Creativity: DIY crafts on the theme of Masha and the Bear
To make it easier for parents, check out the presented master class. You will get this kind of work as a result.
For this you need to take:
- colored paper;
- plasticine;
- glue;
- cardboard;
- straws for juice;
- cones;
- rhinestones;
- Scotch;
- scissors.
Let's start with the house. To make it, we cut out two identical rectangular parts for the sidewalls. Two wide walls consist of a square and a rectangle - this is a single piece. We make the roof from two identical sheets. We glue them together at the top with scotch tape. We connect the walls in the same way, attach the roof to the house.
We design it in an interesting way. The role of the logs is played by straws for a cocktail, thanks to this, the structure will turn out to be elegant, fabulous. They need to be glued to the cardboard, placing them close to each other.
Combine colors. For example, if you are making walls from blue and green straws, then create a roof from yellow ones.
Paste over the house with rhinestones, then it will turn out to be even more elegant. We proceed to the main characters, the bear is made of cones very quickly. We only need one for him. This is the body of our clubfoot. We make the front paws from acorns, and the hind legs, ears and nose from acorn caps. We glue these parts to the base with plasticine. We make eyes from the same material. Blind squirrels from white, pupils from black plasticine.
Making Masha is also not difficult. Let the child roll out the dark plasticine, which will become the hands and feet of the heroine. She blinds handles from light plasticine, attaches them to an acorn. Make a handkerchief for the girl from a small piece of fabric, then tie it around her head. It is also made of plasticine, like facial features.
Craft Masha and the Bear will be on the inverted lid of the box. Previously, you need to glue it over with green paper, cut out the grass from the same, glue it here. For the fence, cut out strips of colored paper, glue them to the sides of the box.
Chickens can be made from yellow pom-poms, glue on black bead eyes, an orange beak from colored paper. A bundle of firewood will be branches that need to be wrapped with a rope.
Let the child blind plasticine mushrooms, attach them to the clearing. You will succeed in such a wonderful craft Masha and the Bear.
Here is a second idea, which is suitable not only for kindergarten, but also for elementary school.
For such work, you can use ready-made figures. If it is not possible to buy them, then sculpt them from polymer clay or from plasticine. Moss or ornamental grass can be used instead of grass. If these materials are not available, then glue the inverted box with green paper, it is better to use velvet paper.
Make a fence from twigs that need to be rewound with twine, and make a tree from tied branches of a Christmas tree. Let the child paint the cones, put chestnuts as decoration. Physalis, rowan berries, acorn hats will also become bright accents of the work. Here is one more crafts Masha and the Bear completed.
Mask for the Bear and hair for Masha
This magical story is very popular not only for various substitutions and celebrations in childcare, but also for entertainment at home. Spend a themed birthday of your daughter, who will be happy to turn into Masha for a while. To do this, it is necessary to make costumes for the heroes of the fairy tale, develop a script, a menu for refreshments, and arrange the place where the holiday will take place accordingly.
Let's start with the apparel. The bear mask is created using papier mache technique. It is quite simple to make it with your own hands.
For the mask you will need:
- thin paper or newspapers;
- cardboard;
- PVA glue;
- stationery knife;
- Balloon;
- sponge;
- dye;
- construction tape.
Inflate the balloon. What size it becomes in this state, so will the mask. Pour the glue into a bowl, cut the newspaper into strips, dip them in the solution, attach to the ball. You need to make several layers of paper to make the bear mask strong.
When you glue the newspaper strips on the ball, do not attach them at the bottom near the tail, there will be a hole for the head. In the meantime, make a spout out of cardboard, it consists of two parts - a round one, which needs to be wrapped in a rectangle made of the same material by gluing. To then attach the nose to the mask, cut out the bottom, as in the photo.
Is the paper mache from the newspapers dry? Then you need to blow off the ball, piercing the shell with a needle, and carefully remove it. Adjust the hole for the head with a clerical knife to make it smoother.
Use tape to glue the nose and ears cut from cardboard. To cut holes for the eyes, put the mask on yourself, mark them with a felt-tip pen, cut out. Sponge the mask brown. Draw beige circles around the eyes.
The bear mask is ready, let's make hair for the girl. For them you need to take:
- yarn of yellow or other color;
- thin elastic cap to match;
- scissors.
You need to give the threads the same length. To do this, you can wind them around the hands of an assistant or on the back of a chair. Place this yarn over the hat, sew here, making a center seam. To close a part of the hat in front, sew small threads here in the form of a bang.
