First, collect plastic containers for all neighbors and friends. Suitable bottles of any color and size. The more you collect this material, the larger your craft will be.
The second stage is the manufacture of feathers from plastic. From one bottle, on average, 3-4 feathers are obtained. Cut them easily with ordinary scissors. Just cut the neck and bottom of the bottle, and cut the middle part into oblong oval blanks. To add texture, cut the fringe at the edges. For one bird, feathers of different sizes are needed.
You also need to prepare a base - a strong wooden board. Paws of birds and wings can be made of thin plastic pipes. The body and head are cut out of polystyrene foam and are wrapped with a mounting mesh (or metal mesh). To attach the feathers you need screws. Prepare a foam cylinder, spray paint and a little corrugated pipe.
And now you will learn about the secrets of making some examples of work.
Capercaillie
This bird has a magnificent tail and its head is raised up. It is these characteristics that need to be transferred in the manufacture of crafts. Fix the cuts from the plastic pipe to the board - these will be the legs. Cut the trunk and neck from foam, connect with a mounting foam. Attach a metal mesh in the shape of a circle to the back of the torso and cut the wings out of it. After that, begin to fix the feathers of an oval oblong shape with screws. You need to move from bottom to top and back to front, constantly overlapping the caps of the screws of the previous row. The beak is two triangles made of plastic, and the eyes are black large beads. Feathers are painted from spray cans of green, red, yellow and white.
Owl
To make such a bird, it is better to use brown plastic bottles. The eagle owl's feathers are short but lush, so the edges of the plastic blanks need a little scorching with a lighter. This will add texture to the craft.
The body and head must be cut out of polystyrene foam, placed on plastic tubes and fixed to a wooden stand. Then, moving from bottom to top, you need to fix the feathers on the screws. The eyes are made of white plastic, and the pupils are made of disposable spoons. Toes are cut from a thin corrugated hose.
You can paint an eagle owl with golden spray paint.
Stork
White (dairy) and brown plastic bottles are suitable for making a stork. For wings, blanks should be with a fringe, and for the body without it. On the neck you need to cut strips of bottles and on the one hand make a fringe.
On a stable board are fixed two long plastic tubes. On them is a ten-liter canister at an angle, neck up. Slightly curved pieces of thin pipe are attached to the sides, and a larger diameter pipe must be fixed in the opening of the canister. The canister and wing sections are wrapped in metal mesh. Plastic oval blanks are gradually fixed on them.
The stork’s head is made of an old ball, and the beak is cut out of a plastic bottle.
After manufacturing, you only need to paint your head with white paint and draw eyes, and cover your beak and legs with red paint. The stork is an impressive size.
Flamingo
This bird has long legs, a thin elongated neck and a large beak. For its manufacture, plastic bottles of any color are suitable. The body is a large canister, from the bottom of which legs are attached - long thin tubes. Fingers are pieces of corrugated hose. From the same hose you need to make the neck by threading it on a solid wire to give the neck the necessary bends. The head is cut out of dense foam.
The craft should be painted in pale pink, and the beak in white and black. The eyes of a bird are made of beads.
These are the original jewelry for the summer cottage can be made from waste material.
