   3. We fold the parts and sew them with a thread with a seam over the edge. The thread can be taken in a contrasting color so that the seam is visible or vice versa in such a shade that the thread is not visible at all. In the process of stitching, we stuff the toy lightly with synthetic winterizer.
   4. When everything is stitched, we attach a loop of tape from above.
   5. Tie a bow around the dog's neck.
   6. Cut out 2 triangles from red felt and sew them together in the shape of a cap. We put the cap on the dog's head and fix it with a couple of stitches. Sew a bead on the tip of the cap.

Do-it-yourself fragrant New Year's toy dog ​​is ready. Such a dog can decorate a Christmas tree, a room or a car and fill the room with a pleasant holiday smell.

Doggy from foamiran

One of the new trends in handmade toys are fofucha dolls. This technique is very simple, using it you can create a dog. She will be in a fluffy skirt in the form of a mischievous girl in carnival costume New Year's dog and with a Santa Claus cap. Such a handmade New Year's toy dog ​​can be put under the Christmas tree instead of the traditional figures of Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden.

The exotic beauties of "Fofucha" came to our Russian reality from distant and hot Brazil. They took root with us very quickly and, obviously, for a long time, as fans of handmade toys were very fond of.

Consider step by step how you can make such a beauty - a New Year's toy - a dog in a carnival costume with your own hands.

For her, we will need:

1. Foamiran flesh or light brown for the body, red and white color- for New Year's cap and dresses of other colors for hair, and shoes.
   2. Wire, it will be the frame for the body.
   3. A large styrofoam ball for the dog's head and 2 small balls for the paws. The diameter of the balls must be selected depending on the size of the dog you need.
   4. Foam cone as the base for the body.
   5. Hot glue.
   6. Iron, in order to heat the foamiran and make it plastic.
   7. Pencil. We will circle the details with them.
   8. Acrylic paints.
   9. A small white pom-pom and a small decorative gift box for decoration.
   10. Scissors. Scissors with a wavy blade can also come in handy in order to cut out pieces of clothing with a beautiful edge.

So, we have prepared everything, we proceed to the manufacture of a New Year's toy of a dog from foamiran with our own hands. First we make the dog's head. This is perhaps the most difficult thing in the process of working on a foamiran toy using the Fofucha technique.

To do this, we take a foam ball of a larger diameter and a piece of solid or light brown foamiran.

We heat the foamiran on a slightly heated iron to such an extent that it becomes a little soft (this is literally a few seconds).

We quickly pull the heated foamiran onto the ball so that it lies without wrinkles on one half of the ball. This will be the muzzle of the dog. You need to pull gently, effortlessly, with smooth movements. If the first time did not work out, you need to heat the material again and try again in those places where it was poorly stretched and smoothed out.

When half of the ball is evenly covered with foamiran, glue it with hot glue along the edges and cut off the unnecessary. It should turn out to be half pasted over with an even smooth layer of foamiran ball.

Now the same with reverse side we make the back of the head from foamiran of a different color, the one chosen for the hairstyle and ears. We do everything in the same way, but we go with the edges slightly on the muzzle from the corporal foamiran. Then a strip of foamiran from which the back of the head was made is glued to the place of the bangs, covering the joint. We cut it neatly into small strips, curls, lightly heat it on an iron and twist it with a pencil.

Then we make ears. To do this, you need to cut out triangles of two sizes and colors and glue the smaller one in front of the larger one. We glue the ears, slightly bending them in a semicircle to the head on the sides. The head is ready.

We insert the wire in place of the neck, fixing it with glue, and from the other end we insert this wire into the cone for the body and also fix it with glue.

We make legs. We take two pieces of wire of the required length and wrap flesh-colored foamiran on them in several turns, leaving a couple of centimeters from each edge for attaching to the body and boots.

We do boots like this. We cut a small ball in half, cut off a little from the ball from each half and glue it in this place. The result was a foot in a boot. As well as the head, we cover the foot with flesh-colored foamiran from above, then we fit the toe with foamiran of the color that is chosen for the shoes. Glue a strip along the perimeter of the foot and glue a thin strip over the foot as a boot fastener. We insert the legs with one end into the shoes, the other into the body and fix it with glue.

