DIY craft: papier-mâché piggy bank

First, prepare a paste from regular flour:

Now you can proceed to making a piggy bank:

- paste;
- brush;
- PVA glue;
- acrylic paints;
- sandpaper;
- putty;
- water-based paint.
Stages of work:

2. Carefully burst and remove the ball from the resulting workpiece.
3. In place of the hole we install cardboard heels. Below are four legs. We also cover them with newspaper. We wait for the future piggy bank to dry and cover it with a layer of foil.
4. Prepare the papier-mâché mixture. Pour boiling water over regular toilet paper. Squeeze and mix with PVA glue.
5. Cover the piglet completely with the mixture and use the same mixture to construct ears and a tail. We are waiting for complete drying.
6. Coat the pig with putty. As soon as it starts to dry, rub the surface of the pig with sandpaper. It should become smooth.
7. Then we paint it with white water-based paint.
8. Now we cover the workpiece with acrylic paints. Draw the eyes and mouth.
9. All that remains is to coat it with varnish, let it dry completely, and the piggy bank is ready.

Let's make piglets in the form of pendants. They can be used to decorate a wall or Christmas tree. And if you attach a magnet to them, it will be a great decoration on the refrigerator...
Required:
- salty dough;

Salt dough must be stored in a plastic bag while working, otherwise it will simply dry out.
3. Roll a medium-sized piece into a ball and flatten it into a flat cake. This will be the body of the pig. We make heels in the same way. We make the nostrils with a pen.
We coat the joints of the parts with a brush dipped in water.
4. Make eyes from small balls. They need to be placed above the heel. We make ears from triangles. We attach them with cuts at the junction with the body.
5. Now from the lower left edge we glue a heart made from a circle of dough. To make the body more voluminous, we make indentations on the sides of the entire piglet.
6.Using a rod, make two holes for the legs and two for the hanging cord.
7. Roll two thin sausage-like handles. We make a cut at the ends of the hoof. We place the handles so that the pig holds the heart in his hands.
8. For the legs, roll two small balls and bring them into a drop-shaped shape. On the wider side we make a cut for the hooves. With a narrow one we make a hole. Since they will be attached to the body using laces.
9. We wait for the craft to dry completely and start painting. First, let's paint the piglet black. This is necessary for the relief of the product. As soon as the paint dries, wash it off the convex parts of the body under the tap.
10. We wait for the pig to dry and now saturate it with white paint using a sponge in those places where the black color has washed off.
11. Now all that remains is to paint, let it dry, attach laces and additional details.
To make the craft durable, it must be painted with acrylic varnish.
