Candy gifts for the New Year 2019 are a great alternative to all other souvenirs. After all, such a present gives joy twice: the first time when presented, the second when absorbing sweets. And if the gift is also made with your own hands, then the donee will be thrice pleased that you spent your time and put your soul into creating a surprise.

We offer 4 options for decorating sweet New Year's gifts for the upcoming 2019.

Pig of chocolates for a child

The Pig will be the hostess of 2019, so it is logical to arrange a souvenir in the form of this adorable animal. The first master class is very simple and affordable. To make a sweet pig, you will need the following materials and accessories:

  1. plastic bottle (1 l);
  2. chocolate candies in a pink wrapper (about 60 pieces, but it is better to buy more);
  3. pink fabric (flap about 30 * 30 cm);
  4. felt (flap approximately 20 * 20 cm);
  5. chenille wire (length no more than 10 cm);
  6. a pair of eyes for soft toys from a craft store;
  7. hot glue;
  8. stationery knife;
  9. scissors;
  10. stapler.

It takes about 1.5 hours to make one such pig. We do not waste time and get started!

Stage 1

Let's make the body of a pig out of a plastic bottle. Cut off the neck and bottom with a knife.

Stage 2

Cut the upper part of the bottle with scissors. Each cut is approximately 5 cm. Step 1.5-2 cm.

Stage 3

  • We overlap the resulting petals and fasten them with a stapler. This is necessary to make the pig's face less sharp, not like a fox.
  • Cut out a circle from the pink fabric, the diameter of which is 6 cm larger than the diameter of the hole on the bottom.
  • We glue the fabric to the bottom or attach it with a stapler.

Stage 4

  • We take the bottom cut off earlier. Each plastic bottle has 5 hills. You need to cut the bottom so that you get 2 parts with two hills. This will be 2 pairs of legs.
  • We glue each pair of legs with a pink cloth.
  • We glue the bottle over with a cloth - the body of the pig.

Stage 5

  • We glue the legs so that an even number of candies fit between them - one or two. Otherwise, the fabric will show through them, and this is not very beautiful.
  • We begin to glue sweets to the workpiece (body with legs). It is better to lay them across the body. If the wrapper is too large, you can trim the ends.

  • Then we deal with the muzzle. Cut out a strip of felt 1.5 cm wide and approximately 20 cm long.
  • We turn it into a ring - this is the beginning of the muzzle.
  • We also cut out a circle from felt, the diameter of which is slightly larger than the rolled strip - this is a patch.

Stage 7

  • We glue the muzzle and the patch to the appropriate places. We draw nostrils on the patch or we make them out of felt.
  • Cut the ears out of felt and glue them in place.
  • We glue the eyes.
  • We turn the tail out of the chenille wire and glue it too.

The pig is ready! A simplified version of creating such a gift from candies for the New Year 2019 with your own hands is not to cover the bottle with a cloth, but to paint it pink with acrylic paint from a can. Or pink nail polish. And you can also first pour dragees or monpensier inside the bottle so that the pig rattles. The child will be delighted!

  10. hot glue.

A candy composition for the New Year 2019 is not so difficult.

Stage 1

  • Let's start with the flowers. We pierce the sweets with long skewers.
  • Cut out wide strips with a wavy edge on one side from pink or red corrugated paper.
  • We wrap sweets on skewers with such strips to make a rosebud.

  • We glue the ovals on the bud, forming the petals. Bend the edges to make the rose more lush.

Stage 2

  • Cut out something that looks like grass from green corrugated paper and create a receptacle from the blanks.
  • The number of flowers can be any, depending on the size of the basket.
  • We proceed to the design of the basket. We spread the foam on the bottom and cover it with green foil paper, imitating a clearing.

Stage 3

  • We stick the roses into the foam. If necessary, the skewers can be trimmed shorter.
  • In the spaces between the roses, we stick decorative elements made of sweets using the same technology, but wrapped in silver or golden corrugated paper.

Pineapple candy for friends

If you have been invited to celebrate the New Year 2019 at a party, then you cannot come empty-handed. In order not to be mistaken in choosing something tasty, you can make a pineapple from sweets with your own hands. Most interestingly, the base is a bottle of champagne hidden inside.

For such an original gift, we need:

  1. a bottle of champagne;
  2. about 60 rounded chocolates in a yellow or golden wrapper (Ferrero or Golden Lily is ideal);
  3. corrugated paper in yellow and green;
  4. green nylon tape;
  5. green paper tape (which is used for wrapping bouquets);
  6. yellow sisal mesh;
  7. hot glue;
  8. scissors.

Let's get started.

Stage 1

First, let's prepare all the candies. It is necessary to remove the protruding wrapper. To do this, bend both ends and glue.

We wrap the bottle with a sisal net, putting it on the glue. The mesh plays a decorative role: it will hide the gaps between the candies.

We start sticking sweets from the bottom.

Stage 2

We wrap the neck with paper tape, gluing it so that it does not unwind.

Stage 3

Let's get started with the decor. Cut the yellow petals from corrugated paper and glue the neck of the bottle with them.

Stage 4

Bend the petals, winding the ends around a pencil to make the craft look more like a pineapple.

There should be many layers of petals: the more, the better.

We wrap the neck with a nylon tape and tie a bow.

Pineapple made from candies and champagne is ready! It is not a shame to come to visit with such a gift. Or you can just give it to your friends. It is symbolic that the yellow pineapple is the same as the 2019 hostess Pig.
