OPTION 2

Very original Christmas tree you can make it with your own hands from pine cones. But we will not use the whole cones, but will use only their scales so that the tree is not too bulky.

So, first, let's separate its scales from the cone. This can be done sharp knife, nippers or pruning shears.

3.

The next step from thick paper or cardboard we will make a cone, which will be the base of our Christmas tree. We roll the paper into a cone, glue it on the sides and cut off the excess at the base.



Then we simply take the scales in our hands and glue them in a circle, starting from the base of the cone.

You can glue each new row in a checkerboard pattern, or, like here, on top of each other.

You can glue a spice like cloves to the very top of your head)

After the glue has dried, you can start painting our beauty. To do this, you can use spray paint or regular paint. acrylic paint. If you choose acrylic paint with a metallic effect, your Christmas tree will look much more impressive.

Then we cover the ends of the “twigs” with PVA glue and sprinkle glitter on them.

Using exactly the same principle, you can decorate the cone with chains and beads, decorative cords, ribbons, braid, etc.

Handmade New Year's toys are always something special. They bring warmth and homeliness and are certainly an interesting gift. In addition, they are always original and will undoubtedly attract the attention of all guests.

At the same time, do New Year's toys It’s not at all difficult to do it yourself. Let's start with these Christmas trees :)


To begin, we will cut out blanks for future Christmas trees from thick cardboard (my Christmas trees are 12 cm high and 9 cm wide). I use kraft cardboard for this - it is thick enough to withstand a wide variety of manipulations, and also pleasant to look at.


Option 1. Lace plus paper. Production time 15 minutes.

By using sewing machine Sew cotton lace to the bottom edge of the Christmas tree. In order not to make a mistake with the length of a piece of lace, I first sew it on and then cut it off.


We retreat from the sewn edge a distance of about one and a half times greater than the width of the lace, and sew on the next frill. To prevent the lace from creeping up or down during the sewing process, I make a mark with a pencil where I need to arrive.

In the same way we sew all the frills onto the Christmas tree.


From scrapbooking paper we cut out pieces one and a half times wider than the width of the lace, one of the long edges of which is made into lace using a hole punch or curly scissors.

Carefully glue the strips under the lace, and sew them on a machine if desired.

We make the top like this.


We cut off the excess paper. As a result, we get a Christmas tree like this. You can apply glitter, snow flakes, glue pearls on it - in general, decorate it to your liking.

The reverse looks like this, but that doesn’t bother us for now :), we’ll deal with it a little later.


Variants of the same Christmas tree: instead of paper lace, you can use any ribbons sewn in the same way as lace; or decorative ribbons with roses

Option 2. Lace plus mini buttons. Production time 15 minutes.

We start in the same way as in the first option - sew on the lace.


We wait 1-2 minutes for the glue to “set” a little, after which we glue mini-buttons onto it in a chaotic manner.

In general, I am a big fan of sewn buttons, but in this case my hand trembled :), and I decided to put the needle and thread aside and use a simpler and faster method.

Other variations on the same theme: instead of mini-buttons - any ordinary buttons or rhinestones or pearls or small paper roses.

OPTION 6

From tinsel

OPTION 7

A simpler version of a Christmas tree made from ribbons is to simply attach a ribbon folded in half to the base. Moreover, you can attach it as satin ribbons, and paper (paper for scrapbooking).

OPTION 8

OPTION 9

New Year is not only about gifts and lots of goodies. On the eve of the holiday, you can give your child the joy of creativity and self-expression. Admiring an already “decorated” Christmas tree is, of course, great, but it’s much more interesting to make decorations with my own hands and watch how the house gradually turns into a fabulous one New Year's forest! What would a forest be like without a Christmas tree? We invite you to make an amazing New Year tree , which will be an excellent holiday decoration for your home.

To work we need a tight green paper, glue, scissors, round wooden stick and bead.

1. Cut out 3-4 circles of different diameters from thick green paper. We fold each circle in half four times and draw it along the fold line several times with a hard object. Using scissors, cut a small piece from the top of each folded circle.

2. Take wooden stick and put the most on it small circle. The tip of the stick should protrude no more than 5 mm. Carefully place the remaining circles through the bottom of the stick. A hole in the top of his head great circle Lubricate with glue and attach the circle to the stick with glue. This is how we fix our entire structure.

