complex in sewing, then try making a pencil case with rigid stitching of the seam edges (when braid is sewn into the edge seams - it is visible in the photo), and also, to give the pencil case a clear shape, frame plates made of plastic or can be inserted into it cardboard We see such a rigid pencil case in the photo below.

Also, useful crafts PENALTY CASES and COVERS can be crocheted with pink threads and then knitted muzzle appliqués can be sewn on them and ears can be embroidered with threads of a brighter color.

And if you want to make a gift for the youngest member of the family, then he will be delighted with a useful educational mat. You can combine different types of fabrics in the rug (so that the child can analyze the fabric by touch, you can sew squeakers inside the rug, for example, inside the snout (flat squeakers are sold in the store for dogs and cats). Crispy pieces of cellophane can be sewn into the ears, such dense varnished cellophane, in The kind that clothes are packaged in stores will have a pleasant crunch - children like it.

You can also give a child a gift in the Year of the Pig - knitted hats with Pigs - crocheted or knitted.

The baby will also love the crocheted PIG TOY. Piglet toys with pink spots and button eyes.

The piglet for such a knitted pig can be made from plastic (fimo clay), dried in the oven and glued to the pig’s face.

Pig craft

USEFUL IN HOUSEKEEPING.

In addition to craft toys in the shape of a pig, you can make USEFUL things for your home by designing them in the shape of a pig or a cute pig.

Here is an idea for a PIG-PINCUSHION, which is made from felt using the felting technique. It's very simple by pouring warm soapy water into a bowl., take a ball of pink wool in your hands, wet it in a bowl and roll the ball in your hands under soapy water - roll until it hardens, decreasing and decreasing in size. This way we will get a round body of the pig. Using the same soapy hand method, we sculpt the ears, snout and legs of the pig and assemble the needle bed craft. See how simple it is?

You can sew a pincushion from soft fleece or thin felt. You can take the same CUBE shape as a basis. The pattern is as in the diagram above (where we made a square piggy bank). The ears are sewn in when we sew the top seams (right and left)

And here is a pig craft that is used as a cover for a heating pad in bed. A very comfortable and cozy pig... the very same case when it makes someone happy to PUT A PIG.

If you crochet - that is, you know how to do a double crochet (or single crochet, it doesn’t matter) - then in this case, you know, you know how to knit these gifts in the shape of a pig - a warm huggable cover for a coffee mug. A great gift for the New Year of the Pig is a new mug in elegant clothes.

You can also crochet a RAG or PILLOW in the shape of a pig, as in the photo below. Simple work - simple single crochet or double crochet (your choice) and simple knitting in the round - easy and convenient.

If you don't know how to knit, then you can SEW useful things in the shape of a pig - a pink pillow with an applique of a pig's face (like the photo below).

And here is a soft pig mask made of fleece fabric. If you don't make slits for the eyes- then this will be a comfortable SLEEP MASK... so that the light and glare from the TV do not interfere with falling asleep.

Or a beautiful apron with a pig - like in the photo below. It’s also a simple job - just a flat piece of fabric and an applique on it (eyes, snout, ears). No seams, no patterns - everything is extremely simple. A very convenient apron model for beginners and just right for the New Year theme.

From terry covers FOR MOP you can make these fluffy piglet slippers.

No complicated work. The lower part of the sneaker has a simple pattern - this is a drawing made according to your insole, except that it needs to be expanded a little. And the upper part of the sneaker is the toe part of your insole - which was cut from the middle to the toe (we make the cut 1 cm short of the edge of the toe), and this cut was moved apart with our hands (and in this spread form, we trace our toe part on the sheet paper - we get a pattern for the upper part of the sneaker. All that remains is to connect both parts - the sole and the toe - and decorate the elements of the pig's face on top (ears, eyes, heel).
A

You can also make Christmas tree TOYS in the shape of a pig or a ball pig.
For example, use your hands to roll a ball out of felt in soapy water and add other felt elements to it (stigma, ears, paws).

You can make characters for a finger puppet theater - a set of three felt pigs, each of which is put on a finger.

Craft pig

BEADED ON WIRE.

Here are ideas for crafts and beads - small keychains in the shape of a pig. Here is a beautiful pig with wired ears and beady eyes. A very cute pig with long ears.

Instead of a snout for such a beaded pig, you can use a pink BUTTON from a shirt.

Craft PIG

keychain souvenir.

You can make SMALL pig crafts. For example, let it be key chains (or keychains??). These souvenir baby pigs are simply and quickly sewn from soft fluffy fleece or pink felt.

Or you can make souvenir keychains from leather. The result will be an elite, expensive craft of the highest quality.

But you can sew pig crafts that are simple in design and cut. The piglet can be anything you want - an oblique curve - it will still be cute and pig-like - thanks to three identifying elements - a snout, ears and a tail.

