Crafts on a military theme from different materials. Crafts on a military theme from different materials Original crafts for Victory Day

Good afternoon, dear readers and guests of the blog! On the eve of the rather significant day that we celebrate in May, I want to offer you a selection of ideas and master classes on crafts for Victory Day.

We all treat May 9 with pride and respect, go to the memorial and lay flowers at the monuments. But in schools and kindergartens all kinds of exhibitions on this topic are organized. Plus there are events and, of course, competitions for the best work.

Therefore, I certainly wanted to help you with such a difficult task ahead, and in order for you to complete it beautifully and quickly, I went through the Internet and collected a lot of magnificent and creative gifts, which I am happy to share with you.

We have already made various kinds of souvenirs, because there are a lot of holidays a year. By the way, some ideas can be taken and dedicated to this topic, I mean mine for Defenders of the Fatherland Day. Why not, after all, we made tanks, military equipment and the like in it; if you haven’t seen it, please come and visit).

Very beautiful DIY crafts for May 9th

I’ll start with perhaps the simplest, but at the same time popular and super nice option. After all, on this day the symbol will definitely be the red star and the St. George ribbon. I propose to make such a masterpiece out of paper.

Take a look at this layout and template. It is made from thick paper, or rather, from an A4 sheet, you can also take photo paper and then it will turn out even brighter and more saturated.

To build this, you need to print the blank that you see now on your screen. I have it in large format, so if anyone needs it, write to me, I’ll send it to your email.

The next option is plasticine fantasies.

You can add something else to the plasticine, for example flowers, namely carnations, but see how to make them and from what.

This is such a wonderful work with birds and symbolism.

And this is more complicated, a whole composition that could even be exhibited at an exhibition. Instead of plasticine, you can use special modeling dough.

Look, here are some other options made from salt dough.

Badges and medals are presented here.

This work deserves applause, made of dough in the shape of a photo frame. Bravo to the author! It was taken from the Country of Masters.

You can make holiday surprises in the quilling style, and origami can also be used here.

The method of trimming from ordinary napkins will also work well here. Look at the torch, the fire of glory is made in exactly this way.

Let me remind you that to do this you need to cut out a square and wrap it around a rod or pencil, and then glue it.

Or this dove, well, it looks great, and most importantly, it’s simply simple and accessible to anyone.

The main thing is a little patience and you will certainly succeed.

First, draw the plot with a pencil, and then cut out squares from a napkin, and using a pencil and glue, glue all the details.

The star and flowers also look cute together. And most importantly, the background you need is orange and black.

You can also post the date. And then continue the thought and create something unique and inimitable.

Of course, you can’t do without fireworks. Tadam, there's a roar in the sky!

Regular discs are very popular among preschoolers, junior and senior schoolchildren. But what if you turn them upside down, it will be brilliant and original.

Place any symbols of Victory Day on it, and then show everyone your work.

You can specify the date or how many years have passed since that day.

I also propose to dwell on such a funny product, namely a tank. Cut strips of corrugated cardboard paper, and then follow the step-by-step instructions.

You can even assemble it from matches, imagine, and this video from the YouTube channel will help you with this.

It turned out nice, but it’s not enough to complete the star, isn’t it? Let's make it using the origami technique and it will serve as a stand.

It turned out great, what do you think of this charming idea? And then it will only get more interesting.

You can also make such military equipment from dough; for this, make a stiff dough from water (1 tbsp), vegetable oil(0.5 tsp) salt (1 tbsp), flour (1 tbsp).

Then start creating. It is best to do it from a picture or from a ready-made toy tank.

Then paint it the color you want.

Craft in the form of the Eternal Flame with a template

The easiest thing that comes to mind is this applique; schoolchildren and preschoolers always really like this idea. After all, they all love to work with paper and glue.

To begin, draw a fire, or use ready-made blanks, then a star and symbols, cut it out and glue it onto the postcard.

I also liked this model, but based on this star template. The dotted lines are the fold lines.

Transfer this to a piece of cardboard and draw clear outlines on the back side.

Start folding along these lines.

All that remains is to add the missing note, the red fiery flame.

Here is a similar idea, I have a sample of a large star, write at the bottom of the article, I will send it.

By the way, this craft can be made from plasticine balls.

The main thing is to outline the contours for the child and tell him what is required of him. You can also paint the background with watercolors.

Well, make a small applique, in general, come up with it, take this idea for inspiration.

Well, I couldn’t pass by this creative work.

