For children: applique "Dandelion"

As a gift for spring holidays or just for the mood, the "Dandelion" application made by the child will give a lot of pleasure and positive to the baby and to his parents. This article will discuss in detail how to perform the original artwork and what advice should be used during the creative process.

Materials for implementation

To perform the original "dandelion" application you will need:

• Blue colored cardboard (or white, painted in blue gouache);
• Colored paper green, yellow and white;
• PVA glue;
• A simple pencil;
• Scissors with rounded ends.

The application "Dandelion" can be made from the materials listed above or using yellow wipes instead of colored cardboard.

Step-by-step implementation

Step-by-step description of the application:

1. First, the bottom half of the blue cardboard is sealed with green colored paper. If you want, you can paint the cardboard with green paint. For this, gouache is best, as it has a dense, dense structure.
2. Now you can prepare the details. First, from yellow colored paper, you need to cut a large circle and about ten thin strips. It will be the sun with rays.
3. Then we start modeling dandelions. By the number of planned flowers, it is required to cut out circles of different diameters (1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 cm). Each of them along the edges is recommended "fluff", cut out "grass". Such a large number of details with a fringe is prepared in order for the "Dandelion" appliqué to be voluminous. From the white paper, clouds are arbitrarily cut out.
4. Next, the paper application is assembled onto the substrate. First, the sun is glued to the middle of the blue background. Then clouds are attached. And last but not least, assembling dandelions. First, the green field is arbitrarily glued to the largest circles without fringe along the edge. Then the circles with fringe are taken and glued on top. It is not necessary to attach a fringe. Then, in the same way, the other circles are glued in order of decreasing size.
5. Now you need to bring the application to the end. To do this, the fringe of each dandelion must be raised, so to speak, to give the flower a shape. Dandelions will become voluminous and fluffy.

The application "Dandelion" is ready.

One of the modifications

This picture can be executed differently. Application "Dandelions" from napkins - and there is this modification.

The work is carried out in exactly the same way as the paper application. The only change is the use of napkins in place of cardboard to create flowers. All circles for dandelions are cut from napkins and glued, as described above.

To increase the volume, you can apply white wipes. They need to be crushed slightly and crumpled from above on white clouds. The volume of napkins should be preserved. Such a change diversifies the usual craft, revives it and makes it more interesting.

Application "Dandelions" from paper is an interesting activity that can deliver a lot of joy and positive emotions to your baby
