Do-it-yourself Krupenichka doll. Master class with photos

Krupenichka was considered the main doll in the family. Our ancestors decorated it richly and carefully kept it for a year in the most visible place in the house. Krupenichka is a doll that brings wealth and well-being to the house, creating warmth and comfort in it. This doll will be a good gift for a young family for a wedding or housewarming.

Each clan-family made them in its own way, investing all the love and accumulated centuries-old wisdom. They bore the imprint of the Spirit of this family, their Worldview and Attitude. Through the doll, a connection was established between ancestors and descendants, and secret ancestral knowledge was transmitted. Create your own, unique, warm, real - living doll Krupenichka.

The basis of the doll was a bag of grain. In ancient times, these dolls were created after the harvest, filling them with selected grain collected from the field. This is where the sowing season began, first sowing the grain taken from this pupa.

Traditionally, Krupenichka was filled with buckwheat, which symbolized satiety and wealth, but it can also be filled with other grains (for example, rice - an expensive “holiday” grain, or oats - a grain of strength).

To create Krupenichka you will need:

Unbleached linen fabric (for the body of our doll), ~ 20x20 cm;
- cereal (I use buckwheat), ~ 1 cup;
- linen or cotton fabric (for the undershirt), ~ 20x10 cm;
- linen lace or linen/cotton fabric (for the outer shirt), ~ 20x10 cm;
- linen or cotton fabric (for zipun), ~ 40x10 cm;
- linen lace or linen/cotton fabric (for the warrior), ~ 20x10 cm;
- linen or cotton fabric (for a scarf), ~ 40x20 cm;
- linen lace and/or small pieces of fabric (for an apron), ~ 7-10 cm;
- natural linen threads;
- red floss;
- copper fittings (to give the dolls expressiveness, I use pendants in the form of spoons, keys, etc.);
- tailor's scissors;
- scissors with a curly edge;
- needle.

Master class on making a Krupenichka doll

To create doll clothes, I recommend using a combination of plain fabrics with fabrics in small patterns. They look as organic as possible.
In terms of color scheme, I recommend using fabrics of no more than 2 main harmonizing colors, shading them with fabrics of component colors.

Our ancestors, instead of measuring instruments, used their parts of the body - elbow, span, fathom, etc. When measuring fabric, the same principle was used.

In order to create the body of our doll, we take unbleached linen fabric, place two palms on it side by side, measuring in this way a square ~ 20x20 cm. Cut it out.

Let me clarify right away - our ancestors did not use scissors when creating dolls. Pieces of fabric were torn off by hand, folded in different ways (depending on the specific type of doll), and tied with threads.

However, to make the doll beautiful and neat, I still prefer to cut the fabric.

Fold the resulting square in half.

At a distance of 1 cm from the edge we sew together with natural linen thread. I leave the tails of the threads on both sides long and then tie knots from them by hand.

At the top and bottom of the bag we gather the edge of the fabric with a basting stitch, leaving long tails of thread so that we can tighten them and tie them securely.

For the part of the bag that will be the top of the pupa, the tails of the threads should be on the inside of the bag (after we turn the bag inside out, they will accordingly be on the outside). This can be achieved if you insert the needle from the inside of the bag for the first time, and when you come to the last stitch, bring the needle and thread also to the inside.

We tighten the part of the bag that will be the bottom of the pupa, tie it with 3 knots, for reliability we wrap it with the rest of the thread and secure it with 3 more knots.

Turn the bag right side out.

Add the cereal. The body should be very dense, so we fill the bag full, leaving very little space to hide the tails of the fabric in it.

After we have hidden the remaining fabric inside, we pull it very tightly and tie it with 3 knots.

We measure out the undershirt from the fabric. The shirt should cover 2/3 of our doll, i.e. hide it from the neck to the toes, leaving room for the face. To ensure that the bottom edge of the shirt is even, we will fold the fabric in half. Cut it out. We wrap our doll, placing the edges of the fabric overlapping, thus covering the back seam of the bag. The seam will be the back of the doll's head.

10. Wrap the fabric tightly and secure with red thread.

In ancient times, when creating a protective doll, all the storage joints of Zhiva (life-giving force) were tied with red thread to protect them.

