DIY crafts for February 23. Origami shirt

To make a paper shirt you will need rectangular sheet of paper any color.

* You can try to fold an origami shirt first, using a regular sheet. Thus, you will learn where and how you can avoid mistakes when making a direct gift.

1. First you need to fold the rectangle in half, but along and not across. Next, you need to unfold and bend the edges of the paper to the middle (see picture).




3. Prepare your sheet face down again. Once again, fold the corners to the fold lines you just made. This time you do not need to unbend these small corners.



4. Now fold the top of the sheet with the folded corners in the part of the paper where the edge of the sheet intersects with the fold lines of the corners.



5. The next thing to do is to fold two ribs towards the middle of your paper shirt and make the sleeves (see picture) while holding the ribs with a finger of one hand.



6. You have made the sleeves and now it's time to move on to the collar. You may have already guessed that the collar needs to be started from the other end of the folded rectangle. To do this, fold the bottom edge of the sheet so that the collar is about 2 times shorter than the sleeve.



7. Turn over the folded sheet and make the corners of the collar.







8. Finally, fold the resulting sheet so as to align the edge with the sleeves and collar. Straighten the corners of the collar and use glue to secure them.

A postcard is a great gift for the Defenders of the Fatherland Day. In this article you will find a selection of templates and detailed tutorials on making beautiful and original congratulations for dad, grandfather or boy. Some of them just need to be cut and glued, others need to be drawn, and others need to be folded and decorated.

We have collected postcards for you that will be appreciated by both the military and those who have served for a long time or did not even serve at all. In a word, any man will be very pleased to receive such a congratulation. Making postcards for February 23 with your own hands is very simple, so even children can handle this task.

Postcard from pasta for dad

Let's start with a master class for children - a great option for elementary school or kindergarten. We offer several options for postcards from pasta and cereals. These postcards are good because they do not need to be drawn for too long, and therefore even the smallest children can handle them. Any dad will be happy to receive such a fun homemade card for February 23rd.

We will need:

  • white or colored cardboard;
  • colored or decorative paper;
  • glue or plasticine;
  • cereals (buckwheat, rice, peas) or pasta of any shape;
  • paints (gouache, watercolor or any other).

If the child is small, help him make a drawing and use plasticine to attach the cereal to the cardboard. If he already knows how to make some paper crafts and work with glue, it is preferable to use glue.

Fold the cardboard in half or cut out a rectangle to decorate. If you are working with pasta, you need to paint them immediately, if you are working with other cereals, you can paint them later. How to work with some types of cereals, you can read in our article.

A simple decor in this case will be enough. Cut out two rectangles: one from newspaper, the second from paper, make a mustache and a bow tie from pasta.

Add congratulations. If a child knows how to draw, a postcard for February 23 can be made very interesting. For example, dad can be presented with a ship filled with cereals.

First, a drawing is applied, and then it is filled with grits. Add colors, write nice words.

Craft for the little ones - the word "PAPA" and the number "23". Write the word on the cardboard in large letters and roll up plasticine sausages. To fill it, decorate with peas or buckwheat.

Help your child make an airplane (this is a very useful and exciting activity for children). Color it in, write "From February 23!" and paste it on a postcard.

All the presented examples of homemade postcards can be changed and supplemented with any thematic decor in the form of stars, planes, tanks, etc.

Postcard in quilling technique

This is a very beautiful way to make a custom postcard for February 23 with your own hands. Any man will appreciate the effort you put into her. A quilling card is one of the best options to congratulate your beloved man, dad or grandfather. Stylish, original and tasteful.

We will need:

  • several strips of colored paper;
  • cardboard for the base;
  • transparent glue;
  • white cardboard;

If you don't have a special quilling needle, you can make your own. To do this, take an ordinary sewing needle with a large eye and bite off its tip with scissors. Insert the game with a sharp end into any wooden base.

The postcard begins with the preparation of a drawing and details for quilling. Cut the paper into strips no wider than 0.5 centimeters or less. Twist the parts with a needle, simply by passing it along the strip. Form shapes with your fingers. We have already told you how to twist parts using the quilling technique.