We will need:

cardboard candy box
colored paper or colored cardboard (red, orange, gray, yellow)
PVA glue or double-sided tape
blue wire
paper cupcake pans
full length photograph of a soldier

Stages of work:

1. Cut out stars of different sizes from cardboard.

2. Cover the candy box in the desired color.

3. Saddle up from corrugated paper fire from different colors so that it seems to be on fire.

4. Now make triangle stands from strips of cardboard and place the soldiers on them.

5. Plus these semicircular columns behind them.

6. Well, all that remains is to make flowers, you can make any flowers, I have one for this case, because you can make roses and tulips. In this version, it is supposed to be made from cups and decorated with paints, and chenille wire will act as stems.

7. And here’s the result: it turns out it’s not all that complicated.

Here's another model.

Postcard made of paper and cardboard for Victory Day for students in grades 1-4

Probably the most common, and also very charming, miracle is, of course, flowers. There are so many of them, it’s simply not honorable, I’ve already given you ideas, but I didn’t show you how to make a carnation. Therefore, I am correcting myself, because most of them are given to veterans on postcards on this day.

Fold a piece of paper in half, then again and again. A red paper napkin is best suited for this purpose. You should have 6 rectangles.

Works well from corrugated paper. Afterwards, put all the rectangles in one stack and fold them like an accordion, and then tie them with wire, as shown in this picture.

Make the ends in the form of triangles and fluff the flower. But that's not all, you can experiment and take, for example, white color and outline the ends with a felt-tip pen.

There are many options, and they are all similar to each other.

Now you can take and decorate holiday cards with them.

Let's do this again. Fold the sheet in half and on one side draw what you want to impress.

Roll them into balls.

But that's not all, you also need long strips, roll them into flagella.

Now, using glue, start decorating the product.

It will turn out great, don’t you think so?

Looks pretty cool and very stylish.

Here's another nice job.

Master classes of work for kindergarten (preschoolers)

For the little ones, I can suggest making flowers from ordinary cupcake molds. They will cope with this type of activity with a bang.

We will need:

cups
chenille wire
paints
tassel

Stages of work:

1. Take multi-colored paper molds, if you have them white, then color them any color you like. bright color brush and let dry.

Make a hole with a pen or an awl.

2. Carefully insert the wire and bend its end into the base.

3. This is such an elegant bouquet.

Or fun craft in the shape of a fireworks, using the blowing method, drop a drop of paint on the sheet, and then let your child blow into the tube.

The air will cause splashes and splashes in different directions.

You can draw an entire city this way.

Or use more bushings.

And the same molds only in a different role.

You can invite the kids to make an airplane out of ordinary plasticine.

Of course, they will need help, but they will clearly cope with this task.

You can organize collective activities together with your parents.

The main thing is to convey the symbolism of the upcoming holiday.

Pupils of the senior, middle and preparatory groups even made postcards.

Well, here is another masterpiece, very stylish and beautiful.

You can, if you want something more serious, create a machine from bushings toilet paper. Of course they will need to be painted in the desired color, black.

Then tie it off with masking tape.

And cover it with colored or wrapping paper.

Then all that remains is to complete the gun and cockpit.

We make crafts very quickly for the school competition on May 9

The first thing that came to my mind was a stand newspaper. In my time they were very popular, we did them for every event, why not resume this tradition again.

You might find this video useful.

I would like to present to your attention these small blanks in the form of coloring books, take pencils and markers and start working on these posters, it will turn out really super and cool.

In general, if you want to somehow stand out from the whole crowd of your peers, then make a hanger from foamiran. Look at these flowers on ribbons.

I suggest small master class about this theme.

We will need:

foamiran
glue gun
a pin or better yet a brooch with a pin
St. George Ribbon
wire

Stages of work:

1. Take the ribbon and carefully cut it with scissors, about 25 cm long. The edges can be scorched with a candle or lighter so that they do not fringe.

2. The next step is to glue the blank like this.

3. Mark the parts on a regular sheet of paper. Since this is a clove, it means they will be as follows:

4. Make these blanks from foamiran. That is, these will be petals and leaves.

7. Glue in some places, use a gun.

8. Secure the finished flower to a ribbon.

9. C reverse side glue the brooch.

This craft using the quilling technique also looks original and excellent. You will need to first make the triangular parts, and then insert them into each other in a certain sequence.

I hope you are familiar with this technique, here is some hint for you.

You can create any shape yourself.

These pictures are taken from the country of masters. What a hand, a torch of victory.

Well, and of course, decorate it with symbols to your taste, for example, write the Patriotic War.

And finally great idea, this is beading.

Of course, if you don’t understand this, then it will be difficult for you to disassemble this circuit. But the result will be a very delicate red rose. And the orange and black ribbon will go perfectly with this masterpiece.

