Progress:
1. The plot of the New Year's coloring book inspired the creation of a festive composition.

2. We drew a snowman and cut it into pieces.

3. Cooking the biggest com. To do this, we spread the workpiece with PVA glue and move in a circular motion in a circle, starting from the center (middle).

4. In the same way we make the second and third room.

5. We connect them together, sewing to each other.

6. To make a hat, cut off pieces of colored thread and glue them one by one and move down.

7. To hide the ends of the glued threads, use a hook to tie a pigtail and glue it to the edge of the cap.

8. Decorate the hat with a bubo. To do this, cut the threads of different colors, fold them in half and tie in the middle.

9. Having cut off the excess length of the threads, we will give the bud an aesthetic appearance.

10. We glue the bubble with glue and put the finished hat on the snowman.

11. Black beads will be eyes. Cut out a mouth and a carrot from velvet paper.

12. We do the handles in the same way as the spout. We “sculpt” the snowman itself - we spread glue and move in a spiral.

13. Let's start making a panicle. We paste over her handle with brown threads, moving with a “snake”.

14. We cut off several twigs from a home broom, bandage them and tie them to the finished handle.

15. We make an incision with a clerical knife and insert the panicle into one of the hands.

16. We glue the finished handles to the snowman.

17. It remains to tie a scarf. Lay out the green threads, moving up and down. And then add threads of a different color and move down.

18. Glue the resulting scarf.

19. Let's start decorating the Christmas tree. Tape it with double sided tape.

20. We remove the adhesive tape gradually from the lower tier. We glue the edge of the Christmas tree and move from the edge to the center.

21. In the same way, we cut off the adhesive tape from the subsequent tiers and glue them with threads.

22. It turned out a green Christmas tree, which only needs to be dressed up. We will hang beads and balls, and on the crown - an asterisk.

23. Cut out the strips with curly scissors and decorate the frame.

24. Using a figured hole punch, we will get Christmas trees and snowflakes, decorate the frame and background with them.

Human fantasy is limitless. All options for children's creativity can not be counted. Variety will always be interesting to the child. Thread applications are another option for children's creativity. Having started a passion for such creativity in kindergarten, complicating the pictures and improving the technique, this type of application will be interesting even in high school.

The technique for making children's applique from knitting threads is simple, it arose as a way out after the macrame technique - the remains of macrame were used for appliqué.

The development of children's motor skills, imagination, acquaintance with the outside world, colors, shapes - this is what an application of threads and glue can give. You can depict everything that the soul desires: birds, animals, insects, nature. Thanks to this original technique, a kitten, for example, can become fluffy and soft. For work, you can use templates or your own drawings. The finished work can be placed on burlap and framed. Such a gift will be appreciated.

Graceful kitty

In the older group of the kindergarten, the application of threads on cardboard "Cat" will be interesting. Imagine a master class doing work.

Materials: cardboard, pencil, scissors, PVA glue with a brush, several colors of knitting threads. Colors can be chosen according to your taste, but they must match the possible natural color of the cat.

Let's get started:

1. We fold the threads several times and cut them no more than 1 cm long. So with each color. We take a ready-made cat silhouette template, draw it or print it. Now everything is ready for the design of the picture.

2. The next step is to transfer the drawing to cardboard. To do this, simply circle it on cardboard. We draw lines that will delimit the different colors of the cat. Draw eyes, nose and mouth. The photo shows an example with ready-made parts that you can buy at a needlework store or cut off from an unnecessary toy.

3. Let's start gluing wool. For maximum neatness of the work, we apply glue to all areas of the same color and apply threads. Then we move on to another color, and so on. It is recommended to apply light threads at the beginning, and the darkest threads at the end.

4. The cat is almost ready. In order for the work not to be deformed, we leave it under pressure for a day. For example, under a stack of books. Then there was only the decor. From the remnants of woolen threads we glue a mustache. If desired, you can make the cat more elegant by gluing a bow.

original dandelion

For schoolchildren, a more complex manner of execution will be of interest, which includes different types of appliqué, taking into account the appliqué of threads. Let's show on the example of the painting "Dandelion".

Materials for doing the work: glue, scissors, pencil, yellow and green woolen threads for knitting, paints, toothbrush, green colored paper or dandelion leaf herbarium, a sheet of white cardboard.

Let's start the manufacturing process:

1. Prepare the background of the picture. To do this, we take a toothbrush and using watercolor paints we make splashes of both yellow and green colors.

