Chicks Craft Instructions
Step #1: Coloring The Tissue
Begin this craft by taking tissue paper and a yellow-colored highlighter and coloring the tissue paper using it.
Step #2: Cutting Tissue Paper Strips
Using scissors, cut the tissue paper into thin strips.
Step #3: Cutting Bits Of The Strips
Next, using the scissors, cut the long strips into bits and pieces as shown in the image.
Step #4: Taking Out Yellow Clay
Now, take yellow clay, and stretch to pull out a piece from the whole.
Step #5: Placing The Clay Ball Over The Base
Dough the yellow clay into a ball and place it over a white circular paper sheet which will act as the base for your craft!
Step #6: Flattening The Clay Balls
Make another yellow clay ball relatively bigger than the previous one and place it below the already placed one a little to its left. Now, using a polymer clay pressing tool flatten the clay balls into circles.
Step #7: Pushing In A Tissue Piece
Now, put a tissue piece over the clay circle, and use a clay shaping tool to push it in from its center and get wrinkled paper from the sides of it.
Step #8: Covering The Whole Clay Circle With Wrinkled Tissue Bits
One by one put the tissue pieces on the clay circles and push them in from their center to get the wrinkled paper all over the clay circle. This will be the furry body of the chick.
Step #9: Drawing The Chick’s Beak And Legs
Using a red sketch pen, make a triangular beak on the base and to the face of the chick. Using a black sketch pen, draw its stick-like legs beneath its body.
Step #10: Making More Chicks And Adding Their Eyes
As you made the yellow chick, make an orange and a pink chick too by using the respective colored clay and highlighter on the tissue. Also, make their legs and beak too as shown in the image. For their eyes, paste 1-1 googly eye over the face of the chick beside the beak using glue.
Step #11: Making Grass On the Background
Now, to make the grass, make small clay rolls from green clay and stick these horizontally and randomly over the white base on the spaces between the chicks. Using the clay shaping tool, carve vertical upward strokes over these clay rolls to give them the shape of grass.
This Is The Final Look Of Your Tissue And Clay Chicks!
For the last step, make tiny red clay balls and stick them over the grass and nearby base to make them look like the scattered food of chicks. Use the picture for the reference.
