Snowmen made of cotton wool

Cotton wool is a material that looks very similar to snow in its lightness and whiteness. It is not surprising that a lot of crafts are made from it. To keep the snowman in shape, prepare a foil base, plastic bottles, burnt out light bulbs or just lumps of paper, and cotton wool is already glued on top.

Step by step description

Cotton toys carry a special atmosphere. They are very light, pleasant in the hands and do not break. Everything needed for work can be found in every home. This master class by Svetlana Satina shows how to make a snowman from cotton wool and PVA glue.

Materials:
- cotton wool,
- newspaper or magazine,
- foil,
- white paper napkins,
- threads,
- PVA glue,
- brush,
- toothpick,
- awl,
- twine thread,
- Red ribbon,
— acrylic paints or watercolor.

Progress

From old newspaper Roll three balls of different diameters. We connect them together and secure them tightly with foil.

Zig-zag cotton wool is more suitable for creating toys. It easily splits into strips and is easier to work with. We divide the cotton wool into strips and wrap them around the snowman, wrapping them tightly with threads. White threads are more suitable for work, as they are easier to mask with pieces of cotton wool. We try to pull the thread so that it lies in different directions. We increase the cotton mass until we get a figure of the desired shape and size.
Keep in mind that wet work awaits us, after which the snowman will increase in volume.

The figure in rough outline is ready, now you can move on to the details. We dilute PVA glue in half with water to make it more liquid. If you don’t have such glue on hand, you can always replace it with paste. By the way, our ancestors worked with him. The only downside of the paste is that after drying it turns yellow.
Again we split the cotton wool into thin pieces and paste them over the workpiece, thoroughly coating the cotton wool with glue. While working, we try to smooth out all the layers as tightly as possible so that the toy turns out with a good crust after drying.

While we are working with wet cotton wool, we constantly smooth it with our fingers, trying to press harder to expel excess air.
We form handles from two identical strips of cotton wool and glue them to the body. We make a small cotton cone and glue it to the place of the nose. Use a toothpick to draw a line for the mouth, and use it to outline the eyes.

In general terms, the snowman is ready, it's time to send it out to dry. This takes several hours, sometimes even days. To speed up the process, some dry the figures on a radiator, then the material shrinks less smoothly.
When the toy is completely dry, we begin to shape it further. From the whites paper napkins make a hat. We fold the dry napkin spontaneously, as if creating a headdress. We coat the improvised hat big amount glue. We wait until the napkin is completely wet and make folds on the hat.

To make a scarf, cut the napkin in half, fold it several times in width, apply glue to the inside and smooth it with your finger directly on the table. Then we wrap the scarf around the snowman's head, beautifully distributing the folds. If anyone has plain colored napkins on hand, then you can use them to make clothes for a snowman; you won’t have to paint them in the future. At this stage, we send the toy to dry again.

How to color a snowman

Our snowman is dry and ready for further action.

To paint the toy, take yellow acrylic paint, dilute it with PVA glue and apply it to the scarf and hat. Bye yellow Once it dries, paint the nose of the carrot orange. We draw the mouth in red, put black dots in place of the eyes, and outline the eyebrows. Using the same color, we apply light strokes on the carrots, imitating cracks.
Acrylic paint dries quickly and you can start decorating the scarf and headdress. We draw red stripes on the scarf and put white dots. We put red paint on a flat brush, lightly wipe it on a napkin and use a dry brush to pass along the top of the cap. Overall, the snowman is ready, but something is missing. Among New Year's toys I found a small golden ball that fit well on the snowman's hand.
In this form, the cotton wool snowman has a complete image. If there is no goal of hanging it on the Christmas tree, then you can consider the work finished.

To decorate the New Year's beauty with a toy, you need to make a puncture in the upper area of ​​the hat with an awl. We pass through the hole crochet a twine cord, tie a knot and decorate with a red ribbon.

Now the toy is completely ready. And this is him paired with a friend.