3. Now our Christmas tree can be attached to the base. For example, a wine cork. We put a bead on the top of the Christmas tree, where we left a gap of 5 mm. Our Christmas tree is ready!

DIY New Year's toy - “coffee tree”


It often happens that the holidays are just around the corner, but you still aren’t in a festive mood. And I really want, like in childhood, to wait for the arrival of the New Year, miracles, gifts and the fulfillment of desires. From my own experience, I can say that mood is born from little things and often comes in the creative process. To feel the coming holidays, you can decorate your apartment for the New Year, start cooking or making something special. For example, a fragrant Christmas tree made of fabric and coffee. Why not? Moreover, you need few materials for this wonderful New Year tree.

Materials for creation coffee tree with your own hands:
sheet of cardboard small jar, for example, from under baby food coffee beans a small piece of fabric or burlap varnish (you can do without coating) Almost everyone also has the tools necessary for the work.

Tools for making a Christmas tree from coffee beans and fabric:
tweezers compasses glue (it is very convenient to use a hot glue gun) brush scissors needle and thread We do not indicate the sizes and quantities, since it all depends on what materials you use, as well as on the expected size of the Christmas tree. The process of creating this tree is simple and exciting. You can turn on your favorite one in the background New Year's film, and you will immediately feel that the New Year is very close, and miracles are knocking on your doors.

Making a coffee tree with your own hands
We make a cone from cardboard or thick paper. If you need a larger Christmas tree, you can use leftover wallpaper for the base. We glue the cone well around the edges. We put it on the table, check that it should be stable and tight.

We select a suitable size jar with a screw-on lid for the base.


Glue coffee beans onto the jar. The grains need to be glued on the same side, so the jar will look neater. It is convenient to take the grains with tweezers to protect your fingers from glue and burns (if you use a hot glue gun).


When the coffee beans are securely attached to the can, we proceed to the second layer, which we use to close any possible cracks and gaps between the beans.


The result should be a jar that looks like it consists of coffee beans. Only the neck is not covered so that the jar can be closed with a lid. The grains on the jar can be varnished. Then the leg of the tree will be smoother and glossier, but this will reduce the coffee aroma.


Let's get to the Christmas tree itself. If the size of the Christmas tree is large, and the frame (cardboard cone) does not seem rigid and stable enough, then it can be strengthened by simply filling it with something from the inside. This could be paper, napkins, fabric, etc. We cut the fabric or burlap for the external decoration of the Christmas tree to the size of the cone.


Glue the fabric to the cone, stretching and smoothing it.


Cover the bottom with a circle of cardboard.


We also cover the circle with cloth.


We will decorate the Christmas tree with patches. To do this, cut out identical small squares from fabric.


We remove several threads along the edges of the squares to form a neat fringe.



We glue the patches to the fabric on the cone. Glue coffee beans to the corners of each patch. This way we decorate the entire cone.

8.



Now that the cone and jar are ready, let's move on to the lid of the jar. It must be decorated and glued to the bottom of the cone. If desired, it can be decorated with coffee beans (gluing the edges with them) or fabric (we will dwell on this method in more detail). Cut a thin strip from the fabric. Using a needle and thread, we form equal folds on a strip of fabric, and then glue the fabric to the lid.


All that's left is to glue the lid to the bottom of the cone.



New Year's decoration is ready! It can also serve a nice gift, both on its own and as a jar of coffee. Christmas decoration Festive mood and miracles to you!

New Year's crafts for kindergarten for the Christmas tree

Christmas tree decorations are the very first thing that comes to mind when we're talking about about crafts for the New Year.

New Year's ones are easy to make and funny. To turn an ordinary light bulb into a snowman, Santa Claus, penguin or gnome, you need to prime it (with a special primer or PVA glue), apply a layer of base paint and a drawing (use acrylic paint or gouache - the latter will have to be varnished). For decoration, use felt, lace, eyes for toys, decorative flowers, etc.

