To give a beautiful toy to a child, it is not necessary to go to the store for it, you can make it from what is at hand. Play out the Cinderella fairy tale at home by making dolls, a carriage from cardboard or candy. See how to make paper but sturdy.
How to make a carriage?
Make one so that it has a touch of antiquity. To do this, take:
- printing and ordinary cardboard;
- flat and rounded wooden sticks;
- glue "Moment Crystal";
- acrylic lacquer;
- pins;
- gold brown acrylic paint;
- beads with hats;
- transparent plastic;
- scissors;
- a candle;
- knife.
If you do not have polygraphic cardboard, use regular cardboard, but use a dense one. From it you need to cut one sidewall for each side, which will be solid, the second consists of three parts - two windows and a door. Cut out two pieces for the bottom.
Place these two sheets of cardboard next to each other, glue them on top and bottom along a small rectangle made of the same material.
Paint the outside details. If you want the carriage to have an aged look, then use gold and brown acrylic paint. After it is completely dry, glue the elements of the crew. On each window, stick a piece of transparent rectangular plastic, which is 5 mm larger than these gaps. Attach them between the outside and inside of the cardboard sides.
Connect the sides of the carriage by gluing the rectangular cardboard blanks that you cut out before. When the glue is dry, paint the sides with gold acrylic paint.
While it dries, see how to make the carriage further. We will make wheels for her. Each consists of two identical round pieces, cut them out of cardboard using a pair of compasses or suitable round objects. To make the wheel axles, cut out small circles, stick 8 wooden sticks evenly on them. At the edges, put 1 and 2 sides of your wheel blanks on them, glue those. To make these parts even, use glue to attach pieces of rope between adjacent axes.
From wooden sticks of a larger size and diameter, which also need to be pre-painted brown, assemble the base for the wheel system. Sharpen two parallel ends. To better secure these elements, make a hole with a small drill at the places where they join. Lubricate the wood spike with glue, paste here.
Put the wheels in place, fasten the axles outside with glue beads.
Paint the assembled structure while the mortar dries, paint on the carriage as well.
To age the carriage, before applying the last coat of paint, walk over some places with a candle, then apply brown acrylic paint. After 2 hours, after the paint has dried, take a sponge or fine sandpaper, rub the carriage where you smeared it with a candle. You will get an aging effect. But you need to rub only to the previous gold layer, be careful not to inadvertently remove it.
After you have admired how wonderful the carriage turns out, you can and should arrange it inside. Make a bench out of strips of cardboard, folding them, as in the photo, glue the drapery in red.
In the center, attach a small rectangle of fabric that will become a rug. To make rollers on a sofa, cut out rectangles of the same size from soft red fabric and cardboard, stick one on top of the other. Roll this blank into a tube, glue on the side. Determine the size of the resulting holes, cut a circle out of cardboard along it, cover it with a cloth, glue such round parts on both sides of the roller.
This carriage does not open, so you need to make the roof removable so that the child can put a toy princess, a prince or his other little dolls here. Make the cover 2 cm wider on all sides than the hole in the carriage ceiling. Cut out the decorations in the form of monograms, glue them to the lid, and paint the whole thing with acrylic paint.
The photo clearly demonstrates what the carriage will turn out. If you wish, you can make a bench for the coachman, covering it with the same red fabric as the sofa for the passengers.
DIY candy crafts for beginners
The next carriage, which is even easier to manufacture than the first, belongs to this category.
To do this, you need the following candies:
- 80 pcs. - "Golden Reseda";
- 66 Item (s) - "Golden Lily";
- 4 things. - "Autumn Waltz";
- 18 pieces - "Vanilla Masik";
- 3 pieces - "Roshen".
You will also need:
- thick cardboard for office equipment;
- wooden skewers;
- scissors;
- corrugated paper;
- gold paint;
- golden glue.
To make the base of the carriage, cut a circle out of cardboard, divide it into 6 triangles, bend the sidewalls, if necessary, cut them a little, and then glue them. Make the same shape, only of a larger size, from corrugated paper.
Runners 37 cm long, so that they are more durable, cut out 2 parts that need to be glued in pairs.
Cut 6 strips of cardboard 3 cm wide, on one side, glue them to the base of the carriage (to the edges of the triangles), on the other, connect them at the top, covering everything with a circle of cardboard. To make these elements stronger, you can make each part of two identical ones by gluing them in pairs.
Also make wheels and axles from double thick cardboard. Glue three wooden skewers together, cut off the excess so that the length of such parts is 13 cm. Make holes in the middle of the wheels, attach the pre-painted skewers here with golden glue. Glue candies on the wheels.
Connect the side parts of the carriage together with wooden skewers.
Cover the carriage itself with sweets.
Fasten it between the runners and you can send Cinderella to the ball.
But for this you need to make it yourself.
How to make Cinderella?
We will create the heroine in a very interesting technique. This is a shape-shifting doll. When necessary, she will be Cinderella, and at other times - a princess. To do this, her skirt must be straightened in one direction or the other. At this time, a second doll will be hiding under it.
This is what Cinderella and the princess will be like.
You will need the following materials and equipment:
- acrylic yarn in various colors;
- holofiber filler;
- circular knitting needles 4 and 3 mm;

Cast on 40 stitches using red yarn.
To make it easier to sew the workpiece later, when you set the loops, leave a long tail of yarn, fold it several times, tie it in the center so that it does not get in the way.
- We knit from the waist to the top. After a set of stitches in stocking knit, make 12 rows, recall that when performing this pattern, make front stitches in all front rows, and purl stitches in purl stitches.
- Now attach a white thread, knit according to the scheme: 6 l.; 2 persons together - execute this fragment 5 times; 8 l.; 2 persons together - do this fragment 5 times, 6 p. This, after knitting this row, 13 loops should remain on the needles. Next, knit 5 rows in stocking.
- The next piece is made up of flesh-colored yarn, so join this thread. We perform the 19th row with it, white facial, 20th purl.
- To take Cinderella further, move from the shoulders to her head. For this, 21 rows are made according to the scheme: 1 sheet, 2 loops from one front. As a result of this set, by the end of the row, you should have 45 loops on the spoke.

