DIY drawings of Pinocchio made of wood. How to make Pinocchio from plasticine

The wooden boy with a long nose, who found the treasured golden key and opened the magic door in Papa Carlo's closet, is familiar to all children. Pinocchio is one of the most beloved fairy tale characters. Let's try to make it out of plasticine to have fun with the kids. We have already sculpted a boy from plasticine together with you in one of the previous lessons. All this knowledge can be used to create this craft. Just let’s not forget that Pinocchio’s distinctive feature is a very long nose, and this character also wore a striped cap and bright clothes. Stock up necessary materials and start some exciting creativity based on our tips.

1. To work, you will need several blocks of multi-colored plasticine: yellow, white, red, blue, brown and orange.

2. Knead the yellow piece in your hands and roll it into a ball, lightly pressing it with your palm onto the flat surface of the modeling board. This is the base for Pinocchio's head made of plasticine.

4. Make a mouth from a drop of pink, and eyes from white and blue.

5. Combine a red top hat with orange stripes to create a colorful cap for our fairy boy.

6. Place the hat on your head and let tousled strands of hair come out from under the cap.

7. Moving on to sculpting the body, take a match and half a red block. Knead the plasticine in your hands, then stick a block with sleeves onto the match, imitating a T-shirt.

8. Make a collar and buttons from white plasticine.

9. A match will not only help make the figurine more stable, but will also allow you to fasten ready-made parts. Insert match halves into the sleeves as well.

10. Make hands from yellow plasticine and put them on previously prepared matches.

11. Knead a third of the blue block in your hands, make a cone-shaped part and cut its wider part with a plastic stack. These will be shorts for Pinocchio.

The content of the article:

Writer Alexei Tolstoy wrote about the adventures of a brave, mischievous boy. This fairy tale was read by people who had already become adults when they were still children. To make today's boys and girls fall in love with it, tell them briefly what the story is about. Sew costumes for them, act out a play with them based on this work.

Summary of “The Golden Key, or the Adventures of Pinocchio”

Toddlers have a hard time understanding long stories, so tell them the story in your own words.

It all started in the Mediterranean. The organ grinder Carlo lived here. One day his friend Giuseppe came to him and brought him a log. A friend said that Carlo was all alone and alone, there was no one to help the old man, and from a log he could make himself a son.

The organ grinder got to work, and soon the log took on the shape of a boy. But when Carlo wanted to shorten his long nose, the workpiece screamed, and he had to leave his facial features that way.

When the organ grinder went to buy clothes for the wooden child, he at that time met the cricket, but managed to quarrel with him. The wise denizen of the closet told Pinocchio that behind the painted hearth there was a secret door that could be opened with a golden key.

But on the way there, the mischievous man stopped at a puppet theater to watch a performance. During the proceedings, he stands up for the unjustly offended character and disrupts the performance.

The owner of the puppet theater Karabas Barabas wanted to punish Buratino, burn him like a log. However, the boy admits that it is impossible to burn it, since he once saw a fireplace, but only poked a hole in it with his nose.

Karabas Barabas perked up, it became clear that he knew the secret of the golden key. Having sent Buratino home, the owner of the puppet theater even gave him money so that he and his father would not die of hunger. Karabas Barabas told them not to leave the closet.

When everyone left, the owner of the puppet theater called his friend Duremar, told him where the secret door was, and the key was hidden with the turtle Tortilla.

But this does not end the summary of The Golden Key, or the adventures of Pinocchio. As a result, the wise Tortilla gave the key to the good Pinocchio. At the end of the fairy tale, he and his friends from the puppet theater open a secret door.

But on the way to success, the little mischief-maker had to show his ingenuity and courage. This is the only way he was able to escape from the clutches of the cunning fox Alice and the cat Basilio. Pinocchio helped Malvina, Artemon and Pierrot escape from Karabas Barabas and Duremar.

The fairy tale “The Golden Key” ends positively. A new puppet theater was waiting for the friends behind the door, in which they would now perform.

After you have introduced the children to summary fairy tales “The Golden Key or the Adventures of Pinocchio”, you can act out scenes with the participation of these characters. Now the guys will know who has what character, what representative of the fairy-tale puppet theater looks like.

Sew costumes in which the kids can have fun at a matinee or at a home party.

How to sew a Pinocchio costume with your own hands?

Of course, one of the main details of his outfit is the cap. To sew such a hat you will need:

fabric red and white(you can take a striped canvas);
scissors;
threads;
pompom tassel.

