To make a paper ballerina, you will need a stencil of the required size (you can take it on the Internet or use the stencil from photographs for the master class), thick paper, several paper napkins, scissors, a stapler, and thread.
1. Transfer the ballerina drawing onto thick paper using a stencil pencil;
2. Cut out the ballerina figurine, the more detailed and accurately you cut out the base, the more spectacular the end result will be.
The ballerina figure can be made in any color, painted or added shiny details. For example, highlight pointe shoes or add glitter. Do not make the structure too heavy so that the thread can support the weight of the ballerina and does not break.
3. To make one ballerina you will need 6 paper napkins. Take 3 of them and place them on top of each other. Trace a round stencil using a pencil, and cut out a circle from paper napkins.
4. Staple all layers of napkins in the center with a stapler.
5.To add volume to a ballet skirt, you need to straighten all layers separately. You can bend the edge a little or make a cut around the circumference, then the skirt will turn out larger and more airy.
6. Bend the resulting ball in half and use a stapler to attach it to the ballerina’s body. Straighten the layers again.
7. Similar actions need to be done with the skirt for the other side of the ballerina.
8. The thread can be attached to the ballerina's arm. The figurine looks magical under the ceiling and rotates when the air blows.
