Do-it-yourself Santa Claus sleigh made of cardboard using the quilling technique. Christmas decorations

Original

Friends, meet a new fabulous creation from Natalia Shleret!In his previous works, Natalia suggested ideas on how to present new year surprises, packing them in wonderful painted boxes . But after all, Grandfather Frost or Nikolaus from Germany also needs to somehow deliver gifts to the children, and make it festive and magical. There is a solution, and it is known - a reindeer team. How to make this wonderful transport out of paper, and make it with the children, you will now find out.

Decorative paper composition "Magic Sleigh"

Do you know Dear friends When exactly do the kids get presents from Nikolaus? It takes place on December 6th. Saint Nicholas arrives on a patterned sleigh and spreads what he wants, what he has imagined.

At Christmas, gifts are given from relatives and friends. And, perhaps, something special that did not have time to guess from the Wizard with a white beard.

Northern oleshki are harnessed to the sleigh.

Knowing some historical facts related to the northern regions, I will undertake to assert that in Veliky Ustyug (the residence of Father Frost) they did not ride horses before. Reindeer were the most common means of transport.

So I decided to show you how decorative composition with these sleds. I am sure that it can be done together with the children, as it is interesting and not difficult.

The size of the sleigh and, accordingly, the oleshek, as well as the number of them, you will determine yourself. I've taken enough small size of the possible.

Here it is, the very beginning. The templates are printed on two sheets of A4 format: 4 deer fit on one, and sledge templates on half of the second.

And these are the templates:

1. Paper sleigh.

I did them in this order: first the runners, then the sledges.

I cut out the runners, having previously punched the folds, looked at how they would fold.

After that, I painted the part black, assembled and glued it together.

It doesn't matter where exactly the snow and star fog settled on the sleigh - whether in the sky, on the ground or from the wind, but there must be snow!

Now you can do the wagon-sled itself!

Painted template red.

And now I'll show you a little magic!

There is such a possibility of decor as applying sweat. Probably, you have seen rich nesting dolls with golden kokoshniks? So, this was done with the help of sweat.

Potal is sold in shops with goods for artists with a footage.

Glue for gilding is needed for it (mordan is also called it). Such glue can also be bought where everything for modeling from Fimo clay is available.

There is a way to perform such a decorative technique using PVA glue. This so-called hot way: PVA glue is applied to the drawing, it is allowed to dry, then an eraser is heated on the sole of the iron, and the potal is pressed against the glue with such a heated rubber. Then the shiny coating remains in the drawing, and in the hands - a film.

But this method is not always convenient. For example, if there is still no skill, then the potal may remain around the drawing.

With glue for sweating (mordan), everything is much simpler - they applied it with a brush to the pattern, let it dry, and then pressed the sweat with its matte side to the glue.

And a fabulous pattern appears.

And on a magic sleigh, you need a fabulously frosty pattern!

(A similar effect can be achieved with the contours of who owns them, and the application of a gel with glitters. The choice is up to you, according to the availability of materials at home and skills.)

Of course, the sleds themselves are also a little covered in snow.

Magic transport is ready! Waiting to be loaded with gifts to please the kids.

2. Paper deer.

Well, what about the deer? I confess, I planned to make them completely in accordance with the templates. But as soon as I cut out the first deer with such numerous small details-notches, and even these strips with the names “side one” and “side two”, and even taking into account the small sizes that I set myself for printing, ... something I got bored at once. I thought kids couldn't do that.

And from these thoughts, my oleshki immediately lost weight dramatically and became just flat. And from one deer magically two appeared!

(Of course, if you are very patient and choose big size printouts, you can try to make the animals voluminous in their original form.)

Additionally, I cut out the antlers for the second deer. And I began to think about how to make the deer able to stand.

Initially, unplanned details appeared - strips of paper, which were supposed to be glued to the legs on both sides and thus install the oleshka.

But I came to the conclusion that this will not be enough. A deer with decor will be too heavy.

And then was born new idea turned out to be very successful.

So far, nothing complicated: paint the animal in deer colors and decorate with stars and star dust.

