From the upper edge of the trunk details, we recede 0.5 centimeters. With stitches we sew around this workpiece. We fill the bag with filler and dried aromatic herbs (chamomile, sage, thyme). The thread laid along the top edge of the part is tightened and fastened. The trunk and handles of the composition "Little House" are executed by their own hands.

Next, draw hair from the grass brush. A bunch of this material is stitched by hand with small stitches or we spread it on a typewriter, while laying underneath the textile tape. We glue the "wig" on the bag in the head area.

Shoes in the form of bast shoes are made from dried leaves of corn or twine. Of these, plait a braid about 6-7 centimeters long and wrap it with a loop. We bind the workpieces with twine, cut the ends briefly. From pieces of sacking we roll the roll and insert it into the bast shoes. We glue together these blanks. We sew or fasten with the help of glue the legs on the figure in the right places.

Fill the bags "with a slide." To the cereals do not crumble, mix them in a separate container with a glue of PVA, and then transfer the resulting mass into a bag. When these parts dry, cover the seeds with a colorless varnish. This will give them shine and protect the product from damage by insects. Sacks with "good" are attached behind the figures in the back area. Next, decorate the composition "House" from sacking, made by hand.
