The best kite designs. Gorynych snake from plastic bottles and foam master class How to make a snake from a hose

garden figurines are important elements of garden decoration. But they are not cheap, the presented ideas for giving will help to make chickens, chicken, swan geese from waste material- packages, plastic bottles.

Animals made by yourself

Not everyone will guess that this motley mother hen and her fluffy chickens are made of plastic bags. It is very easy to make such crafts, then it will be told how to make a hare, a Christmas tree using this technique. Check out this section, then it will not be difficult for you to create a whole bird kingdom.

Before you make a hare, so white and fluffy, prepare everything you need, namely:

scissors;
cardboard;
plastic bags white color;
3 beads (2 eyes and nose);
glue.

First, you need to cut out 2 rings from cardboard, with which we will make pompoms. It is also necessary to cut the packages into long thin stripes. To do this, fold them with an accordion and cut into identical ribbons. Now put two cardboard rings together, wind the first tape around them, then the second, and so on. Do this until the cellophane strips completely cover the rings.

Now cut the polyethylene between the two cardboard rings along the outer edge. Put a rope between them and tighten tightly, tie. You can put the thread between the cardboard rings even before wrapping them with ribbons.

Remove the cardboard parts, straighten the resulting pompoms. Here's what you should get. This is the body of an animal.

Make another pompom of the same size or slightly smaller, it will become the head of a hare, which is very interesting to make with your own hands. Tie the threads of both pompoms to connect the head and torso of the animal in this way.

To make the ears, cut a strip of cellophane 3 cm wide, twist it in the middle twice. Then fold in half and straighten.

Rewind the part with a thread just below the middle, cut off the excess cellophane with scissors. Make the second ear in the same way, glue them and two beads in place of the eyes, and one as a nose.

Using smaller cardboard rings and strips from the bag, make 4 paws, glue them in place. The hare is ready. If you create it from packages purple, then the animal will turn out to be the same as in the photo.

Now you know how to make a bunny. In the same way, you can create a chicken with your own hands, as well as chickens and a rooster, and then place this bird kingdom on suburban area, Houses. It will be a great craft for kindergarten, which you can craft with your child.

Each chicken is crafted from plastic bags yellow color. The head is slightly smaller than the body. When the yellow pom-poms are made, they need to be tied and glued together, and then glued on the eyes of the chickens. To make a beak, cut out a small triangle from cardboard, stick a piece of red cellophane of the same shape and size on it. Place one large side of the triangle on exactly the same opposite side, smeared with glue. Use it to attach the beak to the head.

In the same way, a scallop is made for teenage chickens, for a chicken.

How to make a Christmas tree

To create a beautiful tree, you will also need plastic bags, but green. In addition to them, prepare for work:

compass;
ruler with circle patterns different size;
cardboard or paper;
glass beads or beads:
scissors;
threads;
strong thread;
ballpoint pen.

With the help of a compass, a ruler with round holes draw several circles of different diameters on cardboard or paper, put them on 2 plastic bags, outline and cut them out.

Find the center of each circle with a compass, put a dot here ballpoint pen. Here's how to make a Christmas tree with your own hands next.

To make the Christmas tree fluffy, use scissors to make notches in the form of a fringe at the ends of the cellophane blanks.

Arrange the circles cut out of the bag in size and begin to collect them on a dense thread. So that she, having pierced the cellophane, does not jump out, first we string a button on a needle and thread. Alternate circles of cellophane with beads or glass beads, stringing 1 bead after each cellophane blank.

We start collecting a tree from the largest circle, ending with a small one. Decorate the top of the Christmas tree made with your own hands with tinsel or an asterisk bent from wire.

A snake that is easy to make with your own hands

After reading the previous section, you will understand how to make a snake. For her, you also need to cut circles, but of the same size, so such a product will take less time.

Fold each bag several times and stack one on top of the other. Lay a round cardboard template on top, cut it out. Do the same for the other colors.

Blanks can be strung on a thread, but it is better on a wire. Then it will be easy for the snake to give a different position, for example, in the country, wrap a tree around such a craft and watch the reaction of the neighbors who came into the light.

The body of the snake is made from circles of the same diameter, and the face is made from circles gradually narrowing towards the tongue. Put a piece of cellophane on the end of the wire, which will become the sting of the reptile.

