How to make a vytynanka with your child

Vytynanka looks like an openwork stencil. It is cut from paper, cardboard or foil. This is a subtle and very beautiful art.

Snowflakes that you cut from as a child paper, this is also a kind of vytynanka, only its simplest form. The name comes from the Ukrainian "pull out" - that is, "cut out". This art is popular in many countries of Europe and Asia.

As a material, you can use paper, katon, foil sheets, thin metal-plastic or plastic. You can cut with scissors, a utility knife, or scalpel. There is no special tool for pins. Even a wood cutter is often used.

The sheet from which you cut the pattern should be placed on plywood, linden board or glass cutting board.

You can use ready-made cutout stencils to cut the desired pattern. Cover the final figure with glitter varnish - it will be very beautiful.

For a start, you can take a simple template, otherwise you may not have enough patience and skill. Be sure to place a mat under the template. There is no need to rush - this work requires calmness and accuracy.
