1.1 Fold the paper diagonally, holding one end to keep it sharp.

1.2 Secure the paper rolled into a cone with tape. You don't need to do everything too carefully, since you will cover the cone with wrapping paper.

1.3 Trim off the excess at the bottom of the cone to create a smooth base.

2. Prepare colorful wrapping paper and cover the cone with it. To do this, place the paper on a flat surface with the pattern facing down.

2.1 Using tape, attach the end of the construction paper to the top of the cone.

2.2 Begin to slowly twist the cone while wrapping it in the wrapping paper. You need to wrap the cone tightly.

2.3 Measure the paper and cut it before completely wrapping it around the cone. Glue double tape to the edges and connect to the other end. You need to cut off the excess at the base so that the paper is even.

DIY fabric Christmas tree. How to make a Christmas tree from felt.

You will need:

Glue or double tape

Scissors

* Try using two colors of felt to make the Christmas tree even more beautiful. In this example, yellow and orange felt was used.

1. Make a cone out of cardboard. Secure the ends with glue or double tape.

2. Prepare felt and cut circles of different diameters from it, from small to large (see picture). You can use pre-prepared circle templates made from cardboard.

3. Glue Christmas tinsel to the bottom of the cone.

4. Now you need to make a crosswise cut in the center of each circle cut out of felt. Do not cut too much to prevent the felt garment from falling off. Make the cut just enough to fit the circle tightly onto the cone.

5. Start gradually putting circles on the cone. If you are using two colors, then put on the circles sequentially, first one color, then the other. Also worth noting. What to put on the next circle is not only on the cone, but also on top of the tips of the cuts of the previous circle.

6. We decorate the top of the Christmas tree. To do this, simply add tinsel, onto which you will need to add a pre-prepared small felt cone. Secure the tinsel and crown with glue.

* If you wish, you can hide a sweet gift inside the cone.

Creative DIY Christmas tree

If you want something original, or you simply don’t have enough space for a large Christmas tree at home, you can try making such a simple design.

It is worth noting that such a Christmas tree is suitable for any room. It can be done both at home with children and at work.

This tree can rise 1.5-2 meters and takes up almost no space in the house. In addition, it is a good background for New Year's photography.

You will need:

Foam base or matte cardboard

Scissors

Corrugated paper

Masking tape

Adhesive tape

PVA glue

Stationery knife

Marker, optional

1. Lay out foam or cardboard on a flat surface to create a large rectangle (see picture).

2. Use duct tape to connect all the parts.

*This example used black duct tape for better visibility, but white tape is better.

3. Mark the size of your future Christmas tree using masking tape.

4. Using a utility knife, carefully cut out the shape of the future tree.

5. Prepare corrugated paper, fold it in half and cut the fringe. You should have many sheets of fringed paper to cover the entire tree.

6. Begin carefully gluing the corrugated paper to the foam, starting at the base of the tree. The fringe should hang slightly below the base to cover the foam (or cardboard), and also slightly cover the top of the tree trunk, which we will make later.

7. Work your way up to the top, covering the entire tree with a bright green coat of crepe paper.

8. Add a hook to the back of the tree so the tree can be hung. Instead of a hook, you can use double tape to cover the perimeter of the tree.

Good day, friends!

Soon, soon New Year!
He's in a hurry, he's coming!
Knock on our doors:
“Children, hello, I’m coming to see you!”
We are celebrating the holiday
Decorating the Christmas tree
Hanging toys
Balloons, crackers...

This is how I decided to start today’s post in an unusual way. Which will be dedicated to making them at home. After all, we all traditionally love to give them for the New Year. Namely, I suggest making a Christmas tree from what you have on hand. It can be anything, for example, paper, cotton pads, dry twigs, etc. After all, we all dream of surprising our loved ones with something special and unique. Therefore, if you are still thinking about what to give to mom, dad, etc. then you have a ready-made solution).

Of course, every home has a brightly decorated living “forest beauty” on New Year’s days, which flickers and blinks with multi-colored lights. I suggest making a “little friend” so that she doesn’t get bored. And behind one, your decor in the rooms will be transformed, or perhaps you will place it on the holiday table.

In addition, this creative work will bring a lot of positive emotions and will delight children. Moreover, the winter evenings are long, and you can afford to create something beautiful and green).

Although it doesn’t have to be exactly this color, white is also in fashion. The tree will look as if it is covered in snow or frost.

I’ll start with perhaps the most grandiose and magical tree in my opinion. I suggest you look and study these instructions in order to create such a funny and cheerful beauty for yourself or someone else as a souvenir. The work is made of sisal, who does not know this coarse fiber of a tropical plant.

Just a note. A special feature of this craft is the presence of funny legs instead of a stand. And if you remove them, you get topiary, which can be made from any material, for example, coffee beans or thread.

Well, take action by looking at these pictures and detailed descriptions.

We will need:

• green sisal – 25 g
• Kinder Surprise cases
• heat gun
• polystyrene foam
• wire
• green pencil - 2 pcs.
• colored paper
• green threads
• decorative braid
• any decorations such as balls, beads, etc.
• cardboard

Stages:

1. Take the Kinder case and cut off the lid. For the small part, cut off a small section on one side with a semi-oval, so that you can glue it together later.

2. Using a glue gun, glue the two parts together. This is how the boot will turn out, top top.

3. You should end up with two identical shoes. Make a hole in the largest bottle opener. Have you guessed what it is needed for?

4. Now let’s decorate the shoes. To do this, take a red sheet and cut out two strips 19 cm long and 2 cm wide.

5. Glue the longest strip, wrapping it completely around the shoe and giving it the desired shape.

6. Then glue decorative tape along the entire diameter of the sole for a beautiful appearance.

7. Then take your pencils.

8. Poke them into the prepared holes, and add a little glue so that they hold tightly. The legs are almost ready.

9. All that remains is to decorate them with tinsel, do as shown in this photo below.

11. This is what should come out. What does it remind you of already?

12. Now take the wire and insert it into the tip of the cone. Wrap it in sisal too and tie it with thread.

13. The next step is to make a skirt for the stomper. To do this you need to make pounds. Make rectangles of fabric measuring 10 cm x 9 cm, their number should be from 60-80 pieces. depending on the fullness of the skirt.

14. Then start gluing with a hot-melt gun. In this order. Bend the rectangle in half, but along an oblique line. Secure with glue.

16. Then lift the right edge and glue it together.

17. The funnel is ready. It's really a funny name, even a little funny.

18. Then start assembling the Christmas tree. Glue the blanks in a circle.

19. To create a skirt later.

20. Insert the legs into the base.

21. Then use your imagination and get creative, glue on various kinds of decorations.

22. Glue a bow with beads to the top of the spruce and wrap it around the craft.

23. There will also be snowflakes and rhinestones here. Place the resulting masterpiece on a stand. Good luck.

How to make a voluminous Christmas tree out of paper at home

I think that many have ever thought about this question. After all, schools and kindergartens often give assignments on this topic. I suggest making, for example, a silhouette Christmas tree. To do this, take this sample and print it on office colored sheets.

Afterwards, cut out with a stationery knife and glue the blanks together. Use special clamps for this.

You can make a whole forest of such colorful coniferous beauties.

The following work will be completed in 5 minutes. Don't believe me? It couldn’t be simpler; you will need circles of colored double-sided paper and a pencil on a stand. The diameter of the blanks you see below:

1. Fold the circle in half with your hands, so that you get a semicircle.

Do exactly that! Carefully iron the fold with your hands.

2. Now fold the semicircle in half again.

4. And in the same way two more times.

6. And this is what happens. Carefully trim the ends of each piece with scissors.

7. Start assembling the product. Place all the blanks on a stick. From the largest circle to the smallest.

8. The only thing missing is a star or Santa Claus.

I especially found a video for you so that if you need it, you can, in addition to everything else, roll up a grandfather out of paper. A new article will be released soon, in which you will find many works with this hero, but for now, watch the story.

For those who found the first option quite easy and simple, you can take and fold a Christmas tree in origami style; for instructions and description, see below in this film.

Christmas tree made of beads for beginners (diagram inside)

The next creation of nature is wow, cool and at the same time elegant. And such a souvenir will last for more than a dozen years. This is a spruce made of beads. I thought it was impossible to make such a tree myself. But as it turns out, I was wrong. I am sure you will cope with such work with a bang.

We will need:

• green beads – 7 shades
• white beads or transparent
• plate from under the flowerpot
• acrylic paint: white and brown
• wire 0.4 mm
• PVA glue
• ruler
• rod 4 mm and length 2 cm
• tape
• alabaster

1. Place the beads in a cup and mix all the colors. Place beads on the wire in different color sequences and measure 2.5 cm using a ruler. At the same time, leave the edge in the region of 5-7 cm without beads.

2. Make a loop for four circular turns.

3. From the loop, step back 2 cm of wire free and without beads of wire and again count 2.5 cm and make a loop.

4. For the smallest branch, wind 7 loops in this way. Then find the middle and fold it in half and twist the elements together.

