  • scissors and a stationery knife;
  • paints, brushes;
  • textile;
  • Knitting;
  • felt;
  • glue gun.

For example, you can make adorable penguins. To do this, you need to cut the workpiece in half, and cut off the bottom for the cap. Next, they need to be painted like penguins, glue the parts with a glue gun and decorate the figures with textiles.

A little tip - instead of a glue gun, you can use scotch tape, which you just paint over later.

Use acrylic paints, they adhere better to plastic.

From this simple and affordable material, you can also make bright and beautiful apples, which can be placed under the tree or to decorate the kitchen with them. By the way, the decor is suitable not only for the New Year, but also for other holidays.

For a child, you can make a toy - a horse on a stick. If you improvise, you can also create a dog, because this is a symbol of the upcoming 2018. And the color, by the way, is yellow! So use a lot of yellow when creating your wonderful crafts.

Christmas tree decorations from plastic bottles

If the house has collected a lot of the material we need, and you already don't know where to put it, then our advice to you is for creativity! Let this container be creative! You can make wonderful snowflakes from the bases. They only need to be slightly colored and attached with a string so that they can be hung. Use a thin brush to paint the pattern.

  • smooth plastic bottles;
  • acrylic paints, brushes;
  • sequins;
  • decorative figurines;
  • glue;
  • foam or artificial snow;
  • sequins, beads.

To begin with, you need to cut off the top and bottom of the bottle so that one tube remains. A circle needs to be cut out of polystyrene along the diameter of the pipe; we will attach our decorative parts to it.

Then, having coated the sides of the foam with glue, it must be glued to the main part of the composition, placing it inside the decoration.

The top and bottom of the pipe can be decorated with cut-off parts of the bottle, glued with a glue gun and decorated with artificial snow and ribbons. Crafts from plastic bottles are ready! You can also sprinkle sequins, sequins and beads inside.

Alternatively, you can use only the top and bottom to create a kind of New Year's snow globe.

Find out how easy it is to craft a rooster from bottles, coffee beans, fabric. See how to make a rooster out of salted dough from egg trays.

Craft a rooster from egg trays


This is what a rooster can be made of. This is completely junk material, but it makes great crafts. For work you will need:
  • egg trays;
  • acrylic paints;
  • thin white paper;
  • cardboard;
  • newspapers;
  • scissors;
  • glue gun;
  • brushes;
  • pencil.
From the protruding parts of the tray, cut blanks that are similar in shape to elongated petals. When you make a rooster's head, you need to glue them together with thin white paper to create a semblance of a flower. Cut the beard of the bird from the side of the box. The rounded triangle will become its beak, this blank needs to be glued on the side. For the beak, you will need 2 such parts.

Using a glue gun, cut out the bird's wings from cardboard, glue them with blanks from egg trays that look like leaves.


Most of your time will be spent waiting for the papier-mâché rooster's body to dry. Therefore, it is better to start working with its formation. Cut the newspapers into strips, dilute the glue with water in a 1: 2 ratio in a container. Dip the paper in here, stick it on the inflated balloon. It will take more than one hour to dry this part. When this happens, pierce the ball with a sharp object and remove it 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 together with a glue gun.

While the papier-mâché was drying, you had enough time to form the head and neck of the rooster. To a detail that looks like a flower with elongated petals, made using petals from egg tray, glue two triangular beak blanks, 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 half papier-mâché ball. To do this, use a glue gun to attach a strip of cardboard inside the neck so that it looks out from below. We glue this label to the half of the papier-mâché body.


To make a tail, draw semicircular lines on the lid from under the eggs, cut along them.


Glue the tail to the back of the body. Everything, you can paint the cockerel with acrylic paints, when it dries up, 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 for the New Year, but also for Easter. Then you put painted eggs in his semicircular body, thus decorate the festive table.

Symbol of 2017 made from plastic bottles

If you decide to celebrate the New Year at the dacha, 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 everything necessary materials, in particular
  • a five-liter canister;
  • a plastic bottle with a volume of 5 liters;
  • metal-plastic tube;
  • 2 plastic bottles with a volume 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.
Right now, you will learn how to make a cock from bottles, step by step instructions will help with this. Make just such a structure using self-tapping screws, scissors.


Bend the reinforced plastic pipe to make two rooster legs out of it. Attach them to the five-liter canister using self-tapping screws. To make an animal's neck, cut off a large piece of cloth from a 5-liter bottle, roll it up in the form of an envelope, and secure with self-tapping screws. From 1.5 liter bottles, cut off their tops below the shoulders, obliquely. Put them on the top of the bird's legs, and also attach these parts with self-tapping screws or a glue gun.

To make bird feathers, cut off the neck of the bottle. Using scissors, cut out 5 longitudinal feathers.


Put corrugated tubes on the rooster's legs, begin to decorate 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 the point where the tail grows. We are not making the backrest yet.


Roll the wire so that you get two paws, each with three fingers, put on these blanks pieces of corrugated pipes.