Garden figures for the garden - chicken and rooster

Such a colorful bird figurine can also decorate your household plot. But, first of all, you need to draw its outlines on a piece of paper. If you want a rooster or chicken to flaunt in the clearing, use the upper diagram. If you want a magpie, also made of plastic bags, lurking on a branch, then use the second drawing.

Now attach a wire to the outlines of the circuit, bend it along the contour of the drawing. The bird can be of any size - life-size, larger or smaller. Next, you need to wrap the resulting wire frame with plastic bags to give it volume, securing the structure with tape.

To make the chicken stable, you can make paws out of strong wire, screw them to the frame without creating bird fingers. Then you will pierce the ground with a wire, and the hen will stand steadily. The second option will be considered a little later. But in any case, the wire for the legs should be attached to the frame immediately, before you add volume to the bird.

If you are making chicken for the home, then you can use newspaper or fabric to wrap the frame. For a street figurine, take only cellophane, otherwise others natural materials when wet, they will rot.

Now cut strips from the packages:

for the body - 3 cm wide;
for the head - 2 cm.

Try to make them as long as possible. Lay the first strip near you horizontally, step back from the top 1 cm and string it on a long wire.

When you finish decorating the first strip of cellophane in this way, string the second, third, and so on on the same wire. We start assembling this figurine for the garden with our own hands, which is so interesting to make, from the tail. Weave 5 braids of different lengths. Attach them with a stapler to the base of the tail, while the longest pigtail should be on top, and the smaller one should be below.

Also fasten the edge of the first tape from the bag at the tail with a stapler and wrap the bird with a cellophane ruffle. When you get to the chicken breast, make a ruffle in the form of a frill. Decorate the whole bird in this way.

It's time to tell you how to make chicken paws in the second way. From thinner wire, twist 4 fingers, fixing them on the main thick wire for the legs. Fill in this place with hot glue.

From a piece of plastic, cut out the comb and beak of the bird, using a heat gun, glue these parts into place. After a while, paint them in the desired color. It remains to glue the eyes made of buttons and wrap the paws with packing tape. This is how beautiful birds do it.

Now you can arrange the figurines for the dacha that you made yourself: a chicken, a rooster, chickens, next to place Christmas trees that you also made with your own hands. Such crafts are durable, look great, and are made of waste material.

There are others interesting ideas for giving. If you want to spread around ornamental pond fabulous swan geese, plastic bags will also help. You can also use cuttings of greenhouse film.

Figurines for giving - geese-swans

That's what beauty you can get as a result.

You will need a few materials for this, namely:

aluminum wire;
2 five-liter plastic bottles;
substrate for linoleum isolon;
white or transparent bags or plastic film 150 microns thick;
scissors;
scotch.

Bend the plastic bottle as shown in the photo. You can do it differently by cutting off one of its large sides, laying it whole side up, giving it a curved shape.

Cut the isolon into strips, wrap the swan with them.

If you are making such figurines of birds for a summer residence, then the option with isolon will be ideal. If you are creating a swan for your home, then you can wrap its frame with burlap or a thick, light-colored fabric. From above, for strength, wrap the bird with tape.

Cut the bags or film into strips, and then fringe the long edge with scissors. Start wrapping them around the swan from the tail. To make the fastening strong, periodically heat the screwdriver over the burner and burn the film so that it is soldered to the base of the figure. Do not heat the screwdriver too much so that it does not burn through everything.

Finish the design of the figurine for giving by attaching cellophane feathers to the head. Glue the eyes, the beak, which needs to be painted scarlet. Bird wings are made from two sides of a 5-liter canister. If you cut out one when creating the bird's body, use it. The wings should be semicircular at the top, and taper towards the other side.

They also need to be wrapped with a film, attached to the base with a heated screwdriver or fork. Here's how to make a swan for a summer residence. You can create several of them and decorate the backyard.

Other do-it-yourself birds from bags for the garden

Such a bright beautiful peacock is also made from ordinary garbage bags, but first you need to create a frame. As you can see, it is created almost according to the same principle. Several long pieces of wire are pushed into the neck of an open bottle, they form a tail in the back, and in front, by interlacing, a neck and head. The film is stretched over two large feathers and one smaller one - the central one.

