Ballet is so mysterious, alluring and extraordinary. The ballerina is a fabulous creature that makes the heart flutter. Thin lines, delicate silhouette fascinate. And hands are stretching to create this beauty! And then you wonder how to make a ballerina out of paper?

There can be many reasons for creating a ballerina. An adorable hand-made paper ballerina will decorate your house for the new year, they can decorate rooms for a daughter's birthday, a ballerina can be presented to a friend, colleague. And if you have a familiar ballerina, then you can't imagine a better gift!

Dancing ballerinas

This master class will tell you how to create a whole \\ '\\' ballet \\ '\\'! Hang ballerinas on the chandelier and enjoy a gentle dance with every breath of the breeze. Let's get started!

Materials:

paper (for printer, whatman paper, white cardboard)
scissors
tulle
tape or paper clips
fishing line or thread

First you need to enlarge and print your favorite paper ballerina templates.

It is better to cut the ballerinas themselves from thicker paper than printed paper. Whatman paper or white cardboard is great.

We attach the printed ballerina's template to thick paper using tape or glue and carefully cut our ballerina along the contour.

Thus, we cut out another 3-4 ballerinas. Then our ballerinas need to be dressed! To do this, we simply cut out snowflakes from paper, as in childhood, and dress ballerinas like skirts. The result is charming ballerinas who will decorate the house for the new year! And if the reason for the holiday is different, then they can be dressed in tulle skirts. To do this, you need to sew simple skirts of different colors and dress ballerinas in them. Hang your ballerinas with a fishing line or thread from the chandelier and admire the gentle dance!

Ballerinas in the form of snowflakes

In the next master class, we will explain in more detail how to make a paper ballerina in a snowflake pack.

Materials:

scissors
thick white paper - for the figure of a ballerina
thinner paper - for snowflakes

You can draw a figure yourself or just print a ready-made ballerina stencil from paper. Cut out on thicker paper.

Then we make snowflakes. To do this, take a sheet of A4 paper and cut out an equilateral square from it.

Folds it into a triangle and bend \\ '\\' wings \\ '\\' towards each other

Using scissors, we cut out various fragments of different shapes and sizes. The thinner the \\ "feathers \\" of the snowflake - the softer it will turn out. We dress the ballerinas with snowflakes and rejoice!

Garlands with snow ballerinas

You can even make garlands from our ballerinas. Everything here is completely simple and easy. They can be hung on a Christmas tree or to decorate a room.

Materials:

paper
scissors
christmas tree garland

We print out the ballerina's template from paper and cut it out with scissors. For your convenience, we specially offer half of the figure. Fold the piece of paper in half and circle the template around the fold of the paper. Cut out along the contour, open it and get a whole figure.

Then we cut out snowflake skirts for ballerinas and dress them. A diagram of how to properly fold paper for snowflakes is shown above. Then ready-made ballerinas need to be strung on a Christmas tree garland and here it is a miracle! You've got a whole dance!

Video: Beautiful ballerina performance

We have already talked so much about tutus, ballet and ballerinas, let's move a little from the topic of creating a ballerina out of paper and just watch a beautiful performance.

Before the New Year, I want to decorate the house and make it somehow unusual. The best option for an original piece of jewelry may be to use homemade accessories. For example, if you make snowflakes with your own hands, hang them around 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 a pendant.

Snowflakes can be single or collected from several different ones. A ballerina in a snowflake skirt, which gracefully dances 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, such garlands can be hung over a work table with a small length 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 folds down diagonally and the excess paper is trimmed to make a regular 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 any pattern that you have enough imagination for.

Such a snowflake can become a beautiful and unusual skirt for a ballerina. After making several different snowflakes, you can dress each ballerina in her own individual outfit.

Ballerinas can also be different, for example, a balancing girl on one leg.

Or a gracefully curved dancer with her hands up. Such a figure is convenient to use, since you can stretch a thread between her hands and hang it in the right place.