You need to make a pattern. The base of the cap is a cone. Measure the volume of the child's head, so many centimeters will be the widest part of this figure.

Here, the Pinocchio cap is made for a child whose head volume is 50 cm. As you can see, this cone will need to be attached to the fabric, cut out with seam allowances, and the opposite edges of the triangle connected to form a cap.

It's good if you have white fabric with red stripes. If you don’t have one, then you need to sew red ribbons on a white fabric or white ones on a red one.

Fold the cap under at the bottom, leaving enough space to then insert the elastic there. Then the hat will not come off the child’s head. Make a fabric tassel or a white or red pom-pom from yarn and sew it onto the end of the hat.

Our hero's spacious jacket looks like a wide T-shirt. To make the Pinocchio costume further, copy the presented pattern. You can increase or decrease as required.

You can do it easier by taking a child’s T-shirt that is still too big for him and making a pattern based on this item.

If the size of the collar cutout of the jacket is sufficient for the child to put it on over his head without difficulty, then do not make a fastener. In this case, you will need to cut out one whole piece for the front and back. If the neckline of the T-shirt makes it difficult to dress, then you need to cut out two parts of the back, and then make a fastener or tie between them.

Sew the details, sew the sleeves into the armholes. Process the neck and bottom of the product. The pattern will also help you sew shorts.

You need to remake this pattern and cut out 2 parts. Now grind crotch seams, then the side ones. Hem the bottom of the product, hem it up to insert an elastic band here.

Cut out a collar from white fabric and sew it onto the top of the jacket. Here's how to make a Pinocchio costume with your own hands. White knee socks, shoes or slippers will complete the look.

All that remains is to make a golden key.

For this you will need:

cardboard;
glue;
gold foil or gold paint with a brush;
scotch;
scissors.

Draw the presented key template on a sheet of cardboard and cut it out. Make a few more of these blanks and glue them together. If the key consists of 3-4 cardboard elements, it will acquire the necessary rigidity.

When the glue dries, you will need to paint the key with gold paint or wrap it in gold foil, securing it with tape.

The hero's clothes are ready, Malvina's costume needs to be made. Any girl will want to play her role. Prepare everything you need and get started.

Malvina's costume from the fairy tale “The Golden Key”

If this pattern works for your daughter, niece or granddaughter, use it. You can increase or decrease the provided template by one size, add or decrease a little in the center or on the sides. These are the parts it consists of this dress Malvina:

in front of the top of the dress - one piece;
back - 2 parts;
sleeves - 2 pieces;
collar - 4 parts;
flounces for a skirt.

Making master class:

First you need to make recesses, pasting them according to the indicated marks on the front and back. Sew the 2 back pieces together, leaving a small space at the top unsewn so you can then sew in a zipper or sew on a button with an eyelet.
Sew the front and back bodice pieces on the sides. Sew in the sewn sleeves.
In place of the sleeves, indicated by a dotted line on the pattern, you must first sew in a soft elastic band, stretching it slightly. Then the cuffs will be fluffy.
Stitch the collar pieces together and sew them onto the neckline.
Gather your skirt. To do this you need to cut out several rectangles. different sizes. They are collected on a thread from above. Now place these shuttlecocks one on top of the other so that the largest is at the bottom and the smallest is at the top.

You can do it differently - first sew a flared skirt, and sew flounces of the same width onto it.

Here's how to sew Malvina's costume using a different pattern.

Another detail of this heroine’s clothing is pantaloons. The pattern below will help you create them.

As you can see, you need to baste the pants, make drawstrings, into which elastic bands are then threaded and secured. If you managed to buy a blue wig, when Malvina's costume will be complemented with this item. If this did not work out, then it is enough to tie a large bow or a silk scarf of the same color on the girl’s head, and the image will be complete.

All that remains is to put on the girl beautiful shoes and tights, and Malvina’s costume is ready.

How to sew a Pierrot costume?

This is another fairy tale character.

You can very quickly make a costume for Pierrot. For this you will need a large White shirt. The cuts on the sleeves need to be continued, and puffy cuffs should be sewn at the bottom. The bottom of the pants must be decorated in the same way.
Attach the cardboard circles to the fabric, cut out the same circles from it, but with a margin to tuck the edges under the cardboard, then sew these buttons onto Pierrot’s robe.
Make a cap for it from whatman paper, rolling it into a cone. All that remains is to apply black and white makeup to your face to complete the look.
See how to make flounces to trim this character's costume. To do this, cut a strip of fabric 100–150 cm long and 10–15 cm wide. If it is lace or knitted fabric whose edges do not fray, then there is no need to trim them. If the fabric is different, in this case it is necessary to hem them.
Now draw two parallel lines with a long ruler. Sew with a thread and a needle, first along one and then along the other markings. Tighten the thread and tie in knots.