We cut the dress according to the cone pattern from red foamiran. Glue it to the body. Cut out the upper paws according to the pattern. We make a sleeve from a piece of foamiran and glue it to the body. In front we connect the handles and a decorative box with a gift. On the bottom of the dress we glue a strip of white foamiran with finely cut edges, imitating the edge.

We make a cap from a cone cut out of red foamiran. We put on the head and glue. Glue a small pom-pom to the end. Lower the tip forward down, glue closer to the muzzle.

Now it remains to draw a muzzle. With black paint we draw the circles of the eyes, the triangle of the nose and the nasolabial arches, forming a smile of the dog from the nose in different directions. We blush the cheeks with powder or blush using a sponge. Let's draw the mustache. We make dots with white paint, forming highlights on the eyes and cheeks.

On the edge of the red dress, you can draw a white snowflake. Cut out several strips from flesh-colored foamiran, fold them and bend in half.

We stick a wire in the middle and fix it on one side, with the other edge we stick it in the body in place of the tail. Fluff up slightly. You can curl the ponytail strips with an iron and a pencil, or leave it that way.

It turned out a funny and unusual New Year's toy dog, made by hand. She will delight the household and bring good luck in the coming year.

Other ideas on how to make a New Year's dog with your own hands:

Good day, Dear friends! 2018 New Year is coming soon. This means that it's time to get ready for the upcoming event with might and main, for example, prepare homemade gifts. Do-it-yourself dog - what could be better as a souvenir for an upcoming event?

Now many have already begun to prepare for the holiday, which I strongly advise you to do as well. In this article you will find many representatives of the canine world of various breeds and from the most different materials.

This post is so detailed that I would be very surprised if you do not find what you are looking for. This year will be special for me, since I was born exactly two Eastern calendar cycles ago, also in the year of the dog. So I'll try not to lose face and collect as much as possible more ideas. There will be warm and soft toys, pillows, crafts, even elements of home comfort.

Do-it-yourself dog: a symbol of the New Year 2018 with photos and master classes

To make a dog yourself with your own hands, you will not need any special skills or hard-to-find materials. Almost everything is clear from the master classes, and sometimes even from the photos themselves. The main thing is to be patient and do something really sensible.

By the way, a dog can be presented not only for the New Year. After all, this creature is the personification of loyalty and devotion, so by presenting it, you seem to want to strengthen the connection with the person to whom you decided to make such a surprise.

dog costume

To create a dog costume, it is not necessary to sew a full-fledged outfit for going out. It is enough for him to acquire, for example, cool mask this furry creature. It can be printed on a color printer or used as a template for cutting out felt.

If you want to make the image complete, then I advise you to take a closer look at the following simple ideas for the holiday. From what and how can you make a cute costume for the New Year for a child and not only?

Look at the girl: she is wearing a fluffy tutu skirt, which is complemented by an openwork top, striped tights and a headband with textile ears. Two cute ponytails will help complete the look. A small nose is drawn on the nose.

It is easy to make a tutu skirt yourself, for this you will need a large number of translucent fabric, which will need to be folded in several layers and gathered at the top with an elastic band.

For a boy, you can adapt a fluffy pajama suit (for example, a Japanese kigurumi) or sew it like her own. For such an outfit, only approximate body parameters (the height of the child and the waist circumference) are useful, so even a not very experienced seamstress can handle the creation.

Want to make things easier? Make a cap with ears, the process of creating which is described below. Take fur, fleece or velor for her. Velsoft will also work if you can handle it (it stretches quite a lot).

Other options for hats can be seen in the following pictures. For example, such a hat can be a good alternative to the previous option. She needs fleece with a long pile.

In the future, a similar hat can be worn on the street as the main headgear. At the same time, for such a hat it will be enough to choose a T-shirt and pants (skirt) in the color of the dog. The image will be almost complete.