They are very magical - they fly under the stars and under the northern lights, so they have gained such a brilliance - an unusual starry twinkling and play of radiance at the pole.

And the idea is this: set the whole composition on a piece from a sheet of foam. He himself is white, imagine that it is an ice floe or a snowy plain.

It is necessary to make shallow cuts in the surface according to the size of the legs, strengthen the legs in these slots and fix with glue.

You can add a soft wrinkled napkin in small pieces to show the snowdrifts. Again, I limited myself to cotton wool, covering the uneven edges of the foam with it.

Cotton wool, like on a sleigh, is glued to ordinary glue.

Therefore, the reins are just a woolen thread.

There is also a gift box template on the template sheets. You can make several of these boxes, decorate them, load them into a sleigh and send them to the kids.

Well, here's what I got...

There are already sleighs loaded with gifts, deer in stardust and twinkles are patiently waiting for Grandpa Nikolaus.

Where is he? Perhaps he went to give his assistants important instructions?

Or did you want to drink a hot drink before the road?

Or maybe you haven’t taken all the gifts with you yet?

It is likely that he is already laying out surprises for the children under the spruce.

Be that as it may, the sleigh will soon set off on its fabulous journey, bringing a lot of joy.

Let's believe in the Miracle and make the best wishes!

Handmade sleds are not sold in stores. A do-it-yourself sled will be powerful and able to withstand loads. But it is also easy to do it yourself. You can decorate your festive table wonderful original candy bowl in the form of Santa Claus Sleigh. Purchased sleds are not very durable, because. made of aluminum corner and under heavy loads immediately bend.

For such New Year's sleigh you can put an origami box with a surprise and in this form make a gift to your friends! We offer interesting idea packaging of New Year's gifts - Santa Claus's sleigh. There are other master classes for you to create [ New Year's crafts. On thick cardboard, draw the outline of the sleigh and cut out 2 copies.

DIY crafts

We glue the sled on each side. Of more thin cardboard cut out a long rectangle. We bend the indent for glue on both sides and glue it as shown in the picture. We cut out a long thin strip of synthetic winterizer (you can take cotton wool or a decorative rope) and glue it along the edge of the sleigh to close the cardboard.

We wait until the sleigh is dry and fill it with sweets. We suggest you make a very beautiful New Year's decor: miniature sleigh pulled by reindeer. This decor is made of cardboard and paper. Our sleds are made in vintage style using the technique of artificial aging of paper.

Cut out cardboard and paper blanks for sleds and deer according to your templates. Cut out of cardboard and decorate the stand for the composition in the same style as the whole work and glue the composition on the stand. We admire the result) Such a sleigh with deer can be presented as a gift to your friends. We also give you options for the execution of such a composition in a different color and stylistic solution.

A beautiful, stately and spectacular Christmas tree is a necessary attribute of the New Year celebration, and in order for the Christmas tree to impress with its splendor, it must be decorated accordingly. We take thick paper two shades - white and red. We cut out all the components of the sled, and paint them with silver spray paint.

We put the bag of Santa Claus in the sleigh and admire the result. So we have achieved the volume, our key has acquired the necessary thickness and the effect of antiquity, we paint it with gold paint from a spray can. Dear readers, today you learned how to make Christmas decorations from paper, I hope you liked the ideas presented!

I am shocked, the star is very beautiful, this year I will make a lot of such stars, paint them with gold paint, and hang only them and garlands on the Christmas tree (I'm tired of purchased decorations). Below are two options for creating postcards for the New Year - a 3D postcard and a clamshell postcard.

This paper reindeer Christmas sleigh is made from the simplest materials at hand. Here are the first New Year's crafts! This work was done with imagination, you have got an elegant horse - a symbol of the coming year, and interesting sleds - everything is simple, accessible and understandable.

The materials presented on the pages of our site are created by the authors of the site, sent by users, taken from open sources and presented on the site for informational purposes only. With the approach new year holidays not only children, but also adults are waiting for miracles and gifts.