11. Measure and cut the linen lace for the outer shirt.

We wrap them over the bottom shirt so that the edges of the shirt do not meet on the front side, leaving a gap of about 3 cm. We gather them with linen thread and fasten them with 3 knots.

Let's move on to creating a zipun (kaftan). Cut out a strip of fabric. The length of the strip depends on how thick the fabric itself is. If it is a thin strip, cut it longer; if it is dense, cut it shorter.

We take a copper pendant (for me this will be a key). We thread a linen thread into the eye and secure it firmly in the center with two knots.

Place a thread on the edge of a strip of fabric. And from the edges to the center we begin to twist the sleeves-handles, along with the thread and the key.

15. We put the resulting zipun on the doll in such a way that the edges of the twisted sleeves remain outside, and the height is located 1.5-2 cm above the bottom edge of the shirt. Wrap tightly and secure the zipun with linen thread. We tie it with 3 knots.

Throw the tail of the thread holding the key diagonally over the head, and using a needle carefully attach it to the thread that holds the zipun.
We don’t prick the doll, and we don’t sew anything to it! We only need a needle so that we can wrap the thread from the key around the thread holding the zipun together. Secure with 3 knots.

Dressed in clothes with national elements, the Krupenichka doll is an old Slavic amulet. It is made in the autumn, because cereals collected in the current year are used for work. The motanka is made thick and large so that prosperity and prosperity reign in the house.

Traditions

Our ancestors made rag dolls of different types. The main one was Krupenichka. It should have been in every home. It was also called differently, depending on the type of cereal inside: Grechishnitsa (from buckwheat), Pea (from peas), Zernovushka (from other fillings). The dolls were made from burlap. They were faceless. Instead of a face, a protective cross was often wrapped around the head. The Craftswomen accompanied their actions by reading prayers and incantations.

The amulet was installed in a prominent place in the red corner. There should have been icons nearby. When the harvest was high, the doll was made large, then each guest had the opportunity to assess the condition of the owners. In the spring, grain was taken from a reel for sowing. It was believed that it would give a good start to the future harvest. After a new harvest, it was filled with the most valuable types of cereals. If there was not enough food in winter, supplies were taken from the bag.

Properties of the amulet

A grain of grain in the house means satiety and prosperity in the family. It is given as a housewarming gift. The Slavic bereginya will protect the owners of the house and bring them well-being. If a guy goes into the army, it is useful to present him with Krupenichka.

Motanka is also used for the following purposes:

for a successful marriage;
for healing from diseases whose cause is unknown;
to replenish the family, cure infertility;
for enrichment;
to return male strength.

If, after turning to the ritual doll, you manage to get pregnant, it is not thrown away, but left as a toy for the unborn baby. When there are bad relationships in the family, it is worth making a male doll - the Rich Man. A note with corresponding wishes is placed in the grains of the reels. They will definitely bring peace back to the family.

Zernovushka is also given to newlyweds for their wedding along with its partner, Bogach. Their meaning is to protect the family's wealth.

Making a talisman

Making Krupenichka is easy. In order for it to benefit the owners of the house, a certain scheme should be followed.

Rules

It is worth making a talisman according to the following principles:

the process should be carried out by a woman without the presence of men;

Which cereals to choose

For the Krupenichka doll, different types of grain or mixtures thereof are suitable. The main thing is that it is healthy, whole and unprocessed. The following types of cereals are suitable:

corn - for children’s health, mutual understanding in the family;
buckwheat is a symbol of wealth, fertility;
oats - strength and power;
pearl barley - for a well-fed life;
millet - resistance to the evil eye and damage;

A grain of rice was used as a gift. It was presented on a big holiday, because cereals were expensive in the old days. The tradition has survived to this day.

How to do

Do-it-yourself krupenichka is a whole ritual. To make it you will need:

square piece of fabric (20 cm side);
for a bottom shirt, a rectangle (the size of a bag) is suitable;
outer shirt;
padded jacket and sleeves - material 7 cm wide, length is selected according to the thickness of the fabric;
warrior;
handkerchief - fabric 40 cm long;

Master class on making a doll:

Cereals are poured in the center of the piece of material and tied so that there are few irregularities. You will get a bag.
Put on an undershirt and an outer shirt. The bottom one should stick out a few centimeters.
The warrior is secured so that it fits the head well.
Sleeves are made on the sides by twisting the material. The edges should extend 2 cm from the top shirt.
They put on a padded jacket and wrap it up.
The apron is secured with the same thread.
A scarf is tied on the head.

