Ready-made samples of blanks
Creating a paper set is not a very popular process today compared to flowers, butterflies, and landscapes. It is still very rare to find professional blanks for creating furniture appliqué on sale, but if you have a vivid imagination, you can create beautiful pictures.
As we noticed, there are quite a few blanks, but they still exist. They are quite easy to use. We cut the blank and glue it in the desired order. If desired, we complete the missing elements (wallpaper, carpets, etc.). It is important not to confuse them with regular colored stickers.
Creating an applique from ready-made material is quite simple (cut and paste), but if you want to make it yourself, you will have to get confused.

Self-execution
Let's try to create a chair together. To do this we need colored paper (blue, yellow and red), a button without a needle, glue and scissors. We start from the back of the chair. Draw a shape resembling a crown on a blue sheet. We do the same on yellow, but smaller in size. Draw two orange slices on a red piece of paper. Let's move on to the legs and seat. Cut out 4 red pieces measuring 2 x 4 cm (3 pieces) and 2 x 5 cm (1 piece). We twist them into tubes and secure them with glue. We assemble a chair from the resulting material. We decorate the back with a button.
As you can see, such products look much brighter and neater. Let's look at a few sketches, having learned to draw which, you will be able to create creations with smooth, clear contours.
Let's create a TV and a sofa. We redraw them or translate them using carbon paper.

Paper 3-D
Using curly scissors you can also cut out elements for 3D applique. Cut out a cross with sides 3 x 3 cm. Glue a cube from it (the base of the chair). Glue the back to the shape we need. Wait for it to dry completely and paint. Let's make the table: cut out a strip measuring 2 x 5 cm, roll it into a tube and secure it with glue. Cut out a circle and attach a tube to one side (this will be a table). We paint the table.
We attach these elements to a sheet of paper, finish drawing the background - the craft is ready.
Thus, we considered several creation options. Of course, the blank material at work looks much brighter, but if you know how to draw beautifully and select colors, then homemade elements will look no worse. Select shapes, tones, complement with invented elements, diversify your applications. With their help, children will be able to learn new words, develop imagination and imagination. Good luck!