5. Thus, you should have this number of branches.

7. Now take the rod and wrap the tape, and then 4 branches with 7 loops to it. The first one is in the center, and the rest are placed below in a circle, twist the stick and wrap it with tape.

6. Next, take 6 branches of 9 loops each. Wrap them in a circle in two tiers of three branches, wind them in a circle. Then step back down about 7 mm and take 5 branches of 11 loops each and wind them in one tier.

7. Retract 7 mm again and wind 6 branches of 11 loops each and again divide them into two tiers. And so on. The final stage is 5 branches of 7 loops.

Rewind the remaining barrel with brown tape. Spread the branches to make the tree lush.

8. Bend the table at 90 degrees and place it in a cup from under the flowerpot. Pour alabaster solution into it and let it dry.

9. Wait until the tree sets; you can also plant any symbol of the New Year. For example, a pig or a rat.

Make a thick solution of PVA glue and alabaster, dip it in a kitchen napkin and glue it to the trunk. To get a natural look.

10. After complete hardening, start painting, but first remove the product from the cup. Paint the trunk brown and the platform white.

11. Decorate with large beads in the form of toys or something else.

Now a few more instructions that I found on the Internet.

But this model is somewhat similar to the first one, maybe someone will like this one more.

And look how lovely it is.

Well, in conclusion, I would like to show one more example of a flat spruce tree, which you can use as a pendant or keychain.

Well, friends have now reached another elegant option, which looks quite bright and elegant. The green beauty turns out beautiful and lush. But first, you must master the kanzashi technique; for this you need to learn how to make special blanks in the form of triangles. Take a look at the diagram, if it is not clear, you will find a more detailed master class on making such things.

4. Place the ornament on the top of the tree. Decorate the souvenir with beads; they will act as a garland.

I came across a more simplified version of the craft in this film, perhaps you will also like it and you and your children will master this technique. Good luck!

Spruce made from cotton pads: a craft for kindergarten children

Now let's get acquainted with a fairly simple craft that you can easily do with your child at home or in kindergarten in class. This option is so easy that it is suitable for any younger or older group.

For creativity, you will need to decorate cotton pads with green gouache. Let them dry completely. Then roll it into a petal and secure it with glue.

Since a Christmas tree is usually made for the New Year, let’s glue the snowdrifts on the blue background sheet first of all. And then arrange and glue the green blanks in the desired sequence in descending order.

You can also get creative and build a snowman or other character. Give free rein to your imagination and the souvenir or postcard will be ready.

It is with these triangular blanks that you can build other options.

The next option, for which you will need the materials you see in this picture. Make a bag out of cardboard, glue the parts with double-sided tape, and make the bottom even.

And then dilute the blue gouache in some water and dip a cotton swab in it. Draw dots along the outline of the disks.

Then glue the round pieces onto the cone, overlapping one on top of the other.

Then decorate the craft to your taste. Winter beauty is ready. What do you think of the idea? The truth is super and fast and cool!

You can go another way: fold each disc in half three times and fasten it with a stapler. Then glue these triangles onto the white cone. And then decorate the Christmas tree with beads and a star.

Or you can also go the other way, make a three-dimensional craft by cutting a cotton pad into four equal parts. See it all for yourself below:

The youngest assistants can be asked to do this kind of work.

Forest beauty made of spruce and pine cones

Of course, not a single New Year's holiday is complete without tangerines and, of course, pine cones. So why not use that too. After all, such natural material is easy to collect in a forest or park, and then sit down and make it.

We will need:

• gun
• scissors
• cardboard
• bumps
• varnish in a can

Stages:

1. Make a cone from a sheet of A4 paper and glue the ends together. Let me remind you how to do this. Draw a circle, and then cut it in half, coat the walls with glue and let dry.

2. After starting to assemble the product, glue the cones to the workpiece in a spiral. So until the product takes on a finished look.

3. Coat with glitter varnish for durability.

4. Cut out a star from a shiny lid or any other material.

5. Decorate the top with it.

You can go another way and make such a forest charm from husks. Also glue a cone out of paper.

For completeness, decorate with beads or other decorations that are typical for this holiday. For example, tinsel and stars.

We continue to decorate our home for the winter holiday. We have already made various ones, hung them on the windows and walls. Now we want to give symbolism to the holiday. And this, of course, is the main princess of the celebration - the Christmas tree. I know that many people feel sorry for the trees and replace them with artificial analogues. But sometimes you just want to make something yourself in order to get satisfaction from the action and an accent in the decor.

All craft ideas are easy to do with your kids. To make the job easier, prepare the basics in advance. And try not to skimp on decor. Buy more different beads, ribbons, ribbons, beautiful buttons. Collect small toys from kinders and decorate with them. And they will go to work and will not wallow.

