Separately we make and sew on the comb, beard, beak and eyes. You can decorate the top of the chickens to your liking with flowers (as in the photo), beads, rhinestones or even feathers, additionally quilting the sides over the entire surface or just along the edge. Don't forget about the legs - we make them from thick thread, and the buttons sewn together will serve as the paws. You can make several of these birds and hang them by a ribbon. Cheerful cockerels The master class on making such an installation is extremely simple. Cockerels are made from pieces of multi-colored fabrics shaped like an egg. We give it a resemblance to the original by sewing on the comb, beak and eyes, and at the bottom we attach a little straw to make something like a nest. We hang the birds on thick threads of different lengths, threading beads through their ends. At the final stage, we attach the cockerels to a bar, stick or branch, providing a rope on it so that it is convenient to hang our craft from it. The ends of the branch can be decorated with several leaves of paper or fabric, fixing them with glue. Rooster-heart If there are cute trinkets, then this craft is one of them in the first place. You can make it from multi-colored felt, experimenting with color combinations, because the cockerel, as you know, is a motley bird. So, the base of 2 parts is cut out in the shape of a heart, the middle is filled with cotton wool, the edges are carefully hand-stitched. A bright tail, comb-beard, beak, eyes and wings are cut out and carefully sewn to the base. A braid is sewn in the middle, by which it will be convenient to hang the cockerel wherever you want it. This master class involves making cockerels of various sizes and in any quantity. Birds can be an excellent Christmas tree decoration; you can even make a garland out of them, or you can hang them somewhere in the house, where this cheerful company will delight the eye and soul.

The voluminous cockerel fits perfectly into both holidays and everyday interiors, making it brighter, more interesting, and more fun. He looks funny and always cheers up everyone who looks at him. So, first we choose the fabric from which we will sew the cockerel. It is better to opt for bright materials with a colorful, positive pattern - peas, flowers, checks, stripes. A plain fabric is also suitable, from which you can make various bold combinations. Procedure: cut out a square bag from fabric; we sew into its edges a pre-cut comb, nose and beard; place cotton wool or a special filler inside the bag; sew up the remaining edges to create a pyramid cockerel. If you really want to, you can make the bird's legs out of red thread - it will look very funny. Such a cockerel will sit well where he is assigned.

If possible, we make the body and wings from different contrasting or well-combined fabrics. The crown comb should also be voluminous. It is sewn to the head like a crown. The beak and beard can be made of felt, and black beads will serve as eyes. As a finishing touch, a straw bow is sewn onto the neck, and our gentleman cockerel is ready!

This master class is quite simple and requires only a competent selection of components and patience. You can lay out the cockerel on fabric or paper, colored or plain.

Beads for eyes
- hot glue
- egg cartons
- primer
- acrylic paints
- balloon
- old newspapers
- scissors
- 2 beads
- PVA glue

How to do:

Cut two cones from the egg tray and cut one side of each cone. Connect the cut cones with the cuts facing down. You will end up with one large cone with 4 petals. To create the neck and head, connect 5 cones together. Towards the top they will expand and become larger in size. Cut a comb from the side of the tray. Cut out a beak from the lid, which will consist of two parts. Feathers are also created from cones. They are fixed on top of the cardboard with hot glue. The length of one wing is 15 cm. Make blanks for the tail in a similar way.

The next stage is creating the paws. Bend the shape of the legs from copper wire. In order to give the desired effect, twist the corrugated tube. Insert the remaining tail between the corrugated and metal tube. For strength, fill the lower part with glue. Cut the claws from the bottom. They should be long and narrow. They need to be secured with glue. Paint the legs and torso with spray paint.

Prepare a utility knife and construction foam. All cuts should be neat and even. You can cut out the parts separately. Finally, glue them together with glue. You can bring it to the desired shape with sandpaper. Additionally, treat with acrylic putty, wait until it dries completely, plaster again and treat with PVA glue. This will allow the paint to adhere better.

Start coloring from the head. Glue the eyes on the head. To create a beautiful scallop, make a pattern on paper, transfer it to polystyrene foam, cut it out, and glue it to a suitable place. Start preparing the mold for the wings. Leave the back open. Cover the upper part of the wings with feathers made from corrugated bottles. Fold the last row inside the wing. Paint over it, leave to dry, attach with perforated tape and a self-tapping screw. Make a tail. Take the mesh and bend it. Cut feathers from bottles. Paint them separately on both sides. Apply black first, and then a little blue. Attach the feathers with wire to the mesh. Once the paint has dried, cut the feathers into two more pieces to make the tail appear even fuller.

There should be 2 of each part. Cut the head from white fabric, the upper part of the wing and body from blue-green fabric, and the lower part of the wing and tail from black fabric. Make the beard, paw, beak, comb and eyes from colored paper. Sew all the details for the head. Sewing the comb can be a little difficult. The fact is that it is wider than the head. It is better to sew it on the outside. Glue the eyes from colored paper.

DIY cockerel costume:

For the body, make allowances of 1.5 cm. Connect the parts from the inside. Sew the tip of the foot inside. Sew the wings on the outside, put soft filling inside.

