Despite the diversity of manufacturing companieschildren's products, the doll industry has recently become noticeably impoverished — For some reason the toys are the same in all stores. Their quality also leaves much to be desired. Here the thought involuntarily appears that the best toy for a child will be the one that you make for him yourself from scrap materials. For example, old gloves.
Business in hands
DIY glove toys - absolutelya new type of needlework that stands alongside crafts made from socks, nylon tights and other things. Their beauty is that now you don’t need to throw away your old favorite thing - you can use it to make something useful for you and your child. To make, for example, a funny little hare from a glove, you will need the following materials:
For the product, it is better to choose fluffy gloves made of mohair or other fleecy material. Then the toy will be soft, and uneven seams will be hidden by pile.
- Put the gloves in front of you with your fingers down the little fingers outside.
- Cut out the middle and ring fingers on both gloves together with a piece of adjacent fabric in the form of a wedge - you do not need these parts.
- Cut the remaining parts of the glove in half so that you have one detail with a large, index finger and part of the tissue to the wrist, and the other with the little finger and part of the tissue to the wrist.
- Cut off excess tissue and sew the bases of little fingers to each other - it's a head with ears.
- Now sew together the details with the thumb and forefinger - these are the parts of the hare's body with neck, handles and legs.
- Tightly fill the trunk with filler, stuff the ears and sew details to each other.
Now your bunny is ready!Add doll eyes or button eyes to it, decorate its ears or neck with an elegant bow made of ribbon, attach antennae made of wire - give free rein to your imagination so that your glove toy turns out better than any store-bought one!
Using a creative approach to the above method, gloves can be made not only from a hare, but also from other funny animals.
Cat
Since mittens are most often made grayor striped, it would be a shame not to use them to make a toy cat! To do this, cut off the middle finger and little finger of the glove at the base. The hole from the middle finger is sewn up, and the finger itself needs to be sewn to the place of the little finger. Now, at the place where the tail is attached on the cat’s back, you need to make a vertical incision and sew the little finger there. The body of the future cat is tightly stuffed with filler and pulled tightly together in the neck area. The cat’s head needs to be stuffed only to the middle, after which the glove sleeve is sewn up from the edges - this is how the ears are formed. The finished Murzik can also be decorated with buttons, beads and ribbons.
Chanterelle
To make a fox, you need to choose a bright glove - red or orange. In extreme cases, yellow and red will do. The body is made according to the cat principle.
The cuff of the glove is cut off for the head.The upper part is sewn up according to the cat stitch principle. After this, the head is stuffed halfway, and the remaining hole is gathered with a thread to create a sharp nose. The head is sewn to the body. The red glove toy is ready! By the way, such toys can also be used for home puppet theater.
Octopus
An octopus from a glove is created even easier thanother toys! Just fill it with stuffing, sew up the sleeve and decorate it with button eyes. An ugly sewn-up area can be disguised with a homemade wig, hat or hairpin - the toy will turn out to be flirty with such decoration.