Another option for a ballerina to diversify the garland with different girls.

Each shape can be neatly transferred to a sheet of paper or printed out from existing templates. The sizes of ballerinas can be of any size, but it is most convenient to place them on an A5 sheet, then two girls will fit on the album page.

You can cut identical ballerinas of 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 a regular 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, curtains or on a Christmas tree, the room will sparkle with new colors, and New Year's magic will be felt 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 the snowflakes themselves by folding the sheet in 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 funny and beautiful patterns out of paper.

To put on an openwork skirt on a ballerina, it must be kept folded in half, then it will crawl through even the smallest hole in the center of the snowflake. And then you can beautifully straighten both the ballerina and the snowflake.

A paper ballerina in a pack of laced snowflakes is a classic Christmas decoration. These graceful dolls can be used to decorate windows, hang them on a Christmas tree or glue them into a long airy garland.

Master class number 1

To make such a decoration, first, print out a template for a ballerina figurine. There are three options here: Pattern 1, Pattern 2, and Pattern 3.

Make a pack according to this scheme:

Cut out one of the figures to serve as your base. Then fold a sheet of paper as shown in the picture, transfer the snowflake template to it and cut out the future pack. All snowflakes have a hole in the middle. You just have to insert a paper ballerina into it, and your doll is ready!

Step by step lesson number 2

If you want to spice up the decoration a little, try using a suitable photograph or a drawing of a real ballerina for the base:

Print two mirror copies of the same picture (you can rotate it 180 degrees around the vertical axis using almost any graphic editor). Cut and glue them together so that the finished figurine is double-sided. We used the following vintage image (clicking on the image will open a full size photo, which you can use in your work):

While the base dries, cut two identical rectangles out of thick paper. Fold them like an accordion, then bend the resulting workpiece in half:

Glue the edges of the paper together from the inside of the folded accordion. When opened, the resulting "fans" should completely cover the hem of the painted ballerina. Now you need to glue the blanks to the figure. Unscrew the outer edges of the accordion slightly and shape the pack into a curved shape. Apply some glue to the edges and press them against the edges of the base. Glue the second "fan" on the other side of the figure.

To give the pack even more volume, you can attach another thin tissue paper over the first skirt:

To make a pendant, poke a small hole in the top of the figure and thread a gold or silver thread through it.

Ballerina from napkins

And finally, the most unusual lesson! If you have a piece of thin wire and a napkin on hand, you can make a model like this:

First, twist the wire into a basic silhouette of a man with arms raised.

Set aside several untouched layers of paper and tear the rest into strips about 3 cm wide. It is very important to do this by hand, not with scissors. Take the wire skeleton and start wrapping strips of paper around it. As the paper coats the figurine, apply colorless, water-diluted stationery glue over it.

After wrapping a few extra layers of paper in the upper part of the torso, make a slight thickening so that the figure of the toy ballerina looks more like a human. After the figures are completely dry, you can start dressing.

Fold one of the set aside squares as if you are going to cut a snowflake out of it (see the previous instructions), measure the desired length of the dress and cut off the excess paper from the wide side. It is better if you make the cut line slightly wavy.

Grasping the paper at the intersection of all the folds, fold and unfold the workpiece several times clockwise, and then do the same in the opposite direction:

Double-layer skirts look softer, so don't be too lazy to repeat this process with another layer of paper napkin.

Carefully make small holes in the paper for the ballerina's head and arms, and then put the dress on. Pull it together at the waist using white thread.

And this is what happened:

If you still have any questions, then watch this video for more clarity, I for new ideas:

Today I want to offer you another very beautiful New Year's decoration at home, a Christmas tree. Let's make unusual snowflakes, the so-called ballerina snowflakes. What is it, you ask, and now I will pop a row and tell you everything.

