How to make a birthday figure with your own hands?

Children's birthday should take place in a special festive atmosphere. I would like to decorate the birthday room, and hang a large inscription in the hallway so that small guests are charged with positive and fun right from the threshold.

You can call for help from professional decorators. They will quickly hang expensive decor. But it is much more interesting to engage in the design of the interior with beautiful “little things” of their own manufacture to both parents and children. Joint creativity will have a fascinating time.

This article contains a variety of ideas for performing numbers for the birthday. You can make it from balloons.

But if such a design is tired, then arm yourself with scissors, cardboard, corrugated and colored paper, decor elements, threads and start work. The main thing in such an important matter is a good mood and a positive mood.

What to make a birthday figure from?

The numbers corresponding to the age of the birthday made of small balls are the most familiar way to decorate the room for us. Can it be something easier than placing an order for the desired figure in the nearest event to the agency? But if you make a figure with your own hands from any other material, then it will look unusual.

Do not give up the idea of \u200b\u200bindependent manufacture of a birthday figure, if you have little time. The number of cardboard is cut quickly, and the fabric and thread of the needlewoman are always at hand.

If the figure is not needed urgently, then you can print bright photos in advance or come up with something completely original. An interesting photo shoot to the birthday man in such a room with large numbers is guaranteed.

What are the methods of making numbers?

• A large number can be cut out of cardboard and decorated with what your imagination and resources are capable of.
• For the base, take the usual cardboard box of the preferred size. The contours of the desired number are planned on the cardboard. The figure is cut out by a clerical knife and decorated. This figure will be flat. It can be hung on the wall.
• If you need a volumetric figure or you have time and desire, then it is better to make a figure with which the birthday person will be able to play and rearrange from place to place if desired.
• To make the figure volume, you will need two identical cardboard blanks. But besides them, it will also be necessary to cut out long cardboard strips with even edges (the same width) to glue the sidewalls.
• The frame is collected easily with the help of a thermal pistol or a painting tape.

Decor of the numbers must be selected in accordance with the general style of design. Most often used the following materials:

• leg-split
• colored yarn
• bright fabric (organza, chiffon, atlas, velvet)
• floristic film that is used for packaging
• colored paper
• corrugated paper
• flowers from napkins

All these materials are used in order to wrap the base. But you can use their additional volume to the numbers. To do this, you need to make flowers with protruding petals from paper or fabric or make fluffy pompom of woolen threads, add different “pounds” and bows.

The figure is in eco-style

• To make a figure in an eco-style, you will need a cardboard base and twine. The base is gradually lubricated with glue and carefully wrapped with twine in a glued area.
• The finished figure can be painted with acrylic paint, or you can leave the twine with unpainted. This figure will become a decoration of any interior, and it will need very little time and effort to manufacture it.

Flower figure

• To make a number with a floral pattern, we need a lot of roses cut and glued from paper
• Flowers fit tightly to each other, filling the entire base
• This figure, even in the absence of another decor, will look excellent

The time spent on cutting paper flowers is compensated by the smiles of children and the joy of the birthday. After the holiday, the figure can be hung in the children's room until the child becomes older for a whole year

The figure from pompons

• To make a number from pompons, you will need a large number of wool pompons
• The process of filling the foundation of pompons is the same as paper flowers
• In the following sections, we will consider in more detail how to make beautiful numbers for the birthday man

Napkin's birthday figure

You can decorate the frame cut out of cardboard with napkin flowers. Having gained patience and cut out the same flower from ordinary napkins, you can please the birthday with the most fluffy number in the world!

Production process:

• We cut off the napkin flowers in unlimited quantities: we divide the foldily folded four -layer napkin into 4 squares
• We lay the squares with a flat pile and fix it in the center with a stapler or a piece of thin wire
• Square stack is cut to get a circle
• It remains only to cut the edges of the resulting circle, not reaching the center
• We raise the napkin petals and straighten them.
• So we will create fluffy flowers, which then you will only need to glue PVA glue to the base

Hopper -paper birthday figure

Flowers from corrugated paper look just gorgeous. They can be performed in two ways. You only need a large amount of corrugated paper of the desired color. The figure will turn out more beautiful if you glue flowers 2 or 3 different colors on it.

Method 1:

• Cut the paper with strips. Approximate dimensions in centimeters: 50 / 3.5. We follow the correct location of the “veins” of future flowers: they should reach along, and not across the flower.
• Next, you need to stretch the flower on one side to obtain waves. Such stretching is possible due to the "vein".
• We hold the stretched floral blanks tightly over one side with the waves up, and grab the base of the cash.
• We fix the lower part of the flower with an elastic band or thread in the tone of the paper.
• The softer corrugated paper, the more voluminous and fluffy the flowers are obtained.
• The walls of the cardboard base are glued with corrugated paper to hide possible gaps between the flowers.
• Flowers glue the base. To do this, it is convenient to use an adhesive thermal pistol. You can "plant" flowers on the usual PVA glue.

Method 2:

• Cut the corrugated paper into the same squares
• On the cardboard base, apply glue
• We wrap a pencil with corrugated paper, laying it with the central part to the rod
• We lower the lower part of the future flower in glue and apply to a cardboard basis
• So gradually fill the entire surface of the cardboard base with squares

Birthday inflatable numbers

Children's holiday is not complete without balloons. On your birthday you can do excellent wall decoration:

• small balls
  We draw the desired number
• we inflate the balls and fasten with bilateral tape on the base in a pre -drawn form

Birthday cardboard numbers

• The easiest option for making a cardboard figure is to draw it on a piece of cardboard or cardboard box and cut it out without bothering to create a volumetric product.
• The figure can be pasted with colored paper or spread with glue and sprinkled with tinsel. You can cut the stencil of the desired pattern or pattern, attach to the painted cardboard number and paint over the areas inside the stencil by contrasting paint.
• The volumetric base of cardboard are two identical details of the digits (the second can simply circle) and long strips of cardboard of the required thickness for the sidewalls.
• The parts are connected with a glue gun, and for the reliability of the design and better fixation, stiffener ribs are glued from the inside.
• The volume number can be set vertically directly on the festive table. If you make a horizontal site from cardboard, then the figure can be put on the floor. Then it will become a gorgeous attribute for photography.