3. We take a green knitting thread. We fold several times and cut into small pieces no more than one centimeter.

4. Glue the cut threads onto the previously prepared dandelion leaves.

5. Cut out the stems from green colored paper and glue them onto the prepared background.

6. We form a bush. We glue the leaves and the bases of the buds (sepals) from the previously cut green threads.

7. We take a piece of paper, fold it several times and wind a yellow woolen thread in one direction.

8. Carefully remove the yellow thread and tie tightly in the middle.

9. Cut the threads on both sides and fluff the bud.

10. Repeat steps 7, 8 and 9. There should be as many buds as the petals were glued to the picture.

11. The final point will be the attachment of the buds.

Another option can be a simpler and easier version of a children's thread application. It can also be used in preschools. Print out the dandelion pattern. We take finely chopped yellow and green threads, glue. We generously grease the template with glue and glue the threads.

Pictures from threads - fascinating creativity with your own hands

Pictures from threads - fascinating creativity with your own hands

If you want to make something bright and unusual with your own hands or spend time with a child with benefit, then why not try to create pictures from threads - this is a very exciting and fun art that will require quite a bit: patience, imagination and a few tools.
In general, drawing with threads is called "nitkography" and they have already come up with several interesting ways to create a panel of such a plan. We will consider the main types, each of which is based on a thread, and the rest of the tools differ.
A step-by-step simple master class of each method will help you make an original gift for family or friends. It is not boring to create pictures from threads, but on the contrary it is very exciting, I can’t wait to see the end result, but haste is the main enemy of creativity. And if you are a very impatient person, then this type of needlework is perfect for training endurance.

Types of pictures from threads

You can make a thread picture in any of the following ways:

• thread appliqué (cuts of yarn of different lengths or scraps crocheted into pigtails);
• to sink with the help of carnations and threads (a contour of nails is nailed to the base board, to which the threads are hooked, while catching opposite carnations, and not those nearby);
• application of finely cut threads;
• panel embroidered with threads;
• embroidery in the technique of isothreading on cardboard.

Further, already on specific examples, we will tell you how to make a picture using each of these methods and you will see that everything is not as difficult as it might have seemed at first.
Such an activity perfectly develops the imagination of both children and adults, and hand-made paintings will decorate any interior or serve as unique gifts.

Application from threads of different lengths

“Drawing with threads is no more difficult than drawing with felt-tip pens,” say experienced needlewomen. However, this is not quite true. For a picture of yarn, you will need many differences:

• dense base (preferably not cardboard, but a sheet of fiberboard);
• frame for the future picture;
• multi-colored yarn;
• PVA glue (or a bottle of other resistant glue);
• brush or cotton swabs;
• simple pencil;
• scissors.

First, the future image is drawn with a pencil on the basis (for the first time, choose something simpler, for example, a kolobok).
Under this sketch, select the colors of the threads. Acrylic ones look best, as they are very bright and beautiful, but all the rest are also good: the remnants of yarn, floss, etc. Only the uniform thickness of the threads and the non-smooth structure are important. It will also be difficult for beginners to work with shaggy or curly threads, although they give interesting effects, they are more difficult to handle.
Then we move the glue and scissors closer and proceed to create our first thread picture.


With the help of glue and a brush (cotton bud), we draw a line along the contour of the pattern and, pressing the thread with our fingers, lay out the thread (or a braid of yarn). After the entire contour is glued with threads, we begin to lay them inside and out, changing the colors and length of the threads. We begin to glue small details from the inside of the drawn contour.
Press the threads to each other very tightly to avoid voids, otherwise the work will not look beautiful and not of high quality.
When you have finished pasting the image, leave it to dry. And after the finished picture, you can steam it with an iron through a wet cloth so that the threads lie more evenly.
In the end, we are already thinking about the frame. It is not difficult to make it yourself, the master class of a simple frame is easy to find on our website.
And the picture, by the way, can be safely vacuumed in the future, without fear that the work will deteriorate.

How to make a picture of threads and nails

Pictures from threads and nails are created without glue and this is no longer drawing with threads, completely different tools will be needed here:

• base (any wooden sheet, wall or cork board);
• threads of any color;
• scissors;
• cloves;
• hammer.

Cork boards are light in weight and you won't need a hammer, but if you don't have one, you can nail studs to any wooden surface that you can pre-paint somehow. It is also better to take care in advance how the picture will then be attached to the wall.
Now we draw with our own hands any image or word on the base and nail the carnations along the contour and pull the threads on them.
At the very beginning, we fix the thread by tying it with a strong knot on the first carnation. Further, with a little tension, we cling the thread to the next carnations in a chaotic manner or according to a scheme invented by ourselves. As you can see, everything is simple, and the process itself is so exciting that you don’t want to stop.
If you want to make the picture multi-colored, you can use threads of different colors. You can pre-make a long multi-colored thread from them. And you can also move from color to color, tying knots as at the beginning.
The result is a very beautiful and original panel of threads.

