Christmas tree made of plastic spoons

And the first master class will be devoted to creating an unusual Christmas tree from plastic spoons. Quite creative, as well as a quick way to create a bright Christmas decoration. For work, prepare the paper as densely as possible (the base will be made from it), plastic spoons, glue (it is better if you use a glue gun), as well as a spray of any color you like.

Manufacturing process

First you need to make a base. You should take whatman paper or thick cardboard and draw a circle on it. Its diameter will be equal to the height of the future Christmas tree, so the size of the circle depends entirely on your preferences. Cut out the fourth part of the circle and make a cone from the remaining part. Its edges should be fastened with glue or double-sided tape. Keep in mind one thing: if you use double-sided tape, then it should not go to the front side, because. subsequently, plastic spoons will not stick to this area.

Next, start preparing spoons for the Christmas tree. Trim the handles to the base as shown in the photo. In the store you can find spoons of different sizes. You need to choose those that are ideal for the size of the future New Year's decor. The number of plastic spoons also depends on the size of the base.

When you have finished preparing all the parts of the Christmas tree, start painting them. To make the work more convenient, first paint all the spoons on the back, as shown in the second photo. Thanks to this, you can practice, see how the paint will lay on the surface or experiment with colors, because. the front part will be visible on the Christmas tree, the spoons are attached to the base with the back side.

After painting the back side, wait for it to dry completely and paint the spoons on the other side. When all the details are dry, they need to be fixed on a paper basis with a glue gun (you can use the “Moment”).

The Christmas tree should be filled by gluing all the spoons in separate rows. Start doing this work from the bottom, as illustrated in the photo. Following these recommendations, you will be able to create a very unusual Christmas tree that will become a real decoration of your holiday. In a similar way, you can make Christmas trees from tinsel or Christmas balls. An example of what beauties you can get, look at the photo.

To make a Christmas tree from threads, prepare a mixture of water with starch or cornmeal. Mix the flour with cool water in a ratio of 1:1 (2 tsp each), pour the mixture over 1 tbsp. boiling water and put on fire, cook it, stirring constantly. Gradually, the mixture will thicken, you need to achieve the consistency of the sauce, an approximate result can be seen in the first illustration.

Let the solution cool and proceed to the second step. Make a base cone. Cut out a circle from paper, remove its fourth part and glue the edges of the cone. To keep it from getting wet, wrap the paper cone with cling film, hiding all the edges inside.

Of course, you can use PVA glue in your work instead of a mixture, but in this case you need to carefully lubricate the paper base with a fat cream or petroleum jelly. Otherwise, the cone will be quite difficult to remove from the structure.

Now moisten the thread in the resulting solution, it is important to make sure that it does not get tangled. It will be most convenient to wind the thread around your fingers or wrist. After your thread is completely soaked, remove any excess mixture, but do not twist it out.

Start wrapping the base. Initially, secure the tip well in the manner illustrated in the photo. Then wind the thread, according to personal wishes: up, down, tighter or not. Upon completion of this work, the Christmas tree should be left in a warm room overnight so that the product can dry completely.

Now you can get the cone. The first step is to remove the paper structure, and only then remove the film. Be extremely careful as the structure is very fragile.

Now start preparing the material. Sew a strip of chiffon on a sewing machine, picking up the material, you can see an example in the photo. When the chiffon stripes are ready, glue them to the base, starting from the bottom.

Sweet Christmas Tree

Sweet design has become quite common in the manufacture of all kinds of crafts, which can also serve as quite pleasant sweet souvenirs for people close to us. And let's try to make a Christmas tree in a similar technique. You will not need any extra effort or rare materials.

Since the candies are quite heavy, build a frame out of thick paper that will support their weight. Secure the cone with glue, stapler or tape.

If you plan to make a Christmas tree with a top, take care of it at this stage, when the base is still empty.

To decorate the Christmas tree, you will need tinsel and sweets. Their number will directly depend on the size of the product. Now use tape or a glue gun. With their help, glue all the candies to the base by the tails of the wrapper. If it is more convenient for you, first make notes on the future location of the sweets.