Then the frame is wrapped with a film cut into strips 8-10 cm long, which is decorated with a fringe.

In this technique, you can make other figures for the garden, for example, such storks that promise an addition to the family.

Openwork box

Such a wonderful thing is also made from garbage bags. Here is a list of the small things you will need to make it:

Trash bags;
sheathed thin wire;
scissors;
hook;
beads or beads;
tape measure.

Expand the packaging of the bags, cut off from the first edge. Using scissors, cut it into strips 5 cm wide. Unfold each ribbon.

They will help to crochet a square pattern. This box will be created in this form. The presented diagram shows that it begins with the execution of a single crochet.

When the first tape ends, attach the next one to it like this.

For greater strength of the product, and in order to subsequently bend the part as needed, we weave a soft wire.

Now we knit the bends on the box. Having tied up to the desired height, we cut the wire and use the single crochet to draw the edge.

Pull the end of the package through inner part side wall, tie a knot and cut.

Next, focusing on the scheme, we knit the top of the box.

Then we create the bent part of the cover. In conclusion, we make the edge of the lid of the box wavy.

Work is done. It remains to sew beads or beads to the lid, and the box, made with your own hands, is ready.

You can see how handicraft bags are cut by watching the video:

And here it is shown how to tie a basket of bags, which is also useful at home and in the country:

Let's imagine a situation. We wake up on the morning of the first of January. Children unpack gifts and joyfully jump in anticipation of entertainment. And parents have only one desire - to eat salads and fall asleep again. We approach the table... and see the bottles... Empty bottles... A lot of empty plastic bottles (of course, from mineral water))). (Probably Santa Claus brought it as a gift)))
Collect everything and throw it in the trash?
No!!! We will entertain the children (at the same time awaken ourselves).
Making the symbol of the year - the Snake!

1. Making the "body": Cut off the bottom of the bottles and remove the caps.

2. With a lighter (candle, matches), we slightly melt the edges of the cut so that it is safe for children.

3. We make 2 holes in one of the covers, thread the rope (it turned out to be an elastic band for me - for greater elasticity of the structure) and tie it in a knot with inside.

4. The other end of the rope (the length of the rope = the length of all the bottles laid out in one line + a little more) is threaded into a knitting needle. (Although you can do without it)

5. We collect the beads: We string all the bottles on a rope, starting with thinner ones (0.5 l - 1.0 l) ending with wider ones (1.5 l - 2.0 l). We pass the rope through the neck and bring it out into the cut off bottom. The very first bead is screwed to the lid (from point 3)

6. Making the "head": For this you need a 5-liter plastic bottle. We cut the bottom in it - the width of the hole is slightly larger than the width plastic bottles from the "body". We melt the edge.

7. We take 3 more bottles: Cut off the neck from 2 bottles and draw eyes on the white caps. At one more bottle we cut off the neck with a margin, cut out the crown. We melt the edges.

8. In the "head" we make holes for the "eyes" and the "crown"

9. We place the "eyes" in the cut out holes (on the inside of the head) and fix them with caps from the outside. On the contrary, we insert the crown from the outside and fix it with a lid inside. From something red (for example, plastic corner for papers), cut out the tongue and fasten it (with an elastic band, thread, wire) to the neck of the "head".

10. We connect the "head" with the "body". We pass the rope through the cut out bottom and bring it out through the neck. We make 2 holes in the lid of a 5l bottle, thread the rope, tighten it well so that the whole structure is assembled and pulled together. We tie the rope in a knot on the inside of the lid, which we then fasten to the neck of the canister.

11. The snake is ready! Cut out circles and rhombuses from self-adhesive paper of golden color. We give them to the children, and while they are decorating our beauty, we go to eat up the salads.

And then we go for a walk.)))

Not only for a child, but also for any adult, the beauty of a kite soaring above the ground is breathtaking. Elegant, bright, colorful, in the form of various animals, birds and objects - flying high, almost under the clouds, they are somewhat similar to ancient dragons. However, kite flying will become even more interesting and exciting process if you make it yourself. Do-it-yourself kite is wonderful creative occupation for the whole family.