Application of finely cut threads

For this application, the threads are cut finely, finely, literally into fractions of a millimeter in length. From such material, truly chic paintings are obtained, which cannot be distinguished from oil paintings at a short distance. However, the preparation and the process of creating such images requires a lot of patience and a lot of time. But such drawing can also be done with children: adults prepare the materials for work, and the kid selects colors and attaches the trimmings with glue.


The length of the threads is important here - the smaller they are cut, the better the pattern will turn out. You can distribute the cut segments into bags or boxes. To make it convenient to take them and sprinkle the right place.
Next, carefully press the threads with your fingers to the base. Having applied the primary colors in this way (the background of the sky above, for example, and the green field below), let the work dry well, it will take several hours for this. When the threads are completely dry, you can remove the extra (not stuck) threads by simply brushing them off with a brush that you use to clean your clothes.
Next, we continue gluing all other sections and again wait until it dries. After that, you can try to apply flowers, trees to an already dead field. Hut, etc. corresponding shades. Let the work dry again.
That's all - the panel is ready.
This technique is considered not just an application - it is real drawing. Someone draws with sand, and someone - with threads.
And here it is also not necessary to have the ability of an artist, it is enough to copy the finished picture or print it on a printer, using it later as a basis.

Pictures embroidered with threads

It is also not difficult to embroider pictures, if you do not take too complex schemes for a start. The methods here are also different: satin stitch, cross stitch, semi-cross, etc. Most often, to gain skills, it is better to use a ready-made kit, where you will find everything you need. But if there is no set, but you want to try this very second, then we will prepare the following tools:

• multi-colored threads;
• needles depending on the thickness of the thread used;
• the basis on which you will embroider;
• decor elements of the finished picture (beads, ribbons, etc.).

Picture embroidered with satin stitchThink what you want to depict: any plot, landscape, portrait, animal or children's cartoon characters.
You can choose any picture or photo you like. With the help of modern technology, you can easily find a way to turn a picture into a pattern for embroidery. With the help of specialized programs, you can create a diagram yourself or use graph paper with colored pencils.
Yes, and it will not be easy to choose colors, because you need to ensure that the shades are without strong contrast for the greatest harmony. If the colors are chosen correctly, then the panel will turn out to be interesting and beautiful.
Then we decide on the background, because usually embroidered on a special fabric, such as canvas, which has different mesh sizes and colors. Many try to draw a tree on their own, for example, and embroider it without any patterns.
Small stitches are best suited for embroidering portraits from photographs, so the work will look neater.

Isothread embroidery on cardboard

Cardboard embroidery is a special technique when embroidery is reproduced not on material, but on cardboard, which is also called thread graphics or thread design. Paintings created using this technique are very popular because of the ease of execution and due to their interesting appearance. Often they teach how to make such a panel of threads in kindergarten, because this is an affordable and exciting activity for every child.
To embroider with isothread on cardboard you will need:

• the basis;
• scissors;
• an awl and a regular needle;
• floss threads, ordinary bobbin or silk;
• simple pencil;
• ruler;
• compass.

For paintings decorated with isothread, they usually take colored cardboard or thick velvet paper. On the basis, they draw a diagram or translate the picture they like (it is useful for beginners to master geometric shapes: circles, triangles, rhombuses, rectangles, etc. You can try simple compositions from corners and circles - a Christmas tree, a flower or a snowman).
When embroidering with isothread, it is important to follow three rules:

fill in the circle

fill in the corner

fill in the arcs.

Let's show a master class on how to work with a triangle. Draw a triangle on the reverse side of the cardboard, mark holes with an awl at an equal distance from each other (preferably from the front side of the base). The points should be numbered (there should be an even number) as follows: from bottom to top from 1 to 10, then from the top again from 1 to 10. That is, at the base of the triangle we get the number 1 on the left, on the right - 10. And we begin to embroider.
Having tied a knot on the needle, we pass the needle through the right number 10 and lead to the top 10-ke. We thread the needle with the thread that came out in the top 10 into the 9, which is nearby and lead to the 9 at the bottom, and so we go through all the numbers: from 8 to 8, from 7 to 7, from 6 to 6, etc.
The image, respectively, is obtained on cardboard from the front side.
The panels should be embroidered carefully and smoothly - you do not need to pull the thread too hard, otherwise the cardboard or it will tear.


