To create a carrot, you will need an orange and green wire, as well as some kind of cylinder with a diameter of 2 cm. Wind the orange wire with a spiral, and then remove it from the base. Then make the top of the carrot a little wider than its nose. We leave this blank and proceed to the production of grass. We make three semicircles of green wire and wind them at the base. We attach such a twig to the wide side of the carrot. The product is ready. In this way, you can make an apple, for this purpose you will need to use a semicircular shape, make fruit from two halves.

Pendant
Crafts made of wire can look not only like toys, but also as accessories. For example, you can make yourself a fashionable pendant for a dress. To do this, take the copper wire and flatten it. For this purpose, you can use a hammer or use nippers. Before you begin, you need to draw a sketch of the decoration.

To make the jewelry look more interesting, you need to twist one part more than the other. Now connect the workpieces. They should be connected in the following order: the lower and upper parts should be mirrored vertically, and the side ones - horizontally. Fasten the workpieces together should be a thin wire.

But how to connect the finished product? It is not necessary to fasten it on the form, otherwise you will not be able to remove it. Connect the parts of the figure by twisting one end of the wire with another. Be sure to think in advance where the twisted part will be located. It is advisable to do it on the back of the animal, since a noticeable thickening will be located in this place. You can decorate the figurine with various details that will need to be made of thinner wire. For example, it can be a bow in a cat's neck or a bone in a dog.
Paper clips
Children at school constantly lose bookmarks. Such colored pieces of paper are inexpensive, but few people want to go to the store every three days (to purchase a new pack). Make your child bookmarks, paper clips with their own hands from the wire. Such figures can serve as toys, as well as a stylish and useful thing at the same time. It is possible to make in such a technique not only animals, but also things around us. For example, an envelope, a guitar, a flower. How to make a bookmark? You need to arm yourself with pliers and roll up the shape. To make this process easier, and you did not have to fantasize at the time of creation, you should draw a sketch in advance.