To make such a tree, at least 4 packs of cotton pads will take. Additionally, prepare a stapler, glue, cardboard for the base, white acrylic paints and additional decor in the form of mother-of-pearl beads.

To create such an unusual New Year's decoration, we need a lot of petals made from cotton pads. Following the illustration, bend the disk four times and secure the corner with a stapler. You should get the same details as in photo 4-6.

When all the decorative “needles” from the disks are ready, make a cone-shaped base from thick cardboard. Choose the size of your choice. If there are not enough needles, they can always be completed. Paint the base with white acrylic paint and let it dry.

Now that all the preparations are finished, you need to glue all the petals to the base. Start gluing from the bottom, gradually rising to the top.

When all the needles are in place, start decorating. Plant the beads on the glue.

And at the end, make a star according to the template. Cut out two identical parts and open them with white acrylic paint. Next, apply several layers of gold acrylic paint to the star and decorate the edges with gold tinsel.

It remains to place an asterisk on top and our unusual Christmas tree is completely ready.

Putting up a Christmas tree for the New Year is a good tradition supported by many families. But chopping a live spruce to enjoy the beauty of a forest beauty for just a few days is not very humane.

Hi all!

DIY Christmas tree, which can be the best gift for the New Year 2019. But if you do not take into account, which we talked about in the previous article. You knew that such a symbol of the new year should be in every home. Therefore, I suggest that you consider all the most popular materials for making Christmas trees. Believe me, there are a lot of them, you can make such a craft from almost everything.

We will make a prickly symbol from materials such as: cones, plastic bottles, isolon and even sweets. I picked up options easier - from cardboard. Such masterpieces can be made with your kids. I assure you that this activity, oh, how they will like it. The main thing is to choose something suitable and affordable for children.

In general, any work done by oneself is valued many times more. Therefore, if you have decided to give something to loved ones, let it be something, then thematically made with your own hands. No one will remain indifferent to such a gift. I am sure that the product will take pride of place on the festive table. We will decorate it and remind you of you.

Speaking of the festive table, who has already prepared the upcoming menu? If not then welcome to mine. Where can I find the recipe for you? There's a new salad with shrimp and tangerines. Or you can make a regular Olivier in the shape of a pig. And there are a couple more options. So I'll be waiting for you!

So we talked a little about the coming year and gifts. While we get down to business, we stock up on the necessary material and get to work. The main thing is not to be lazy and it is advisable to start preparing now. All options are simple and accessible to everyone, show maximum effort and everything will work out.

DIY Christmas tree for the New Year 2019

There are a lot of ideas for creating Christmas trees. They perfectly come to mind when there is something unnecessary at home, but it’s a pity to throw it away. It is at this moment that we are placed not by real thoughts that are realizable. It is enough to show a minimum of effort and the first thing you need to do is drive a search query into the Internet. Well, probably everyone will succeed and it’s not worth going into details here. Well then, let's go further to analyze suitable ideas.

And the first option presented will be the beauty of cotton pads. Think it's impossible? I want to prove it back to you and lay out a small master class.

You see, everything is quite easy and simple. We stock up on a pack of cotton pads, glue and a stapler. The basis for the cone can be made independently from whatman paper. This is very easy to do, see below.

We do everything according to the instructions. The glue must be strong so that the cone holds well. And the finished work pleased us as long as possible. If this option for making the base turned out to be too much for you, we get a ready-made cone in specialized needlework stores. Believe me, there you can find the right height and size.

We will decorate the finished Christmas tree with multi-colored beads. Do not forget about the asterisk, it plays an important role in the decor. Well, it's time to move on to the next option.

We will talk about another craft made of tinsel. Such work will be ideal for kindergarten or for classes with children. It is done quite easily, but how much beauty it will bring to your room. I suggest not just wrapping the finished base with tinsel, but making something unique. Candy will help us with this.

Attach the tip of the prepared sweets to the cone. Scotch tape can serve as a fixative. So that during the removal of sweets, the tree remains safe and sound. Now that everything is hanging in its place, you can start wrapping the base with tinsel. By the way, the color of the fluffy decoration can be any, in our case it is green.

