Ladybug made of plastic spoons

Everyone from childhood remembers and loves beautiful red bugs with black dots. Any child, no doubt, will enjoy making such crafts from disposable tableware.

To work, you will need the following tools and materials:

• Three disposable spoons;
• Flat button without through holes;
• White, red and black acrylic paints;
• Paint brush;
• Scissors;
• Wire;
• Glue gun.

At the very beginning, it is necessary to cover the prepared spoons with paint, apply red on two spoons, and black on one. After the paint has completely dried on red spoons, you should draw dots in black. The button also needs to be painted black, and draw eyes with white paint on the sides.

Now you need to cut off the handles from the spoons with scissors, trimming the edges for beauty.

The next step is gluing the red winged spoons by stacking them one on top of the other. Here you will need a glue gun.

Then the finished wings are glued to the black spoon-body of the ladybug.

A button-head is glued to the base of the spoon-wings. If you want, you can make a mustache out of wire and glue them to an impromptu head.

So that the ladybug can be seated on a pot of flowers, a thicker wire is glued to the black spoon. Thus our ladybug from spoons is ready, now you can send it to the flowers.

Fan of disposable forks

• Red and white lace;
• Red satin ribbons;
• beads;
• Glue;
• Cardboard or disposable paper plate;
• CD-ROM;
• Simple pencil;
• Scissors.

On a cardboard or paper plate, we trace a CD with a pencil, cut a circle along the contour and cut it exactly into two halves. Lay out on the outside of the semicircle main attribute so that the heads of the forks are pressed tightly against each other. In this position, the forks are glued to the cardboard semicircle with handles, about two centimeters from the edge. And a second semicircle of cardboard is glued on top.

Now you can start decorating the fan. Flowers are cut out of white lace and glued to each fork. You can also thread red lace between the handles of the forks at the base of the fan, and glue lace flowers with beads on the cardboard and fasten a bow from satin ribbon. This craft, despite the apparent fragility, can last a long time if high-quality materials are used when creating.

This will add strength to the finished craft. And you can safely play with it.