The pace of modern life often leaves us neither time nor desire for making our own holiday decorations. We see no point in fiddling with scissors and paper, because now you can buy anything in the store. However, there is a huge number of simple decorations, with which you can beautifully and originally decorate your home, while spending the minimum amount of money. For example, snowflakes ballerina patterns for which can be found in this article. Making them will give you a great opportunity to relieve stress and escape from everyday worries, give free rein to your imagination, get emotionally close to your family, remember your childhood and plunge into the magical atmosphere of the New Year.

Today we will tell you how to make a simple but very effective decoration - ballerina's snowflakes. Who among us did not cut ordinary paper snowflakes in childhood, admiring their unique pattern? And now we will try to bring something new into this process and revitalize our creations, making them beautiful girls, as if performing the famous Waltz of Snowflakes from the Nutcracker ballet. One more thing, do not forget to congratulate your family and friends in an original way. our best happy New Year 2019 greetings: funny, short, cool .

Ballerinas templates

First, we need to draw and cut out figures of ballerinas. Their size can be any, but it is most convenient to take A4 paper, and for home decoration this size is the most optimal. You can use ready-made templates, or you can draw a stencil of snowflakes for a ballerina yourself, giving the girls various graceful poses - this is not difficult and very interesting.

Try to portray a girl standing on one leg, or flying in a graceful jump. Figures with outstretched arms are very expressive. And if you give the dancer one of the five main ballet positions, she will fit into the ensemble especially organically.

In addition, it is convenient to use the arms raised positions, as you can hook the strings to them to hang the ballerinas. The more different silhouettes you come up with, the more interesting and dynamic the final result will look.

Be sure to draw ballet tutus, but not too long and voluminous - their function is only to support the main skirts of our dancing beauties. You can use any colors: classic white ballerinas look gentle and festive, but black silhouettes also look very impressive due to the contrast.

And if you take colored paper, the dancers will turn out to be colorful and positive, like a flock of multi-colored butterflies. By the way, if you wish, you can make any other silhouettes instead of ballerinas - for example, figure skaters or gymnasts.

Cut out the snowflakes

Now we can do the snowy clothes of our beauties, which just give the New Year's mood to the whole product. It is better to use thinner paper for making them than for girlish silhouettes (for example, cigarette paper) - this will make the skirts light and flying. The color can also be any. Multicolored skirts dressed on white figures will look original and elegant. By the way, you can see how to decorate windows for New Year 2019 with your own hands: templates and stencils for windows for the New Year 2019 for cutting out A4 format I specially prepared for you, my beloved readers.

We need:

cardboard or thick paper,
thin paper,
pencil and eraser,
scissors,
thread or fishing line.

1) First, we need to make a square out of a sheet of paper. To do this, bend the corner so that the short side of the rectangle coincides with the long one.

2) Cut off the extra strip of paper.

3) We fold the resulting triangle in half in height, connecting its sharp corners for this, then we do the same thing again.

4) We will get a workpiece of six folds - this is the most optimal option for further work; but a square of a large area or of thin paper can be folded several more times. The more folds there are, the more lacy the finished product will turn out, but you should not get carried away either, because cutting out neat patterns on a too thick workpiece is not at all easy.

5) Let's start creating an ornament. For this, small, sharpened scissors like manicure scissors are well suited, with which it is most convenient to cut out small parts. We cut off the oblique edge along the base of the triangular blank, thereby giving the shape of our future snowy fluff.

6) Cut out various lines, triangles, circles along the long sides. To do this, you can use a variety of ready-made templates, but it is much more fun to come up with different options yourself, creating your own unique pattern. The cutouts can be of different widths and depths, straight or curved, parallel or perpendicular to each other, randomly or in strict order. They can be alternated with various geometric shapes, or even the contours of easily recognizable objects - leaves, flowers, Christmas trees, butterflies. Don't be afraid to experiment!

7) Now we have to put lace tutus on our ballerinas. To do this, in the center of the snowflakes, we make small slots into which we thread paper girls. The latter can first be carefully folded in height so that they can more easily pass into the holes, and then beautifully straightened out together with the skirts. Another option is to cut the snowflake skirt on one side and wrap it around the dancer's waist, then align the edges of the cut and gently glue them with a small piece of transparent tape.