Here is another interesting idea to make a New Year's beauty from pasta. First, we start gluing the base. To do this, choose the appropriate form of cereals. We decided to focus on feathers, but curls look just as good.

We will start attaching the pasta from the very top of the head. Going down slightly twisting to the side, with each new circle. Thus we will reach the very bottom.

Now that the cone is completely pasted over with grits, let's start painting it. To do this, we need gold-colored spray paint.

Work with spray paint at home is prohibited. Since during spraying it releases toxic substances. The ideal place for painting would be a balcony or street.

In places where there are gaps, decorate with tinsel. We will hang colorful balls, and decorate the crown with a star. The finished work can be planted in a pot. To do this, you need to pierce the base with a stick (for sushi). And stick it into the pot, first filling it with alabaster cement mixture.

But keep in mind that in this case the cone must be made of foam material.

You can decorate the pot with decorative stones. By the way, in this work it is not recommended to use earthenware, preferably metal.

Check out more great pasta creations. Painted green. And the shape of the flour product is slightly different. Despite this, everything looks perfect.

So in conclusion of this subtitle, consider another way to make crafts. We will make our symbol of the new year from pompoms. Remember, as a child, we were taught to make them in kindergarten. I remember we made chickens out of them. Who forgot? For you a more detailed scheme of manufacturing.

Yarn is desirable to use thicker and lush. Now that the pompoms are prepared, we decide on the option of the Christmas tree. And here are two options for you.

In the first case, the product is made of smaller pom-poms. Here the base is used where all the fluffy blanks are attached. In the second version, everything is a little different. The balls here are very large and this forest beauty is made without additional foundation. Thus, all blanks from threads are attached to each other with glue. Here it is desirable to use quality glue. I have a hot gun for such purposes. Which is refilled with glue rods. When heated, they melt and hold the bonded material together very tightly.

We will decorate such a beauty with improvised materials. It can be anything from ordinary rhinestones and beads to decorative buttons.

In general, there are a lot of options for creating Christmas trees. Today we will analyze a lot of them. All this is done so that you can decide and make a choice. The New Year is already close, so you need to stock up on such crafts now. Or at least start thinking about making them.

We proceed to the next sub-topic, no less useful and very relevant, so to speak.

Craft from fir cones and pine cones to the garden - in the form of a Christmas tree

When in kindergarten they give some task for making crafts, parents are divided into several parts. Someone just skips past the ears, dumping all their employment on work. Some rush into a panic without understanding what is required of them. And most still sit down on the Internet and look for a suitable idea. And as the saying goes, "he who seeks will always find." This is where I will help you now.

We will make a Christmas tree from cones, no matter from which tree they fell from pine or spruce. Our task is to choose the most whole, and pay attention to the size. Try to choose the same ones.

Let's start with the simplest option. For the manufacture we need a large cone. Decided, now you need to choose a suitable pot. You can take an ordinary plastic cup after hammering it with something heavy. And decorate the surface, for example, with burlap. Sew a small bag out of this rough material and plant a pot with a Christmas tree in it.

Such a mini product should be decorated with beads, the color is not important. The main thing is to make it bright and beautiful. By the way, an asterisk can be cut out of thick cardboard. The edges of the cone can be decorated with white paint.

Well, all the work is ready, now you can carry it to the kindergarten. In principle, you should not have any difficulties in your work. If you have questions write in the comments. I will definitely answer and help.

Another no less interesting option is to glue the homemade base with cones. We will make a cone from thick cardboard. We use hot glue as a fixative.

The direction of the cones should be chosen independently. The photo shows one of them. Once the base is completely trimmed, you can proceed to the scenery. Here we already turn on our imagination. There are a lot of options, these can be: beads of different sizes, walnuts in the shell, decorative mountain ash, acorns, etc. In a word, the decoration should be similar to the main material, which means it is made of natural materials.

Some people make bows from a regular tourniquet. They fasten them to the finished work, it turns out very beautifully. Just don't go overboard with the quantity.

If you disassemble the cones into scales, you can create a very beautiful work. True, it will be a little more difficult in the execution of the previous options. We will attach the material to the foam base.

We decorate the finished work at our discretion. I would recommend that you paint the tips of the “scales” white. As if creating an image of snow. Unforgettable about the asterisk, it plays a very important role.