The next Pierrot costume for the fairy tale “The Golden Key, or the Adventures of Pinocchio” is also easy to make. A spacious shirt is sewn from white silky fabric with long sleeves. You need to attach a collar to it.

To do this, cut out two large circles of different sizes from transparent fabric. Place the small one on the large one and gather it onto a thread. Top this element with knitted tape. Sew Pierrot's collar onto the neck of his shirt.

Here is the shirt pattern.

The pants are also roomy. You can take the boy's trousers as a basis, increasing the pattern. Make one pant leg white, the other black. An elastic band is inserted into the belt, black circles are sewn onto the light part of the trousers and onto the shirt.

Sew on pompoms as trim. The following photo tip will help you make them.

As you can see, filler is placed in the center of the fabric circle. Then the fabric along the edge is gathered onto a thread, tightened, and secured.

Here's how to make a Pierrot costume.

Crafts based on the fairy tale Golden Key

Get busy interesting creativity together with the children. If you are knitting a cardigan or sweater for a child, add key-shaped trim to the edges of the product or on the cuffs of the sleeves.

Based on the presented diagram, knit with threads of the same color along the cells that are drawn here in black. To make the keys clearly visible, make them from darker yarn, and the background will be light.

The same pattern will come in handy if you embroider. Then make the keys with gold threads and make the background white.

Crafts based on the fairy tale “The Golden Key” using paper are very interesting.

As you can see, first you need to roll the cut out rectangles of paper into a tube and fix this figure in this position with glue.

After this, the facial features of the characters are drawn with a marker. For Pinocchio you need to make a nose and a key from yellow paper. Hair is also cut out of it, and the cap is made of white and red stripes.

Malvina's dress and hair are made of blue colored paper, and the bow is made of pink. Pierrot's costume here is light and complemented with elements made of colored paper. Appropriate sad makeup will complement the image of a lover.

Here are some other masterpieces paper plastic can make. The images of the dolls turn out to be very realistic.

The trimming technique will also allow you to make a wonderful craft based on the fairy tale “The Adventures of Pinocchio.”

To do this, you need to glue small paper trims onto the cardboard base, making the leaves of the water lily from green elements, and the flowers of this plant from white and yellow.
For Pinocchio you will need paper squares of yellow, red, blue, and white.
This craft looks great on blue cardboard. If your base is white, then you first need to paint it with blue paint or glue paper of that color.

Here's a tabletop craft. It can be done by taking:

a box of chocolates, like Rafaella;
cardboard;
paint;
scissors;
stationery knife.

Cut out a key from cardboard and paint it with gold paint. Glue this blank to the bottom of the box. On the top, cut a hole for the lock and decorate it. Using a utility knife, cut out butterflies from cardboard and glue them on.

Don't forget to make the Turtle Tortilla. By the way, if you were asked to make a costume for this character for kindergarten, make a shell from a disposable baking dish. Attach tape and Velcro to it so you can wear it like a backpack.

You can make a shell by taking:

cardboard;
scissors;
remnants of fabric;
green canvas;
green wide braid.

Cut an oval out of cardboard. Same but bigger size need to be cut from green cloth. Place it on a cardboard base and place the remaining fabric between these two layers.

You need to sew dark green ribbons onto the green fabric in advance to get the desired pattern on the shell.

Sew 2 wide ribbons so that you can put on the shell like a backpack.

You can make a Tortilla turtle out of sand, like other characters in this fairy tale, and perform the play right on the beach.

After such fruitful work, it’s time to treat yourself to something tasty. Many years ago, when there was not an abundance of food in stores, the Golden Key dessert made from toffee was popular. It fits perfectly into our theme today, and you can literally prepare it “out of nothing.”

Dessert “Golden Key”

Make this snack with your children, because even the little ones will find the preparation of such a dish simple. For this treat you will need:

500 g toffee “Golden Key”;
180 g sweet corn sticks;
some peanuts;
200 g butter.

Melt the butter with the toffee. Remove the mixture from the heat, add corn sticks and toasted, crushed peanuts (you can make it without them).

Line the mold with baking paper or film and place the mixture here. Place the dessert in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours. When it hardens well, you can cut it with a knife and enjoy the sweet pieces.