A little about the features and varieties of products

Kites are not only a great educational toy. The history of this product dates back many millennia, since the first mention of it was found in the second century BC. China is considered the birthplace of the snake, however, then it was called the “dragon snake”. It was the kite in the form of a dragon - a winged fire-breathing and snake-like creature that was the most popular. Kites were then made from pieces of silk and bamboo sticks.
In addition to the decorative function, snakes were used for military and combat purposes as signals or means of observation, and in our time they began to serve to study natural phenomena, and to conduct meteorological studies, and for various scientific experiments. Today, there are play kites, among which there are children's toys, as well as large sports kites created specifically for some extreme sports. It's great if a child is interested in such design and wonders how to make a kite with his own hands. Being carried away by such an occupation, he will learn to fantasize and create, will develop his ingenuity and observation, will be able to independently understand the nature of some things, such as the strength and direction of the wind, the features of atmospheric phenomena, etc. Then it’s not enough to make - you still need to know how fly a kite.
First you need to figure out what products are and what they consist of.

The simplest and most basic design is single-plane. Such a kite will not fly very high and the storm will not withstand, but you can easily and quickly make it at home.

A multi-plane design will be a little more complicated. These snakes are highly stable, and they make them both box-shaped (the box-shaped one was invented by L. Hagrav), and stacked, and multi-celled (when a large number of individual cells are connected in the form of parallelepipeds or tetrahedra - tetrahedral construction).

And if you make a whole group kites and connect them into a single system, you get a group / composite structure or a “snake train”.

Any snake consists of indispensable basic elements:

frame - necessary to maintain the canvas in a taut position. The number and location of the rails that will form the kite determine its model and appearance;
the surface of the kite - it is she who will be pulled over the frame in order to create an obstacle to the air and produce aerodynamic or lifting force;
if you want to make a collapsible product, then you will need connecting parts - depending on what size you are making it, as well as what materials you use for this, there are many various solutions and variants of these details;
the attachment point is called a binding or a bridle - they can be different, for example, if it has one attachment point, then it will not need adjustment, because the tail will control the kite and set its angle of inclination. For a bridle with two attachment points and more, you will need to install a special adjusting ring and other parts that will allow you to properly control your kite;
if you want to make a keel, then it can replace your bridle with two attachment points, but then you can no longer change the angle of attack, because it will only be fixed (to fix this, several tails are attached to the snake);
by the way, the tail is not only for beauty, since its task is to stabilize the product in the air and eliminate all the shortcomings of the flight;
do not forget about the thread (it is called a handrail) that will hold your kite, preventing it from finally flying into the sky. Make sure that the thread is light, but strong, plus it matches the size of the product. The winding spool will save you from the annoying tangling of the thread, the long process of winding and unwinding it, so try not to forget to get this accessory as well.

There are also frameless snakes, that is, a frame is not taken for their manufacture, and it acquires the shape of snakes only thanks to the wind. The most popular model of this type is a paraglider.

Getting Started

So, having understood all the subtleties and nuances, you can proceed to practice. To begin with, let's try to see how a paper kite is made at home. Such a product cannot boast of strength or durability, but on it you can learn how to make kites.

For the manufacture, you can use colored cardboard, decorative paper, colored tissue paper. It is best to work with a drawing or diagram, choosing the model you like.

Since the drawings are different, the final appearance of the products will also be different. You can cut a diamond irregular shape(very elongated towards the bottom) or make snakes in the form of a polygon, etc.

On this base you will need to glue the rails. Since we work with paper, the slats should also be light - thin wooden or plastic (no more than two centimeters wide). Even bamboo skewers are used for a children's play kite. Can be attached with tape or glue.

Attach the snake's tail, and do not forget about the rope that will need to be fixed on the rail or coil.

The snake can be painted with felt-tip pens or paints, decorated with ribbons. Such a kite can fly only if you run with it.