Let's start making sleds with our own hands

In addition, Santa Claus's sleigh can be an original idea for gift wrapping or a stand for sweets and fruits. They are easy to make and take very little time to make. You can make such a craft with your child, he will be delighted with New Year's preparations and spending time together.

Paper star.

Some of them are suitable for children. younger age, but there are also those that can be offered to older children. To create crafts, the following materials and tools are useful: multi-colored thick cardboard, foil, scissors, paint, glue and various decorative elements. First you need to cut out the details from which the child will later collect Santa Claus's sleigh. From it you just need to cut out two parts in the shape of the sidewalls, only a little smaller, and glue them to the base on the sides. You can decorate the sled with paints, stickers in the form of snowflakes, etc.

First you need to find a suitable template, circle it on cardboard and cut out two parts. One of the copies should be glued corrugated paper and cut off the excess along the contour. The next step is to cut the bottom of the sled. A rectangle of the desired width is cut out of cardboard, adding a centimeter on each side for indentation. Two strips should be cut out of the synthetic winterizer and glued on the sides, imitating snow and covering the non-glued edges of the cardboard.

This small gift from sweets any child will like. Following the instructions, Santa's sweet sleigh can be made quickly and without special problems. To make the sleigh neat and beautiful, you need to pick up sweets of the same size, while the wrappers should be bright and varied.

Santa's sleigh is original idea for New Year's sweets and souvenirs. She can also be great. New Year's gift for your friends or loved ones.

Old paper key.

A4 and transfer it to cardboard. 2. We cut out the base for the sled from the same cardboard (in the archive - file 2) Here we already have to draw it ourselves - I indicated all the dimensions in the figure. You need to be as careful and careful as possible. And of course, we, creative fidgets, will not pass by snowdrops and make our own basket for snowdrops and the snowdrops themselves from sweets.

The part is bent, divided into three parts: the base of the sled and two backs (small and large). Toy Snow Maiden and Santa Claus can be seated not just under Christmas tree, and in a sledge made of cardboard.

Winter always comes unexpectedly, even if you are really looking forward to it: one morning, waking up and looking out the window, we will see the long-awaited snow, which so beckons the kids to frolic! Yes, and adults are usually not averse to having fun with a couple of snowballs, breathing in pure pleasure with pleasure. frosty air and squinting at the sparkling white, still untouched snow cover.

It will not be a mistake to say that the main attribute of winter children's (and often adults') games are sleds.

Not to do without sleds and parents who have to carry the kids to kindergarten; an important help in the household - sleds, adapted solutions for various tasks. As a rule, any sled can be bought in a retail or online store: the choice of models is huge, price range very wide, the range of used materials and colors is also, as they say, for every taste. But what if you are a creative person, and artisan hands miss the tools? Of course, get down to business! And the money saved, the feeling of satisfaction with the result and the pride of the child for his father, who “can do anything!” Will be a well-deserved reward.

So, before you get down to business, you should choose the type of sled, think over their design and device, and also decide on the materials. Let's be honest, you can assemble a sled on your own (“on your knee”) classical type
or Finnish sleds, which are distinguished by the presence in the front of the seat with a back and elongated runners with small anti-slip foot platforms.

As an option, you can consider a snow scooter with a front turning ski and a steering wheel, but this is somewhat beyond the scope of this article and, in the strict sense, they are not sleds.

The design and arrangement of children's sleds can be very diverse - from simple, aimed at solving strictly utilitarian tasks, to carved, using openwork elements and parts made of bent wood, usually in a pseudo-traditional style. It will not be a secret that everyone House master chooses a design according to its capabilities and technical skills, often starting from the materials available.

There is no need to talk much about the materials for making homemade sleds: first of all, it is, of course, wood. Experienced craftsmen it is advised to use the wood of resinous conifers as more resistant to external influence(cold, moisture), special impregnation and painting often saves the situation. Multilayer plywood is also often used as one of the most available materials, however, active skating gives the prerequisites to believe that the next season will again have to start with the manufacture of the next sled. You can give free rein to your imagination by using thick tree branches for our purposes, large and durable parts of the rhizome of a suitable configuration and modified accordingly.