From scrap materials: leftover yarn and felt, wire, beads - you can make such a funny snowman for the Christmas tree. The whole process is shown in detail in the illustrations:

You can hang bright white and red Christmas “candies” on the branches of a spruce tree. Making them is not at all difficult: you need to alternately string white and red beads onto the chenille and bend it.

Do-it-yourself Christmas crafts for kindergarten are very popular. foam balls. Buy such a ball - and the basis for your future Christmas tree decoration is ready. You can use pins to attach beads, sequins, buttons, and flowers to such a ball.

If you cut a triangle out of cardboard and wrap it with acrylic threads, you will get bright Christmas tree, which can be hung on the Christmas tree. You can make stars and balls in the same way.

It's very easy to make a Christmas tree decoration using popsicle sticks. Glue the sticks into a triangle, decorate it, glue the stem-leg, decorate bright decor and attach the pendant. What could be simpler?

Christmas tree for decoration New Year's tree can be cut out of thick felt and decorated with buttons.

New Year's crafts for kindergarten from pine cones

Cones - popular natural material for making crafts, including for the New Year.

Just paint the pine cone and place it on a stand - and now a small Christmas tree is ready to decorate a table or shelf.

The cone can be decorated with small pompoms and hung on the Christmas tree - it will be a wonderful alternative to traditional balls.

And, of course, you can make all kinds of figurines of animals and fairy-tale creatures from pine cones. For example, gnomes:

New Year's wreaths

Wreath on the door or on the wall - traditional decoration for many holidays. Natural New Year's door wreaths look gorgeous spruce branches, decorated with gold cones. Can you do it with preschoolers? New Year's craft simpler for kindergarten.

For example, take a sheet of double-sided colored paper, fold it in half and make cuts, not reaching the end by about 2 cm. Roll the sheet first into a tube and then into a ring, securing the ends with a stapler. Decorate with a paper bow.

A bright and simple wreath can be made from disposable plastic plate and pom-poms. Cut out the bottom of the plate, paint the plate with acrylic or gouache paint, decorate with pom-poms and bows.

About Active Mom already wrote, you can make a wreath on the door in the same way.

An original, stylish and simplest wreath can be made from clothespins. You can buy plastic green clothespins or paint them green color wooden clothespins. Alternately string clothespins and large red beads onto the wire, form a circle from the wire, and decorate with a ribbon bow.

An analogue to a door or wall wreath can be a homemade clock made from disposable plates. Numbers and arrows can be cut out of cardboard, paper or felt, or molded from hardening plasticine. Decorate the watch with ribbons, chenille, and a star indicating the coming year.

Hello, dear readers! On New Year's Eve, an incredible amount of all kinds of New Year's decorations appear on store shelves: Christmas tree decorations, tinsel, rain, bright garlands, firecrackers, artificial and live Christmas trees, etc. Speaking of Christmas trees, nowadays manufacturers offer consumers a really wide selection of Christmas trees: tall, small, tabletop, floor, lush, elegant, white, green, multi-colored... From which we can conclude that anyone can easily choose exactly the right model of Christmas tree, which, in his opinion, will most successfully fit into the interior of a house or apartment. But today’s article is not dedicated to factory-made, stamped Christmas trees, but to exclusive Christmas trees made with your own hands!

DIY Christmas trees.

For the manufacture of decorative Christmas tree, you can safely use almost any material: rhinestones, Christmas balls, threads, beads, wine corks, coffee and other beans, paper, buttons, wire, pine cones, tree leaves, feathers, pieces of fabric, ribbons, pasta and much more!

We have decided on the materials, but how to form the basis of the future Christmas tree? You can apply in the following ways:

  1. Select a cone-shaped bottle onto which to subsequently glue the necessary parts.

2. Buy a ready-made foam cone - sold in the “Everything for creativity and handicraft” departments.

3. Make it from a sheet of paper.

Let's look at the last point in a little more detail...

First way: We take a sheet of whatman paper, draw a circle, cut it out, then on this circle we mark a sector in the form of a triangle with a pencil, cut it off, and from the remaining part we form a cone, gluing the side part with tape or glue.

Second way: take whatman paper, draw a circle, measure out the fourth part of the circle - a triangle (see photo), cut out this part and form a cone.

So, having selected or made the most suitable cone, we proceed directly to the decorative part...