Another headdress is sewn according to the same patterns, but the muzzle here is completely different, as well as the ears. Fleece here can be taken with a much shorter pile.

How about a flirty dog ​​hat? Choose some cartoon character and make a catchy addition to your look.

Working process:

1. Cut out a base circle from thick cardboard.
2. Cut out a circle from the fabric, one and a half to two times larger than the base in diameter, pull it together with a “forward needle” seam laid along the edge. Put a solid base inside.
3. By a similar principle, make the top of the cylinder.
4. Side: cut a long strip of thick cardboard and cover it with fabric so that the edges do not stick out. Connect at the back with a hidden seam.
5. Sew or glue the top of the hat to the side to side part tightly attached to the top and formed a cylinder. Attach the design to the bottom base and decorate the hat.

You can attach this to your hair with hairpins or a headband.

You can also sew the ears on the rim, for this you will need the rim itself and ear patterns. The first option is more complicated, it implies that the inner part will be somewhat smaller than the outer one. To create it is best to use fur or fleece.

But the ears are simpler.

To look believable, take regular gloves in the color you want and some felt. Cut out the details of future paws from felt and attach them with a thin layer of glue or thread. You can make such gloves in just 10-20 minutes!

Crafts from improvised materials and not only

We got the costume, but what about crafts with the Earthy Yellow Dog? We will make them ourselves different ways. Paper postcards and souvenirs, even matchboxes - all this will be used and will please with its unusual appearance.

Paper fantasies: postcards and origami

From cardboard and paper, you can make postcards and original origami. How do you like this cartoon dog? It can be printed and circled to create your own original postcard. Congratulations can be written both on the card itself, and attached to the inside of the text part as a separate layer.

The second option with a simpler form looks no less original. And if you try, then such a dog can also be made with a surprise: if you pull the tongue, the ears will open.

Try to transfer this doggy to felt. So it will last much longer than the paper version and it can be used even after the New Year.

The next dog can be used as a bookmark for books, which will certainly come in handy on the farm. Make it from a regular square of paper.

From such paper dogs, you can create a Christmas tree garland that will remind you of the symbol of the year.

But as follows, you can fold napkins on holiday table. This form is quite stable, but at the same time does not take much time to assemble. Fans of Scotch Terriers will especially appreciate it.

The latest in this series is a very cute and inventive dog: it is made from a matchbox, and a heartfelt message is left inside. A series of such boxes will make all your relatives and friends happier. If you cover the boxes with a special varnish for paper, then even snow and rain will not be terrible for such a gift (although you should not wash it anyway).

wooden doggies

Warm material, which is the best suited for meeting the upcoming New Year. Make a plywood key holder or some kind of hanger for dog things. Woodworking skills, dog carving templates and acrylic paints with a specialized wood varnish will come in handy.

As children, many of us made plywood toys. This hobby can be turned into something more by making a full-fledged home sculpture.

And here is a completely childish way to prepare for the holiday: a dog with movable legs, which can be made from cardboard or plywood.

Christmas toys

In fact, you can hang almost anything on a Christmas tree. For example, I decorate a green tree with small soft toys Purchased and made by myself. Try to sew the dogs you see below. They can literally be reduced from the photo and get ready-made patterns.

A great way to surprise friends and family will be hand-painted Christmas tree balls. To do this, buy plain round balls and acrylic paints.

We use polymer clay and plasticine

Many children really like to create figures from plasticine, dough or polymer clay (by the way, you can do both using the presented MK). But it develops fine motor skills and in many ways it has a very positive effect on the child's psyche. Therefore, when preparing for the New Year, we will take into account this important factor and blind some cute dogs.

The production of such figures is generally the same, but has some differences. If you are good at modeling techniques, then you can immediately proceed to something like the dog below.

If you still consider yourself a beginner, then start with simpler forms that can be repeated right behind the photo, as in the picture below. Very cute pit bull turned out)

Pug is also not inferior to his brother. Thanks to its simplest form, even very young children can do it.