Sew the neck to the body. Fill the connected parts with cotton wool. You need to fill it through the hole in the tail. The hole is very small, so you need to fill the craft with cotton wool in small portions. You may need to use tweezers. Sew the tail parts using an outer seam and fill it with cotton wool.

The paws can be made from cardboard or a piece of fabric. Select the fabric of the desired size and color, and make several square pieces. Trim the ends and sew the oblong legs. Fill with cotton wool. Sew the legs, wings, and tail to the body. Cut without touching the seams. The do-it-yourself cockerel toy is ready.

Cockerels made of paper and on paper

Making cards with the kids

If you are not a professional cardmaker, then before you start creating cards, be sure to read our article “Learning to make New Year cards with your own hands using the Scrapbooking technique.” In it you will not only find many ideas, but also get acquainted with the basic rules for creating postcards.

Any cockerel drawn by your child can be placed on a postcard. If it’s difficult for your child to figure out how to draw a rooster with his own hands, then show him this step-by-step instructions:

And then, it’s a matter of technology. Cut out the cockerel and make it the centerpiece of the composition. For example, your card can be this simple but cute. In your work, use New Year's paper and a bright red ribbon, add snowflakes, twigs and other holiday paraphernalia. Once you have a basic idea, the process of creating a card becomes much easier!

Photo from the site http://itsapatchworklife.blogspot.ru

If your child likes to color black and white pictures, give him this opportunity. Print the card template with a cockerel on thick cardboard and let your child get to work. Next, by cutting out a ball blank, you can add voluminous snowflakes to the card, glue half-beads imitating New Year's balls, etc., etc. Give free rein to your and your baby's imagination))

YOU WILL NEED IT

You will find 8 more templates for coloring, as well as 2 step-by-step instructions for drawing more realistic roosters in the archive, which you can download quickly and for free!

Take note of the idea with a cockerel on a stick, like on Elena Yurchenko’s postcard. Her cockerels are cut out of felt, or you can cut them out of paper.

Roosters made of colored paper

An applique made of colored paper can also be placed on a greeting card. But such an application can itself act as a postcard. To draw and carefully cut out all the details, children will need the help of their parents, but they can glue them themselves.

Olga-15 suggests making funny cockerels out of paper in her master class.

The Rooster blank is a rectangular sheet of flexible paper or thin cardboard, folded in half lengthwise. Its size is 13.5x10 cm. We make 7-10 inclined slits along the fold line (approximately every 1 cm). Their angle of inclination is 50-70 degrees, and their depth is ¾ of the height of the folded sheet.

Ekaterina Ivanova in her video tutorial shows how to make a red rooster using the Origami technique:

Roosters using Quilling technique

A very interesting idea is to lay out only a luxurious rooster tail from quilling paper. It's not as hassle as laying out a whole rooster, and it can turn out very impressive! Here is a rooster without a tail as a basis (see the photo below for how it looked in the original).

Print it on a color printer, and then fantasize about the tail. As an example, here is one such work (although the tail here is modest, but you will try, right?))

And if you are not afraid to make a whole rooster using the Quilling technique, then you can use this ready-made postcard as a basis:

Or this template:

A cheat sheet on the basic elements of Quilling to help you:

Button applique

And here are absolutely stunning handsome roosters, made of multi-colored buttons, half-beads, rhinestones and beads! You can take the contours of the cockerels from our archive as a basis (link just above).

Crochet cockerels

Many needlewomen are familiar with the crochet hook and will be happy to knit a cockerel from multi-colored threads. And Krestik will help you decide on a model and offer several master classes on this type of needlework.

You can also buy knitted cockerels from Svetlana.

Felt roosters

The fastest and easiest options for creating a symbol of 2017 are felt roosters. The material is easy to process, holds the shape of the toy well, and does not require processing of seams. On the contrary, hand stitches along the face of the product give it a special flavor and charm.

Fur interior toys

Oksana Svyatkovskaya will show her vision of a rooster and show how to sew it correctly using ready-made patterns. Her Rooster is made of faux fur, but who’s to say that it doesn’t happen or that it’s not good?)

In the workshop Everything for creativity (dljatvorchestva) there are a lot of blanks for painting and decoupage. Choose and create!

This is the beauty you can get:

If you don’t want to make a souvenir in the shape of a rooster, then you can decorate any wooden surface with an image of a rooster. The scope for creativity here is simply limitless!!! Here are just a few examples for inspiration:

Roosters felted from wool

Some craftswomen make wool toys that look like real ones! Let's admire and be inspired! And if you really want to buy one of these beauties, then look for them at the Masters Fair (the link is on each photo).

Elenia collected in one place many different Roosters felted from wool and suggested to MK how to create one of them. It turns out very cute!

Roosters embroidered with cross stitch, beads and ribbons

Perhaps you love embroidery more than other types of needlework. Then you can place the symbol of the year on a pillowcase, decorate it in the form of a panel, a picture in a frame or a brooch. The main thing is that the image of the Rooster warms your soul. And if you give away your work, find out the preferences of the recipient.

You will find more than 50 different patterns for embroidering roosters and cockerels in a special album
