A very interesting idea is to lay out only a luxurious rooster tail from quilling paper. It's not as confusing as laying out a whole cockerel, and it can turn out very effectively! Here is a rooster without a tail as a basis (how it looked in the original, see the photo below).

Print it on a color printer, and fantasize over the tail later. As an example - one such work (although the tail is modest here, but you will try, right?))

Easter egg wreath

Don't throw away your egg carton - it will come in handy to make a very beautiful flower wreath for Easter!

You will need a ring cut out of a flat piece of cardboard to serve as the base for the wreath. We cut off the cells from the packaging from under the eggs, form flowers from them and give the petals a variety of shapes. It is good to make some flowers double or even triple by putting flowers of different sizes into each other.

Now we color the resulting flowers in bright colors. They can be not only plain, but also with overflows and specks.

We paint the base in the color of greenery and, after drying, attach the flowers to the wreath with PVA glue.

In the middle of the wreath, you can hang an egg cut out of cardboard on a ribbon.

Now the sheet needs to be folded in half and carefully cut out the details to get symmetrical stems and leaves.

You don't need a template to cut flowers - you can use a regular glass. We cut out circles from paper of different colors, fold it four times and make cuts to make petals. Don't forget to stick a contrasting center.

Now we glue the flowers to the petals and get the finished links of the garland chain. We begin to dock them with each other, adding leaves at the junctions.

Ready-made garlands can be hung around the room - the festive mood at home is guaranteed!

Another version of the liana flower garland is made even simpler, kids can easily handle it.

As a basis, simple strips of green paper are taken. At one end, they are fixed to a painted cardboard roller (a paper towel roller will do). At the same distance, simple five-petal flowers are glued to the ribbons.

Ready-made garlands are hung on strings and become beautiful spring decoration groups in kindergarten.

Easter crafts from plastic spoons

Very original crafts for Easter, you can do it with ordinary plastic spoons.

Using a cotton pad, paper and a plastic spoon, you can make such a funny cockerel that will decorate a flower pot.

By wrapping the spoon in colored paper, we get a cheerful yellow chicken.

So that the paper does not slip, the spoon must be coated with glue.

Using only the top of the spoon, which is shaped like an egg, you can make a whole Easter wreath with bright multi-colored eggs. And you can place the eggs in the konzinka easy in the nest.

Chickens in the nest

From the video from toilet paper and a piece of cardboard will make a cute and funny chicken. Step-by-step instruction production is shown in the photo below.

Paper plate chickens

You can make cute naive chickens out of disposable paper plates with scissors and a couple of felt-tip pens.

The plate must be bent in half and make cuts, as shown in the photo. Get a stand for future crafts. Then the front part of the product is shaped: feathers on the tail are cut out, the head is made round.

Using a stapler, we attach a beak and a scallop, draw a wing and decorate the Ryaba chicken with an ornament.

colorful birds

Birds can also be a symbol of Easter and Vince, because at this time they return from warm countries. Children can make these colorful appliques themselves, but they may need help with preparing the details.

Details for colorful birds can be printed directly onto colored paper from this template:
