Pleasant New Year's chores are one of the most wonderful components winter holiday. Among these chores, there is always decoration of the house and the New Year tree.
Toys, garlands and other decorations can be bought at the store. Well, if you have a desire and a small amount of time, then you can take up self-production original and amazing jewelry. For example, make a Christmas ball out of colored paper.
DIY Christmas balls made of colored paper
Multicolored volumetric ball will decorate not only the Christmas tree, but also walls, doors and windows.
To make this craft you will need:
The paper ball in the photo above is made of paper of several colors (blue, cyan and orange). You can make a two-color ball or a single color.
For the ball we will need to cut out circles from paper. Well, to cut them out, we will first draw them.
To draw a circle, you can use a compass. But it is not always at hand. Therefore, we take an ordinary glass or shot glass suitable size, turn it over, put it on paper and trace it with a pencil. Draw as many circles as will fit on the sheet. For each ball you need 12 circles. If you are planning to make a 2-color ball, then take an equal number of 6 circles of each color. If 3-color - 4 circles.
After you have drawn the circles on paper, you need to cut them out. If you want to make not one, but several balls, you can fold a few more under the first sheet and cut out a stack of circles at once. This will save time on making crafts.
Take a circle and bend it in half. We do this with all twelve mugs, then stack them in a certain order. If 3 colors of paper are used (1,2 and 3), then the sequence will be: 122331122331. The sequence when using paper of 2 shades (1 and 2): 122112211221.
Perhaps the most difficult stage. If you are making a ball for the first time, you will have to tinker. You need to carefully wrap the thin wire along the fold line, trying not to crumple the structure. This way we will fasten the circles. More modern way– fasten the mugs with a stapler at the fold.
You need to carefully straighten the halves of the circles of the resulting structure, and then start gluing them together. Each half is glued to one adjacent half from below, and to another adjacent half at the top.
Let’s not forget to glue a rope loop to one of the halves of the circle, with which you can hang our ball on the Christmas tree or in any other place you wish.
There are a huge variety of paper crafts, and one of the simplest, most interesting and educational is a ball. Making this figure is easy and at the same time exciting. It's amazing how out of the ordinary flat paper a three-dimensional figure is obtained. There are several ways and we will tell you about the most basic ones.
"Paper ball of circles"
Instructions:
For this origami you will need colored paper, and it must be double-sided. Take 3 of your favorite colors.
Now cut out four circles on each sheet.
Thus, it turns out that you have a dozen colored circles.
Fold them in half one by one and put them inside each other, then simply straighten them out.
Secure the middle with a stapler.
Carefully straighten everything out, you should get a fairly voluminous figure.
Glue the leaves together using the method shown in the image and you will get a real ball!
Another variation of this method is to avoid stacking the circles. Regular sequential gluing will also help create a three-dimensional ball. If you take sheets not of plain paper, but of patterned paper, you will get an amazingly beautiful ball.
There is another way to make a ball out of paper. Prepare 8 large circles and one small one. Fold the large ones in half, and then again. The folded circles must be glued to the small one, as in the picture below, and another ball is ready.
Cut colored strips of equal length.
Make a ring and secure with glue or a paper clip.
Form a second ring perpendicular to the first.
Secure all remaining strips in the same way.
Now the ball is ready, all you have to do is add the decoration and you can hang it on the Christmas tree!

Fill the balloon with air until it is round.
Shred the newspaper.
Cover the ball with pieces of newspaper in 2-3 layers, missing the tail. The last layer must be made from sheets of plain white paper.
Leave to dry.
Use a needle to carefully pierce the ball and remove its parts.

This two-color ball can be used for room decoration or as Christmas tree toy. Colors can be very different.
We will make a ball out of white and blue paper.
Take an A4 sheet of paper and fold it in half three times.
Then take a compass or a round object of a suitable size and draw a circle.
Cut it out.
Fold the finished circles in half twice.
Apply hot glue in the middle with a thin line and glue it together.
If not glue gun, you can use double-sided tape.
In the same way we glue all the circles together.
We connect the outer circles together, forming half of our paper ball.
First we attach one half of the ball, then the second.
It is better to fix it with hot glue.
Our paper ball is ready!
Such paper balls will decorate the interior and serve as an excellent decorative element.
To make voluminous paper balls you will need:
Take from 5 to 10 paper napkins, the more layers, the larger the volume and size of the final ball, but the labor intensity of the work increases.
We stack the napkins on top of each other. Take a round stencil. It can be either paper, which will need to be outlined with a pencil, or plastic or glass.
A solid stencil can be pressed tightly onto the paper and pressed firmly on it.
The napkins will leave a clear imprint on which you can cut out circles without even using a pencil.
Cut out a circle using scissors. It is convenient to cut out all the layers of napkins at once, pressing them tightly together.
Secure the middle of the circles with a stapler - just one paperclip is enough.
Make cuts along the edge of the circle, going towards the center, no more than 2-3 cm.
We bend the napkin layer by layer to give it volume. Each “ray” can also be slightly bent.
The layers are divided into two parts - one part is bent in one direction, the other in the other. Ultimately it turns out volumetric balls, which can decorate any room.
The ball can be made from more thick paper than a napkin. They can be given shine or color using colored paper, paint or glitter varnish.
The thread can be attached to a metal clip, which is located in the center of the ball. You can hang one ball or combine them into a garland.
The ball looks like a gorgeous blooming aster bud. This craft is suitable for any holiday: New Year, March 8, and even on May days.
You can choose any color of paper that you like best. The ball can be either monochromatic or multi-colored - like fireworks splashes. The best choice is not to be lazy and make several pieces. For clarity, let’s make one side of the craft monochromatic and the other multi-colored. So that it becomes immediately clear which option to choose.
To work you will need:
We draw colored sheets with a simple pencil. We make squares with sides of 6.5 cm - this is the optimal and most economical option for the sheet so that there are no extra pieces left. The sides of the square can be made either smaller or larger, then the size of the ball will change accordingly.
Drawing with a compass on a sheet white cardboard two identical circles with a diameter of 13 cm or a radius of 6.5 cm. Cut out the resulting circles.
When all the sheets of colored paper are lined, cut out the resulting squares.
Now we roll each square diagonally to make a little bag, having first coated one side with glue. It is best to use liquid PVA glue. milky, it dries faster and holds tighter. We turn all the squares into bags.
Take a circle made of white cardboard. On one side we glue plain bags in a circle, with the long side down. Cover the entire surface of the cardboard. On bottom row glue the next one and so on until the end, until you get a hat.
On the next circle we glue multi-colored bags. There are two options: either in a chaotic order, or make each row the same color. From darker tones to lighter ones, like the cup of a bud.
As a result, you will get two hats from the bags.
Take a piece of tape and cut the length as desired. The longer the piece, the longer the loop of the ball will be.
Glue the ends of the loop to back side one of the hats. Glue both free sides hats together. This is how you get a ball made of paper with your own hands. Since both sides of the ball are quite heavy, you need to wait a few minutes for them to stick to each other more firmly.
To make the wonderful ball even brighter and unique, decorate it with sparkles. A colorless varnish is best suited for this; unlike glue, it will not leave marks. Apply a thin layer of varnish to the ends of the ball and sprinkle glitter on top. Let the ball dry completely.
Now this work of art would look appropriate on a Christmas tree or simply as a room decoration.
You can make a hanging paper ball from regular office paper, even used paper. A few scraps of old rain, and the decoration will sparkle in the rays of electric bulbs.
Materials for production big ball from paper:
A4 office paper – 6 sheets;
glue;
rain;
decorative tape;
scissors.
Fold each sheet of paper in half (crosswise). Draw a circle on each half. Let's make it maximum size what paper allows. To do this, you can use a compass or simply trace something round with a pencil.
Cut out circles from each sheet of paper. We draw the diameter. We make a cut along the radius.
Fold half of the circle into a “ball”. We fix it with glue. You can put the paperclip on before the glue dries.
We also roll the second half of the circle into a cone. Glue and secure with a paper clip.
When the pieces are dry, we begin gluing them together.
Gradually form a ball.
Cut the rain into small pieces.
We lubricate each one with glue and place it inside the elements of the paper ball.
When everything is well dry, make a hole in any of the paper cones.
We thread it through decorative tape. We tie the ends with a knot.
We hang the finished ball. This way you can quickly and easily decorate your office.
Such balls are made using the kusdam technique by folding paper modules and gluing them together.
