Home decor - ballerina from a napkin

We all love our house to be beautiful, look cozy and stylish. Many decorative ornaments can be made on their own, just apply a little imagination. Today I want to teach you how to make a lovely ballerina from wire and napkins, which will make your home more comfortable and add a playful mood to everyday life.
What you must have to make:
A few napkins. I have them of the same color, but you can combine napkins of different colors, add napkins with a pattern, and so on.
Wire. I took the usual wire for jewelry. If you don’t have one, any will do!
PVA glue.
Small deep capacity.
Some water.
Sewing thread to match napkins or ribbon.
We mix water and PVA in a container. We will need this mixture for gluing napkins on the body of a ballerina. While the mixture is infused, we make the frame - the body for the ballerina. It is not difficult to do, just bend the wire as you need.
Now cut the napkin into stripes. You can pick them up, but I prefer the neat, cut strips.
Now we begin to "sculpt" the body of the ballerina. We wind the stripes of the chopped napkin onto the wire frame and, having wet your fingers in the adhesive solution, soak the wound napkin.
At the place where, in theory, the head, wrap a little more napkins, for volume.
Fold the napkin square two times in half to make a sharp triangle, and cut off the bottom so that the skirt turns round rather than sharp at the ends.
Now wrap our triangle in a clockwise direction.
Carefully make holes in the unfolded napkin for the hands and head and dress the ballerina.
It remains to emphasize the waist. Wrap it with thread. For beauty, you can tie a ribbon or leave it like that.
The result is such a beauty.