Cut out long and narrow nails from the bottom of the bottle. Attach them to the glue gun or to the "Moment of Installation".


Cover the resulting blank with spray paint, using one color for the torso and a different color for the legs.


Cut the head of the cock out of the building foam using a utility knife.


Take sandpaper, sand this part with it, then apply acrylic putty.


When this coating is dry, smooth the surface again with sandpaper, then coat with PVA.

To paint well on the head of the cockerel, use a trick, having previously covered it with PVA. In this case, the paint adheres well, and its layer will be more durable.



From a fine-mesh mesh, cut out a part that will become the wings of the 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 solution is dry, attach this torso piece with perforated tape and self-tapping screws. Cut from 2.5 and 2 liter bottles of elongated feathers, cutting each container into 5 pieces. Paint them on both sides, after drying, attach with 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 once for self-tapping screws.


Attach the bird's head to its place using long self-tapping screws, cover the already painted parts with plastic, paint the rest. Make spurs for the rooster out of the wire, after which you can put it in its intended place in the country or at home.


It's even easier to make the next bird out of plastic bottles.


To do 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.
Cut the first plastic bottle with a short neck below the shoulders, and process the second and third as well. Attach the other two to the first, so that on one side you get a blank for the tail, and on the other for the body and throat, connect the parts with tape.


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 the bottom of the last glass. Shred this container not only from one side, but also from the other side into thin strips. At the same time, the middle will remain solid.

Just below the rim of the plates, cut the semicircular feathers out of the plastic plates and cut them on one side with scissors to create 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 tail cut with wrapping paper or a fan-cut piece from a colored trash bag. Cut the wings out of plastic plates, glue them to the sides of the bird with tape.


Cut the comb, beard, beak of the cock out of plastic plates. Make in foam ball three cuts, 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 the eyes.


If you want to learn how to make a rooster out of bottles even faster, then watch the third master class in this section.

  1. Cut the bottom of a large plastic bottle, put it on a fence peg or a stick specially dug into the ground for this occasion.
  2. If the bird will stand in the house, then glue its lower part with strips of colored paper, make the wings and comb out of cardboard of the appropriate shades. If the rooster is on the street, then these parts must be waterproof.
  3. Create stripes from colorful garbage bags(by tying or gluing those), wings, nose, comb, beard made of colored plastic.
  4. Take two white bottle caps, paint black here acrylic paint pupils, glue them to the head.
  5. The tail is made from bottles of different sizes and colors. Cut off their bottoms, chop them almost to the shoulders into thin strips with scissors. Insert one bottle into another, fix them with wire, tape or glue.

Salted dough rooster

Such a three-dimensional picture looks great, but it is performed in an unusual way.


To make such a panel, take:
  • 120 ml of water;
  • 180 g fine salt;
  • 370 g flour;
  • 1.5 tbsp. l. vegetable oil;
  • acrylic paints;
  • rooster pattern.

  1. You will make a cardboard image of this bird when you transfer the presented drawing to paper.
  2. Mix flour and salt, pour vegetable oil and water here. Knead the dough well, cover it cloth napkin to stand for 20 minutes.
  3. Now you can roll it into a layer, put a template on top, cut a rooster out of salted dough along it. Using the same knife, apply streaks of feathers on the tail, wings, neck to the workpiece.
  4. If you want the bird to be voluminous, then separately sculpt the wings, buttons, the upper part of the comb.
  5. Leave this creative result to dry the dough. To do this, you need to 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.
  6. Using two cooking spatulas, transfer it to a baking sheet lined with paper and sprinkled with flour. Reduce heat to low, dry at this temperature for 2 hours. Take out the product, cool it down.
  7. Now we need to paint our fiery rooster with acrylics of different colors, and then varnish.

If you have a colorless nail polish, it works great for coloring a rooster with salt dough.


You can also sculpt a voluminous rooster from salted dough. Then the figurine needs to dry well for two days.

Crafts roosters from coffee beans do it yourself


This is not a simple rooster, but a magnet. To do it, you need to stock up on:
  • a piece of burlap;
  • a piece of red felt;
  • coffee beans;
  • a sheet of cardboard;
  • rhinestones and sequins;
  • crochet;
  • threads;
  • glue gun.
Draw on cardboard the image of the future hero, which was a more realistic craft rooster symbol of 2017. With your own hands you will need to cut out the outlines of this character. It is also necessary to cut a semicircular wing from burlap and a comb with a felt beard.

Use a brown pencil to paint the cardboard body of the cockerel. At the bottom, using a needle, into which the thread is set to match, form two legs of the cock out of it, make the paws out of brown colored cardboard, like the blank of the tail, which needs to be glued into place.

Make a beautiful thread bushy tail, glue it onto the cardboard blank. Also glue coffee beans on the body, bypassing the wing, and attach them to the ends of the legs. WITH back side torso glue the magnet. Decorate the wing with sequins and rhinestones.
