Excellent and colorful crafts with children can be created from ordinary disposable tableware. Cute animals: pigs, cows, dogs, cockerels and hens are obtained from such simple materials that we usually use in Everyday life and for single use only.
If you don’t know what to do with your little fidget, I propose to dream up and make a do-it-yourself rooster craft with us.
To create a cockerel, we need the following materials:
- disposable cardboard plates large and small
- gouache paint
- artistic brush
- colored cardboard
- thick white paper
- plastic eyes for toys
- scissors
- glue stick
- thermal gun
- waxed cord
Craft "Rooster" from paper plates for children - a master class with a photo:
Let's take two disposable cardboard plates - one large for the body of the rooster, the second small for his head.
Let's prepare gouache paints, an art brush and a glass of water. Take brown paint and dip the brush into it and completely paint both plates. After that, we will set them aside to dry, and in the meantime we will take care of the details. 
Print out the template with the details. 
On thick white paper (I prefer to work with watercolor paper), transfer the rooster wing template. 
Cut out the wings in the amount of two parts. 
We paint each wing with brown paint and also send it to dry. 
On colored, preferably bright, cardboard, we translate beautiful feathers from the template. We need five feathers, in my case two light green, two yellow and one red. 
From red cardboard we cut out a scallop and a cockerel's beard. 
We cut out a beak from yellow cardboard, and paws from orange. 
The wings dried up and took on this look, just what we need. 
Now let's start assembling the cockerel. To do this, we heat our thermal gun to desired temperature. You should be careful when working with such a tool, the glue is very hot when heated and you can burn yourself - follow the safety precautions.
The gun is hot and ready to go. We glue a small plate, i.e. the head of the rooster to the body (large plate). 
We put on the wings hot glue and glue them on the sides of the body. 
In the lower part of the body, place the paws on the hot glue. 
Now take a glue stick and put it on the beard, after which we glue the beard just below the center of the head. 
We place a beak on top of the beard. 
At the top of the head, of course, we glue a bright scallop. 
We glue the eyes of the cockerel, having previously removed protective film on the back of the eye. 
We glue bright feathers together to make a tail. 
Flip the cock over reverse side and glue our tail on the back with hot glue. 
We cut off 20 cm of waxed cord, fold it in half and tie a knot at the ends. 
Glue the resulting loop between the comb and the upper tail feather.

There is nothing complicated, so this craft can be done for the new year and with the children. By the way, it can be not only a cockerel, but also any other animal.
After the glue dries, simply pierce the ball with a needle and pull the remnants out of the frame. We have the body of the rooster and its head - if you decide to use two balls.

Simple rooster crafts are made from multi-colored sheets of felt: just cut out the necessary parts and stick them on top of each other - you get an easy flat craft. But more complex voluminous felt figures will already have to be sewn, and here it is better to use ideas already created by someone. Here are four ready-made schemes on how to make a felt rooster yourself, it remains only to download, print, apply to fabric and cut out:

9. Rooster from plastic bottles
Plastic bottles are a very popular material for country and children's crafts. Here we already wrote, and today we will tell you how to make a rooster out of them. The easiest craft option is to take one bottle and decorate it with the symbol of the New Year using colored paper, buttons, disposable tableware and any other materials at hand.
More complex options are the creation of voluminous roosters with which you can decorate the cottage. Here one can no longer do without abstract imagination, the ability to create the necessary forms and combine different colors, since there are simply no ready-made schemes for such figures. You will have to cut out the “feathers” for the tail and plumage yourself, make a comb and collect it all into a single shape. But for some, these birds turn out just like living ones - see for yourself in the photo:
10. Crafts from salt dough - rooster
Another popular material for children's crafts is salty dough. It is not difficult to make it, sculpting is as simple as from plasticine, but at the same time the figures are stronger and more durable - you can not be afraid that your child will break everything just because he squeezed his fingers a little more than necessary on the toy.
Salt Dough Cockerel Recipe:
Mix in a bowl 200-250 grams of flour and half a glass or a little more than fine sea or ordinary table salt. Add about 150 grams of water and mix everything thoroughly. At the end, pour in 20-30 grams of glue - it is better to use PVA, so that the dough keeps its shape better and the figures do not fall apart.
Next, we begin to sculpt a figure - we make a torso, add a head, attach wings and a tail to it, and also do not forget about the scallop and beak. After we paint with gouache or some special paints. We make all the details separately, and then glue them together with glue or water. For the manufacture of small parts and shaping them, use a scalpel or a thin and sharp knife; when working with children, it is better to take safe plastic tools- a spatula or something that will help you make cuts and create the necessary elements.