You can create beauty from everything you have at hand. The main thing is to apply a bit of imagination and all your accuracy to this. With modern devices, such as a glue gun, you can give the product original shapes and fix different textures and materials.

I know that corks from wine bottles and ice cream sticks are also used. Well, we don’t have any traffic jams at home, and the sticks have long been sold out for various needs, so we move on to materials that any housewife will definitely have - pasta and yarn.

Let's start with pasta. I know that they make various snowflakes. It turns out that they are also suitable for a Christmas tree.

We will need:

• A pack of pasta (it's better to take feathers)
• Glue gun
• Sheet of cardboard
• Dye
• Decor

It is better to prefer the “feather” or “spiral” shape. Choose a good manufacturer so that all the pieces are even and the same length.

First of all, we glue a cone out of cardboard. I do this by simply twisting the sheet around my hand. To prevent the workpiece from falling apart, we fasten it with a stapler.

And now we trim the base so that the tree stands straight and not crooked.

We always start from the foundation. The first two rows are “put down”, i.e. Glue them so that they lie on the surface, so the product will be more stable.

And subsequent rows need to be raised exactly on the previous ones by an amount equal to half the “spiral”.

When you finish the top, we begin to cover the entire craft with paint.

You can take green, or you can buy gold or silver paint in a can. Only then you need to spray it not at home.

I really like the result. It doesn’t take much time, but it looks very elegant.

Now it’s the turn of yarn and cord.

To make a Christmas tree out of yarn, you need to wind the threads exactly above each other on a paper cone. Periodically fastening it with hot glue to the base.

Decorate with decor.

This product is made even faster than from pasta.

You can decorate them with buttons.

We will need:

• Wire
• Decor

First we select the wire. It should be tough and not thin. From it we roll up a cone-shaped spiral. We check for stability. The bottom can be wrapped twice.

We begin to string the cord onto the wire.

Dry and decorate.

The glue will give the structure additional strength and will not allow the cord to slide down the frame.

Volumetric Christmas tree made of paper

Paper is always the first thing the word “craft” is associated with. And from it you can create not just one Christmas tree, but an entire spruce forest, in which not a single tree will be the same!

Let's say we want a paper tree to make us happy on the kitchen table. Then you need to make it fluffy and voluminous. And also as stable as possible.

So, I have selected several detailed master classes with a clear description of the process.

Option 1

We will need:

• Cardboard cone
• Green paper in different shades.

We cut out many circles of the same size from paper.

And we begin to glue their edges to the cone, keeping the rows.

The first layer always goes at the base.

This craft is accessible in terms of difficulty level, even for a two-year-old child. And it looks quite rich because of the different shades of the same color.

Option 2. Terry cone herringbone

Cut out 4 semicircles. Each of them is 2 centimeters smaller in diameter than the previous one.

Glue the blanks into a cone and slightly cut the edges around the perimeter to get volume. Fold the terry edges a little.

Now we glue a smaller cone onto the largest piece. And so on downward.

That's the whole simple process.

Option 3. Let's make a spruce out of paper circles

Cut out 4 circles. Each of them is 1 centimeter smaller than the previous one.

Then fold each circle in half 3-4 times.

We also make a base from paper. You can wrap green paper around a pencil or kebab stick.

We string the round blanks onto the trunk in descending order of size.

To give stability, you can place the trunk in plasticine, wax or wine cork.

Option 4

We mark 15 circles, each time reducing the diameter by 1 centimeter. Then we divide each circle into 12 equal parts, drawing lines through the center.

From the center, mark half the radius and draw a circle. Now we cut the lines clearly to the drawn circle.

Glue the ends of each petal together.

When you have completed all the levels, start assembling the Christmas tree from the widest row to the smallest.

How do you like the ideas, I think you will find ideas for yourself.

Crafts from cotton pads for the New Year in kindergarten

Was your child dumbfounded by the task that you need to bring a craft to kindergarten tomorrow? And outside the window, of course, it’s already night. Then you can use a package of cotton pads. In most families they are actively used.

We will need:

• Packaging of cotton pads
• Cardboard for cone base
• PVA glue
• Decor

We roll up the cardboard frame and connect the edges with a stapler.

Take a cotton pad and fold it in half.

Then we place two ends of a cotton semicircle on harmless PVA glue.

And glue the workpiece to the base, having previously smeared its fold with the same PVA glue.

We do this row by row. It is better to glue the cotton pads closer to each other so that there are minimal gaps.

All that remains is to decorate the delicate beauty!

Children in kindergarten will definitely like your product, and they won’t be ashamed in front of other parents.