Souvenirs and gifts for veterans on this day

For children kindergarten I propose the simplest option, in my opinion, to make badges and orders.

You must first find and print the template.

Well, then get to work, color them as it should be.

First, paint the surface with white paint and let dry. Apply PVA glue to the purchased badge.

And stick them on the badge. Paint with acrylic paint.

Then continue working and make the St. George ribbon.

From the opposite side it looks like this.

You can also make such a holiday note from paper in the form of a triangular letter.

Of course, all sorts of Victory cards!

For example, you can arrange it like this.

Or place flowers on them.

Here are more works, take your pick.

This kind of voluminous work deserves attention; light fabric is used here.

Or take this one as a basis.

Write wishes and congratulations inside; veterans will be very pleased to receive such a letter.

You can make and give a book that you wrap in a special way.

Scrapbooking style, as you may have already noticed.

You can also bake a delicious cake.

Making a St. George ribbon from satin ribbons with children

This year, as usual, you and I will decorate our clothes with St. George’s ribbons, which will symbolize and remind us of this important event in history (this is one of the main attributes of this celebration). If you look at it, these two colors mean the eternal flame of fire (orange) and smoke (black), which arose when the cities and towns of the Russian population of the country were burning.

All of you have probably seen brooches from satin ribbons glasses and now it has become fashionable to decorate them with flowers in the kanzashi style.

Do you want to learn this skill? Then look at these instructions from left to right and repeat step by step, you will succeed, use a glue gun.

Choose any option and act.

All these masterpieces are fantastic and very attractive.

Competition works from the Country of Masters

Well, now, as promised, the works that I saw from this famous site. You can use them to recreate such wonderful images.

Craft Dove of Peace from paper

Another symbol is doves. You can also do them using improvised means that you have in your apartment.

To make them look voluminous, make a lot of feathers, and then connect them with glue, or you can also use foam rubber.

Also take threads and make a base from them, this will be the body, and all other parts of the body will be made of another material, as in this photo.

Templates can be obtained on the Internet or requested from me.

Look, you can also create a composition on sticks.

I also liked this dove, it looks like it’s real.

In principle, you just need to print it on paper and cut it out, and then bend it along the fold lines.

And then enjoy the craft. Cool.

Or maybe you’ll like this one, the traditional version.

From plastic utensils, namely plates, look what happened.

Who would have thought, but this is also an imitation of real bird wings, if you have a cup with such ribbed rims.

And finally, does a bird in the style of vytynanok, or kirigami, really look great?

How can you make a three-dimensional star?

In principle, in this article at the very beginning, we have already seen various kinds of stars. But, here I also want to offer one more video for viewing.

Plus such handmade products.

You can try first using the origami folding technique.

Well, this one will simply shock you; it will turn out to be such a magical star.

Use cardboard, corrugated paper and glue to work. Do preparatory work, cut out all the necessary parts.

Glue all the parts together, and then decorate with simulated leaves.

Fold the roses out of corrugated paper, twist them in a spiral, then secure them.

Holiday cards for the Great Victory Day

I would like to touch upon this topic a little more, although soon I will write a separate note on this subject. Now I suggest you watch the video, and maybe you will make just such a charm for this Victory Day.

Even more ideas
Or take it and follow this example. It turns out voluminous and not at all difficult.

Or I offer a simple master class for viewing. Cut a circle out of corrugated paper and fold it like this.

Then cut the ends.

There should be at least 3-4 such blanks per flower. Lubricate the center with glue.

And then put it on a postcard.

And add stems and leaves, as well as inscriptions and ribbon.

If you don’t like this option, then take this one or the next one.

They both look really good live.

That's all friends, this is where I end this post. I hope you liked these ideas and ideas and you will definitely take something to note. Bye everyone and see you soon! Good luck and have a great sunny mood. Bye!

Sincerely, Ekaterina Mantsurova

A grandiose date is approaching - the celebration of the 70th anniversary of the Victory over fascism and the end of the Second World War. The task before us is to convey to our children the history of that war, not to let them forget the horrors of fascism and the heroism of our grandfathers and great-grandfathers.

In addition to stories about the war, reading books and watching movies, making postcards and crafts for Victory Day will help instill in children a historical memory. Motherhood.ru offers a selection of crafts for May 9 that you can do with your children.

Simple postcards-applications for Victory Day

Flat cards using the appliqué technique can be made even with younger preschoolers. The subject can be different: a festive fireworks display over the Kremlin, a soldier’s helmet under a branch of a blossoming apple tree, a poster composition with a St. George ribbon, a star and young foliage. Depending on the age of the child, he can be tasked with cutting out parts from colored paper or just gluing them onto a sheet.