Craft - fiery rooster
After all, everyone remembers that 2019 is the year of the fiery rooster, which means that if you are already making a figurine, then you should focus on these bright colors. It can be a red rooster, orange, yellow, or you can combine all these shades in one toy. You can make these rooster crafts from different materials- from felt and shreds, from fabric and paper, from plastic bottles, cups and other disposable tableware.

Volumetric craft rooster with children
If a flat figurine is not to your liking, why not make voluminous crafts in the form of a rooster, which can also be Kindergarten give to children and give to friends for the new year? We have already talked about how to crochet a cockerel or sew patches or fabrics - this is the most popular way to make voluminous toys. Crafts in the garden for the year of the rooster are easiest to do from paper, napkins or plasticine, and if everything is clear with plasticine, then with paper - you can use various ways, for example, first make a cone from colored paper, and only then turn it into a cockerel. You can also use techniques such as volumetric quilling or plain or corrugated paper, origami, papier mache and the use complex schemes and patterns. Someone generally manages to make a rooster from cotton pads and sticks, and for a Christmas tree - from Christmas balls, cereals, pasta, coffee beans, cones, chestnuts, acorns and other natural material.

The technology is simple: we draw a cockerel on a piece of paper - parents can do it, and if it’s difficult to draw it yourself, you can always download a ready-made stencil, print it out and use it for decoration. Next, with a brush, apply glue to the entire surface that you will fill with natural material. It remains to pour the grits and let the glue dry. After that, just shake off the extra grains and get the finished craft. Cunning: if you use several different cereals, then so that they do not mix, it is better to apply layers in turn, “painting” with glue only the areas of the picture that are needed now. But laying out a panel of beans or peas is already more difficult - here you have to put the beans in even rows to each other, after also applying glue to the paper. Here's what you can get:

