On the Internet it is not so often possible to meet crafts in the form of such a musical instrument as the button accordion. And this is understandable, since making it is not so simple. To create such a masterpiece will require a lot of time, patience, skill and imagination. This craft can be made as a gift for a person who plays the button accordion. Surely, someone's grandfather is not indifferent to this instrument, so for him this will be a wonderful gift from his grandson or granddaughter, which, among other things, is made with the soul.
So, the following materials will be required:

Styrofoam.
Lilac crepe paper.
Crepe paper in beige.
Crepe paper in pink.
Corrugated paper green.
Corrugated paper is white.
Corrugated paper is black.
Green film.
White paper.
Cardboard.
Gold color ribbon.
Glue gun.
Scotch.
Ruler.
Red glossy paper.
Wooden skewer.
A pen of any color.

From the foam, we cut out the side parts for the button accordion, 15 cm high and 11 cm wide. One part has a front side width of 7.5 cm and the other 12 cm. We cut out the part from the cardboard on which the round flat buttons will be located. Wrap the foam well with ordinary tape so that paper can be glued to it. We glue all the three parts obtained with crepe paper of lilac color. Now you need to make fur for the button accordion. We take blank white paper and beige crepe paper. Cut from them 2 strips 11 cm wide, 20 cm long. Then we cut 2 more strips 19 cm wide, 24 cm long. We fold the strips of white paper with an accordion. Then, using glue gun, glue beige paper to white strips.

Glue the resulting furs to the two parts made earlier.

In order for the button accordion to look more natural and you could play a little on it, then we glue the opposite sides of the fur and fix it with cardboard stripes. Glue a gold ribbon to the places where the paper was glued.

We cut out 10 circles of cardboard with a diameter of about 2 cm. Glue 5 circles with white corrugated paper, and the remaining 5 with black corrugated paper. We attach to the button accordion the part on which these buttons will be located. Using glue, glue the buttons in the order as shown in the photo.

Crumple ordinary paper in the form of balls and paste them with white and black corrugated paper, these will be the buttons on the other side of the button accordion. Glue them in the same order as in the photo. Around them we glue for beauty with a gold ribbon.

Let's make a small stand for the button accordion. Cut a rectangle along the length of the button accordion from thick cardboard and glue it with blue corrugated paper. Glue small pieces of foam and blue paper on the edge of this part.

We give the glue to dry and put the button accordion in the stand.

Russian folk button accordion is always associated with flowers. We cut out 24 pieces of pink crepe paper with a width of 2.5 cm and a length of 5.5 cm. We stretch each piece. Fold in half and cut in the form of a half heart. We open and with the help of a wooden skewer we wrap the edges, giving the petals the desired shape.

From foam and red glossy paper we make a small ball for the middle of the flower. We glue this ball with the obtained petals, that is, for each flower you need 8 petals. From green corrugated paper, cut 2 leaves for each flower.