Check out how these simple hand-drawn patterns turned into adorable pigs and piglets in the photo below.

You can make a COFFEE pig toy, like a bag (pictured below), painted with a strong coffee solution, and then use acrylic paints to paint the pig’s face and clothes on this bag

You can combine different fabric textures in one craft pig - velvet, chintz, drape, corduroy, satin, etc.

These are the ideas for those who want to make a Pig with their own hands for the New Year of the Pig. May it turn out beautifully.

Papier-mâché: piggy bank

To make a funny papier-mâché piggy bank, we will use toilet paper or newspapers, acrylic putty, acrylic paints, PVA glue, an inflatable balloon, foil, and a foil reel.


First of all, you need to inflate the balloon. Then we apply prepared scraps of newspaper soaked in PVA glue and water onto the inflated ball in several layers - so that our piggy bank is not soft, but strong enough, and let it dry.


In a plastic bucket we will prepare the papier-mâché mixture: tear toilet paper or napkins into small pieces and add PVA glue. Mix everything properly! We coat the future pig with the resulting “chewed paper”.


When the papier-mâché frame dries well, the ball must be carefully burst and pulled out. Now we need to close the hole through which we pulled the ball out: to do this, we will seal it crosswise with masking tape and apply papier-mâché, leaving a small rectangular hole - this will be a slot where money is thrown.

We divide the foil reel into four equal parts - it will serve as legs for our pig. Glue the legs to the pig with masking tape. Then we apply papier-mâché. The inside of the legs must be filled with something heavy - this will make our pig more stable. Sand or some small metal object, such as a nut or screws, will do.


We make a snout for the pig from foil, under it we need to form a mouth (upper and lower lip).


Now we need to sculpt eyes and ears for our pig - they can be made either from the remains of papier-mâché or sculpted from clay.


The flexible wire will serve as a tail for the pig: twist it, covering the tail with the remains of papier-mâché. After our pig has completely dried, it must be properly treated several times with acrylic putty and then wiped with a cloth dampened in water - this will level the barrel of the pig.



Our piggy is ready for painting!


First you need to apply dark paint, you can use several different shades. Then red paint is applied to the craft with a sponge.


Then - pink, and as the final stage - pink and white paints are applied. The last step is to apply white paint to the protruding surfaces. Our piggy bank is ready!

We offer you another version of the piggy bank, the step-by-step implementation of which you can watch in the video:

Pig pendants made from salt dough

As a wonderful souvenir gift, you can also make a pig pendant at home from materials that can be found in every home - flour and salt. It is very easy to make such a pig, it turns out very cool and is suitable as a mascot that any child will be happy with, or as a craft for kindergarten. Below are step-by-step instructions on how to make such a souvenir.

Simple DIY crafts for kindergarten

Products that can easily be made include a paper craft, a costume for a children's party - a mask and pig ears, as well as a pig in a pen. Let's take a step-by-step look at how easy it is to make these crafts yourself.

Paper craft

To make such a toy paper souvenir, we will need: a pencil and a black marker, a ruler, colored paper - pink or red, as well as silver, a stapler and glue, pre-prepared plastic eyes, and a ribbon for decoration.


The body of our pig should be voluminous; For this we will need colored paper - pink or red. We cut out an even rectangle from paper, connect the edges with glue or a stapler so that we get the base body for our craft - a tall and wide tube.



Next, we make the basis for the pig’s face: we take paper of two different colors, from one we cut out a larger circle - the head of our piglet, and two small triangles-ears, from the second - a smaller oval-patch. You can take pre-prepared plastic eyes for the pig, or you can cut them out yourself from other colored paper.


Now we need to connect all the parts we cut out: bend them and glue the ears and snout to the head in sequence. On the patch we will add nostrils and a smiling mouth underneath. We draw eyelashes on the eyes.


Now you need to cut out the remaining details from multi-colored paper - for the pig’s belly we’ll take a silver color, and red for the front legs and tail. We glue the prepared parts: we glue the long legs on the sides of the pig's body, the tail - to the back of the craft, the tummy - in the front.


We tie a thin ribbon around the pig's neck and tie a smart bow. Our pig is ready!


The finished paper pig craft can be presented as a New Year's present, and it will also look good on a decorated Christmas tree as a toy.

You can also make the following craft from cardboard:

Costume: mask and pig ears

It is very easy to prepare such a costume for a children's party yourself, since it does not require sewing and its production will take only a few minutes.


For a costume consisting of a pig's snout, ears and tail, we will need:

  • felt or fleece in pink and white colors,
  • scissors,
  • glue,
  • stapler,
  • paper cup,
  • elastic pink ribbon,
  • thin elastic band,
  • white thin plastic hair hoop.
First we make the ponytail: cut a piece of felt fabric - it should be a little longer and wider than a piece of wire. We put the wire inside a rectangular piece of fabric, wrap it and carefully glue the fabric.


