For 2022, you can make the most beautiful, but simple DIY crafts. For example, a calendar magnet or a small desk calendar in the form of the symbol of the year - the tiger.

Materials:

• foamiran 2 mm thick;
• vinyl magnet;
• floristic wire;
• pastel;
• acrylic paints, brush;
• printed calendar;
• glue, scissors.

Master Class:

We cut out all the necessary details using templates from foamiran of orange, pink, white and black colors. Oranges, pinks and whites are tinted with dark ocher pastels, but brown or red can also be used

• White eyes are best tinted with black. Apply pastel to the edge only. The middle of the ears can be tinted with pink. In the center of the head with a white pastel finger, make two spots to highlight the face a little.
• We apply the part of the head to the hot iron, heat it well, then carefully remove it, apply it to the surface, align the edges, but do not press the middle.

• In the same way, we heat the front legs, give them volume, then apply the white parts of the ears, all the pink parts to the iron. We heat the nose very well, we also add volume to the eyes.
• We glue the pads to the hind legs: first, a large part, and then distribute four small ones from above in the form of an oval.

• We glue the details of the peephole together - we glue the black ones onto the white ones.
• Apply glue to the orange part of the ear along the long and lower edge and connect it to the white part. We collect the second ear in the same way.

• For the base, we take orange foamiran, apply the head and body, mark the top and bottom, glue the magnet.
• Turn the base over, glue the body, apply a layer of glue to the inner contour of the head, glue it to the base and press it, but only the edges.
• We cut off the excess material along the contour, but you can retreat 1-2 mm from the edge.

• We glue the legs onto the base, and then we also cut them along the contour.
• Apply glue to the lower edge of the ear, apply it to the head, press and hold until the glue completely hardens, in the same way we glue the second ear.

Now we glue the eyes, the nose, draw stripes on the head with brown acrylic paint

We tint the edges of the front legs with white paint and paint on the eyes in the same color. We draw cilia, eyebrows with black paint, select the line of the muzzle, draw the mouth and antennae, but you can just put white dots

• We slightly tint the edges of the ears with brown paint.
• Now we take 2 pieces of floral wire 6 cm long, at the ends we make loops.
• Fold it together, fold it first at an angle of 90 ° C, fold it about 1-1.5 cm. After that, we retreat 6-9 mm from the fold and make another fold at an angle of 90 ° C.
• As a result, you should get hooks that we glue to the body, and close them with a white belly on top.

• From the orange foamiran we cut out 2 strips measuring 1 × 8, 5 cm, twist into a roll, glue to the edge of the base legs and glue the front legs on them.
• We glue the hind legs, print and insert the calendar leaves.

If you work with children, then all the small details, for example, eyes, pads on the paws, can not be cut out, but simply drawn.