Frequently related materials:

  • metal strips for finishing skids and extending their "life" in conditions of intensive use on different surfaces(snow, ice, areas of frozen ground or even asphalt),
  • leather or leatherette for upholstery of a soft seat, if available in the design (fabrics are not suitable for this purpose due to their wetness and low wear resistance),
  • foam rubber or other suitable materials to provide softness to the aforementioned seat.

An exotic material for the manufacture of sledges can be considered PVC pipes of different diameters, which are used in the arrangement of apartment water supply. Nevertheless, it is the exoticism, as well as the availability and relative cheapness of this material, that are so fond of many craftsmen who have a special device for soldering (welding) such pipes. And the use of a variety of connecting elements allows you to build the required configuration (numerous tables, chairs, armchairs, racks, etc. an example of this). Not bad plastic frame combined with other materials - the seat is usually wooden, with leather covering.


In conclusion, I would like to remind you that there is nothing impossible in this world for a passionate person who strives to make his life and the life of loved ones more comfortable and interesting. Therefore, try, boldly take up the tools and be proud of your little masterpiece!

Here are some DIY sled ideas:

















    From cardboard box you can easily and quickly make a sled. The technology is something like this:

    • with a felt-tip pen, we outline the outline of our future sleigh on the box and carefully cut off all unnecessary
    • inside and outside we paste over the box with tissue paper, our task is to give it holiday look, because, in this sleigh, there will certainly be gifts from Santa Claus. If tissue paper is not available, any candy wrappers are perfect.
    • Now let's take a few cocktail tubes and attach them to our sled, they will play the role of runners. Instead of tubes, you can use old pens or pencils. The finished sled looks like this:

    A cardboard sleigh can be a great addition to any New Year's composition. Also, they will just look great under the wardrobe next to Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden. I propose to make a sleigh out of cardboard according to the following drawing:

    In the drawing, dotted lines represent fold lines. And those parts that are cut out separately will be used as a template for manufacturing decorative elements from colored cardboard. For drawing the headboard, I advise you to use a protractor - it is much more convenient and will save time.

    Now run the pen along the ruler along the folds to make it more convenient to bend.

    Now cut out two bottoms. White must be glued on the outside. But we glue the blue from the inside. We glue the base for the sleigh, and glue the headboard slightly tilted back.

    Now cut out and glue the multi-colored sidewalls, the front part inside and out, the headboard. In order to later close the ends of the ribbons, we leave the outer part of the headboard not re-glued.

    Cardboard sleighs can be made even without glue. Cut out the details of the given pattern from cardboard and assemble the sled by inserting the details into the grooves.

    Here is another pattern, here you will already have to use glue. Bend the cut parts in the places marked dotted line. If the cardboard is dense, for example, two-layer, you can draw a knife on one side, marking the fold points. Spread the bent parts with glue and attach to the side parts of the sled.

    Another sleigh template, consists of just one part, which needs to be bent along the dotted lines and glued, spreading the painted over with glue. in gray parts.

    As a child, my friends and I made cardboard sleds very quickly. They did not look at all aesthetically pleasing and were not suitable for driving around the city, but they were just right for our purposes (driving descent from the slope).

    Take a box. Break it into two long pieces. Cross them. Take an oilcloth and put it under this impromptu cross. Try to capture it somehow. Then sit down, and rush to meet the icy wind!

    This design does not look like a sled, but it performs its function even better!

    From a cardboard box, a sleigh is quickly and easily made according to a finished sample.

    miniature New Year's sleigh from matchbox. Glue the skids and the sled is ready. Here is what the cardboard craft looks like completely.

    Cardboard sleigh from individual parts according to the template below, the easiest way to make them. We fasten seven parts, as in the picture, decorate and get a ready-made sled for crafts. The second template requires additional paper pasting to glue all the details. BUT the work is also simple and you can make a sled according to the second option.

    You can make a sleigh from a cardboard box according to a template. Make the runners separately or cut according to your idea.

    What is winter without snow and sledding. toy grandfather Frost and the Snow Maiden can be put not just under the Christmas tree, but in cardboard sleds. Your child should like it, but you can make a sled with him too. All sleds are made according to one standard template.

