• White paper. Here you can use, as well as ordinary office paper, and the material is a little more slow. It is necessary to understand the more dense paper, the stronger the composition is created, so have this fact in mind.
• Scissors. Here you can use the most ordinary scissors with sharp teeth. The more the paper will be more, the more difficult it will be cut out with stupid scissors. Manicure scissors for the purposes under consideration are better not to use, because such scissors will very quickly go through paper.
• Glue. This composition is not necessary to use in this process, but if it is at hand, it will also be bad.
• Stationery knife. It should be noted that in this case you need to have certain skills to use the tools under consideration. Children such a knife in hand is better not to give, because it is too sharp, so it is completely unsafe.

Step-by-step instructions for creating pigeon paper

The process of manufacturing the craft under consideration is quite simple and does not require any additional skills or knowledge, so if you need to create a dove of paper, then the instructions below you to help:

• First you need to draw a template for which we will do our pigeon. If you do not have a special talent in drawing, then you can simply find a suitable template on the Internet, after which it is possible to print it easier to paint the sheet to the screen.
• The optimal option to find a template or draw it double so that the pigeon has a double torso, but one fluffy tail. Do not forget about the wings, they should also be wide and open to make a beautiful dove.
• The pigeon can be made on one sheet with a tail so that even these parts did not have to cut each other. Among other things, a piece of paper, which is located between the two sides of the body of our bird, is not needed, because we will collect together this composition together with this part (which at first glance may seem very unnecessary).
• In order for you to be easier, it is necessary to indicate the lines of the chart of honey with two parts of the body and the place of fastening the body and tail, it is for them that we will bend our items.
• The tail of the pigeon will need to be cut to the middle, and, not once, to give him a flocculation.
• According to the previously drawn to the dotted, you will be very easy to bend the figures, the main thing is to do it strictly along the lines so that the pigeon will ultimately become proportional.
• The remaining triangle between the tail and the torso, will need to be smeared with glue to take the tail you need, that is, was flushed. It is not worth it for the too thick layer of glue, because it can excessively impregnate the paper and ultimately lead to the fact that the sheet is discovered and ruptures the composition performed from the paper.
• Now it is also necessary to glue the two sides of the body among themselves, but in order for the bird to be volumetric. It will be necessary to mark glue only the beak (the inner part, one of two) and attach them to each other.

• The next step is "install" the pigeon's wings, the main attribute of our crafts. They can be fastened with glue, but it is necessary to do it carefully, so as not to smell the entire craft, so it's preferably to wash your hands before the process. It is clear that the wings will be pasted on the middle of our pigeon, so that it looks as natural as possible, that is, naturally.

It is also worth remembering that the hands when performing this task should be clean, because on white paper prints of dirty hands remain instantly.

Dove is ready, so you can send it at least to the exhibition, even on the decoration of any hall or other room.