Such a craft as a rooster from a plastic bottle is complex in its execution. A needlewoman who wishes to make such a product should be excellent with scissors and other materials that will be used in her work. Of course, it's difficult. But if you have patience and at least basic skills, then everything can work out for you. In this publication, we decided to tell you about what cockerel crafts you can make for the New Year from plastic bottles.
What options for cockerels can be made from a plastic bottle
The first version of the cockerel.
This cockerel belongs to the options for the simplest crafts. For its manufacture, it is worth using several plastic bottles of various colors. If you have bottles all of the same color at home, then you simply paint them with acrylic paints. Before you paint the bottle, it must be washed well and cleaned of labels. In this case, the paint will be able to lie flat on the product.
Turn the painted bottle upside down. Put the bottle neck on a stick or any rod. Using a marker, mark the markings that will indicate the location of the scallop and wings.
Now take an empty bottle of shampoo. It is worth cutting out the beak of a rooster from it and sticking it to the bottle.
From other plastic bottles cut out: tail feathers, crest, wings.
Glue the bottle itself and fix the individual parts of the cockerel on the bottle.
Attach the tail to the bottle with a stapler or self-tapping screws.
And in order for the craft to turn out beautiful, your tail must be magnificent.
The second option is a cockerel.
Craft a rooster from a plastic bottle with your own hands can be done in another version. This version of the craft is a little more difficult to make. And all because the wings and tail of this rooster will consist of a huge number of fringed feathers.
The third option for making a rooster.
The next rooster craft should also be made from plastic bottles. However, in this case, you will need a lot of plastic containers. And in this case, you have to work hard.
They begin to create this craft by making two holes in a large bottle that are needed for the legs. Then make an incision in the part that is opposite the side with the holes.
The tube should be bent, threaded through and secured.
From a couple of plastic bottles it is worth making cockerel toes. For this purpose, it is necessary to cut off the expanding part from the bottle and cut out three fingers for the rooster from it. In this case, each finger must be made sharp.
Put on the corrugated tubes on your legs, and after that you must fix the prepared paws.
In order to make the head, you need to use a piece of foam that needs to be painted.
To make a plumage for a rooster, you need to use a lot of plastic bottles. Moreover, each bottle should be cut into separate feathers.
To create tail feathers, bottles are used that have a capacity of 2.5 litas. They are cut into 5-7 pieces. Cut the bottle from the neck to the end. While working, focus on the relief ledges. It is important to say that very sharp scissors must be used in the work.
To simplify the work on the manufacture of plumage, you need to cut the bottle lengthwise. Remove the bottom and neck from the bottle. Then, on the lower half of the plastic rectangle, cut out triangles or semicircles. As a result, you will get a series of feathers that are very easy to screw to the body with self-tapping screws or plastic glue. The work is done from the bottom up. Cover the entire part of the rooster in this way.
For the wings, oval sheets are cut from a plastic bottle. Attach feathers to them.
Finally
Crafts from plastic bottles can be very different. But the best way crafts this is a rooster, which step-by-step instructions will help you make. You should study it carefully, prepare everything necessary materials and create an original product.
Find out how easy it is to craft a rooster from bottles, coffee beans, fabric. See how to make a salt dough rooster from egg trays.
Craft a rooster from egg trays
Here's what you can make a rooster. This is completely junk material, but wonderful crafts are made from it. For work you will need:
- egg trays;
- acrylic paints;
- thin white paper;
- cardboard;
- newspapers;
- scissors;
- glue gun;
- brushes;
- pencil.
Cut out bird wings from cardboard using a glue gun, glue them with blanks from egg trays that look like leaves.
Most of your time will be spent waiting for the body of the papier-mâché rooster to dry. Therefore, it is better to start work with its formation. Cut the newspapers into strips, dilute the glue with water in a 1: 2 ratio in a container. Dip the paper here, stick it on the inflated balloon. It will take more than one hour for this part to dry. When this happens, pierce the ball with a sharp object, take it out through the small hole left.
This rounded workpiece must be cut into two unequal parts, insert the smaller one into the larger one to increase the strength of the part. Glue these elements with a glue gun.
While the papier mache was drying, you had enough time to form the head and neck of the rooster. To the part that looks like a flower with elongated petals, made using petals from an egg tray, glue two triangular beak blanks, a comb cut out of cardboard.
Insert the second one into this flower blank, then the third, fourth and fifth. The head and neck of the bird are ready. Glue this piece to the side of the papier-mâché balloon half. To do this, we attach a strip of cardboard inside the neck with a glue gun so that it looks out from below. We glue this label to the papier-mache half of the body.
To make the tail, draw semicircular lines on the lid from under the eggs, cut them out.
Glue the tail to the back of the body. That's it, you can paint the cockerel with acrylics when it dries, hand the craft to the addressee or put it in the most prominent place in your house, as a bright attribute of the holiday.