DIY craft from napkins

Another very affordable material is napkins. You can use the most inexpensive and plain ones.

We take white, red, blue and green holiday shades.

We fold the napkin several times to get a square shape, then we cut the folds and crosswise fasten the middle with a stapler.

Now we bend each layer, forming a pompom.

We lay out the first row on the frame with these balls. Then we glue the balls and other Christmas tree decorations onto double-sided tape.

And fill the entire surface of the frame with napkins.

Everything is pretty fast.

By the way, you can see how to make one from napkins here. It also turns out very beautiful.

Christmas tree made from candies

A craft made from candies would be a wonderful gift: buy a box of good candies in a beautiful package at the grocery store.

It is made of two parts - a base for candy and a barrel.

Glue the base with a side of 23 centimeters. When cutting, make indents along the bottom edge and at one edge of 1 cm. We will apply glue to them.

We decorate with beautiful paper or film. Glue the bottom to its base.

We make a trunk, decorate it and glue it to the frame.

Now we evenly place candies, braid or Christmas tree beads onto the hot glue.

Use the same color scheme for the base and candies.

Making a New Year tree from pine cones

Natural material always adds the right zest to the decor. Your home will immediately smell fresh and resinous. Will give symbolic meaning to this winter holiday.

The cones are also suitable for various crafts.

You can create a Christmas tree from only pine cones, or you can dilute them with sisal balls, decorative flowers or fir branches.
The combination of pine cones and dried citrus fruits also looks unusual.

Glue the pine cones onto the base using hot glue. You don’t have to think about the side you have them on. This will add a slight, mesmerizing carelessness to the product.

We alternate pine cones with Christmas balls or other decor.

Cover with artificial snow or white enamel from a sprayer.

Everything is quite easy, and the result is incredibly beautiful.

Light tinsel Christmas tree

We cannot imagine the New Year without tinsel! There are all sorts of decorations on it now: stars with balls, and multi-colored tips. It is used to decorate windows, curtains, walls and, of course, is used as a material for crafts: wreaths and Christmas trees.

Since most tinsel manufacturers put it on thin wire, it easily lends itself to various bends and shapes.

A spruce tree is made from it in three minutes!

We will need:

• Tinsel
• Sheet of cardboard
• Double-sided tape.

We make a cone-shaped base from cardboard and cover it with double-sided tape.

We remove the protective film from the first row and begin gluing the end of the tinsel, wrapping the frame tightly.

If you don’t have enough tinsel, then glue the end with tape, and put the next fluffy ribbon of the same color on top of it.

Fluffy beauty made of pompoms

Pom-poms have also long been loved by our craftswomen. Previously, we made a dog out of them, but now we will create a fluffy beauty.

The balls themselves can be made in two different ways: by winding 20 layers on a fork or by using two round blanks.

We will go with the second method.

Take cardboard or plastic and cut out two identical rings.

Now, having stepped back 5 centimeters from the edge of the thread, we begin to wind the yarn very tightly.

Then we cut the outer fold between the blanks.

Using the remaining thread tip, we tie the middle of the pompom so as not to lose all the threads.

Now we look for a thick wire and roll it into a spiral. Leave the base wide. We string pompoms onto it.

If the wire is not found, then we use the experience of previous products and form a triangular or conical base.

Felt Christmas tree ideas

Felt is also popular among our craftswomen. It can be used to make educational toys and Christmas tree decorations. Today I will give you a few ideas for creating a spruce tree.

From the simplest options to the complex.

Option 1. Cut out 10 Christmas trees of the same size from felt. Fold in half and glue the fold to the trunk.
We use branches, tree cuts (preferably spruce or pine).

Option 2. Cut out many identical triangles from felt.

We glue them to the frame in rows. The top triangle fits between the two bottom ones!

Option 3. Prepare 5 squares of different sizes: 9 cm, 7 cm, 5 cm, 3 cm, 1 cm.

We make five of each size.

Now we string the largest squares onto the thick one, distributing them diagonally to each other so that there are no voids.

We pass all the squares like this.

New Year's beauty made of fabric

And two more ideas for fabric beauties. The ends can be finished with a decorative stitch using a thick contrasting thread. Sew buttons or beads onto symbolic branches.

Use several fabric colors and textures. For example, take velvet on one side and linen fabric on the other.

You can also choose different designs in the same color scheme or, on the contrary, play with companion colors.

You can fill the Christmas tree with holofiber, padding polyester, or pieces left over from your creativity.

If the product is small, fill it with cotton wool.

My dears, I tried to select for you the most interesting and accessible materials for creativity. I would really like to know your opinion in the comments!