Now that the work is ready, you should take care of its storage and care in advance. Of course, such a tree should be kept out of the reach of children. Because the product is very fragile. But care does not require much time. Our task is to remove the formed dust on the surface. This task is perfectly handled by a regular toothbrush.

Well, we’re all carrying the finished beauty to the kindergarten. I think the teacher will appreciate your work. Be sure to please yourself with such a prickly craft. In the interior, it looks very nice.

On the festive table, such work will occupy the most “crown” place. By the way, the perfect gift for family. Let's not be lazy and start preparing.

How to make a Christmas tree from improvised means (photo ideas)

In general, the creation of a Christmas tree is not a tricky business, and if you really want to create a masterpiece, then you will definitely succeed. Moreover, such beauty can be created from various materials that are likely to be at hand. So it's time to look back and take a closer look at what it is like to throw it away. Well, you don’t need to throw it away, I propose to make a New Year’s beauty. Below are some photo ideas.

And here is the first of them, what is the New Year without spruce branches and garlands. I propose to fix these attributes in the form of a Christmas tree on the wall and beautifully decorate with balls. Here is an example of this you should succeed. I think it turns out great.

No less interesting is the idea of ​​​​a sweet beauty from caramel sticks. But the version of the wooden symbol looks quite interesting. Made from ice cream sticks. You can dream up a little and decorate it on top of some kind of garland. Or paste over with rhinestones and voluminous beads of bright colors.

Look, and the version of such a Christmas tree will become not only a symbol of the new year, but also a kind of talisman. After all, it is made of banknotes. I think this beauty will be to the liking of everyone for the holiday. Only here with the technique of execution should be decided in advance. In principle, nothing complicated, the main thing is to get a base in the form of a cone. Or make paper paper yourself, and then carefully attach banknotes to it. By the way, the asterisk is made from the same material.

Look at what Christmas tree made from plain paper and skewers. The main thing is to take not an ordinary white sheet, but something interesting. For example, with printed text in an unfamiliar language. And look at the size of the squares, they are all different, starting with the largest and ending with the smallest. As a basis for the load, ordinary cardboard is used, so the tree will be more stable.

Let's look at a couple more ideas. Here, for example, is a wonderful option made from ordinary dense threads. Red beads, decorative snowflakes and buttons of different colors were used as decorations. By the way, a foam cone is also used here as a basis.

See what beauty can be created from corrugated paper. And all thanks to the special structure of this paper. In the form of a base, we use the same shape in the form of a cone. But the paper itself will be cut into squares. We will start making this craft from the very bottom. All our beauty will be attached with hot glue.

And in conclusion of this subtitle, one more idea for creating a prickly beauty. We will make it from ordinary sisal. The color of which can be absolutely any. This material can be found in needlework stores. Here we decide on the decor ourselves, it can be anything.

Let's move on to the next topic of making a New Year's symbol.

Master class of a Christmas tree from plastic bottles

Well, ready to create a unique Christmas tree from an ordinary plastic bottle. Let's get down to business, we'll need a little. With a minimum amount of material, we will make with you the most unique New Year's beauty. And believe that it will be just as good as the rest of the crafts.

We will need:

• Empty 2 liter plastic bottle (green)
• Scotch
• Scissors
• Sheet of paper (landscape)

Manufacturing technique:

1. First of all, let's make a stand for our future crafts. To do this, cut off the neck of the bottle. Make marks in advance so that the edges are even.

2. Now we will make the base (trunk) to which we will later attach all parts of the tree. To do this, we twist a sheet of paper into a tube. The diameter of which should be equal to the opening of the neck.

Fasten the edges of the resulting tube with tape. And insert the finished barrel into the hole.

3. Let's move on to the next step. We will prepare needles for our Christmas tree. But first you need to make small blanks in the amount of 12 pieces. As you can see in the photo, they are all different sizes. That's right, because the tree will be narrower towards the top. Therefore, from below we will fasten large parts.

The size of the blanks: rectangular shape - 8 by 7 cm, 8 by 5.5 cm, 6 by 4 cm. You can not stick to the given sizes and make all the shapes twice as large.