With the next three step by step master classes you will create several dogs of completely different breeds. All of them can be done with children.

A souvenir can either be close to real-life dogs or have the appearance of a cartoon character (in the second case, it may turn out to be even more interesting).

How to sew a dog out of fabric: cute patterns

Stitched dogs will be popular not only on the eve of new year holidays, but also in the future.

Stuffed Toys

A fabric dog can be sewn in a variety of ways. How do you like the dog below? It is more like a hyena, but due to the similarity with the desired character, it looks very attractive.

You will definitely like the avant-garde pattern characters that you can see below. They have very big heads and small bodies, thanks to which these dogs look childishly clumsy and naive. The effect is achieved with a very wide insert in the head and rather modest side parts.

The classic dog in the next variant is made from faux fur and stands on 4 legs, unlike most of the previously mentioned dogs. On New Year's Eve, she can sew a Christmas red cap and a scarf.

In our selection there is a place even for author's dolls-toys with author's patterns. Just look at this adorable basset! The author (Alisa Shangina) even came up with a description for it: "The world is beautiful, like a basset." The nose of the dog is felted from dry wool, but it can also be cut out separately, highlighting the corresponding part on the pattern of the muzzle.

If you do not like the soul in Dalmatians, then you will definitely like the next idea for a New Year's surprise. Patterns of a fairly high level, but the result is simply gorgeous. Stock up on white fleece, white and black thread and beads for the eyes. Don't forget the black marker.

To sew such a dog better with hands, because you just have to be a virtuoso sewing machine to grind the details of such a dog well.

A tilde dog can be made according to the following patterns. For her, take a thin cotton fabric. The character will suit a dress, trousers - whatever you want.

A square-headed dog can be made even without ready-made patterns(create them yourself), if you look closely at its structure.

If you have a few pieces of leather in stock, then create a small dog out of them.

Let's go socks

Socks are good because they exist here huge selection colors even in small stores (as opposed to the same fabrics). So feel free to go to the store for a new pair of socks and create adorable babies.

Both versions of New Year's dogs are sewn according to the same principle, but the result is completely different. The first dog is very bright and cheerful, while the second is restrained and concise, it can be presented even to a serious man.

And what can be done from nylon tights! A pair of pugs for inspiration from Lyudmila Tkachenko. They are made by the method of tightening and further coloring.

We create from felt

Pugs are incredibly charming representatives of the canine kingdom. To make such a doggie, you will need several colors of thick felt and thread in the color of the fabric. Then this symbol of the year can be turned not only into a keychain, but also into a brooch, a magnet, or simply left as a soft souvenir. Please note: clothes are sewn over an already finished body.

The Scottish Terrier breed inspires designers and creatives to create a wide variety of crafts with it. Below it is proposed to make a puppy and an adult version of this wonderful dog.

Continuing the series of flat felt toys, it is impossible to pass by this dog. It is sewn a little more complicated than the previous options.

Well, how to get past this charming boule? Try to make it too.

Chihuahua fridge magnet can also be made from felt. Threads are not needed here - just stock up on transparent glue and scissors.

Pillows with dogs

Decorative pillows can not only lie on sofas. This dachshund, for example, props up the door and protects from drafts. You can sew it according to the indicated patterns, increasing the animal to the right sizes and stretching it in the center. The body can also be made up of many patches.

Two dachshund girlfriends are good for daytime relaxation, and at the same time as a hug toy for a child.

Do you want more ideas? On the next selection, there are more than enough of them! It is easy and quick to sew them, but each one can be presented for the New Year and not only. Use them in the car or at home.

Other gifts with the symbol of the year

If you want to surprise your loved ones not only with original toys and key chains, then you can make a set of potholders for them. Decorate them as your fantasy tells.

When creating a souvenir, you can also take into account your favorite breed, to which the gifted one gravitates.

Dogs made of wool

They can be felted from dry wool, and fasteners for a brooch or magnet can be glued or sewn on the back.

Threads and pom-poms