It is better to choose threads not matte, but with a sheen - they look more interesting, and if there are several threads, then they must be twisted, otherwise the embroidery on cardboard will not look neat.
Remember, it doesn’t matter that your panel embroidery doesn’t always turn out perfect, it’s important that this activity is a pleasure for you and your child. And if you needlework with interest, then the pictures will turn out beautiful and original.
With your own hands, you can create works of art that will give a cozy and warm atmosphere to your home.
And as a gift to friends or family, thread pictures are a great idea.
The application of threads on wood, fabric or embroidery on cardboard always surprises others, because the pictures look very chic. It's great that everyone can make something elegant with their own hands and you don't need to master drawing here - you just need your desire!

APPLIQUE FROM THREADS. MASTER CLASS.

The technique of drawing with threads is called nitkography. Drawing with threads is the same as drawing with a felt-tip pen, only the line needs to be glued to the base.

We take a very dense sheet of cardboard or, even better, a sheet of fiberboard and apply a drawing of our future cat on it.
We select threads. We attach particular importance to the color scheme of future work. Any threads can be used: leftover yarn for knitting is quite suitable, acrylic threads of bright colors are very well suited, floss in several additions is also suitable, the main thing is that the threads are approximately the same thickness.
For beginners, do not use threads with a non-smooth structure. Too shaggy or curly threads can give wonderful effects, but they are more difficult to work with.

When the threads are selected, we take glue, scissors and a toothpick - this will be our simple tool.
I use construction glue for sticking foam baseboards.
You can use any polymer waterproof glue, there are many types, and I advise you to choose less odorous ones.
If you are making pussy with small children, you should carefully read the instructions for airing the room on the glue bottle of your choice.

We smear the line on the cardboard with glue, to spread the glue with a thin layer, use a toothpick, or any thin stick. The brush is not suitable for this. In the future, it is convenient to spread glue with a stick in hard-to-reach places between the glued threads.
Glue the thread to the wet glue. We press it gradually with our fingers, laying it out according to the pattern. We cut the end of the thread with scissors after it has been glued to the place where a sharp impossible turn of the thread is required, or when a different color is needed.

First, we glue along the contour of a large pattern, then we fill the space inside. And for small details, on the contrary, first inside, then along the contour.

We glue the threads as tightly as possible to each other so that there are no gaps left, then your work will be of high quality and beautiful.

When we glue the part of the cat, we are sure that it will be exactly the color we decided. But if after the sticker we definitely decided that it should be of a different color, and this color does not suit her at all, then here we thank the creators of the multilayer thick cardboard or fiberboard, which we took as a basis.

Let's see how I made the red tongue orange in the middle. With the help of a paper knife, I cut along the desired contour the surface whose color I want to change, and tear it off from work along with the top layer of paper. And in this place I glue threads of a different desired color. In this job, therefore, I changed not only the color of the tongue, but also the color of the muzzle of the pussy. This operation can be repeated several times until the cardboard layer becomes very thin.

Our glue sticks tightly, holds well, without the top layer of paper it will not come off. But even with the further operation of the work, it will be possible to vacuum it, wash it with a damp sponge and soap, and not be afraid that the threads will fly off.

When we make the edge of the work, do not cut each thread separately. It won't save much material. You can bring the threads outside the work, and then cut immediately with a whole line. These shaggy edges of our work are easily hidden in a frame under a baguette.

And, finally, a little secret: if the finished work is steamed with an iron through a wet rag, gauze, then the threads will press against each other and will look smoother.
Good luck in creativity!

Crafts using the technique of thread appliqué look original, the methods of working with it are simple and provide unlimited opportunities for creative self-expression.

Making applications from threads is an interesting, exciting, accessible and useful process.

The child develops creativity, perseverance, patience, imaginative thinking, fine motor skills.

It must be remembered that the first acquaintance with this technique should start with simple ideas, regardless of the age of the child. Also, at the initial stage, it is worth helping and guiding the child and be sure to encourage and praise.

To make a thread appliqué you will need:

1. PVA glue;

2. Balls of colored threads;

3. Brush for glue;

4. Scissors;

5. Cardboard with a sketch.

Making applications from threads:

1. It is necessary to carefully work out every detail of the sketch.

2. If necessary, the design of the outline of the pattern with black threads (not a mandatory step).

3. Cut the threads of the desired color in such a size that would correspond to the idea of ​​\u200b\u200bthis application, and also correspond to the age and skills of the child.

For example, if a child is 4 years old and this is his first acquaintance with a thread application, then you need to choose an idea in which the threads will not be too small. If the child is a schoolboy and he has experience with thread applications, then you can grind the threads into fluff and gently apply them to the application with tweezers.

4. Lay out the prepared threads, it is necessary on the pattern, previously liberally lubricated with PVA glue. Moreover, the entire drawing is not smeared with glue at once, but only those places that are being worked on at the moment. Work is done from top to bottom.

5. Having filled the space of the entire drawing, the work needs to dry out.
