Volumetric Santa Claus made of cardboard. Paper Santa Claus: simple, interesting and fast

When preparing for the New Year, there are no trifles. After all, you need to think through everything - decorating your home, the holiday menu, as well as gifts for loved ones. Regarding the last point, it is not always necessary to run to the store. You can prepare gifts yourself, involving your children in this. For example, you can make a lot of New Year's crafts. We suggest doing Santa Claus using origami technique. The process of creating it is simple, if you follow the step-by-step photographs of our master classes from Marina and Vasilisa.

Origami Santa Claus, option No. 1

To make Santa Claus we will prepare:

• 2 squares of red single-sided paper;
• glue.

Initially, the squares should be the same size, we took 10 x 10 cm. From one we will make a head with a cap, and the other square will be needed to make the body. Let's start with the head. To do this, we make small folds on both sides.

We bend a small corner from the opposite edge. This will be the top of the cap.

Now we turn the square to the other side. Here you need to bend a third first.

Then we make a symmetrical fold on the right side.

This is how we formed the Santa Claus hat.

The bottom corner needs to be folded up.

Then we make a slight bend in the opposite direction.

We bend the top part of the cap to the side and, if necessary, glue it a little.

To make the body, take another square. We make small folds on it on opposite sides.

Fold in half.

After this, we unfold it, so we have outlined the middle line. First we bend the left edge to it.

Then we make a symmetrical fold on the right side.

We turn the top part in the form of corners.

We bend the top side down. After this, you can glue a little on the wrong side.

We connect the two parts together. To do this, we will use glue again.

If you wish, you can draw his eyes and mouth. This craft can become part of a New Year's greeting card.

Paper Santa Claus, option No. 2

To create Santa Claus we will prepare:

• a square sheet of red single-sided paper;
• black marker;
• red felt-tip pen.

When making this craft, it is important to use red paper, which will be white on the reverse side. If you don’t have one, then you can take 2 sheets of red and white. First, fold the red square diagonally.

This is how we outlined the middle fold line, which will become a guide in further work.

You first need to bend the right corner to this line.

After this, we perform a symmetrical fold of the left corner.

For further convenience, let’s slightly rotate the blank of the future Santa Claus.

Now you need to fold the workpiece in half. To do this, bend the bottom corner up, aligning it with the top corner.

The next stage we will form the beard of Santa Claus. To do this, bend the top corner down.

Let's make a small border. To do this, we will again bend the upper part in the form of a narrow strip.

We bend the left protruding part back.

Now we need to do the same with the right side of our workpiece.

Let's take a red marker. We will use it to draw a nose. Using a black marker we will mark the eyes.

Our Santa Claus made from paper using the origami technique is ready.

Such a craft can later become part of a New Year’s greeting card.

Marina's master class on how to make paper Christmas tree, look.

Option No. 3

You will need:

• felt-tip pens (or pencils) black and red,
• square sheet of paper 10 by 10 cm (you can take more or less). The paper should be two-colored - white on one side, red on the other. If you don’t have such paper, you can glue together sheets of white and double-sided red paper.

We need to bend our square diagonally.

Unfold the workpiece and also bend it in half along the second diagonal.

We bend the outermost corner to the top of the workpiece.

We see we have a line drawn, we need to turn the corner back.

We turn back. We see that we have a line; we need to bend a corner to it.

Now we can completely wrap up our lapel along with the corner. You will get it like this.

We work with the bottom of the craft. We bend the bottom corner to the top point.

We make a bend to the bottom point.

Turn over:

We make narrow stripes on the sides.

The same on the opposite side.

We see the middle line and bend both sides towards it.

And the second one.

We take the white parts and make a fold along the red line to the white one.

We bend this strip and make a square.

We do the same on the opposite side.

And a square.

And when we turn the figure over, we can see Santa Claus.

You need to draw his eyes and nose.

And that is all!

You don’t need to look for a special reason to practice with children, because it helps mental development and the formation of useful skills in smart kids. But the theme of all kinds of crafts may differ depending on the season, the child’s mood or upcoming events. So, New Year is the most long-awaited holiday of the year. Absolutely all children remember him as soon as the first cold weather arrives. Naturally, interesting New Year's creativity helps brighten up the anticipation of a bright holiday.

Who is the main symbol of the New Year? I believe this is Santa Claus. This old man pleases us with gifts and magic. What else do we expect from this holiday? Well, since we have already made Christmas trees, glued them, sewed them, then we definitely need to make Morozko.

Moreover, there are also many ideas for this. We will select options for every taste and for any material. After all, what is the most important thing in this craft? That's right, red hat and white beard. And that’s it, a guest from Veliky Ustyug is coming to us for a holiday. Well, for those who are closer to Santa Claus, there will also be ideas.

In general, it’s time for us to create and be inspired!

First, let's look at what creative individuals tried to make Grandfather out of. What happened to them at the first moment of creative thought? And for some reason I wanted to start the article with large interior and volumetric crafts.

Santa Claus from cups

These Frosts inspired me. All are made using the same technique, but how different they are, it’s simply amazing!

The combination of red and white cups immediately brings to mind who it is. Look at what beards are made of: cotton wool, cotton pads, paper, yarn.

And this Grandfather even has a beard made from cups.

So how do you make them? Let's look at the diagram. Draw the blank on paper with the diameter you choose. We will immediately lay out the equator of our ball. The larger the diameter, the larger the ball!

Then we lay out the cups along the line. We fasten them with a stapler and make a second, third row, removing 1-2 pieces from each layer to make a circle.