By the way, in the origami technique there is a basic form called a kite, since a paper figure folded in this way is very reminiscent of a weightless flying handsome man. If you are thinking about how to make a paper kite, start by assembling origami. A similar flat kite can also be made from fabric or polyethylene, but with a more serious approach, so that ultimately it can actually fly:

locate the center of gravity of the body of the product on the axis of its symmetry (that longitudinal line that divides the body in half);
properly adjust the tail so that you can safely control the kite and carry out any maneuvers;
slings or fetters should be attached at strictly defined points and be carefully selected in length, since it is with their help that you can give the snake the most favorable angle of inclination of the body to the air currents, which means you will create the greatest lifting force;
if you do light kite, then know that it will rise to a great height, and with additional load (voluminous tails, decorations), on the contrary, it will not fly high.

1 You can choose not only any model or size of your future product, but also its appearance and design in general. For example, just imagine how majestic a kite in the form of a dragon or an eagle will look in the sky.

Don't forget the safety rules and precautions when flying a kite:

check how strong all connections are before starting;
in no case do not launch a kite in a thunderstorm;
also unsafe to run near electrical wires, near railway, airfield, runway or route;
be sure to use a lifeline spool or wear gloves, as strong wind or fast unwinding of the thread can seriously injure your hands (better not to grab the lifeline with your hands).

Well, you will learn to control the flight of your kite already in its very process. Having mastered the manufacture of simple and flat products, if you wish, you can eventually try to make such complex structure, like a box kite or multi-cell. Happy flight to your creations!

Flying a kite is not just for kids. For adults, a fun hobby allows for a short time to return to a carefree time again, to feel the joy of flying. You can buy a finished product, but it is much more interesting to make a snake on a string with your own hands. Using improvised materials and drawings, you can easily cope with this task.

Types of kites you can make yourself

In order to make a kite with your own hands, you need 5 things: elementary labor skills, materials, drawings, desire and patience. All structures are made according to the same principle: a base with aerodynamic properties of various shapes and a rope. The kite can be flat and voluminous, simple or consisting of several links.

Such a thing can be found in the store, but it will be a typical replicated version. It is better to make a controlled kite yourself, and then launch and enjoy the result.

The first who came up with the idea of launching a structure in the form of a kite or dragon into the sky were the Chinese. They took up this fascinating business in the 5th century BC.

Flat kite made of paper, nylon or polyethylene

Together with children, you can make a simple version of a domestic snake, which is called "Monk".

Take a leaf thick paper any color A4 format. Attach the lower right corner to the left long side so that it is aligned with the short one. It turns out a triangle with an upper single part. Cut it off, unfold the sheet, you get a square.
Mentally or with a pencil, draw a straight line between two opposite corners of the square - mark its axis.
Bend the sheet so that the right and left sides of the square "lie" on its axis.
Bend the corners up twice according to the accordion principle.
On both sides, glue a thread 30 cm long into the middle of the accordion. It turned out to be a “bridle”.
Strictly in the center of the bridle, tie a rope to launch and control the kite.

It is impossible to control a snake without a tail, so do not forget to make a rope of ribbons or threads intertwined and tied at the bottom with a tassel.

Make 20 pieces of ordinary thread or 5-6 of wool. Their length for a small snake should be at least 50 cm.
Fold the cut blanks together and tie with a brush towards the end or twist into a pigtail. You can decorate the tail with bows or paper triangles.
Make a hole in the bottom corner of the kite, thread the tail through and tie in a knot or glue it.
If you use ribbons or strips of fabric instead of thread, thread them through the hole, fold over, and sew the top to the bottom.

In addition to their decorative and entertainment functions, the first kites in China were used in construction. With their help, ropes were thrown over reservoirs and ravines for the subsequent construction of bridges.

Paper, fabric and wood construction

Compared to the "Monk" in the manufacture of this kite, there are some complications. In addition to paper, you will need thin wooden slats and fabric.

To make such a kite, prepare in advance:

2 notebook sheets;
3 slats (2 60 cm long, 1 - 40 cm);
strong kapron thread;
colored fabric.

Scheme of a triangular kite made of polyethylene

The triangular serpent is another variety flat design, more difficult to manufacture. But the result of work will surely please you. The kite turns out to be a classic triangular shape, bright and very beautiful.

From the materials you will need:

plastic bag, better bright and dense;
slats (straight sticks made of bamboo, willow, linden, pine or just window glazing beads);
rope or fishing line with a reel.

Dimensions finished product depend on the size of the package and the height of the launcher. Use percentage notation as shown in the diagram. Decide which figure is taken as 100%, and then use a calculator to calculate specific values.