That's how much you learned today on the theme of the fairy tale “The Golden Key, or the Adventures of Pinocchio.” You can throw a birthday party using this piece, dress up your guests in themed costumes and cook delicious dishes.

For your children and you to enjoy making crafts and to better understand the plot of the work, watch an interesting cartoon about Pinocchio.

Linden. The wood is soft, light, and quite viscous. Due to the homogeneity of the structure, it is perfectly processed in all directions by hand and on a lathe, and holds its shape well.

Aspen. The wood is soft, light-colored, and not straight-grained, but it is easy to process and bulges when planed. The color of aspen can be pure white or greenish, which is important when making mosaics (marquetry) and inlays (intarsia). It is not afraid of moisture, does not warp or crack.

Alder. The wood is light, soft, moderately drying, exhibits slight warping when drying, can be cut, glued, painted and polished well.

Poplar. The wood is light, soft and dimensional-resistant, can be processed and glued well, and is finished satisfactorily. Low resistance to rotting.

Willow. Heartwood with wide white sapwood, vaguely demarcated from the brownish-pink core. The wood is loose and therefore light, fresh, very soft, and is used for small outbuildings.

Common birch. The wood is of medium density and hardness, uniform in structure, strong, quite tough, easy to cut in all directions, drills, glues, polishes and paints very well. Disadvantages - susceptibility to cracking, warping, severe shrinkage, wormhole damage and rotting.

Karelian birch. By appearance does not differ from ordinary wood, but its wood is completely different: light ocher in color, it is densely “painted” with small dark inclusions, which create a moiré shimmer against the mother-of-pearl background.

Beech. Nuclear-free breed. The wood is white with a yellowish-red tint; annual layers are clearly visible in all sections; the heart-shaped rays are wide and narrow. It is distinguished by high strength, beautiful texture in a radial section, but is poorly resistant to rotting.

Walnut. One of the few breeds with a rich range of colors and tones and a variety of textures. Color - from light brownish-grayish tones to gray-brown, almost black.

Hornbeam. The wood is white with a grayish tint, shiny, heavy, strong, tough, often twisted, difficult to chip, cut, hard to polish, but easy to paint, imitating ebony.

Sycamore. The wood is light and moderately hard, but its heterogeneous structure makes it difficult to process. It is one of the most decorative.

Pear. The wood is dense, strong and hard, practically does not warp or crack, it is well processed, glued, painted and finished. After tinting it imitates ebony.

Maple. The wood is not only dense, strong and hard, but also beautiful. Its structure is thin, and the white heart-shaped rays shine, especially in a longitudinal section. It is difficult, but evenly pricked, well processed, glued, and painted.

If you haven’t watched a cartoon or a fairy tale about Pinocchio with your child, or read this interesting work, then it’s time to do it. Although Pinocchio is already an outdated character, today he has been replaced by all kinds of superheroes and transformers, he remains famous and in demand.

Pinocchio is a wooden boy with a very long, and also curious, nose. In this modeling lesson we will mold it from plasticine so that your child will have an incentive to read a fairy tale again or watch an amazing story on the screen.

To sculpt Pinocchio you need to take:

yellow and orange plasticine;
red and blue plasticine;
matches and stack.

1. Roll a small yellow ball. It is this (or orange) color that will help us imitate the surface of wood coated with varnish on top. And this is exactly what the Pinocchio toy was.

2. Stick a long nose on the ball - now the appearance of the character can be traced. Use the head of a match to mark the eyes.

3. Attach the eyes and red eyebrows.

4. From the same orange plasticine, make curls for long bangs tree boy.

5. Place a cap on your head. To make it, fashion a cone out of a red plate and press down the lower part with your fingers. Then stick thin strips of a contrasting color, such as yellow, onto the cone-cap.

6. Attach the ears.

7. Make the torso. Orange plasticine is suitable for this. Draw out a thin cylinder, add a collar and a row of buttons. Add cone sleeves to the sides.

8. Attach thin yellow tubes to the sleeves.

9. Make shorts from two blue cylinders. Continue the shorts with yellow tubes and attach boots to the lower ends. It’s convenient to assemble all the parts using matches, so place them inside first. Matches will also make the figurine stable.

10. Attach the legs to the T-shirt.

11. And attach the head to the upper part of the body - the collar.

In the famous fairy tale, Papa Carlo made Pinocchio from a piece of log with his own hands, without any magic. Such a craft can be done and modern master applied arts, mastering the basics of wood carving. The most impressive look is a doll made of valuable wood (ebony, boxwood, etc.); in foreign souvenir shops, such a craft can have a four-digit price. But if you are just practicing making wooden Pinocchio, blocks made from inexpensive types of wood - aspen or linden - will do.

