Easter chicken made from magazine tubes
To weave a dish in the shape of an Easter chicken you will need:
•magazine tubes – 66 pieces;
•newspaper tubes – 11 pieces
•PVA glue;
•glue;
•scissors;
• clothespins.
To create an oval bottom, 16 red magazine tubes are selected. The sticks are laid out in pairs, then a rectangular lattice is woven from them. The working tube entering the process is bent in half and braided around the grate in a simple weave. The bottom is made in four tight rows. The paired bars of the lattice are spread apart and woven separately, gradually the red rectangle turns into an oval. On both sides of the bottom, two pairs are left for the head and tail; they are braided together until the end of the weaving.
All red tubes bend vertically and turn into stands. Now the walls of the product are created using the same weaving, expanding with each row by tilting the racks. To complete the walls you will need 9 rows.
The work is completed by folding the racks behind each other, leaving 3 racks for the chicken’s head, the central rack is steamy. At the opposite end, one pair of tail stands is also left.
The neck and head of the chicken are produced by spiral weaving. The left racks are unbent in different directions, another working tube is applied to them, the work is carried out by laying the vines on top of each other in a circle. After going through several circles for the neck, the spiral expands. Having completed a sufficient number of wide circles, the process is completed, the remaining twigs are cut and glued together.
Rings are twisted from soft newspaper vines, from which droplets are formed by loosening the winding. The finished elements are smeared with paper glue and left to dry. In total, you need to make 9 droplets.
Three droplets in the form of a scallop are attached to the top of the chicken's head with special glue. On the other hand, a bird's tail is formed from six elements of drops. The finished dish is varnished with a rosewood-colored impregnation.
