The most long-awaited holiday for kids and adults - New Year which everyone is looking forward to. Decorating the apartment so that it feels like the arrival of something fabulous, unusual is a matter of paramount importance. Despite the fact that the 21st century is in the yard, many are interested in how to make DIY Christmas toys for 2017. In this article, we will look at various options making Christmas decorations for the New Year.

Rooster on the Christmas tree

Next year is the year of the Rooster, so you can create it from paper or other materials and hang it on the Christmas tree. You can make a lot of these cockerels and collect pendants into a garland to decorate your home. If you are going to make a paper cockerel, take cardboard as a base, which you will glue on both sides.

  1. You will need multi-colored sheets of colored paper (you can use colored cardboard) and a sheet of cardboard. Draw the silhouette of a rooster on cardboard and cut it out.
  2. Using the cardboard blank as a template where necessary, draw the details on colored paper (cardboard): head, torso, wings and tail - pre-fold the sheets in half so as not to waste time preparing blanks for the second side.
  3. The next step: cut out our blanks.
  4. Now we glue the parts from colored paper (cardboard) onto the cardboard blank. After the cockerel has gathered into a whole picture, you can decorate it with sparkles, beads - whatever comes to mind.
  5. Make a hole in the workpiece, thread the ribbon and hang it on the Christmas tree.

You can make a similar toy out of felt and also use it to decorate the Christmas tree.

Draw a pattern by hand or use any ready-made one, for example, this one:

Homemade cockerels made using the origami technique will look original.

pillow toy

Difficult but very an exciting activity in the manufacture of toys is the creation of a pillow in the form of a symbol of the year, which will delight you not only in the year of the Rooster, but much longer. You will need a pattern, fabric, filler, felt (depending on the model chosen), threads and needles. Here the matter is small, we circle the pattern, sew the details, leaving a hole to fill the pillow with filler. We turn it inside out, put the filler inside the toy, sew it up to the end.

Photos and patterns

There is also a more complex plan with fabric painting - this is batik, thanks to which the pillow will acquire bright color. After you have circled the cockerel on the fabric, color it with special paints, they can be replaced with gouache if you mix it with PVA glue. We leave for a day for the paint to dry, and continue to finish the pillow in the form of a rooster.

From salt dough

At a competition, children are often asked to bring something to school. New Year's crafts. Make it from salt dough. Crafts made of bioceramics can also be a great gift from children to grandparents. Moreover, this occupation is so exciting that it fully claims the status of a hobby.

Before you make a toy out of salt dough, you need to prepare the dough itself. To prepare the dough, use a small table salt, ordinary wheat flour and water in a ratio of 2:4:2, respectively. First mix flour and salt, then add warm water knead the dough thoroughly for at least 10 minutes.

There is another recipe for making dough. In this case, flour and salt are taken in the same proportions, only the flour is sifted beforehand. You need to take a little less than 1 1/3 cups of water. The cooking method will be different. According to this recipe, water must be brought to a boil and salt should be dissolved in it. Only then flour is added.

When the dough is ready, start making crafts. If you are doing crafts with your child, simplify the task by taking cookie cutters, for example, in the form of Christmas trees or bunnies - you will get wonderful Christmas decorations. Make a toy (you can use beads or beads for decoration), do not forget to make a hole at the top. To harden the toy, it is left for 24 hours or baked in the oven. After the toy has hardened, it is painted acrylic paints, gouache, watercolor, allow to dry well and cover either colorless varnish for nails, or nitro-lacquer on wood. A thread or ribbon is threaded through the hole. Here's the New Year's gift.

Soap figurines

Soap is always useful. A little unexpected, but soap can also be used to decorate the Christmas tree. Soap toys for the Christmas tree are made by hand. The process is simple. First, we rub the baby soap on a coarse grater, melt it in a hot bath (make sure that bubbles do not form), pour the liquid into a mold and leave it to harden.

  1. If you want to make colored soap with pleasant aroma, then add dyes to the base - it can be like food colorings, and the juice of berries or vegetables, such as cherries, beets, carrots. The smell can be given with the help of perfumes or fragrances.
  2. If instead baby soap use ready-made transparent soap base, then you can make soap with "filler". After you half fill the form with melted soap, let it brew for 20-30 minutes, put a slice of lemon or orange on top, coffee beans and fill the form to the end with soapy liquid.
  3. So that soap also has useful cosmetic effect, add to the base ground coffee, which will work like a scrub, various oils, lemon zest, ground oat flakes. Such a toy, which in combination will also be an excellent gift, will obviously not be left without attention.

big toys

Using threads, you can also create wonderful jewelry of a rather large size - giants. It is enough to inflate the balloon, wrap it with a thread dipped in PVA glue and leave it for 24 hours. After drying, the balloon burst, air remains christmas toy from threads, which for decoration can be covered with silver or gold paint, decorated with beads, beads, sequins, ribbons. Pass the tape, and the accessory is ready. If you prepare two or three balls different size you can make a snowman.

