Application from napkins: 130 photos of ideas, templates and blanks. Handicraft lesson for children 3,4, 5 and 7 years old (master class for beginners)

What is special about applications for children?

Children take an active part in making crafts using napkins. This technique is most common among younger children – three-year-olds.

This is due to the fact that the manufacturing technology is so simple that they happily get to work and learn to make crafts with their own hands.

During the creative process, the children develop the inclinations for creativity, develop fine motor skills, and learn to work with the material necessary to create an applique (scissors, glue, napkins, etc.).

Due to the fact that children of primary preschool age begin to engage in this craft, the designs for appliqués are chosen to be simple in both form and complexity of design.

Cut the napkin into 16 squares: 1. Cut the folded napkin in half along the fold line. You will get two squares, each square has two layers.

2. Fold each square in half lengthwise and cut along the fold line.

3. Fold each resulting rectangle (each rectangle has two layers) in half crosswise and cut along the fold line.

We got 16 squares. Then we take one of the squares and twist it onto a knitting needle. We compress the twisted tube on both sides to class=”aligncenter” width=”627″ height=”470″[/img] Remove from the knitting needle.

Thus, we prepare the required number of tubes of different colors.

Napkins are an easily accessible and inexpensive material that everyone definitely has in their home.

Crafts made from napkins differ from others in their volume and texture. They are original and unusual, not like classic appliqués made using colored paper using templates.

Children will definitely like these crafts, because this process is a very addictive and delightful pastime.

Each such instance will form one ball. The work must be done only with dry hands.
When all the berries are rolled, you need to stick each one onto a branch using PVA. Here you should use a glue brush.
The final part is cutting out and gluing green leaves onto the branch. After this, the application can be considered complete.

In a similar way, it is possible to create a bunch of different products, which are not at all difficult to come up with.

Applications for the little ones

Applications for the little ones are varied. Depending on the time of year, they involve creating snowmen, snowflakes, spring flowers, and rain. The lily of the valley applique made from napkins is very interesting.

The work is carried out in several stages.

Preparation of the workplace and materials. For appliqué, you will need a flat table covered with oilcloth for protection. All materials are prepared in advance.

Application "Cherry"

The next way to use napkins as a craft material is twisted flagella. Children of senior preschool age will be able to start creating a beautiful applique with the help of them, due to the fact that this method will be a little more difficult than the previous one.

For the child to start working, he will need three napkins, all of different colors - green, dark red or cherry, and any color that is not a single color.

To begin with, take a green napkin and cut it into equal squares, each of which is then cut into three rectangles.
After this, you need to take the resulting figure and twist it so that you get a thin rope; to do this, a piece of the product is held on one side, and on the other, at the same time, the sheet is twisted in the opposite direction. The action is repeated with each rectangular piece of napkin.
Once all the green rectangles are twisted, you can take on other colors and the whole technology is repeated again.
Having prepared all the parts, you need to start laying them out using prepared multi-colored strands.
Multi-colored flagella are taken first, and the edging of the future craft is laid out - leaves, berries.
Then the leaves are filled with green ones, and the cherries with red ones.
All parts should be attached to a sheet of paper using scattered glue. Once all the parts are glued on, take a colored marker and trace the edge of the image.
After this, the volumetric part of the design is carefully cut out and, using glue, pasted onto a previously prepared sheet of velvet colored paper, carefully pressed with a suitable object and removed until the product is completely dry.

After which the applique is used to decorate the room.

Application “Tree” using quilling technique

The next fascinating and unique method is quilling, which children in the middle preschool group can master. During creative work using this technology, you will need the following materials:

Paper of different colors;
Napkins of either one color or several, preferably consisting of three layers;
Scissors;
PVA glue;
Glue brushes;
Toothpicks.

Operating procedure:

The procedure for making an applique for children four to five years old should begin with preparing the background, which is made using colored paper (gluing sheets together).
A napkin of a non-uniform shade must be cut into identical strips four centimeters wide, which should then be folded, and this must be done more than once.
When all the parts are ready, take toothpicks and screw bent pieces of napkin onto them. Then they are released, and thus a spiral is obtained - the future leaves of the autumn tree.
As soon as the blanks for the crown are ready, you can begin making branches and the tree trunk itself. To do this, you need to take a brown napkin and cut it into strips, then glue it from the inside, creating something like a flagellum.
Then, using the resulting bundles, a tree trunk is assembled, to which branches with autumn leaves are glued.

There are many more interesting and similar napkin applications that can be found by consulting the relevant sources.

After studying them, you can choose what you like most, take the necessary material and start creating.

Progress of the lesson

Introductory part

The doll Katya comes to visit and says hello.

-Guys, do you like the birthday party? Of course everyone loves him. On this day, guests come to us and give gifts. Well, we try to prepare lots and lots of delicious things (sweets, cakes, pies, chocolates)

. We cover the table with an elegant tablecloth, place beautiful dishes, and lay out napkins for each guest. It’s Katya’s doll’s birthday today, but for some reason she’s very sad. I talked to her, and it turned out that she had prepared a treat: sweets. But there were no tablecloths, dishes or napkins. We should help them. In general, we found dishes and a tablecloth. But Katya still cries. It turned out that they would have many guests, but only one napkin - here it is. Do you want to help Katya? Then let's make a lot of beautiful napkins for her.

Main part

Examining a napkin. The teacher draws the children’s attention: “Here is a napkin, look carefully, how and what is it decorated with? What is this? Square? They can be used to decorate napkins and tablecloths. Today we will decorate a napkin so that it is the same as Katya’s. It draws children’s attention to the fact that the napkin is decorated with squares of different colors, but in all corners the squares are the same color.”

The teacher shows how to cut strips into squares: bend the strip in half and cut along the fold. Reminds me of the rules for gluing: “First, let’s lay out the shapes. We put glue on the entire brush, then we remove the excess on the edge of the jar. We coat the figure with glue, always on oilcloth, starting from the middle, gradually moving to the edges. Let’s put the brush down, take the figure with both hands and put it on the place where it was lying, press it with a cloth, blotting off the excess glue.”
