How to make a small Shrovetide doll with your own hands. Maslenitsa doll from bast

In Rus', two types of dolls were made on Maslenitsa. A man-sized effigy of Maslenitsa was necessarily burned, symbolizing the transition from one season to another, and the Home Maslenitsa was at home until the next year and was considered a strong amulet of the home, fulfilling the precepts of the owners of the house. They kept the doll in a red corner or at the entrance to the dwelling.

Previously, for any holiday in the family, they made a doll into which a particle of the soul was invested. It was a ritual doll, a talisman, a guardian. As a rule, the most protective were dolls made without a needle and scissors. When making dolls, they tried not to cut the fabric, but to tear it (sometimes the dolls were called that - "rvanki").

A ritual doll is not a toy. The face usually remained white. The meaning of this is much deeper - a doll without a face was considered inaccessible to infuse evil forces into it.
The hands of the doll symbolize the appeal to the sun, and the skirt assembled in a special way symbolizes the solstice. The amulet is made for a year, at the next holiday it is burned or floated on the water.

According to legend, Maslenitsa was the daughter of Santa Claus and lived in the North. The fragile girl Shrovetide met a man. He saw her hiding behind huge snowdrifts and asked her to help people tired of the long winter - to warm and cheer them up. Maslenitsa agreed and, turning into a healthy, ruddy woman, with laughter, dancing and pancakes, she made the human race forget about the winter storm.

"Home Maslenitsa"- this is a protective Tula doll. Such a doll protects the home and fulfills the covenants of the owners. The doll was made on the eve of the Maslenitsa celebration, and it was kept in the house for a whole year. She lived in the "red corner" or at the entrance to the upper room. "Home Shrovetide" met the bride and groom. When the mother-in-law was waiting for the young for pancakes, she put this doll out the window or on the porch railing. "Maslenitsa" is a protective chrysalis, so red threads are used in its manufacture. The fabric was not cut, but torn off by hand. In the manufacture of "Maslenitsa" straw or bast is used, personifying the violent power of vegetation. The clothes of the doll are bright, with floral ornaments.

Traditional stages of its production:

1. We make the head of the chrysalis. Take a square piece of fabric. Roll a ball out of a piece of cotton.

2. We cover the cotton ball with a cloth, put it on a stick and tie it with a thread. In the manufacture of protective dolls, we wrap the thread twice, and then tighten it onto a knot.

3. We tie a bunch of bast to the stick.

4. For hands, take a bunch of bast and tie it on both sides with a thread.

5. We wrap hands from a bast with a cloth.

6. We bandage our hands on both sides with a thread.

7. We tie our hands with a thread cross - crosswise to the body of the "Shrovetide".

8. We make the chest of our "Shrovetide". To do this, take a square piece of fabric. Roll up a ball of cotton.

9. We cover the lump of cotton with a cloth and tie it with a thread. We also make the second breast.

10. We tie the chest crosswise to the body of the Shrovetide.

11. We tie a skirt.

2. Shirt. For a shirt, take a rectangular piece of fabric. We make a hole for the head and a small incision in front so that the head of the pupa passes. We put on a shirt for Shrovetide.

13. Tie a shirt under the bust with a thread.

14. We take three bright strips of fabric and weave a braid.

5. We wrap the ends of the braid, fasten it with a thread.

16. We lay the braid around the head of the "Maslenitsa". We tie a scarf.

7. We tie the apron. We tie a belt.

18. Each relative in the family can give Maslenitsa a task for a year. To do this, we tie ribbons on the handles of the doll.

In some areas they made "Home Shrovetide" with the "Star of Lada".

This “Home Shrovetide” holds the star of the Goddess Lada in her hands, a Slavic amulet that protects the atmosphere of love and peace in the family that created it.

In the old days, it was customary in the villages to make Maslenitsa together, by the whole world, using, in addition to wood and straw, also old unnecessary things that they wanted to get rid of.

Didali Maslenitsa on Monday, preparing for the week-long carnival fun. In some regions (Tula, Vladimir, Tver) they also made small home Maslenitsa.

Presentation on the topic: Home doll Maslenitsa

Shrovetide will come to us very soon, so we have prepared for you do-it-yourself collection of ideas and crafts for Maslenitsa!

