"Snowflakes-ballerinas"
I once saw paper ballerinas on the Internet on one page.
They looked elegant, graceful, and their skirts were in the shape of snowflakes.
And I really wanted, with my own hands,
Make similar ballerina snowflakes out of paper.
I drew it, cut it out, and it worked.
And here paper and plastic came in handy for me.
A long time ago, I figured out how to cut feathers out of paper.
And now I started decorating the skirts of ballerinas with the same colors.
And then I lightly covered the feathers with glitter,
Because real snow always sparkles.
And now, when the white winter comes, dropping snowflakes on the ground,
Under my ceiling, ballerinas have been twirling in dance for many years.

Cut out the silhouette of a ballerina from white paper (can be found on the Internet).
Fold a rectangle of white paper in half. Draw an arc above the fold line. Carefully cut along an arc.
Make frequent oblique cuts, not reaching the fold line.
Unfold the resulting feather. In the same way, cut the required number of paper feathers.
Decorate the ballerina's skirt with the resulting feathers, starting to glue them from the bottom edge.
Decorate the snowflakes and ballerina with glitter (gel glitter).
Attach several snowflakes and a ballerina to a white iris thread. Make a loop at the free end of the thread. Hang the resulting lightweight movable structure from the ceiling.
It’s better to make several of these pendants and depict ballerinas in different poses. From time to time, the imperceptible movement of air will cause the pendants to move, and you will be able to admire the pirouettes of graceful snowflakes-ballerinas.
My snowflakes-ballerinas have been delighting me for many years not only at home, but also in the art studio of children and colleagues. And with the arrival of spring, they go into a box and there they safely wait for the next arrival of winter, so that they can circle around the ceiling again.
I hope that they will please you with their dance !

For work we will need: twine, PVA glue, a can of paint, decorative elements (ribbon, sequins, beads, beads, blanks for volumetric shapes.
Now in stores you can see and purchase a variety of ready-made products for interior decoration or select decorative elements.
What kind of stars are those on the coat and on the scarf? They are all through, cut out, and if you take it, there is water in your hand? Well, of course snowflakes! Many people know how to carve.
PANNO "Snowflakes-ballerinas" To make a panel you need: - a frame, - 4 sheets of A4 paper, - white napkins, - a stapler,.
Hello, dear colleagues! Now the time has come when you can think about how and with what to decorate your group. There are a lot of options.
To make these ballerinas we will need a white sheet of thick paper, scissors, a glue stick, fishing line or “rain”, just a little.
To make the New Year's snowflakes shown in the photo, we will need A4 paper (cutting snowflakes from smaller sheets is extremely difficult, since the templates have very thin and elegant patterns), a pen or pencil, scissors and the desire to create.
Folding snowflakes according to patterns
Take a blank sheet of paper, mark the cutting line so that you get a square, and use scissors to cut off the excess paper.
Before the New Year, I want to decorate my house and do it somehow unusual. The best option for original decoration may be to use homemade accessories. For example, if you make snowflakes with your own hands and hang them throughout the house, the festive mood is guaranteed for a long time.
Paper snowflakes are made from white or colored paper, and you can hang them on a Christmas tree, as a garland or just as a pendant.
Snowflakes can be single or collected from several different ones. The ballerina in a snowflake skirt, gracefully dancing on a thin thread, looks especially original.
Such pendants, descending from the ceiling, can be made not only double, but also triple, and even more. It all depends on the size of the finished snowflakes, the length of the thread and the place where they will hang. For example, you can hang such garlands of short length above your desk so that they do not interfere. And along the curtains you can make a composition of snowflakes from ceiling to floor.
To cut out a snowflake, you need to take a sheet of A4 paper. It is folded diagonally and the excess strip of paper is trimmed to form a perfect square. The square must be folded diagonally several times so that the fold lines are clearly visible. The corner from which the snowflake will then be cut is folded as shown in the figure. You can cut out any pattern that suits your imagination.
Such a snowflake can become a beautiful and unusual skirt for a ballerina. By making several different snowflakes, you can dress each ballerina in her own individual outfit.
Ballerinas can also be different, for example, a girl balancing on one leg.
Or a gracefully curved dancer with her arms raised up. This figure is convenient to use because you can stretch a thread between its hands and hang it in the right place.
Another option for a ballerina to diversify the garland with different girls.
Each figure can be carefully transferred to a sheet of paper or printed out from the existing templates. Ballerinas can be of any size, but it is most convenient to place them on an A5 sheet, then two girls will fit on a landscape page.