Christmas trees are made from threads according to the same principle. As a base on which you will wind the thread, use a Whatman cone. You can make such a toy in miniature if you take a simple sheet of cardboard instead of whatman paper. Light beads, ribbon bows are useful for decoration.

By the way, use a paper cone for the base if you are going to make Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden. It is enough to glue such a cone, paint it or make clothes out of paper or fabric. The head can serve as an inflated balloon with a painted face.

For giant toys, boxes from under are also useful household appliances, which can be pasted over with foil, colored paper, appliqués, or even made into a Nutcracker.

Snowmen

Snowmen from socks - there is nothing more primitive, but it looks very original. To do this, we fill the sock with sand, buckwheat, and with the help of threads we give it a shape, sew on buttons. You can make a base from a white sock, and clothes from a colored one. Pretty snowmen are also obtained from an unnecessary light bulb, they simply paint it with the help of acrylic paints and decorate it with cotton wool and sparkles.

Little accessories complete your festive table. We paint wine glasses with acrylic paints. If you know how to draw, then you can easily do this job, if not, then use stencils. Be careful as paint may bleed.

Sweet decorations

The following options are clearly for the sweet tooth.

Caramels

The appearance of Christmas decorations can be deceiving, because they may well turn out to be sweet candies. It's very simple: first, mix 300 g of sugar and 100 ml of water, put on fire, stir until the sugar melts and the syrup starts to boil, acquiring golden hue. Ready syrup is poured into molds, pre-lubricated vegetable oil, and leave to cool completely until the caramel hardens. Then we carefully wrap the candy in crispy polyethylene, tie it with a ribbon and you can safely hang it on the Christmas tree. It is even easier to melt caramel in molds.

Candy tree

The New Year cannot do without a Christmas tree, a Christmas tree made of sweets is not only a decoration, but also delicious gift to please your friends or family. But even a small child will cope with the manufacturing technology:

With the help of simple materials, you can simulate a cobweb and make original toys, flowers and much more. Put a little effort and imagination, and you will get a great result!

You will need:

1. Silicate stationery glue in a plastic bottle.
2. Spool(s) of white (optionally colored) thread? 40-60.
3. Glass jar for spools of thread.
4. Scissors.
5. Thick and long needle.
6. Balloon (preferably a fingertip).
7. PVA glue for gluing parts.
8. colored paper for the manufacture of parts according to patterns.

Operating procedure:

#
Inflate a balloon about the size of an apple, tie it well, cut the ends of the thread.
#
Put the spool in a glass jar so that the thread from it unwinds easily and freely.
#
Pass the end of the thread into the needle and pierce the bottle with silicate glue with it, then the needle can be wiped off and removed until it is no longer needed.
#
Pull the thread a few times different sides, check whether it easily passes through punctures in the bottle.
#
Then take in left hand a balloon and, slowly, wrap it with a thread soaked in glue - this is how a cocoon is made.
#
If you use the full coil, the cocoon will be too frequent. The fewer threads, the lighter and more openwork it is. Two very beautiful cocoons can come out of one coil.
#
Wet cocoon should be put to dry on oilcloth away from heating appliances. It will be ready in about 4 hours.
#
If the drying cocoon crackles, it means that air comes out of the ball and the cocoon will not be rigid enough, which in turn will affect the quality of the product.
#
When the cocoon dries, you need to pull out the balloon from it. Carefully pierce it with a needle and pull it out through the cell in the bottom wall. If you still need a balloon for one item, carefully untie the thread and release the air.
You have in your hands a weightless openwork product made of a magic cobweb.

For a cockerel, you will need two cocoons of different sizes. The body is made from an oblong cocoon, and the head is made from a round cocoon. smaller. You are already familiar with the technique of making a cocoon. Make two cocoons desired shape and size. After the cocoons are completely dry, tie them with a thread. While the cocoons are drying, prepare all the necessary details from colored paper.

Crest. Cut out two pieces. Cut the valves with a fringe and bend inward. Fold both parts together and glue along the upper curved edge.

Wings. Cut out two identical parts, cut them as indicated on the pattern, and glue them into a funnel along the cut line.

Beak. Cut out both parts, cut them as shown in the pattern and glue, giving them a convex shape.

Eyes. The eye consists of three different colored circles, so you need to cut out 2 pieces of each color (yellow, white and black) of the appropriate size. Then lay the details of each eye on top of each other and connect them with a drop of glue.

Tail. Cut out seven multi-colored parts and assemble in any order on the mug in the same way as for a goldfish.

Chest decoration. We cut out the part and glue it on the breast, as shown in the picture.

Assembly:

AT upper part skip the thread of each cocoon, connect its ends together, then tie, pressing the cocoons to each other. Glue the eyes, beak and comb onto the head. Glue the breast with decoration on the front of the large cocoon. On the neck, at the junction of two cocoons, you can tie a bow from a narrow silk ribbon. And also glue the tail and wings.