Shrovetide is an ancient holiday in Rus', which was celebrated 7 days before the equinox and 7 days after. It was on this holiday that pancakes were baked in honor of the worship of the Sun, which gives all life on earth. On the last day of the week, on Forgiveness Sunday, a human-sized straw doll was made on a holiday, she was escorted with songs and dances, and then burned at the stake, it was believed that by doing so she would take everything bad with her and give place to a new life, full of strength and of good. The homemade Shrovetide doll was made in a smaller size and kept at home as a talisman for a year.

Master class number 7. DIY scarecrow

In this master class we will tell you how to make stuffed Maslenitsa do-it-yourself. Shrovetide is one of the most ancient and fun holidays. Its history is connected with the pagan Slavic gods, who were worshiped, asked for their protection, good harvests and sacrificed to them. The tradition of saying goodbye to winter and joyfully meeting spring has been preserved for many centuries in a row. One of the ritual actions is the burning of an effigy - the personification of winter. This doll, made of hay and straw, should be both funny and scary at the same time. Perhaps in order not to cause regret during the burning of an effigy. But, at the same time, it should be bright and attract attention, since the bonfire with Shrove Tuesday is the culmination of the holiday.

have been made by hand since ancient times. It should be based on hay and straw, as well as linen and cotton fabrics. But in the conditions of the city, at the end of winter, it is very difficult to find both hay and straw if they are not prepared in advance. Therefore, we will make the scarecrow proposed for manufacturing using papier-mâché arts and crafts and stuff it with familiar recycled materials.

Necessary materials:

Newspapers or unnecessary paper;

PVA glue;

Paper tape;

Yellow paper napkins or paints (gouache, acrylic, aerosol);

colored paper;

multi-colored ribbons;

Two long wooden sticks;

Unwanted clothes.

work description.

At the first stage of work, we will make a head for a scarecrow. We will do it using the papier-mâché technique.

From the newspaper we form a large lump. Its dimensions should be commensurate with the dimensions of the scarecrow that you want to make. In creating a doll, you can focus on human height and volume.

In order for the newspaper to be in a tight lump and not bloom, it must be fixed with tape. It is best to use paper tape.

From A4 paper, we form five bags. They also need to be fixed with tape or a stapler. We tightly stuff the bags with newspaper and glue them to the newspaper ball. In this case, we again need paper tape. The base is ready.

Now we glue the entire structure with strips of paper using PVA glue, creating an even coating.

Paste the head of Maslenitsa with yellow paper napkins on top.

You can do this with white napkins or toilet paper, but when the glue dries, the entire surface of the head will need to be painted with yellow paint. You can use gouache, acrylic paint or spray paint from a spray can.

From two sheets of paper we form lumps and glue them with paper napkins. When the glue is dry, paint the eyes blue. We place the eyes on the prepared base for the head of the stuffed animal.

From yellow napkins moistened with PVA glue, we form a triangular nose. From red paper we twist a long sausage in the form of a mouth. We also glue them, creating the face of the future stuffed animal.

We continue to apply makeup to our scarecrow. From black paper, cut out two small circles for the pupils. And on top of them we glue two small circles of white color in order to give shine to the eyes of our charming Maslenitsa.

Black paper is useful for making eyelashes and eyebrows. For eyelashes, you will need rectangles that need to be cut in small strips not reaching the edge by 1 cm. Then, using scissors, we bend the eyelashes and glue them around the eye. Eyebrows are placed above the eyes.

Add red circles as rosy cheeks. Well, here is the beauty.

Now let's decorate it. Let's do it with multi-colored ribbons. Cut them into strips about 20 cm long.

We collect strips of ribbons of different colors in a bundle and tie in the middle with a thin ribbon.

With the help of nail scissors, we make a hole in one of the rays of our stuffed animal and thread the tip of the ribbon into it, which holds the bundle. Tie tightly. We repeat this procedure with each ray.

The head is ready, so let's move on to the next step - the formation of the body.

At the heart of the design of the carnival effigy will be a cross made of two wooden sticks.

We put a garbage bag on the bottom of the stick, making a small hole in it. We stuff this bag tightly with newspapers or paper. Tie tightly at the neck.

We put on a white shirt on sticks. We fasten it and tie it from below. We stuff the sleeves with newspapers and fix them with ribbons.

As a dress, we use a bright fabric sewn with a pipe. We fix the dress on the shoulders and tie it with a belt. Below, under the dress, to add volume, you can also place a garbage bag stuffed with paper. In addition, the stuffed animal will burn a little longer.

We put on the head, tie a scarf. Scarecrow is ready! It remains only to burn it!

what else you can make you will learn from our master class, which you will find on this site.