Volumetric postcards with applique

You can include interesting details in the plot of the postcard: voluminous carnations, they are made according to the principle, or unusual clouds and sun.

Not a flat, but a voluminous red star - a symbol of the victorious army - looks very advantageous.

You can make such a star according to the following scheme:

The basis for crafts for Victory Day can be not only a landscape sheet. The circular composition made on an old CD looks interesting. The disk holds its shape perfectly, and such a craft can be hung, for example, from a lamp in a room or from a mirror in a car.

Multilayer cards and compositions

A three-dimensional picture can be made from several flat images arranged in several layers with indentation. To create space between the layers, use pieces of thick corrugated cardboard or foam board, and an ordinary candy box can become the frame for the composition.

Straw applique

If you know the technique of applique from straw or birch bark, then you may decide to take on such a serious work as the triptych shown in the photo below. It will take a lot of work and artistic taste, but the result is worth it.

Decorating a postcard with embroidery

Embroidery on paper or cardboard looks very original. For example, the famous fireworks display on Red Square can be decorated in this way. It is better to embroider not on white, but on colored cardboard - this will make the craft for Victory Day more elegant.

A bright craft for Victory Day, embroidered with sequins, perfectly conveys the festive mood.

Stained glass is a complex technique, but the result is very elegant and festive, so it’s worth a try! We select an image for the future stained glass window or draw a sketch. We place it under the glass, degrease the glass surface (you can use a cotton pad with nail polish remover) and outline it with contour paint. Let it dry and gradually apply colors to the glass.

Vytynanka - silhouette paper cutting

Loved by many, it can be used not only in New Year’s decorations, but also in crafts for Victory Day.
You can start with a simpler craft. Here large shapes are cut out of colored paper.

More painstaking work will require cutting out a thematic postcard-panel with inserts of colored paper. First, the main design is applied to the paper and slots are cut out, then carefully glued on the bottom side colored paper. Depending on the background color, the panel will look different!

You can make a postcard from individual silhouette clippings and stick to the base.

Volumetric crafts made from colored paper

By modeling from colored paper and cardboard, you can create interesting volumetric compositions. An excellent themed craft for the holiday would be the Order of the Patriotic War or the Order of Victory.

Kids can be asked to make a very simple plot: Eternal flame made of red and yellow paper, St. George's ribbon and inscription.

Older kids or a group of children can take on making a tank out of cardboard.

Well, for those who feel empowered, we offer an even more complex composition. The subject could be, for example, a monument to fallen soldiers, with an eternal flame, flowers and steps of a staircase leading to the monument.

Crafts for May 9 from plasticine

A real memorial can be made from plasticine. You can complement the sculptural image with a St. George ribbon and inscriptions cut out from last year’s postcard.

Plasticine is a very rewarding material. You can use it to make almost anything you imagine: tanks and planes, monuments to fallen soldiers, paintings and posters with slogans. It can be wrapped in foil or spray painted.

Battle reconstructions

Reconstructions of battles can be performed from the most different materials: clay, plasticine, cardboard and paper and even dough. Working on such compositions helps children to deeply experience the stories they read about the war and the films they saw.

Drawings about war

Drawings about the war speak volumes: sad ones, with hope for Victory, and joyful ones - with a return home.

Wall newspapers, collages and posters

It is imperative to publish a school wall newspaper for Victory Day. Look at some striking examples of thematic wall newspapers for May 9 and get inspired by ideas!

Making a collage of old historical photographs and letters, reviving them with poems and flowers is a great idea that conveys the atmosphere of the Great Patriotic War to the generation of our children.

A collage postcard is suitable for decorating an assembly hall or stand. Check out two decorating ideas using the same pattern:

You can make your own special military composition on the printed map of military operations. For example, with the famous “Katyusha”.

The article uses photos from the sites:

Victory Day is a wonderful holiday! The population of our country celebrates this day with special pride. In schools and other educational institutions, as a rule, creativity lessons are held, where children get acquainted with the history of this holiday and make crafts.

scissors;
threads;
glue for gluing to the base.

If you use paper napkins, then one will yield 8 flowers with a diameter of 6-7 cm.

Operating procedure:

Tear 1 cm from each edge of the napkin around the perimeter.
Tear each napkin in half to make 8 identical rectangles with torn edges.
Fold each rectangle like an accordion and tie it in the center with thread (or secure with wire).
Now you can start decorating the flower: carefully separate each layer of the napkin and fold it into the center, forming a carnation.