You can cut out identical ballerinas with a simplified design. This option will look good on a garland. However, it is better for girls to make skirts from different snowflakes, otherwise completely identical models will look boring.
If you make ballerinas from multi-colored paper, this will add brightness and expressiveness to the decoration. And you can hang them on ordinary rain, preferably not very thick, but long, so that at least 6-8 ballerinas can fit on it.
If you hang such a garland along a wall, curtain or on a Christmas tree, the room will sparkle with new colors, and New Year’s magic will be felt all around. To make the ballerina symmetrical, you only need to cut out its half on a sheet of paper folded in half. The skirt, which is part of the girl, is needed so that the snowflake skirt does not fall off.
You can cut out the snowflakes themselves by folding the sheet into a corner, as usual. To do this, you also need to take a square as a basis. Small scissors and a little mischief and imagination will help you cut out funny and beautiful patterns from paper.
To put an openwork skirt on a ballerina, you need to keep it folded in half, then it will fit into even the smallest hole in the center of a snowflake. And then you can beautifully straighten both the ballerina and the snowflake.
For convenience, you can print a ballerina template, as shown in the figure. Although drawing it by hand and cutting it out will also be a very simple task.
Do not limit yourself in decorating your home only to purchased blanks and garlands. A little imagination and effort, and the house will plunge into the magical atmosphere of the New Year holiday.
Carrying out creative work to decorate “Snowflake-ballerina” from paper for windows or interiors would most logically be called one of the types of applique. This type of creativity has not lost its popularity for many years, but has only improved and taken on new interesting forms.
What will this work give us? Of course, pleasure, visual satisfaction. For children, it will help improve the ability to wield scissors, develop sensory and fine motor skills, train perseverance, and develop imagination and creativity. A ballerina snowflake will become an original highlight of the interior or help decorate the New Year tree.
Let's start the lesson
We present to your attention a step-by-step master class on how to make a craft that will appeal to both school-age children and adults.
Required materials: white paper, white cardboard, scissors, PVA glue with a brush, thread or fishing line.
Let's get started with the craft. The first necessary element, of course, is the ballerina template. For children, the task can be simplified by bending a sheet of cardboard and drawing a silhouette using a template or by hand.
Adults can take ready-made templates or diagrams for cutting out a ballerina. We will provide examples below.
Having decided on the method of preparing the ballerina, we draw and cut out the silhouettes. The ballerinas are ready.
Now it's the snowflake's turn. It will serve as the dancer's most beautiful tutu. From white paper, cut out a square with sides of ten centimeters.
Fold the square twice as shown in the photo.
From the resulting small square you need to make a triangle - bend it diagonally.
We attach the snowflake diagram to the resulting triangle and trace it. The drawing can be arbitrary.
Below are examples of snowflake patterns for cutting out.
Cut along the contour and unfold. The snowflake is ready.
We make a straight cut through the snowflake to the middle. We put our skirt on the fragile dancer.
Apply glue to the edges of the cut and glue it together. Let the craft dry. Snowflake ballerina is ready.
We attach a thread or fishing line to the hands of the snowflakes. The paper snowflake ballerina is ready. It will be beautiful if you mount them at different heights. It is convenient and practical to attach them using transparent tape.
It is very simple to give individuality to such a ballerina. You can combine techniques or simply decorate it with a bow, use colored or corrugated paper. You can enliven the dancer's silhouette by outlining the face or adding pointe shoes. The main thing is not to forget: each work is unique in its own way.
Napkin Dancer
Another option for making a paper dancer can be a ballerina made from napkins. There is hardly a person who can pass by such an original little thing. It’s hard to imagine, but its implementation is very easy and fun.
To make a ballerina from napkins you need: wire, napkins, PVA glue, brush, water, scissors, white thread.
An example of step-by-step work. Twist the silhouette of a person randomly from the wire. Trim off excess metal. The size of the doll may vary. Depends on the desire and size of the napkins.
Separate the layers of napkins. Cut or tear what you get into pancake ribbons. We dilute the glue a little with water and begin to wrap the silhouette, generously lubricating it with adhesive liquid.
This is what should happen at the end of the previous stage.
Take a whole napkin. Fold it as shown in the photo, pressing the bends well.
Open the napkin. And again we disassemble the napkin into layers.
We collect each layer into an arbitrary triangle and twist it. We don’t press the ends, we leave them fluffy.