For accurate marking, substitute your values and calculate the parameters of the kite in centimeters

Cut out the "body" of the kite from the bag according to the drawing.
Prepare 4 slats of appropriate sizes: two side rails of the same size, one long longitudinal and one short transverse.
Fix with any glue first the side rails on the sides, then the longitudinal in the middle, and at the end the central transverse.
Attach a keel in the middle of the kite with tape.
In the center of the bottom of the canvas, cut a hole into which you can thread the tail made from the scraps of the bags.
Tie one fishing line to each corner, fasten them together with a knot.
Attach a fishing line with a reel to the resulting “bridle” for launching and control.

Interesting fact. In ancient times, kites were used for military purposes: for reconnaissance, sending messages or gunpowder to enemy territory.

Drawing of a product in the form of a rhombus

This design is made according to the same principle as the triangular kite. You will need 2 slats (60 and 30 cm), a plastic bag, fishing line and tape.

Fold the slats in a cross so that the short one crosses the long one at a height of one quarter of the total length.
Tie them with tape or string.
Put the resulting cross on a plastic bag.
We measure right size and the shape of the future kite
Cut out the canvas in the shape of a diamond, leaving a small margin.
Pull it over the rack cross, tuck the stock and glue or hem.
We fit the cross of the kite with a bag and cut it off
Tie a fishing line to the intersection of the sticks and to the lower corner of the rhombus. Just in case, make a few turns and fix well.
We tie the fishing line to the intersection of the sticks
Tie the fishing lines together with a knot to which you attach the fishing line with the reel. It turns out a bridle.
Attach the tail, also cut out of cellophane, to the end of the axial stick with adhesive tape.

In order for a kite to fly well, its tail must be 10 times longer than its base.

Interesting fact. In the XIII - XIV centuries, air structures were used to study natural phenomena and observe the weather.

To make a kite, you can also use the scheme.

How to make a bird design

To get a kite that resembles a bird in flight, use one trick: fasten the bowstring between the side parts. Under the pressure of the wind, it will then stretch, then weaken, making the structure "winged".

Necessary materials:

8 sticks with a diameter of less than 1 cm and a length of 30.5 cm, 3 sticks of 91.5 cm and 3 of 150 cm from linden or pine;
nylon or polyethylene film;
fishing line;
coil.

Place 150 cm long rods in front of you parallel to each other.
Across, place a 91.5 cm stick at a distance of 59.75 cm from the edge.
Tie it with threads so that between the first and second there is a distance of 30.5 cm, and between the second and third - 61 cm.
Stepping back 30.5 cm to the larger side, attach a second stick 91.5 cm long.
Tie 4 short slats at a distance of 30.5 cm from each other at an angle so that they converge at the bottom into a triangle (see diagram).
Close the closed ends of the short planks with the last rail 91.5 cm long. We got a “day nursery” tied in the center of the structure.
Tie everything with threads smeared with glue.
Fasten the ends of long sticks pre-moistened with water. You need to wet them so that they do not break when bent.
Between the ends of the "wings" stretch the fishing line.
To make the “body” of the snake, cut a pentagon out of fabric (upper and lower sides 30.5 cm each, height 91.5 cm + 2 cm per collar). In the center, make a square with a side length of 30.5 cm.
From the bottom corners of the square, measure 59.75 cm left and right.
To the obtained points, stretch the segments from the ends of the upper and lower sides of the pentagon. It turned out a canvas with a window in the middle.
Sheathe and glue the wooden frame of the kite.
In addition, cut 4 inserts for the "crèche". Each size 30.5 x 30.5 cm. Insert them into the "windows", glue.
Make a tail out of the rope and the remnants of the fabric, attach the "manger" on one side.
On the other hand, make a bridle from two interconnected lines and tightly tie a thread with a spool (rail) to them.

In order for the structure not to collapse on one side and not disintegrate in the air, adhere to the dimensions exactly and tightly tie the parts together.

It is problematic to launch such a kite alone, so call your comrades and get a surge of joy from launching the "bird" into the sky.

