We create do-it-yourself animal crafts for the home and garden. Pets and pets How to make DIY pets

If you want to involve your child in some kind of creativity, then start creating DIY animal crafts with him. This develops perseverance, accuracy and attention. Also involved is shallow and observant. Such activities bring parents and children closer, as adults are directly involved in the creation of an unusual product.

craft material

Products can be made by hand for any holiday from the four seasons of the year. It can be decorations for summer cottages, garden areas, houses, gardens. Crafts can participate in landscape design, as well as in the design of a kindergarten.Of course, if in the manufacture of crafts it is necessary to use working tools such as saws, drills, secateurs, then such work is not for a child. It is better to involve him in the manufacture of crafts from small parts.

A personal zoo can be created using any technique. It can be origami, quilling, modeling, embroidery, beading. The animal you decide to make may be a symbol of the coming year or the years in which family members were born. When you make animal crafts with your own hands, you can combine several techniques. For example, the muzzle and hooves of a pet can be made from baked clay, and wool can be made from fleece of the desired color.

bottle crafts

Basically, such products are placed in the garden or in the garden. Since the bottle is not afraid of weather changes, it is durable and does not require maintenance. There can be both wild animals and domestic animals in the garden. An example is the original piglet.

For this craft, a container of any size and diameter is suitable, at your discretion. Naturally, it needs to be painted with waterproof paint in pink, imitating the skin of a pig. From the side of the screw cap, draw large surprised eyes with cilia. At the top, cut the bottle on both sides to insert the ears that you cut out from the spare container. Paint the ears with the same paint as the body. On the lid, draw a patch in the form of two black dots. The pig can be used as a flower bed. To do this, cut a rectangular hole on the back, fill in the earth and sow flower seeds. The whole family will look more original, and not just one craft. A pet created with your own hands will delight the eye not only during the flowering of plants, but also during the rest period.

Felt sheep

When you make animal crafts with your own hands, feel free to use felt different colors. Let's create, for example, sheep. Pink felt will serve as wool, lilac felt will serve as a muzzle, we will use white for the peephole, but we will make hooves from black felt. You can find templates, or you can make a pattern yourself. The body of a lamb looks like a cloud that needs to be cut out of the appropriate piece of material. Slightly elongated head with ears, three times smaller than the body, cut out of lilac felt. On a white background, draw an infinity sign, depicting future eyes.

We put this sign on the head of the animal and sew on the eyes - beads, piercing both materials. Embroider mouth and nose with black thread. Glue the head to the body. Next, cut rectangles from lilac felt, squares from black. Glue the legs to the hooves, and then glue the parts to the body. Here is an original DIY craft!

I want to warn you right away that the house, the corral for horses and the fence were made for us by the grandfather of our pupil. For which many thanks to him! I just betrayed these amazing buildings aesthetic appearance. See what I got.

For we need to make a layout:

Glue (PVA, Liquid nails, "Titanium");

Varnish on wood;

Newspaper, white paper, napkins;

Felt (white, green, yellow);

Sintepon;

Mouline threads;

Toothpicks;

Plasticine;

artificial grass;

Stencil-hole puncher "leaves";

artificial turf;

figurines pets;

Scissors;

Sewing machine;

Manual jigsaw

So, first I painted the house and the horse paddock, made in advance, with gouache and varnished them.



Then these models (house, paddock) I glued it to the plywood with titanium glue.


Getting Started tree making. I used the papier-mâché technique. I drew stencils of trees on thick cardboard and cut them out.


Next, we glue our frame of trees with newspaper, white paper and napkins using PVA glue. I waited for complete drying and started painting the trees, then glued the leaves made with a stencil hole punch to the crown of the trees, varnished them.




We glue the corral for pets. We paint it with gouache and varnish it, and then glue it to plywood.


We sew a lake from blue fabric and stuff it with padding polyester. We manufacture decorative ornaments (water lilies made of felt) and glue it all to the plywood.


We glue the trees to plywood and cut out an artificial lawn in the shape of plywood, to which we tie dandelions from floss threads. Cutting a path from at home, leading to the lake, we fill it with millet, which we cover with varnish. All this is also glued to the plywood with glue.

Animals - in general, the material is very grateful, after the craft is ready, they will certainly not be another "dust collector", but will actively participate in all the games and funs of the kids. In addition, a variety of animals can be a great gift for a loved one, friends, acquaintances.

You can apply your inspiration to create your own personal zoo in almost any technique. You can draw inspiration from modular origami, modeling, quilling, beading, embroidery. You just have to choose your favorite animal that you will make. It can be symbols of the year according to the eastern calendar, your child's favorite animals or just cute and funny little animals. Of course, if your child is fond of snakes, or insects, then you will have to make them too, forgetting about kittens and piglets.

You can combine several techniques, for example, and salt dough, and make such a wonderful couple of sheep, to coincide with Valentine's Day or your anniversary. To do this, you will need to make a base from salt dough. Take flour and salt in equal parts, knead the dough with water, mold it into cylinders with ears, spouts and four legs, dry it in the oven over very low heat. Now it's the turn to paint the muzzles of the sheep with the help of paints, draw their eyes and rosy cheeks. You can make "wool" using faux fur or strips of white fleece, which are quilled and glued to the surface.