Please note that if you plan to make a large Christmas tree, then we double the size of the blanks. Do not forget about the barrel, it will also be much longer.

4. It's time to create needles. We take scissors and one of the cut out rectangular parts. And we begin to cut it into strips 3-4 mm wide. without reaching the end. On average, you must maintain a distance of 0.7-1 cm from the edge. We do the same with all parts.

Take the scissors in your hands and with the sharp side go through the cut needles. As if twisting them to the side. Take this matter seriously. Take your time and do not take all the strips in one pile at once. It is better to divide them into 3-4 times. So your work will look much better.

5. Now we will attach all twisted shapes to the trunk. To do this, wrap the finished workpiece around the base. Then we carefully glue everything with adhesive tape, it is possible in several layers. So to speak for reliability.

Thus we act with all parts, moving to the very top. To complete the work, take one of the small pieces. Then twist it in your hands, secure with tape. We dress the finished spare part to the very top.

Congratulations, we made a wonderful Christmas tree. By the way, such work is within the power of any student. But preschool children will be great helpers. This work can be decorated with beads of different sizes, but without fanaticism.

We make a voluminous Christmas tree out of paper - step by step instructions

Here is another interesting idea to make a Christmas tree out of paper. This work at first glance seems quite simple, but it is. But despite this, its manufacture still requires step-by-step instructions. That is why I decided to bring to your attention a small video tutorial. Where we will not only learn how to make such beauty in detail, but also receive additional recommendations that you should definitely listen to.

The work is truly amazing. When you repeat everything after the author of the video, everything turns out very quickly. I also liked that everything is recorded in the video so slowly, it’s simply impossible not to have time to repeat one of the steps.

I found another great idea on the Internet to create a Christmas tree out of paper. Look, in principle, there is nothing complicated in its manufacture. So, take a sheet of paper of the desired color and get down to business.

Here are some interesting paper works you can create with your own hands. And we go further, we need to disassemble quite a few crafts.

We make a Christmas tree lamp from isolon

Before proceeding with the manufacture of crafts from isolon, I propose first to talk about the material itself. So, what is it? I will not scatter clever words, so as not to confuse you, I will simply say this is a building insulation. But despite this, he is in great demand in needlework. Especially in making giant flowers. We will make a Christmas tree with you in the form of an unusual lamp.

Below is a video with a complete master class on creating this beauty. So, stock up on material and start watching. Watch the tutorial in its entirety before starting. This is the only way to understand if you can do this job.

This is beauty, I think that such beauty should decorate every home. I think we need to get started now.

Delicious DIY candy tree

What could be better than a delicious gift made in the form of a Christmas tree. The base is made from champagne. So to speak, two in one drink and a snack to it. And believe me, the whole technique for making such crafts is so simple that even a child can do it according to the instructions.

And in order for our forest beauty to be more saturated and bright, I propose to supplement it with tinsel. The color will be the corresponding green. Yes, I keep saying and saying it's time to get down to business.

We will need:

• Champagne - 1 bottle
• Double-sided adhesive tape
• Candies
• Scissors
• Tinsel
• Beads on a fishing line

Manufacturing technique:

1. First of all, let's deal with the processing of the bottle. Be sure to degrease it with any alcohol tincture. Then glue it with double-sided adhesive tape from bottom to top. We immediately remove the protective layer so that in the future there will be no difficulties.

Scotch can be absolutely any color. It does not play a special role in this case. All the same, it will be hidden behind all our beauty.

2. Now that the bottle is ready, let's start decorating it. We take tinsel and start wrapping from the very bottom. Take your time, our task is to make one row for now. Then we stop and fix sweets in a circle on top of the tinsel. Sweets should be fastened by the tail. Thus, when you later remove one of the sweets, it will be almost imperceptible.

Thus, it is necessary to fill the entire space of the bottle.

Try to choose candies with a brighter label. So the finished work will look much more impressive.

Now you can start decorating the finished Christmas tree. Everything is possible here. It is desirable to use beads on a thread. So that they can be removed later. As for the rest, let your imagination run wild.