    You also need to have a template for the seat and deer.

    Second step: print out the template, cut it out and fold along the dotted line.

    Skis must be glued and glued to the sled

    Print the seat, cut and fold along the dotted line

    Glue the seat to the sled

    Ready-made sleds can be decorated at your discretion.

    This is what rain is for. artificial snow, sequins, ribbons, etc.

    It is very easy to make a cardboard sleigh, for this we need thick cardboard, scissors, glue, paints and various decorations(sequins, beads, half beads, rhinestones, remnants of lace, etc.)

    In such a sleigh, you can give a sweet treat, self-baked cookies or purchased sweets.

    We transfer the scheme to a piece of thick cardboard, if there is nowhere to buy it, then cardboard from any box will do.

    If you are confident with a pencil, then I suggest cutting out a couple more deer from cardboard for the sleigh.

    We cut our sleigh out of cardboard. Glue with a moment of crystal or pva glue. And we decorate. It turns out very beautiful and elegant. A wonderful addition to a New Year or Christmas gift.

Sledge, snowman and Christmas tree made of jute and coffee beans. wonderful New Year's composition made by craftswoman ALLA (April 4ik) and published on the Land of Masters. Snowman, sledge and Christmas tree are decorated with jute and coffee beans. And in the sleigh there are still tangerines, cones, gifts ... Many thanks to the author for the idea and the master class!

Sledge, snowman and Christmas tree made of jute and coffee beans








To decorate the top of the sleigh, I crocheted a chain of twine from air loops.

The sides of the sleigh were decorated with twine bows and coffee beans. The inside of the basket was lined with burlap. The sled turned out to be deep, so I put foil balls tied with twine on the bottom). I don’t throw out the foil from chocolate bars, but roll it into balls, which I then use in crafts.

E lochka - blown out cone from a notebook cover mounting foam(the blank remained from the last NG). I specially took the covers of a dark color, so as not to paint later.

I pasted over the coffee cone, alternating with twine. Christmas tree should be with toys. We decorate our Christmas tree with orange peel figurines tied with twine bows.
For reference: orange peel figurines dry out on a central heating battery in a day. If the figures are already dried, but without holes, it does not matter, the holes are easily made by hand with a thin drill.

Now let's start making a snowman. For the body, I wound a ball of paper the size of a tennis ball (no photo), wrapped it with threads, and then with foil, the head was a ping pong ball, and the hands were two foil balls. Halves of toothpicks are glued into the balls for the head and hands.

Now we wrap our blanks with twine. Insert toothpicks into the holes for the hands.

We begin to wrap the head from below, so that later, when collecting the Snowman, the coils of the torso and head are even

We assemble the Snowman, grease the bottom of the balls for the head and hands with glue

Let's start making the hat. We take the smaller half of the container from Kinder Surprise and a piece foam tray. I advise you to initially cut a hole, and then just cut out the ring itself. Originally cut in reverse order, the ring burst

We glue the ring to the container, the hat is ready. Coat the workpiece with PVA glue and sprinkle with ground coffee. You can just paint the hat acrylic paint. Snowman's nose alder cone, eyes - millet seeds (or draw with a marker). The mouth was drawn with a marker. For a scarf, we crochet a chain of air loops, decorate the ends of the scarf with coffee beans

Let's start making apples. We wrap all the same foil balls paper napkins and coat with PVA glue, let dry

Tails from dry wild pears. We paint with gouache Orange color and dry again

We generously grease our balls with PVA glue and sprinkle with dry orange zest

We are preparing gifts. We have tea and coffee by weight packed in such paper bags, my hamster nature did not allow me to throw them away, so they came in handy

Here I put it all together, what will we fill our sled with

We begin to fill our sleds. First we put up the tree. Between the bamboo sticks of the trunk, I inserted a toothpick on the glue, put on a ball. I didn’t take a photo, the tree rests on the back of the sled and the ball at the end of the trunk

The Christmas tree was set, we put gifts, apples by the trunk. We put the Snowman, and then we fill our sleds. We decorate the filled sleigh with alder cones