8) Done!Let's not forget that in addition to snowflakes, you can cut, for example, New Year's deer - deer stencils for New Year for cutting are already waiting for you.

You can also dress our snow fashionistas in multi-layered skirts, for which you should put on a few ready-made snowflakes on the girl's body. They can be made of different diameters and different colors, and then their paper mistress will definitely not go unnoticed. You can also decorate both skirts and the silhouettes of girls with various decorative elements - rhinestones, beads, sequins, pieces of foil or tinsel.

And if you fall in love with adorable dancers so much that you do not want to take them off after the New Year, you can replace their snow packs with skirts made of light airy fabric (for example, organza or tulle), and charming ballerinas will look appropriate on the New Year tree, and indeed in your home even in summer.

Room decoration

The most pleasant part remains - we will decorate the room with ballerinas. To do this, we need a thin and strong thread (for example, nylon) in a neutral color, which will not be conspicuous and will help create the illusion that our creations are floating freely in the air. A thin fishing line or even dental floss is also suitable for this purpose. Carefully pierce the head or the raised hand of the figure with a thin needle with a threaded thread and tie a small knot at the end.

To prevent the puncture site from tearing, we recommend that you first stick a small piece of tape on it. If the girl's hand is raised up, you can simply tie it with a thread around the wrist. And now we hang the finished craft where everyone can see it. Flying snow fairies will look very impressive in the window opening, against the background of a winter landscape outside - you will be provided with a New Year mood!

To give the picture completeness and a fabulous atmosphere, you can additionally cut clouds out of paper and attach them at the top of the window (which will also serve as a disguise for the attachment points of the threads to the window), and at the bottom, glue a row of one-story houses or fancy trees. Imagine, create your own extraordinary landscapes - and you will see how exciting it is!

The little girls in the upper half of the doorway will look no less impressive if they are hung there like muslin; and, attached to the ceiling, they will create a completely extraordinary magical atmosphere in the room. Graceful beauties in openwork robes, trembling from the slightest breath of air, will fill everything around with mystery and anticipation of a miracle that happens only in childhood.

To hang the miracles over the table or over the bed, take shorter threads, and seeing their graceful dance in the morning, you will keep the festive New Year mood for the whole day. Or attach fairy ballerinas to the chandelier and they can dance delightfully in the stream of light. And the ballet dancers sewn to the curtains will not be visible during the day, but in the evening they will fill the room with magic when you just draw the curtains.

Garlands of snowflake ballerinas

A very unusual decoration will turn out if you hang two or even three or more ballerinas in different poses on each thread at different heights (provided that the height of the threads allows you to do this). In the hand or head of each figure, it is necessary to make a small hole with a needle into which the thread is threaded. To keep each figure at the required height and not slide down, a small knot should be tied in this place. In addition to our beauties, the room can also be decorated dIY paper garlands for New Year .

You can also make horizontal garlands from snowflakes of ballerinas to decorate a Christmas tree or room walls. In this case, it is better to use symmetrical figures with arms raised up, through which you can thread a thread or tinsel. To make all the elements of the garland exactly the same, it is better to use ready-made patterns of snowflakes for ballerinas, which are halves of bodies (for such a garland, schematic drawings are suitable, because these dancers will not spin in the air). Fold a sheet of paper in half, apply a template to the fold and carefully outline it, and then cut it out.

So, today we are convinced that decorating a house for the holiday with our own hands is not at all difficult and very exciting. You can make your own unique and exquisite decor elements that will amaze your guests and make the holidays bright and memorable. You just need to start - and perhaps soon a wonderful good tradition will appear in your house - to create a magical New Year's atmosphere in your apartment with your own hands. So if you have a ballerina template to cut out, you can print it out and make snowflakes. You can print for free if you have a printer.