It is also recommended to use schemes with animals. Crocodiles, snakes, dogs are very popular. Once you have mastered the simple beaded crafts, animals can become voluminous, large in size. They are woven with the help of a flexible wire, which, folding into horizontal circles with strung beads, gives the craft the necessary volume. Try to execute volumetric weaving, for example, such a cute owlet. It will surely become one of your baby's favorite toys.

Well, it will not be superfluous to say about everyone's favorite origami. Animals can be in the form of applications, folded using the origami technique, made of corrugated paper using trimming. But with the help of colored clothespins, you can create a real masterpiece. To do this, you need to draw and cut out an animal from thick paper, but do not cut out legs for it. Clothespins will serve as our legs, which will give the flat figure the necessary stability.

It is worth noting that creating various figures with your own hands is also useful for adults. Such original things can decorate your home, and also become a good gift for close people.

Make beautiful thing can be made from almost any improvised materials. A master class will help you cope with a task of any complexity. step by step manufacturing animals. Consider the most popular options.

Puff pastry

Everyone remembers very well how we loved to sculpt various figures from multi-colored plasticine in childhood. But there is an alternative to the chemical composition for modeling - this salty dough. Such material for needlework is more convenient and safe.

Salt dough products will last for many years if properly processed. It is also worth noting that the price of the material is very low. Let's consider in detail what an animal can be made of.


For cooking yourself simple option dough you will need one glass of salt, one glass of water and three glasses of flour. It is better to purchase finely ground salt of the "Extra" category. Mix all the ingredients and knead the dough thoroughly.

Finished crafts must be dried. To do this, place them in the oven, set the minimum heating temperature and keep for several hours with the door slightly open.


Repeat this procedure for three days. Using this method, you can make crafts on the theme of animals of any complexity. Add food coloring to the dough if necessary. You can also color the finished product.

How to make animal figurines

When making a three-dimensional figurine from dough, it should be borne in mind that its size should not be significant. Thus, the dough can dry well.

If you need to make a larger figure, you should initially make a frame from wire, foil or other materials. The prepared frame is covered with dough and the necessary animal is formed.

The algorithm for making products from salt dough is the same. If necessary, you can use detailed instructions how to make an animal. Initially, you need to make individual parts. Alternately fasten the parts of the animal's body, starting with the largest part.

We sculpt a pig

In order to make a piglet, you need an oval body. On one side, attach a small "pill" of dough, which will serve as a snout. And on the opposite side - the tail.

At the last stage, it is required to cover the finished product with paint. color pink. Using a black marker, draw eyes and two dots on the snout.


Making a teddy bear

A cute teddy bear made with your own hands can be a wonderful gift. It is quite simple to make it, following the tips on the photo of crafts on the theme of animals.

From the prepared dough, form a round ball that will be used as a head. On it you need to fashion a muzzle and fix the ears.

Make an elongated body, front and rear legs of the animal, connect them together. To securely fasten the top and bottom of the product, you need a toothpick.

Insert a toothpick into the torso so that it replaces the neck and protrudes slightly above the surface. Fasten the bear's head on the protruding part of the toothpick.

To decorate the resulting figure, you can make a heart from salt dough, which is placed in the front paws of the bear. By placing a barrel of honey together with hearts, an ordinary bear will turn into the main character of the cartoon "Winnie the Pooh".

Using toilet paper rolls

To create original animals with your own hands, you can use any means at hand, as well as leftovers from household items. From ordinary bushings left over from a roll of toilet paper, you can make various toys.

To make a cute bunny you need a sleeve gray color(can be painted), gray and pink cardboard, several bundles of straw, cotton wool.

A circle and two semicircles are cut out of a sheet of gray cardboard. They will serve as a head and paws for the product. Place the sleeve vertically, glue a circle on the lower base, at the bottom of which the paws are glued with the cuts of the circles down.

Next, you need to cut and glue two ears and a round nose from a sheet of pink cardboard. Glue some straws under the nose circle to make a mustache. Eyes for a bunny can be purchased at a needlework store or painted.

At the same level with the nose on the upper base, you need to glue the tail from a bunch of cotton wool. Such toy animals can be used as decorative coasters.

pom pom animals

The method of creating toys from pompons is popular among needlewomen. To make a pom pom you will need a sheet of cardboard, scissors and knitting threads (yarn).

From cardboard we cut out two identical circles with round holes, similar to a bagel. Fold the circles together and tightly wind the threads around their base.

Cut the threads along the top line, separate the rings a little and tie them with a thread in the middle. Pulling out the cardboard base, you will get a fluffy pompom.

From such blanks you can make different types animals. The easiest way to make a caterpillar or a snake in this way. Fasten a row of pompoms with a thread, forming a chain. Attach the caterpillar's eyes, tongue or horns to the first pom-pom and the toy is ready. Many interesting options for crafts from pompons with a description of the rules for their manufacture can be found on the Internet.