Execution of workpieces

The simplest DIY Pinocchio doll consists of the following blank parts, which are made from solid blocks of wood:

head - 1 child;
body - 1 piece;
hand - 3 children. (shoulder, elbow and hand);
leg - 3 children. (thigh, calf, foot).

Smaller parts (axis under the neck, key, nose, hair) can be made from the material remaining after cutting out the main elements.

The easiest way to make doll elements is on a turning and milling machine. Then the parts will turn out smooth, streamlined, similar to factory products. However, if the home craftsman does not have access to such equipment, it’s not scary - all the parts can be cut out with your own hands using a wood chisel knife. Fine abrasive sandpaper is used to grind workpieces.

Fastening workpieces

The movable connection of the parts of a wooden toy provides two types of fastening:

wire;
articulated

Connecting toy elements with wire is the easiest thing to do, but its significant drawback is that it is suitable for small-sized toys. If the craft is more than 30 cm high, such a mount looks makeshift. Some craftsmen use dense metal rings, inserting them into the elements that need to be connected. The ring joint looks neater than the wire one, but the doll's limbs cannot move freely in all directions.

The best option is to make a hinged mount, which has been used by puppeteers for centuries. The components of the hinge are a disk with a hole drilled in the middle and a locking axis that connects the disk to the doll part.

Hinge assembly steps

inserting the disk into the part of the future toy (a hole is cut out several mm wider than the thickness of the disk)
securing the disk using an axis machined from a narrow wooden die;
another axis, smaller in diameter, is inserted into the edge of the disk;
turning a groove strictly along the diameter of the second axis in the element that needs to be attached to our part;
the last stage - the axis in the edge of the hinge disk is driven into the groove.

The hinge of this design is suitable for connecting any composition of a wooden toy - shoulder, elbow, knee. To achieve maximum tight fit of the axes to the doll's elements, limiters made of wood chips are used. Using limiters, you can achieve rotation of the limbs only in one direction, if this is not provided for by the design of the toy.

Working on little things: from the nose to the iris

In order for the doll to turn out “alive,” it requires particularly careful execution. small elements dolls: nose, eyes, fingers, key, hair.

Let's start with the fingers of the hand. To make your hand look natural and not look like one sloppy lump, you need to give volume to the curves of your fingers. It is convenient to perform it using the so-called. Bogorodsk knife, designed specifically for wood carving.

An obligatory element of any wooden Pinocchio, which distinguishes it from the bourgeois Pinocchio, is a golden key. In principle, a metal key from a Soviet-made cabinet will also work as this part, if you have one on the household. But if you want the doll to be made entirely of wood, you will also have to make the key yourself.

The key can be hung either on Pinocchio’s neck, or made so that the doll holds it. In the second case, you need to make a blank not for the brush, but for clenched fist, which is not much more difficult. The round workpiece is hewn, the contours of the fingers are cut out with a knife and chisel. In this case, the key itself must have 2 elements. The first is an axis with a rectangular thickening at the end, which is inserted into a hole drilled in the workpiece. The second is a shaped key base, which is turned from a separate piece of wood. A hole is drilled at its base where we need to insert our axle. The key is ready.

A separate stage of work is the doll’s nose. Its complexity depends on the form of execution of the element. The easiest way is to turn a triangular cone on a lathe - the future nose of our Pinocchio. It is fastened by drilling a shallow hole in the face blank into which the base of the cone is inserted. To keep the nose firmly, the base is fixed with wood glue.

You can also make the nose as a solid element of our doll’s face (it will look more natural if it is slightly curved upward). In this case, you need to take a block of such thickness that it is enough for both the head and the nose, located in the same plane.

The eyes of the wooden Pinocchio are also made of wood using the inlay method. You can simply draw them on the surface, but the toy will not look as solid. First, in the head blank, a “seat” for the eyes is selected and a shape is given. Next, you need to glue a piece of wood into it. light shade than the whole doll - this will be the white of the eye. Then, from a darker piece of wood, an iris is cut out and glued in with scissors, in the center of which you can paint a pupil. Our doll has acquired eyes.

Pinocchio's hair can be made from wood chips remaining during the work process, which are given rectangular shape and bend. Like the nose, the hair is attached to the toy's head blank with wood glue.

The final stage of work is to open the craft with varnish. After it dries, you can dress up the wooden boy in a sewn or crocheted clothes.