You can make a rooster with your own hands not only on New Year but also at Easter. Then you put colored eggs in his semicircular body, decorate the festive table in this way.
Symbol of 2017 from plastic bottles
If you decide to celebrate the New Year in the country, then make a rooster - a symbol of 2017, which is not afraid of either snow or water. Plastic bottles are perfect for this.
To make a rooster with your own hands for the year of the Rooster, prepare all the necessary materials, in particular
- five-liter canister;
- plastic bottle of 5 liters;
- metal-plastic tube;
- 2 plastic bottles of 1.5 liters;
- corrugated pipe;
- thick copper wire;
- plastic bottles for feathers;
- perforated tape;
- acrylic putty;
- fine mesh;
- sandpaper;
- awl;
- construction foam;
- stationery knife;
- glue gun;
- self-tapping screws;
- scissors;
- screwdriver.
Bend the metal-plastic pipe to make two legs of a rooster out of it. Attach them to a five-liter canister with self-tapping screws. To make the animal's neck, cut a large canvas from a 5-liter bottle, fold it into an envelope, and secure with self-tapping screws. From one and a half liter bottles, cut off their upper parts below the shoulders, obliquely. Put them on the top of the bird's legs, also attach these parts with self-tapping screws or a glue gun.
To make bird feathers, cut off the neck of a bottle. Using scissors, cut out 5 longitudinal feathers.
Put corrugated tubes on the legs of the rooster, start decorating the thickened parts with feathers. To fix them, make two holes in each with an awl, insert a piece of wire here that needs to be tied to the base.
Cover the body of the bird with feathers, starting from where the tail grows. The back is not finished yet.
Fold the wire so that you get two paws, each with three fingers, put pieces of corrugated pipes on these blanks.
Cut long and narrow claws from the bottom of the bottle. Attach them to the glue gun or to the "Installation Moment".
Spray paint the resulting blank, using one color for the torso and another color for the legs.
Cut out the head of a cockerel from the construction foam using a clerical knife.
Take sandpaper, sand this part with it, then apply acrylic putty.
When this coating is dry, smoothen the surface again with sandpaper, then coat with PVA.
In order for the paint to lie well on the cockerel's head, a trick is used, having previously covered it with PVA. In this case, the paint adheres well, and its layer will be more durable.
From a fine mesh, cut out a part that will become the wings, back and tail of a rooster, glue long blanks from a plastic bottle to it to decorate this part with feathers. At the top, the wings are made from corrugated bottles.
Paint the wings, when the mortar dries, attach this part of the torso with perforated tape and self-tapping screws. Cut from bottles of 2.5 and 2 liters of elongated feathers, cutting each container into 5 parts. Paint them on both sides, after drying, attach with a wire to a metal mesh.
To make it easier to paint plastic bottles in a light color, take transparent ones, cut feathers from them for the back. Attach them with wire, 4 pieces at a time for self-tapping screws.
Attach the bird's head to its place with long self-tapping screws, cover the already painted parts with polyethylene, paint the rest. Make spurs for a rooster out of wire, after which you can put it in its intended place in the country house or at home.
It's even easier to make your next bird out of plastic bottles.
For this you will need:
- two plastic bottles with a volume of 2–2.5 liters with small necks, and one of the same volume, but with a large one;
- disposable plastic cups in two colors;
- disposable plates;
- wrapping paper or trash bag;
- plastic ball;
- eyes for dolls;
- Scotch;
- stationery knife;
- glue;
- scissors.
For plastic cups, cut the top into strips 8–10 mm wide. In length, they will occupy a third of the height of the glass. Put these blanks on the high neck of the bottle, alternating in color. Cut off the bottom of the last glass. Chop this container not only on one side, but also on the other side into thin strips. The middle will remain intact.
Just below the rim of the plates, cut semicircular feathers from plastic plates, cut them with scissors on one side to make thin feathers. In the bottle, which is located on the opposite side of the neck, make an incision, insert the tail feathers here, secure with tape.
Attach the ball to the top cup, secure it with tape. Cover the cut for the tail with wrapping paper or a piece cut out in the form of a fan from a colored garbage bag. Cut wings out of plastic plates, glue them to the sides of the bird with tape.
From plastic plates, cut out a comb, a beard, a cockerel's beak. Make three cuts in the foam ball, insert these blanks here, glue them for greater strength of the connection. Take ready-made eyes for toys, or make them yourself from a white foam plate, cut out the pupils from a black garbage bag. Glue on the eyes.

- 120 ml of water;
- 180 g fine salt;
- 370 g flour;
- 1.5 st. l. vegetable oil;

- Now you can roll it into a layer, put a template on top, cut a rooster from salt dough on it. With the same knife, apply veins of feathers on the tail, wings, and neck to the blank.
- If you want the bird to be voluminous, then separately mold the wings, buttons, and the upper part of the scallop.
- Leave this result of creativity for the dough to dry. To do this, place the product in a well-ventilated area to give the workpiece greater strength. Dry it for a day in this way, then heat the oven to 50 degrees.
- With two spatulas, transfer it to a baking sheet covered with paper, sprinkled with flour. Make a minimum fire, dry at this temperature for 2 hours. Remove the product, cool it.