Krupenichka is dressed up according to her own taste. They put on jewelry. The Rich Man is created in the same way. They just make him a hat, shirt and pants.

Grain is made with your own hands and in other ways. Even socks are suitable for the process.

Creating a doll according to the instructions:

Pour the cereal inside.
The thread is tied so that the corresponding proportions of the head and body are obtained.
Hands made of rectangular fabric are attached.
They put on a skirt and scarf.

Several cloves of garlic are placed in bags to ward off evil spirits. They will also protect the grain from pests. Sometimes a coin is placed along with the cereal to attract wealth and good luck. It is forbidden to add hair, photographs, nails, soil, or wax to the filling.

Among the ancient ancestors of the Slavs, there was a powerful belief - the more amulets you create, the more you will attract goodness into your home and protect yourself from negativity. One of these sacred things was Krupenichka doll. You can also find such names as Zernushka, Zernovushka and Pea. The Krupenichka doll was intended to attract wealth to the family. Craftswomen and housewives always made the Krupenichka doll with their own hands, using only natural materials.

The Krupenichka doll had the following significance in Slavic life and magical practice - it brought to the house not only wealth and abundance of food, but also a wealth of grains and other fruits. The grains of the first sheaf, the first harvest, were placed in it.

According to Slavic beliefs, the Krupenichka doll was made to:

multiply the grain harvest many times over;
preserve collected items from mice and other pests;
drive away evil forces;
store grain from rot and other damage;
bring the offspring of pregnancy and a successful birth.

The grains were not ground, fried or specially dried. The task was to preserve living grains until the next sowing, because they were taken from the doll first for sowing.

Important points about making a Krupenichka doll with your own hands

Grains of various cereals were placed in the amulet's cereal bag, but they must be whole, not ground or crushed. Most often used for grain:

It is extremely important to make the amulet right away, without abandoning the manufacturing process halfway or postponing it until later. No faces are painted on Krupenichki or made in any other way.

Features of doll parts:

bright colors of scraps;
You can choose any colors;
it is allowed to use lace and braid;
the apron can be decorated with handmade embroidery;
it is advisable to put a warrior on the doll’s head (a headdress that covers the hair in front) under a scarf;
The bag should be stitched only with red thread made from natural fibers;
let the bag be made of canvas or linen;
You should definitely put any coin at the bottom of the bag.

The assembled krupenichka did not stand in the house all year round. Grains were taken out of it for sowing in the spring, and the doll was prepared in the fall, when the first grain harvest was harvested. All elements of the doll could be stored and then used again. But they could remove the old bag, disassemble the doll with gratitude, and burn all its parts. Or they could pour new grain into the same bag and reassemble and decorate the doll.

Special points in using Krupenichka

Such a doll was usually placed in the kitchen, or in a common room where food was prepared and the family could relax. Some families had huts or houses where there was only one large room, and in more spacious houses one large room could be used, in which food was prepared and people could sleep.

After the advent of Christianity, the Slavs continued to maintain the traditions of their ancestors, so they placed the doll near Orthodox icons. In a word, it is best to keep Zernushka near food products in a place in the kitchen where there is decorative decoration or where there is a small “red corner”, that is, a small altar place.

From time to time, several grains were obtained from Krupenichka to add to the porridge. The ancestors of the Slavs believed that such porridges would bring more health and satiety.

Children are not only allowed to play with Zernovushka, but it was even considered obligatory. Therefore, you have to make such a talisman using threads and a needle in order to more reliably strengthen all the details of the product.

When the grain was taken out of the doll’s bag for sowing, fresh grain was put into it, and the doll itself was again dressed up in new beautiful sundresses, scarves and all sorts of beads.

This amulet served as an excellent gift for relatives and close friends. They always give Krupenichka with good wishes for wealth in the family and home. Before placing the accepted gift in a place of honor, you must also introduce him to Father Domov, saying:

Accept, furry grandfather (Domovoy's name, if you have one), a new owner. With her we will have both prosperity and offspring.