Everyone will be happy with this gift. Despite the minimal amount of material used in the composition, the Christmas tree came out wonderful. And just the decoration of the bottle itself is very beautiful.

The idea of ​​\u200b\u200bmaking a Christmas tree from cardboard at home

Well, we have come to the final stage. Consider with you another idea for creating cardboard Christmas trees. Seems impossible? I want to convince you because in the West such beauties have gained great popularity. And if in our country it is made in the form of a small craft, then everything is different there. See for yourself...

They are made in full human growth. And the design of such a Christmas tree can be absolutely any. You can see it for yourself in the picture above. If initially the forest beauty is presented in a more real form. In the second version, everything is different, we see a certain geometric detail in front of us. Which, by the way, is very similar to the symbol of any new year, and it is decorated with a bright garland. And at the top, a familiar star flaunts with all of us. Move on…..

Look at what a unique masterpiece, I'm sure such beauty can not be found in everyone. Because, as to its creation, you need to apply maximum effort. Although in practice everything is quite easy. Initially, it is clear that the entire design is applied to the base in the form of a cone. Which by the way you can make your own with the help of cardboard. And then you can safely turn on your imagination. The only thing is that if you want to make a Christmas tree on a stand, then you should think about the stand in advance. Although even without it, the work looks just as good.

More flamboyant Christmas trees in human growth. In this case, we see that the work is in progress. And as you can see, all products are made from the most ordinary cardboard. It's all about the decoration, it will surely cover all unnecessary defects.

Here is another interesting idea. A Christmas tree in this style initially turned out to be very unusual. That is why it does not require any additional decorations, it will already be superfluous.

Look how beautiful it turns out if you do the work in gentle colors. This Christmas tree will brighten up any room. For a girl, it will be possible to make a forest beauty in pink.

Below I will present you with several templates that will help in the implementation of your ideas. And here is one of them, by the way, you can play a little with the size. It does not have to be A4 size cardboard.

This work is best made from thicker cardboard. So that when you hang any toy on the spout, it does not bend. Naturally hung toy should not be very large. Everything should be in moderation.

Here is another template, which, by the way, looks just as good in practice as the others. Again, this is just a diagram. And how the finished work will look primarily depends on you. It's all about the design, the colors you use.

Finally, I will present to your attention another interesting template. By the way, according to him, it’s just possible to make a Christmas tree in human height. The main thing is to decorate it correctly, you can learn about design options from the subheading by going up a little higher.

Wow, before writing this article, I didn’t even think that a Christmas tree can be created from almost everything. Any improvised material can be in business. The main thing at the right time is to turn on the fantasy.

Well guys, it's time to say goodbye. You choose one of the options. Or bookmark the article in its entirety. And I'm going to get ready to write a new one. After all, the new year is coming soon, which means you need to accelerate. There is still a lot of work.

DIY creative Christmas tree

If you want something original, or you just don't have enough space for a large Christmas tree at home, you can try to make such a simple design.

It is worth noting that such a tree is suitable for any room. It can be done both at home with children and at work.

This Christmas tree can rise by 1.5-2 meters and takes up almost no space in the house. In addition, it is a good background for New Year's photography.

You will need:

Foam base or matte cardboard

Scissors

corrugated paper

masking tape

adhesive tape

PVA glue

Stationery knife

marker, optional

1. Lay out the styrofoam or cardboard on a flat surface to get a large rectangle (see picture).

2. Use adhesive tape to connect all parts.

* In this example, black tape was used for better visibility, but white tape is better.

3. Mark the size of your future Christmas tree with masking tape.

4. Using a utility knife, carefully cut out the shape of the future tree.

5. Prepare the crepe paper, fold it in half and cut the fringe. You should have plenty of fringed paper to cover the entire Christmas tree.

6. Start gently gluing the crepe paper to the styrofoam, starting at the base of the tree. The fringe should hang just below the base to cover the styrofoam (or cardboard) and also slightly cover the top of the tree trunk, which we'll make later.

7. Move to the top, covering the entire tree with a bright green fur coat made of crepe paper.

8. On the back of the tree, add a hook so that the tree can be hung. Instead of a hook, you can use double tape to cover the perimeter of the Christmas tree.
