There is an opportunity to make your child such a small, but surprising gift - to be in the role of a brave sailor at least on the New Year's holiday. We must prepare a white shirt, blue shorts and peaked cap. Suppose you can not sew it out of fabric, you can use durable paper. Interested in how to make a cap out of paper with your own hands? Very simple.
Measurements for the manufacture of his cap
For the manufacture of seaman's headdressYou need any thick paper, the ideal option would be a large sheet of drawing paper. First you need to measure the circumference of the child’s head. In order to keep the sailor's cap from paper on her head well, you need to add another three centimeters to the resulting size. This will be needed for bonding and free donning.
Cutting paper parts
When the head is measured, it is necessary to draw on the Whatman paperthe details. The first part is the side cap. To make it you need to draw a strip with the appropriate dimensions. The length should be equal to the head circumference and plus three centimeters. The height of the strip - 5 centimeters. Next, you need to draw the top. In order for the baby to fit the cap of paper, it is necessary to make the top bulky. For this we need to draw two circles. The radius of the small circle (and this will be internal): the length of the circumference of the head, divided by 0.6. Having received the radius of the circle, it is necessary to draw the circle itself. Then to the obtained value, that is, to the radius of the small circle, you need to add 7 cm. This will be the radius of the large (outer circle). On the received value also we draw the second circle. When drawing it must be borne in mind that the center of both circles should be the same. In the finished form should get a circle in the center of which is a round hole. He then need to cut. Next you need to cut another circle, equal to the big one. Now it is clear how to make a cap from paper with your own hands.
Assemblage of details
When three paper parts are ready, you canproceed to the connection. Initially, you need to glue two circles with white glue. To do this, on the edges of the circle, which is without a hole, fluff glue, put a circle with a hole on top. The edges must be tightly joined, but care must be taken to ensure that the glue does not get into the main part. While round parts stick together, you can do a side. In this case, nothing complicated. It is already clear how to make a cap from paper. The ends of the strip must be glued. When the side dries, it will need to attach the top. For this you need to make notches or cuts on the lower circle (which is with a hole). Scissors around the radius need to cut segments of a length of about 5 mm in 3-4 cm. Then bend them and carefully stick to the side. Let the blank dry. Now we know how to make a cap from paper with your own hands. It will take a little time to do this.
Registration caps
Когда заготовка моряцкого головного убора готова, You can proceed to its design. It is possible to paint a side before gluing with blue paint. This is certainly fast, but not very interesting. It is better to use a blue satin ribbon for this. It can be glued to the PVA glue, or use a thread with a needle and gently fasten in several places. Stitches on paper need to be done small, and you need to pay attention to the needle was thin and sharp, otherwise you can break the side. It is also necessary to burn the ends of the ribbon with a match so that it will not disband later. The satin ribbon must be twenty centimeters longer than the head circumference. After all, the sailor ribbons develop in the wind. Therefore, attaching it to the side, you should start to sew not the ends, but at a distance of ten centimeters from the end. Now it became known how to make a cap from paper with their own hands. Before you put on a sailor suit for your kid, you should not forget about paraphernalia. To do this, in front of a cap, you need to make an anchor. It can be cut out of velvet paper, and you can purchase ready-made appliqué. With a velvet anchor, with a flowing satin ribbon, the baby will feel like a real conqueror of the sea. By the cap, you can make a real sea collar (you can also not cut out of fabric, but cut out of paper).