Then we take an elastic band, fold it like a belt, attach the tail we prepared in the middle and fasten it with a stapler or glue. Curl the tail like a pig. One piece of the costume is ready!


Now let's start making the patch. To do this, take a cardboard cup of small diameter, apply a piece of pink felt to it, trace and cut out the resulting circle - this will be our patch. Cut off the top of the glass so that the height of the glass is one and a half to two centimeters.


We cut a rectangular strip of the same width from the felt so that we can wrap our cup. Now we glue our cut out parts to the cup: a circle to the bottom, a rectangular strip along the entire cup. It turns out to be a cute pink patch!

We cut out two small oval parts from white felt - nostrils. Glue it onto the patch exactly in the middle.


We make two small holes on the sides of the cup into which we insert a thin elastic band. We tie an elastic band inside the cup-patch on each side into a large knot. We try our nose on our head; it should hold tightly enough so that it does not fall off, but also does not press too much. Our nose for the pig costume is ready!

Let's start making ears. To do this, we need to cut two large pieces in the shape of pig ears from the pink felt. Then we take our hairband, gather our ear, clamp it and wrap it around the headband, secure it well with glue.


Our costume for the holiday is ready!

Pig in the pen



To make such a textile craft we will need:
  • empty plastic bottle with a volume of 0.5 liters,
  • plastic eyes,
  • 4 plastic lids,
  • a piece of light felt or felt material,
  • a small piece of flexible wire
  • a piece of padding polyester,
  • nylon white stocking,
  • colorful paper,
  • several wooden skewers,
  • skein of twine,
  • shoe cardboard box lid,
  • gouache red and white,
  • clear varnish,
  • hot glue,
  • a few pebbles, acorns and twigs.
First, let's prepare a pen for the pig: turn the box upside down, glue the required number of wooden skewers around the entire perimeter.

We cover the inside of the box with green paper and weave a fence using twine around the glued skewers. We put acorns and pebbles in the pen, put a plastic jar - a feeder for our pig, and arrange tree branches. Our pen is ready!


Now we make a pig from a plastic bottle: we cut the bottle into several parts - the bottom, the middle and the neck. Connect the neck to the bottom and glue it using hot glue.


Using scissors, carefully cut out the mouth under the neck of the bottle. We cover the bottle with padding polyester and also make a mouth hole using scissors.


We tighten the stocking around the body of our workpiece, cut out a hole-mouth and secure it with hot glue.


Our stocking knot on the neck of the bottle must be closed with a snout: to do this, cut out a circle from white cardboard, cover it with nylon, tie it with thread - our snout is ready.


The knot on the bottom of the bottle must also be closed with a wire tail, which we first cover in the area of ​​the butt with nylon.


Cut out the pig's ears from light felt and glue them to the head.


We prepare the legs: take plastic plugs, cover them with padding polyester and nylon, tighten them with thread, secure them and glue them to the pig’s body with glue.


Prepare the gouache: mix red and white colors to make pink. We paint our pig evenly. Apply clear varnish on top. After the craft has dried, glue on the pig’s eyes and nostrils. Our piggy craft in the pen is ready!

We sew a pig from children's tights

Making such a souvenir will not take much time; for this you will need synthetic padding, children's tights or socks and a little imagination. The piggy craft is easy to complete by following the step-by-step instructions below. Ready? Then let's get started!

Socks also make good piglets:

Pig ball made of threads



To make such an original craft we will need the following materials:
  • pink threads/yarn,
  • colored paper,
  • scissors,
  • round or oval inflatable ball,
  • PVA glue,
  • a plastic cup,
  • needle.
First we need to prepare the base - the body of the pig: for this we will take a balloon and inflate it to the size we need. Now we pierce the plastic cup right through with a needle: the resulting holes should go near the very bottom of our cup. We will pour PVA glue into it, and we will pull the thread through the holes so that it passes through the glue poured into the cup.


We wrap our inflated ball in a chaotic manner with a thread dipped in glue to create as many weaves as possible. The larger the layer of wound thread, the stronger the craft will be. You can stop gluing the ball when it is almost hidden under a layer of thread.

It is necessary to remember that the glue takes a long time to dry, about a day, so such a craft must be prepared in advance before the holiday.


After the glue has completely dried, you need to pierce the ball with a needle and carefully remove it from the craft.

The legs of a piglet are made in the same way: a sausage ball is inflated, wrapped with thread, then after the glue has dried, the ball must be carefully burst and removed from the legs.


Now you need to glue the legs to the body; While the glue dries, we can start making the pig's face. To do this, on colored paper we first need to draw all the necessary details - a snout, eyes and ears, then cut them out and glue them onto the pig’s body.