- 47th - knit every two loops with the front ones together, as a result, at the end of the row you will have only 15 loops.
- We thread here a thread of the same flesh color using a needle with a thick eye. To do this, we use a cut, but not completely, thread of this knitting. Tighten it, secure by tying the ends. Here's what happens at this stage.
This is the preparation of the head, shoulders, waist of Cinderella before the transformation. Now let's create the image of a girl when she has already become a princess.
Knit using the same technology, only first cast on 45 loops using blue threads, then knit with body yarn.
To make the Princess Cinderella doll volume, sew the halves of the girls along the edge loops, placing this seam at the back. Turn the blanks from the wrong side to the front side, fill with filler. In this case, the head will turn out to be about 21 cm in diameter. Connect the girls at the waist, sew them in this place. Add filler here to get about 20cm around the waist.
Separate the head from the neck, stitching here with a flesh-colored thread, and tighten it.
Using pins, mark the location of the eyes, one from the other will be at a distance of 4 loops, from the top of 11 rows. Embroider them with black thread, mark the location of the mouth with a pin. In Cinderella, he can be a little sad, in the princess, smiling. Sew it with red thread.
- In order for Cinderella to find a dress, you need to knit a skirt for her, under which the princess will hide for a while. We begin to make this piece of clothing from the bottom. To do this, cast on 129 loops with white yarn, knit 7 rows with hosiery.
- In the 8th row, knit either 1 liter, then the combination "yarn over 2 liters. together". Ninth - knit all loops, purl ten.

- In the 65th, we begin to subtract for the waist, for this knit one l., Then 2 l together. At the end of the row, you have 86 stitches left.
- In the 66th, do all of them with the purl, in the 67th, lower them again, knitting 2 loops together with the front ones. At the end of this row, you should have 43 stitches left.
Sew the fabric along the edge loops, tuck the skirt at the bottom so that beautiful teeth form in this place. Turn it out there. Also, using yarn of different colors, make patches for the skirt, sew them to it.
The belt consists of 44 loops, is made with black threads in the front satin stitch. Sew the belt to the skirt. Here's how to make Cinderella.
We need to create a princess too. Knit using the same technique, but using different colors. 129 loops are typed with white yarn, then you will knit with a blue thread from the 11th row, from 15 white, from 19 blue, from 29th white.
To make flowers for the princess, let's start with the first one. Cast on 14 stitches with pink thread. Perform the first row with the front ones, in the next you need to knit 2 purl loops. Pass a thread through the remaining loops, pull it off, and tie it. Sew hem loops, sew flowers to the skirt, and sew it to the princess figurine.

- Tie the third with purl. For row 25, perform all rows in stocking knitting. In the 26th, change the thread to red. Follow this row according to the scheme: 1 l., 2 together l., Here you should have 16 loops at the end of the row.
- We perform rows 27 and 28 with the front ones, then we close all of them.
- Sew the sleeves and arms along the edge loops, turn the work over to your face, sew the inlaid edge. Fill these blanks with holofiber. Insert your arms into the sleeves so that the width of the junction is 4 loops.
When aligning the arms and sleeves, make sure that their seams are one after the other, on the same side. Sew these blanks. Sew your arms to the armhole. Let's take care of the girls' hairstyles.
- Cinderella has a hat in the shape of hair and two braids. Cast on 56 stitches using brown thread. The first row is knitted, alternating, 1 liter. from 1 out. Next, complete 17 rows using a scarf pattern.
- At the top of the head, you need to subtract, for this knit according to the scheme: 2 l., 2 l together. Create the next 7 rows with a scarf pattern. In the 27th, we decrease again, knitting according to the scheme: 1 l., 2 together l., So that at the end of this row you have 28 loops.
- The next five rows are made with a scarf pattern. In 33rd, knit all the loops according to the scheme: 2 together l.

To make the princess's hairstyle, dial 12 loops with white yarn, knit 10 liters in the first row, turn the work, do the second row 8 liters, turn again, make the third and fourth rows knit. Repeat this combination of four rows 12 times, then close all the loops, sew the edge. Fill the blank with holofiber, pin it on the top of the head with pins.
At the back of the head, the hairstyle must be separated with a twisted cord. To do this, take green yarn, measure out two pieces of 120 cm each. Tie their ends, attach to the doorknob, twist clockwise. Fold them in half again in the middle, sew to the princess's white hairstyle, forming a bow at the back.
Make four identical curls, let's see how they are created, using one as an example. Cast on 7 loops with white thread, sew 11 rows with garter stitch. Gather on a thread, pull tight, twist into a tight roll. Do the other three curls like this. Sew on 2 pieces on both sides of the main hairstyle.