We draw the desired image on the cardboard: the inscription "February 23", a tank, an airplane, etc. We spread it with cardboard strips, gluing them on the edge with transparent glue. While they do not hold very firmly, but when filled, they will stand up “tightly”.

We fill the space with twisted details.

An excellent postcard in the "military" style will turn out in the form of a tank.

You can put the numbers one after the other.

Whatever you choose, attach the elements with transparent glue. Add congratulations - and the card is ready for February 23!

Postcard-shirt or military uniform

We offer step-by-step instructions, having mastered which you will learn how to fold a postcard in the form of a jacket and a shirt with a tie or a military uniform. Choose the first option if your man is far from the army, and the second, if vice versa. Such a card can also be offered to a child as a craft for dad.

We will need:

  • white cardboard;
  • colored cardboard;
  • satin ribbons;
  • buttons and beads;
  • any decor;
  • Super glue;
  • needle with thread.

Choose the color of paper according to what and for whom the postcard will be. If you want to make an imitation of a military uniform, take dark green paper or khaki cardboard, otherwise use cardboard of any color.

We cut out a “shirt” from white cardboard in the form of a rectangle. Then cut out the collar. The colored cardboard blank should be 2.5 times larger.

We place the “shirt” in the center and make bends in the form of a smell of a uniform. Bend the top corners to make a collar. The shirt also needs to be folded over to form a collar.

We put a ribbon in the center of the shirt - this will be our tie. To make a knot for it, we will use a bead. It's better to sew it on. We fix the tie with glue.

Glue a small piece of tape to a narrow white cardboard strip - this is a pocket and a future handkerchief. We will glue it and drape it.

Inside the shirt we write a holiday greeting for the Defender of the Fatherland Day. We supplement the jacket with buttons or stars, if it is a uniform. We glue the pocket, we make the rim with a felt-tip pen.

In the assembled form, congratulations are not visible on the postcard. If necessary, you can write additional wishes on the inside of the uniform. For example, many put poems on a gift that can be read with a full turn of the jacket. Any man will be pleased to receive such a homemade postcard for the holiday: you can immediately see how much soul has been invested in it.

Postcard with a voluminous boat

This simple card can be made by a child for dad. However, even crafts for a husband in this style would be appropriate. It will be a great addition to any gift for Defender of the Fatherland Day.

We will need:

  • blue cardboard;
  • White paper;
  • glue stick;
  • red and blue markers.

Blue cardboard is an imitation of the sea. To make the postcard more interesting, we will put it: bend it in half and make two folds inward so that it stands. You can lay an additional lining on the bottom to make the structure more stable.

We make a boat out of paper. Detailed instructions on how to do this can be found in our article on simple origami techniques.

Glue the boat to the cardboard. Add waves from paper.

We cut out a rectangle for the flag and several seagulls from white paper. With felt-tip pens we tint the flag and the boat itself.

Postcard for February 23 is ready! Congratulations can be written on the other side of the craft. And inside the card you can put a small gift or something tasty.

Volumetric postcard with an airplane

Another way to congratulate dad on February 23 is a voluminous postcard with an airplane. It is all made of paper and glued quite simply. A child from elementary school will cope with this master class on their own, but children from kindergarten will need a little help here.

We will need:

  • blue cardboard;
  • white paper;
  • blue paper;
  • paper of any bright color;
  • glue stick.

Cut out some clouds from white paper. We make a circle from blue paper, and then cut it out in a spiral 0.5 centimeters thick.

Draw an airplane on colored paper. Separately, we make the wings, glue them. We glue the clouds completely, the spiral is behind the center, we glue the plane to the center.

Fold the card in half. Congratulations can be written between the glued elements.

Such a voluminous postcard will appeal not only to dads and grandfathers, but also to boys. This is a great idea for congratulating classmates.

Bonus: video tutorial

This is a very simple voluminous postcard for February 23, which you can do with your own hands in just 5-10 minutes. Such a congratulation looks original and very beautiful. Take a look at the short video tutorial and get down to business - you definitely can't go wrong.