Then you need to stretch a long thread and secure it with a loop knot - it will come in handy if we want to hang our craft on the Christmas tree.

Coffee toy

A New Year's pig souvenir in the form of a coffee toy is also easy to make, its design is quite simple, but it will have an exquisite aroma of coffee, vanilla or cinnamon and will give its new owner only positive emotions. Let's start creating a coffee toy!

The technique for making such a souvenir is quite simple, and to make naf-naf we will need: light calico, light threads, stuffing material - padding polyester or foam rubber, vanillin or vanilla sugar, cocoa, instant coffee, cinnamon, scissors, PVA glue, needle, old toothbrush, gel pen, small container for diluting fragrance, brushes, acrylic paints.


First, you need to prepare and cut out a template - you can attach tracing paper or thin paper to the monitor screen and trace the outline of the toy from the photo.


The toy can also be cut out to any size; to do this, just click on the picture and its size will increase. It is also advisable to transfer the cut out pattern to thin cardboard - it is more practical and convenient.

Now we will need our pen - we will use it to trace the resulting pattern; This should be done on fabric that is folded in half; if you plan to sew more than one toy, then you need to leave a space on the fabric between the patterns for a seam allowance of about 0.5 cm, while the seam itself is best done not along the drawn line itself, but nearby: the mark from the handle will not be noticeable if the fabric gets wet.


It is necessary to sew two layers of fabric along the line at the same time; the seam begins and ends between the hind limbs of our craft, leaving about 2 centimeters unsewn - this hole is necessary to make it more convenient to stuff the pig. Also, you can’t cut the seam threads so that it doesn’t come apart when we turn and stuff our pig.


We also cut out triangular teeth at the seam allowances, leaving a distance to the seam itself of about 0.2 cm - this will allow the seam on the toy to remain smooth and not bulge in different directions.


Now we turn it inside out and stuff the stitched pig; For particularly narrow spaces, the ends of folded scissors are suitable. We fill the toy with padding polyester using the unsewn holes: the more padding polyester there is inside, the more “plump” and “pot-bellied” our pig will be. It is necessary to carefully sew up the holes through which we stuffed our pig and thread it - this will help us easily hang our pig to dry.


Now let’s prepare the flavoring for our craft: dilute 40 ml of boiling water in a prepared container and add a teaspoon of coffee. Then the remaining ingredients - vanilla, cinnamon, cocoa - add about a quarter of a teaspoon to the resulting mixture.

Stir everything thoroughly and cool. Then you need to add about half a teaspoon of PVA glue to the mixture and mix thoroughly.


Apply the resulting composition to our pig with a toothbrush so that the fabric is stained and not completely saturated.


Now we need to dry our toy; To do this, hang it on a rack in the oven, turned on at low heat, for a quarter of an hour.
If, after drying, there are still wet spots on the toy, you need to turn off the oven and dry our workpiece in this way.


After complete drying, the fabric soaked in the coffee adhesive solution will become rigid, and any funny design can easily be applied to it.

Let's start painting - first with a simple pencil to outline the details, and then with acrylic paints. After the paints have dried, you can attach a loop or magnet to the coffee toy - then you can hang it on the Christmas tree or on the refrigerator.


It is advisable to avoid getting the toy wet. Our wonderful DIY coffee pig is ready!



Sew a tilde pig



In order to make such a wonderful souvenir, we will need a printout of the pattern, cut out and transferred to the selected material. The best material for such a toy is natural, plain light fabric, such as linen, cotton, calico, poplin. You can take materials left over from old clothes or a new piece of fabric.

The pattern itself consists of several parts - the pig's body, ears and legs.


The fabric must be folded in half, the pattern pieces placed on top and outlined; Don't forget to leave 0.5 cm on the seams. Now we cut out the resulting parts and sew them together as shown in mk.


Be sure to leave holes for filling the craft with stuffing and in order to sew on the pig's tail. Next, we need to sew the resulting parts together and turn them inside out. We fill the craft with filler, for example, padding polyester, holofiber, padding polyester; You can also put a flavor sachet into the pig.


It is necessary to sew the legs and ears to the body of the pig using a hidden seam. We decorate the muzzle: you can glue plastic eyes, sew on beads, embroider with threads or paint, nostrils can be drawn or embroidered with floss; You can paint a blush on the pig’s cheeks, so it will become more elegant.


In order to make the last detail of our pig doll - the perky tail - we will need to cut out a rectangular piece of fabric that is suitable in size, and sew a piece of flexible wire into it.


We fix the tip of the wire inside the tail with glue.


After the glue has dried, pull the second, free end, and it will take the shape of a pig's curled tail. We sew the tail into the body of our toy.