Or here’s an option where you only need one glass.

For the body we used a toilet paper or paper towel roll.

From candy

Next we have simple crafts and gifts with candies and lollipops. Remember, we looked at, and so there are also ideas with Frost and candies. I won't repeat myself. True, I only found one diagram. I am attaching it.

I was amused by the idea of ​​wood. It turns out that to create, you just need to take the right paint colors.

From the cones

Since we started talking about natural materials, here are some ideas from pine cones.

If there are a lot of cones, then you can do the same for Big Frost. But, of course, this craft is not for one day.

Another interesting option is made from napkins. From a distance, they also resemble cones.

Maybe someone likes to felt wool? Then here is a craft for you as an example with step-by-step actions.

This drawing was used as a basis.

Let's start with the body.

Using it we make a pattern from red fabric, leaving room for the head.

Turn it inside out and sew it together. We put it on a body made of wool.

Tighten the bottom edges with thread.

We make a hat, fur and beard.

Made from plaster or salt dough

Nowadays it is fashionable to make crafts from plaster. But for those who have children under five years old, it is better to make salt dough.

And you need to make an imprint of an outstretched palm, look.

Making a palm print. Dry the material.

Mark the drawing.

And we will implement it in colors.

We thread the string through the hole and hang it on the tree.

I’m sharing with you my discovery of popsicle sticks.

From threads

Have you ever seen the technique of pulling thread through nails? So, for those who are interested, these are the frosties you can create.

And with the help of a cone base and yarn, a very simple but interesting craft is made.

• felt,
• heat gun,
• yarn,
• paper cone,
• decor.

First, let's start with this felt face.

We cut out the necessary parts and glue them with hot glue.

Now we need to make a cone out of paper and wrap it with threads to make it look like this. Make sure there are no gaps.

The edges need to be well fixed with glue.

Let's put the craft together and don't forget about the handles.

From disposable plates

Yes, many people definitely have this improvised material lying around in their kitchens. Great craft idea for kids.

For this master class you will only need part of the plate. It will act as a sleigh.

Let's now take a step-by-step look at how frosting is made.

Take a plate and cut off 1/4 of it. Paint the inside, where the flat and smooth part is beige.

Take a red paper triangle and glue a plate onto it. All that remains is to form the eyes, mustache and pompoms.

Look what a cool beard Grandfather can make from disposable spoons.

And even eyebrows can be made from them.

Of course, there is an idea made from plasticine. Everything is shown in detail in the photo instructions.

If you happen to have a sheet of foam plastic at home, here’s what can come out of it.

There's a plastic water bottle lying around, dress that up too.

Well, there’s also a cool option with one plastic spoon, a cotton pad and yarn.

Take a spoon and cut off a stalk from it. We wrap the edge with thread. And coat the convex side with glue. Roll up the cotton pad. And glue it onto the spoon. All that remains is to add the missing elements.

What could be better than making New Year's crafts with your own hands? Only making crafts together with children! The most important New Year's character can be made from absolutely simple and affordable materials, and very little effort and skill is required to create it.

Roll is not only sushi

An original paper Santa Claus can even be made from a sheet of thick red cardboard rolled into a roll. But the simplest material for making a New Year's figurine is a cardboard roll from toilet paper or paper towels.

Manufacturing stages:

1. A sheet of red colored paper should be glued on top of the roller, and then the lower and upper edges of the cylinder should be folded in different directions as shown in Figures 1-6.
2. A white triangle should be placed on the top of the video - this is where the face of Santa Claus will be.
3. Using a black marker, draw boots on the lower corners of the cone and a belt around the cylinder.
4. Draw the character's face. Secure a loop between the upper corners of the cylinder to hang the toy on the Christmas tree.

Paper tricks

Fans of the popular origami technique can use various schemes for making paper crafts. It should be noted that the first version of the toy can be made from simple one-sided red colored paper, while the original craft from the second diagram will require independent coloring of a white sheet, taking into account the details indicated on the diagram.

Santa Claus made from cones

A minimal amount of effort and time will be required to make Santa Claus from a paper cone. This type of craft is perfect for a creative activity in kindergarten or for a pleasant pre-New Year's leisure activity. Santa Claus can be made from a ready-made printed template or made independently.

For this you will need:

• 1 sheet of white paper;
• 1 sheet of red colored paper;
• glue;
• stapler;
• scissors;
• a bead or small pompom in gold or white.

Progress:

1. Draw a circle on a piece of red paper. The desired height of the future figure should be equal to the radius of the circle.
2. Cut a circle out of red paper, fold it in half, roll it into a cone and secure the edges of the shape with glue or a stapler.
3. From a sheet of white paper, cut out an oval shape with wavy edges. Using the slot in the upper part of the oval, secure the part to the cone.
4. Draw the character’s face on the oval, glue on a red nose and white mustache. Add a bead or pompom to the finished figurine at the end of the cone.

Santa Claus - box

A figurine of Santa Claus under a decorated Christmas tree is a traditional element of New Year's celebrations. An unusual Santa Claus, made in the form of a surprise box, will help diversify the festive interior, as well as pleasantly surprise everyone who looks under the tree in search of gifts and sweets. Even one piece of candy or a small souvenir hidden inside the box will bring joy and a sense of celebration to the child who finds it.

Crafts using ready-made templates and stencils

The main New Year's character made by children for their loved ones will become the most expensive and desired gift. To make these, just print the templates on thick paper. A large selection of options will allow you to make several different crafts, which will undoubtedly be useful for sharing or in a large company.