There is also a male prototype of such a doll, whose name is Bogach. The appearance might be slightly different, but the principle remained the same - to store a little grain, whole grain, inside the rag figurine. You should not make the Krupenichka doll skinny; its body bag should be filled to capacity. This is done to increase wealth. It was believed that when such a talismanic doll is in the house, then the household will always be fed with porridge, and the bins will always have full boxes.

The amulet doll Krupenichka and Bogach have been considered a talisman for married couples since ancient times. These home talismans not only bring material wealth to the house and allow you to preserve and increase what you have accumulated, but also give warmth and improve relationships in the family. If you feel that for some reason your partner has become colder, that there is barely enough money for basic necessities and food, then urgently purchase or make an amulet doll yourself.

Couple-amulet: dolls Krupenichka and Bogach

Krupenichka and Bogach are considered one of the first dolls that appeared among the Slavic peoples. The fact is that since ancient times, the people of our country have made a living by raising households, in particular, growing wheat and other cereals in the garden. There is even a proverb that says “without bread and without porridge our labors are insignificant.” It is clear that grain production was necessary, and if for some reason the harvest was smaller, then for the family it was a real disaster. That is why the rag dolls Krupenichka and Bogach were filled with grain, which means that it symbolizes that the family will always have prosperity, that they will be rich.

The grain is a female figure, symbolizing the feminine principle. It is filled with buckwheat, pearl barley or oats - which was most commonly grown in the region. The male version is the Rich Man, that is, a male figure. In any case, there are no faces in the design, since since ancient times it was believed that an evil spirit could enter a person through the image of eyes. Therefore, under no circumstances purchase dolls with images, even animalistic ones, of caricatured faces, although these are often found in online stores. They are made by unprofessional magicians who understand little about esotericism and are simply aimed at making the amulet as attractive as possible. Krupenichka and Bogach must stand side by side to achieve harmony in the family. Just as the masculine cannot exist without the feminine, so the feminine cannot exist without the masculine. In Slavic culture, Krupenichka and Bogach symbolize something like the more well-known and understandable Yin and Yang.

Krupenichka doll: appearance, features, meaning, application

Women began making krupenichka during the buckwheat harvest. Traditionally, it was filled only with this grain, although now there are variations not only with pearl barley or wheat, but even with risk, bulgur and the like. The bag was sewn in advance, and the doll was dressed and filled during the middle of the harvest. Then it was placed in a prominent place, and in the spring the ribbons holding the amulet were untied, and the stored cereal was added to the new crop. It was believed that this contributed to the germination of large sprouts and an increase in yield.

Krupenichka can be distinguished by the following appearance features:

many aprons - a symbol of thriftiness and homeliness;
straightened arms - in some dolls they are gathered on the stomach;
two scarves - caring grain.

The value is determined by what kind of cereal is poured into Krupenichka. In particular it symbolizes:

buckwheat - wealth and satiety;
oats - strength and endurance;
pearl barley - satiety and prosperity;
rice - success and benefit.

Often, wanting to attract several positive changes, women mixed cereals. To enhance the effect, several coins were placed at the bottom of the doll. Of course, Krupenichka was used more often in the past. It was in it that a small part of the harvest was stored, which in winter was charged with power, and in the spring it served as a kind of amulet for new sowings - grains were added to new ones. The filling was replaced annually, immediately after harvest. Of course, no one uses the figurine in this way these days. But it is necessary to put it in the house, and also to replace it annually (even with cereal purchased at the market or in a supermarket).

Rich Doll: appearance, features, meaning, application

The rich man is an amulet that is almost the same in meaning, features and appearance as Krupenichka. True, this is a male character who has several additional features. The rich man is called to bring wealth, money to the house, and protect the home from evil spirits. It looks like a bag of grain, classic embroidery is worn, arms are spread out or lowered, but not crossed. The rich man is not only a symbol of material wealth. This doll also symbolizes the spiritual principle. It says that a person gets what he wants only if all his thoughts and actions are regulated by Divine laws. The rich man is placed near the icons or under them; they enhance the magical effect.

From time immemorial, the figurine of the Rich Man began to be made on the holiday of Autumn - when the harvest was final. The end of the harvest is an important period, which was especially celebrated among the Slavs. In Oseniny people were in a positive mood and discussed new sowing. The rich man symbolizes:

wealth;
prosperity;
generosity;
good luck;
ability to sacrifice;
love and patience;
faith in God.

