What to do with a child during quarantine: make a cat from a toilet paper roll

As a basis for crafts choose a thick toilet paper roll. We repaint it in the desired color. Glue the parts from colored paper. We add a piece of fluffy wire and a thin ribbon. So we will end up with a cute black and white cat.

Materials for making three-dimensional crafts:

• - white and yellow paper;
  
• - palette;
  
• - brush;
  
• - black gouache;
  
• - cardboard toilet paper tube;
  
• - glue;
  
• - black chenille wire;
  
• - black felt-tip pen;
  
• - thin red ribbon.

Stages of making a black cat:

1. We spread black gouache on the palette. You can add a little white.

2. Meanwhile, we will make the base for the cat’s body from a cardboard toilet paper roll. To do this, bend the upper part, as in the photo. First one half, and then the other.

3. Completely paint the cardboard base for the craft with black gouache.

4. From white paper we cut out a tummy for the cat, as well as a nose. Let's make eyes from the yellow one.

5. Glue all the parts to the appropriate places.We complete the pupils with a black felt-tip pen.


6. We will make a tail from chenille wire. To do this, first create a hole with the sharp tip of the scissors and secure the wire in it. Give the tail the desired shape.


7. Use a thin ribbon to make a decoration around the cat’s neck. We finish with a bow.