Volumetric (box) kites

To create a voluminous kite, you will need:

wooden slats (window glazing beads can be used) - 4 pcs. 1 m long and 6 by 60 cm;
large garbage bags;
durable nylon tourniquet on a reel from a hardware store;
scotch;
ruler;
square;
scissors;
glue.

Volumetric kite flies high and beautifully, and you can make it yourself

Successful launch secrets

You can fly a kite alone, but this requires a certain skill. It is more convenient and more fun to do it together. One holds a snake, the other a spool of fishing line or thread (handle). The main condition for a successful launch is the presence of wind from 3–4 m/s, as well as open space without trees and wires.

The person who holds the handrail becomes so that the wind blows in his back, unwinds 10-20 meters of the rope and pulls it.
The second moves to the length of the rope, runs up and launches the kite. He must seize the moment and pull the rope.
If the wind is not strong enough and the kite starts to lose altitude or cannot rise at all, the lifeguard will also have to run.

If you want to have a great time, be creative with the whole family - make a kite. It is quite easy to make it yourself. The spirit of unity, joy and fun will be a reward for the time and effort spent.

Very interesting and beautiful can be done garden crafts from plastic bottles and polyurethane foam. The site has already collected not a small collection various crafts for the garden made by hand from improvised materials (plastic bottles, twigs, old tires, etc.) Each craft on our site is author's and unique. You can find the most simple ideas as well as more complex ones.
Also, have you met interesting crafts for the garden of Nadezhda Gulak, and today you will get acquainted with another work of this wonderful master - this is the Serpent Gorynych made of plastic bottles and polyurethane foam. Look how funny Gorynych turned out, you just want to quickly create exactly the same for yourself. Do not be afraid to create, only at first glance it may seem difficult. Even if you don’t succeed as you planned, I know for sure that your crafts will be unique in their own way.

To make the Serpent Gorynych, we need:
* Plastic bottles.
* Mounting foam.
* Wooden sticks.
* Newspaper.
* Tile adhesive.
* PVA glue.
* Primer.
* Stone.
* Scotch.
* Cardboard.
* Wire.
* Bandage.
* Nylon tights.
* KAMAZ filter.

How to make the Serpent Gorynych:
To make the Serpent Gorynych, we need a KAMAZ filter, we insert three sticks of the length we need into it, stick a plastic bottle there and foam it. You can make a frame from other improvised materials, here as far as your imagination is enough.

Now we take plastic bottles of 2.5 liters, cut them in half, make them shorter and put them together again (this is done so that the muzzles are smaller, not very elongated). Then we fix them on the frame, these will be the faces for our Serpent Gorynych.

We take a stone and put it on the filter, this is done for the stability of our Gorynych. If there is a strong wind, then our craft will not fall and fly away. If there is no stone, find something heavy and replace it.

We draw the location of the eyes, nostrils, etc. on plastic bottles.

To reduce the consumption of mounting foam, we will add volume with the help of newspapers. We wrap Gorynych's body with newspapers and with the help of adhesive tape you can fix them.

Now we will make ears from a plastic bottle. We cut small squares from a plastic bottle, round them and make ears. Using adhesive tape, we fix the eye so that it does not turn around. See the dimensions of the blanks for yourself, because each craft will turn out to be different in size, someone has a large one, and someone has a small one.

We fix the finished ears on the crown))) We make small holes in the bottle and insert the finished ears there.

We also cut blanks from thick cardboard for the manufacture of the tail and wings. We also fix them in the right place.

For stability, we stick the wire, this will be the tail.

We take nylon tights, stuff them with scraps from polyurethane foam (waste left over from crafts) and make a stomach, legs and arms.

Trim off excess foam.

We take the wire and make fingers on our hands.

Then we wrap them with a bandage and foam them.

Wrap the entire craft with a bandage and then process it with pva glue + tile glue.

Here is such a Serpent Gorynych from bottles and polyurethane foam turned out.

Now we cover with a primer of our Gorynych in three layers. Each layer should dry a little.

Serpent Gorynych is almost ready, we paint it with ordinary enamel, you can also use spray paint. All Serpent Gorynych from plastic bottles and polyurethane foam is ready.

You can give him something in his hands, such as a flower. Here, too, as your imagination tells you, or you can leave it unchanged, and so it turned out to be very beautiful.