We repeat the procedure described in paragraphs 4, 5 and 6 many times.
Let's start creating the ballerina's outfit. Glue it together at your own discretion. The blanks should be placed tightly to each other and in several balls - this way the dancer will look more airy and beautiful. We begin to shape the outfit from the skirt, and then move on to part of the torso.
When the workpiece has dried a little, take a white thread and tie the dress along the girl’s waistline. The napkin ballerina is ready. You can safely use it in the decor of your home, office, medical or educational premises. Due to the fact that its frame is made of wire, each such doll can take on various dance elements and poses.
This craft can keep both a school-age child and an adult busy. By using imagination, various materials for making: different types of napkins, threads, ribbons, fabric scraps, tulle, paints, beads, pearls, sparkles, paints, you can create a real masterpiece. It will look good in a composition, for example, with beads on a fishing line or balls of thread. Don't be afraid to experiment, everything will definitely work out!
We will show some examples of works, original solutions and decorative design of premises made from paper ballerinas.

Paper figures cut out on windows and walls - vytynankas - will help create a New Year's atmosphere. This selection includes silhouettes of New Year's heroes: Father Frost and Snow Maiden, snowmen, gnomes; Christmas trees, balls and bells, snowflakes, snow-covered houses, deer, bunnies and animals.
The templates can be easily printed on a sheet of white paper, cut out and pasted on the window with soapy water, or fixed in other corners of the New Year's interior. Vytynankas are suitable for decorating cards, posters and other New Year's crafts. But most often, paper protrusions are hung on windows to decorate the room both inside and outside.
With small protrusions you can decorate a window or create a composition on a windowsill or table; with larger stencils you can decorate the walls in a room or on the stage where the New Year's holiday will take place.
Here are the stencils for the silhouette cutting of the Snow Maiden and Father Frost. You can cut with thin scissors or a stationery knife; you will definitely need a backing board so as not to scratch the table. You can use a plastic cutting board or a piece of linoleum.
Silhouette paper cutout: Christmas tree
You can cut out the Christmas tree using a stencil as a silhouette, or you can make a symmetrical cutout by folding a sheet of paper in half. We make a standing Christmas tree in one of the following ways: glue two symmetrical Christmas trees onto an oval paper stand, or fold each Christmas tree in half and glue it together.
If you cut out two figures from tinted paper using the following stencil, you can connect them and get a beautiful three-dimensional New Year's composition. This composition will look great suspended from the ceiling or a lamp in the center of the room.
Paper protrusions: snowflakes and ballerinas
Snowflakes on windows are also vytynankas, perhaps the most common and popularly loved. Snowflakes can be very different, especially if the master uses all his imagination. You can create a symmetrical snowflake by folding the paper several times. If you try, you can even cut out snowflakes with stars at the ends of the rays.

If you cut out a large enough snowflake, you can place a completely independent composition inside it. For example, a New Year's snowman or a snowy forest.
Snowflakes can take the form of light snow ballerinas. To do this, cut out the silhouette of a ballerina separately, put an openwork snowflake on it and hang it by a thread. The result is a very delicate, airy decoration that can be hung from the ceiling or lamp.
Vytynanka: Christmas balls
Silhouettes of Christmas tree decorations can be cut out either in a symmetrical pattern or using an individual stencil. These decorations can be used to complement a composition on a window, decorate a Christmas tree, or attach them with threads to a chandelier or curtain.
Vytynanki: New Year's bells
We make carved bells using a stencil. If you glue translucent paper, for example, tracing paper, to the inside of the cutout, then such a bell can be used with a backlight effect.
Silhouette cutout: deer, sleigh, cart
Another fabulous New Year's hero is the deer. The delivery of the wizard Father Frost and the Snow Maiden is associated with it. We offer stencils for cutting out deer, carts and sleighs.
Paper cut: snowmen
Charming Snowmen are another character of the New Year holiday. It’s easy to cut out their figures symmetrically, or you can make a “family photo of Snowmen” or a composition with a Christmas tree and children.
Large protrusions look great on a plain curtain and can completely replace complex decorations.
Composition of silhouette clippings with backlight
With openwork paper cutouts you can decorate not only the window, but also create a three-dimensional panorama on the windowsill. It will be especially impressive if you put a garland or small lights inside the box.
Get involved in the design of New Year's decorations - paper figurines - together with your children. This is not only useful for developing imagination and training fine motor skills, but will also give you a lot of pleasure from joint creativity, and then from contemplating the resulting beauty!
