Now we know how to make a star and can start working on a memorial, about which I wrote in detail for you below.

How to make an Eternal Flame from improvised materials - step by step instructions

Take colored paper or even cardboard and make a star as shown in the video. However, you can do it a little differently, draw your template along the ruler, cut it out and gently bend along the contours.

Poke a hole in the middle with an awl in order to insert a fire. Later, when we make it, we will insert it into this hole.

Now out plain paper, you can even take a leaf from a notebook or notepad, make a small bag. Fix it with glue.

Then take crepe paper or just use paper napkins red and yellow color. Cut them into strips about 2-3 cm wide.

Coat the bag with glue and start gluing strips, alternating colors. Paste the bag in a circle in two or three rows so that the fire is more voluminous. And from above, tear off the ends of the strips or make a fringe with scissors.

Insert the fire blank into the hole we made in the star. If the hole is small, the hole will need to be enlarged further. And the craft will be ready.

The result is such a memorial of the Eternal Flame. But the truth is, when you know how to do it, it turns out quite easily.

Paper application in the form of the Eternal Flame

You can make this craft out of colored paper. First, cut out a circle, stick a star on it and bend it along the floors. And then with front side glue the cut-out blanks of fire and leaflets.

If your child is still very small, then draw and cut out the blanks yourself, and let him stick them on.

Crafts for Victory Day for a competition at school

This craft can be done using colored paper, crepe paper (it is also called ornamental paper or corrugated paper). And also in this craft, ordinary corrugated cardboard boxes, a plastic bottle and pictures and numbers printed on a color printer are used. And, of course, brushes, glue, paints.

And then stick these blanks on cardboard from the box, for volume. Paint the numbers with mother-of-pearl yellow gouache, and then orange.

And stick all the blanks on the middle plate.

5. Cut blanks for the flame from yellow and red crepe paper, collect them into a bouquet, glue and insert into the center of the star.

Here is such a craft may well win first place in the competition. It looks good. Or here is another option, made according to the same principle.

You can also use, for example, a box of pizza or shoes. In general, what are at hand, take those and wrap them with colored paper. Wow, how beautiful it is.

Master class on making a tank for a competition in kindergarten

A tank and other military equipment are also an attribute of the holiday, because on May 9, military parades are held everywhere showing military equipment. Therefore, such a craft would also be appropriate to do. Can be made from various materials for creativity or take improvised means.

Here is just this craft from improvised means that were at hand: matchboxes, matches, cardboard cut out of the box, colored paper, holiday card, scissors and glue.

1. Take the cut out cardboard from the box, make a 12x12 cm square, divide it into 9 squares and glue one square first. Then we will carefully put matches on it, tightly pressed against each other. Place each match head in different sides. When you glue one square, put the matches on the next one in a different way.

2. For the tank, cut out two rectangles from green colored paper - 11x13.5 cm and 6x7 cm. We will glue the matchboxes with this paper, like blanks for the tank. Wrap and cover with green paper first one box, and then the other two boxes glued together. This will be the top and bottom of the tank.

3. In a small piece, make a hole with an awl for the muzzle. And the muzzle itself can be made and matches and painted with a felt-tip pen in green color. Glue the top piece to the bottom piece. Then grease the hole with glue and insert a match.

4. Next, you need to make a caterpillar. Take the cut piece from the box and peel off the top layer, then cut two strips about one cm wide. Then coat with glue and glue to the tank on both sides. Leave the tank to dry.

5. And from the postcard, you can cut and paste several elements for decoration.

This is the exposition we got from simple improvised means.

I had to tinker a little, especially with a panel of matches, but on the other hand, such a craft can also be safely carried to a competition in a kindergarten or school.

We make a tank from improvised means

Very simple craft from such improvised materials as toilet paper sleeves, matchboxes, craft paper and corrugated cardboard.

1. Take three bushings, glue them together and glue around toilet paper so that the bushings do not move apart, paint the edges with black paint on both sides.

2. Wrap them with craft (packing) paper. Make caterpillars from silver corrugated paper or even cardboard. Matchbox also paste over the craft paper and make a barrel out of it. Make a hole in the box for the muzzle.

3. You can stick a star for decoration or decorate it somehow, as you see fit.

And it turned out to be such a simple craft. Even a preschooler can do it.

Ideas on how to make a tank from various materials

See how else you can make a dancer. For example, from corrugated ornamental cardboard. Cut the cardboard into strips of the same width and twist all the details. And, of course, use glue.

And they also come out of plasticine great crafts. Plasticine is also a common and favorite material for children's creativity. For little kids, it will probably be more convenient way, they always like to twist something in their hands.

You can also make an application on paper from plasticine. Pinch off some plasticine and smear it, helping yourself with a stack. You can draw a template in advance for convenience. Or make plasticine balls and attach to paper.

And the tank can also be made from ordinary household sponges for washing dishes. Wow, he's so cute. For gluing, you can use double tape.