You have got a wig for a girl, which adds a fabulousness to the image.
If you do not have such a base hat, sew it from a stretch fabric. Such a heroine can participate in another fairy tale. For this, you will need to make not one papier-mâché mask, but three. Then you can play a fairy tale called "Three Bears".
For both of these stories, you will need to sew a sundress for Mashenka, see how to do it.
How to sew a sundress and a scarf for Masha?
We will create it from a bright crimson fabric so that it is the same as that of the heroine of the famous cartoon.
Here's what you need for this product:
- crimson coarse calico fabric;
- lightning;
- braid with an ornament;
- threads to match;
- pattern paper;
- large ruler;
- pencil;
- scissors.
The presented pattern for a girl of 3 years. The sundress consists of an upper part, which is called a yoke, and a lower part, a skirt.
- Redraw these details on the paper, based on the given dimensions in centimeters.
- Fold the fabric in half, right-side inward, so that the hem is vertically away from you. Place the yoke and skirt on one side of the fabric, close to the fold of the fabric, and pin the paper templates with pins.
- If you are a beginner dressmaker, then draw a pattern on the fabric with a pencil, so that you can then sew along the basting, and the seam was even. Experienced craftswomen can immediately cut fabric blanks with 7 mm seam allowances, make a line parallel to the edges of the parts.
- You should have 4 of them: the shelf and back of the yoke and the front and back of the skirt panel. In this case, it will be necessary to process the armholes of the sleeves and the neck with a bias tape. If you don't want to do this, then cut out not 2, but 4 parts of the yoke: two for the back and the same for the stick. In this case, place them on the pattern like this.
- We begin to sew a children's sundress. Fold two parts: front and back with right sides, sew shoulder seams on the wrong side. Do the same with the second pairs of yoke pieces.
- Now fold the first pair of sundress tops with the second right sides. Defer the neckline and armholes.
- Sew the front of the sundress skirt to the yoke of the shelf, and the back to the back.
- Sew a zipper on the left side of the sundress with a basting stitch on your hands. Sew it on a sewing machine, also grind off the sides of the product.
- The bottom of the hem can be tucked up and sewn with an invisible seam on the hands or on a typewriter. Sew a braid to the bottom of the sundress skirt.
- To sew the suit further, create a scarf from the same fabric according to the dimensions shown. Tuck the edges of the product, hem it with a regular seam or zigzag.
Here's how to sew Masha's costume without spending a lot of time and money on it.
To dress the heroine completely, she needs to wear a white turtleneck under a sundress, and knee-highs or tights of the same color and shoes on her legs.
DIY Bear costume
You will create it very quickly. For the first master class, we will sew one from an old jacket, for the second - from a soft toy. To get your first idea into reality, take:
- brown jacket;
- two small fleece canvases in brown and beige shades;
- scissors;
- threads;
- round container for the template.
Here is what kind of jacket will soon turn into a bear costume, for this with your own hands you need to attach a round object to the beige fleece. Draw it on the fabric, cut it out.
Pin to the front of the jacket, then stitch here on a sewing machine using a zigzag stitch.
Let's move on to the ears. To create them, you will need 3 blanks: two identical for each ear from brown fleece and two from beige.
First, you need to sew a beige blank with a zigzag seam on the front side of the brown ear.
Now split this shaped side of the ear from the second one. Sew these blanks on the wrong side.
Make slits on the hood on one side, put the bear's ears here, sew them in.
This is how quickly a bear costume for a child turns out, with your own hands you made it from an ordinary jacket.
If there is a large soft toy in the house that is the size of a child, then you can turn it into a fairy-tale character's outfit.
Take a utility knife and cut a line on the head of the toy with it to remove the filler.
You will also need to rip up the seams on the legs and at the bottom of the body. Make a cutout at the bottom of the bear's head, tuck its edges. Sew on your hands. The bear's head will become a hood, stuff it with a little padding polyester to give it a shape.
Use a lining to hide the inside seams. This task will be simplified by an unnecessary jacket with a hood, which is stitched inside. If you don't feel like messing around for a long time, you can do without the lining.
And the zipper must be sewn on. If the bear has a line in the center of its belly, then sew the snake here. If not, in order not to make a cut here, you can sew it on the side, where the line was. Tuck the fur at the bottom of the paws, hem it on your hands. This is where the child will thread his legs. We make further a bear costume for a boy. To do this, you need to rip the front paws along the seam, tuck the fur, hem. The work has been completed.