It should be noted that during the production of the Rich Man, as a rule, the family discussed spiritual issues. They remembered the greats of their family, told what they were grateful for and why they loved their own ancestors. There is also another feature of Bogach - it was not always filled with new cereal. This was done only if the year was relatively successful. If the year turned out to be bad and the family was worried about their well-being, then the bag and clothes were burned. The doll had to be made again.

How to make Krupenichka and Bogach dolls with your own hands?

Krupenichka and Bogach dolls are easy to make with your own hands. To do this you will need to collect the necessary materials. Please note that the size of the dolls may vary; some will suit small figures of 4-5 centimeters, while others will be delighted with 20-centimeter products. The size of the figures does not affect the magical power in any way. The dimensions given are for standard-looking figures, up to 6-7 centimeters high. Collect:

a piece of light linen fabric 15 by 15 centimeters for one doll;
flap for a skirt or shirt 5 by 15 centimeters;
a flap for a scarf 25 by 10 centimeters (for men too);
square 7 by 7 centimeters for Krupenichka’s apron.

Be sure to choose different and bright fabrics to make the doll beautiful and elegant. Cereals are used for stuffing; its symbolism was described above in the article. Small strips of light linen fabric are needed to make the hands. You will need strong threads for tying. Please note that all presented elements will be required in duplicate, since there are two figures. Master class on making Krupenichka:

pour cereal into the center of the first flap and shape the head;
we apply a flap for the head and tie it like a scarf;
we gather the skirt with a thread so that it has waves;
prepare shreds for hands;
we tie the skirt, having previously stuffed the middle with cereal, and tie a thread at the back, and also add hands there;
we tie an apron - there can be several of them;
we tie the skirt around the edge;
we connect all the details.

The Krupenichka amulet doll can be made using a master class in a matter of minutes. The rich man is absolutely the same, but you will need to remove the scarf, fasten the fabric differently, and use a shirt instead of an apron. It is important to find the right place for the figurine. As a rule, she moves around the house and spends a long time looking for her place. You can put it on the refrigerator, near the TV, in a bookcase or sideboard - there is absolutely no difference. But if you want to rearrange the piece or if for some unknown reason it falls on its side, then it’s better to look for a new place. When you cannot remember where your home amulet is, it will mean that Krupenichka and Bogach have finally found their place and are reliably protecting family members.

Where can I buy Krupenichka and Bogach dolls?

Knowing what the figures mean makes it easy to complete them. But if you don’t want to do it yourself, you understand that you obviously don’t understand matters of needlework, then it’s better to buy an amulet in online stores. Make sure to charge it properly. It is best to do this on the waxing Moon, at the time when the first harvest is being harvested from the fields in your region. It wouldn’t hurt to fill the figurines with at least purchased cereal yourself - this will give magical power. Reading a prayer while charging is not necessary, but it is better to place the figures under the icons. The amulets dolls Krupenichka and Bogach are the most ancient Slavic symbols. But not only Orthodox Christians, but also people of other faiths can use them.

There is such a popular proverb, they say, happiness does not lie in wealth, however, man is designed in such a way that in addition to spiritual food, he needs material food. And that’s why people have always strived for financial well-being. But often, faced with all sorts of obstacles on their way, they looked for an additional way to attract good luck.

The history of the appearance of folk amulets dolls

In order to attract wealth, conspiracies were invented, and all financial actions were carried out based on whether the moon was waxing or waning. Our ancestors protected their house from the evil eye with homemade amulets, the very first of which was a horseshoe for good luck. Later, our ancestors began to make special amulets dolls with their own hands.

Thus, rag doll amulets Bogach, Krupenichka, Successful and others were considered a talisman for well-being, happiness and prosperity. Russian amulets were made only from natural materials (straw, thread, fabric, clay, wood), and only women were allowed to make them. Moreover, absolutely all Slavic amulets did not have a face, so that through them it would be impossible to damage the owner of the doll. There were no master classes, as you yourself understand, then, so the secrets of their production were passed on from generation to generation.

Slavic amulet Merchant-Successful

The Successful amulet doll represents a person who succeeds in any work, be it household chores or financial ones, a person who manages to do everything on time and with high quality. This reel is designed to help in any endeavor, promotes career growth, prosperity and happiness in your personal life. Well done, beautifully decorated, the doll stands firmly on its own two feet.

A fabric bag thrown over her shoulder symbolizes tasks that she can do. This motanka is small, about 10-15 cm, so it is convenient to carry it with you to important events. The doll needs to put a coin or banknote in her purse, then the work will bring a stable income. And after each successful business or cash receipt, you need to thank the motanka by sharing money with her or giving her jewelry (ribbons, beads).

Amulet for double profit

The history of the folk protective doll for double profit is very interesting. This motanka comes from the Kaluga province, which has preserved the traditions of making folk dolls to this day. They made such a talisman for a merchant for a new endeavor, so that the business would progress and bring a stable income.

The two babies that the doll holds in her hands symbolize double profit. After all, as you know, our most important wealth is children. The amulet contributes to both the successful running of an existing business and the promotion of a new brand.

Money Box

Another Slavic amulet for well-being and prosperity is considered to be the Kubyshka motanka. It is made using dry herbs, to which a coin is placed. This amulet is not only for wealth, but also for health, which is very necessary in moving up the career ladder.

With her curvy figure as a sign of health, and knots in her hands symbolizing accumulated wealth, Kubyshka is very popular among connoisseurs of Slavic amulets dolls. Having such a talisman in your apartment or office, you can enjoy the smell of fragrant herbs at any time. To do this, you just need to crush the reel with your hands.

Doll for happiness and good luck

Perhaps one of the most charming and famous Slavic amulets was the Doll for good luck. It's all about her long brown braid, which not only gives her the charm of youth, but also symbolizes a long and carefree life. And the longer the doll’s braid, the greater protective power it has.

After all, it is in a person’s hair, according to a long-standing popular belief, that all life force is concentrated. Under no circumstances should cut hair be thrown away or “thrown into the wind”; it was tied with threads and used in various ritual dolls or burned. And before the wedding, the groom bought his betrothed’s braid from the family, promising to be a good husband for his chosen one and make her happy.

Krupenichka - a talisman for prosperity

The Krupenichka (Zernovushka) doll personifies all the riches of our Mother Earth and is a powerful amulet for prosperity, well-being and good luck. The story goes that the doll was the main talisman for grain used for sowing. In the spring, the doll was dismantled, the grain was used, and in the fall a new doll was made from the same scraps of fabric, filling it with grain from the new harvest.

In the house, Krupenichka always stood in the most visible place, in the red corner. By the thickness of the doll they judged how the family was living, whether they were starving. Indeed, in difficult and hungry times, a handful of cereals located inside the protective pouch could be used as food. A variety of grains could be put into the grain, and each of them had its own protective properties:

rice is a talisman for wealth, since in those days it was the most expensive cereal;
oats - a talisman for strength and health;
pearl barley, buckwheat - a talisman for satiety and prosperity.

They often put in several grains at the same time, and put a coin in a bag of grain. We hope the history of folk dolls has interested you, and you are ready to make amulets dolls with your own hands. We present to your attention a master class on making a Krupenichka motanka, in which we will look at how to make a talisman doll.

Step by step photos:

Master class stages:

The basis of our doll is a grain bag, so we will make it the first stage of the master class. We fold the fabric in the middle along the edge line and stitch it with the letter “G”, then turn it inside out and fill it with cereal, not forgetting to place a coin in the bag. We tie the bag on top with a red protective thread. Using the same thread, we tie the workpiece 2/3 from the bottom edge, on the neck.
Let's proceed to the most interesting part of the master class - we will dress up our reel. We tie the lower skirt with threads, then the lace upper one. Let's make a warrior under the scarf: first we tie the lace, then the braid with an ornament.
We twist a strip of fabric for a padded jacket on both sides. We place the doll on top, so that the top edge is just above the neck, and wrap it with thread. We tie the apron (one or several) using the reverse method. The top apron can be embroidered with floss threads or using braid with an ornament, as done in our master class.
We put the scarf on top of the warrior, make side folds and tie it at the back. We tie a narrow strip of the same fabric on top of the scarf. All that remains is to tie the belt. Now we have finished our Master Class, look how wonderful Krupenichka we have turned out to be.

And in pair with Krupenichka, you can make another amulet - a Bogach doll. It is done according to the same principle as described in the Master Class above. Let this couple become a real amulet for you and bring you and your family good luck, happiness and prosperity.

You can also make a Bereginya doll.
