You can make a Christmas tree with your own hands from a variety of materials (paper, cardboard, cones, etc.), but a Christmas tree made of marmalade will look truly original and unusual.
It is necessary
- - round green fruit jelly;
- - round fruit jelly of yellow, red and blue color;
- - Styrofoam, cardboard or carrots;
- - knife;
- - toothpicks.
Instructions
Step 1
First you need to make the basis for the future New Year's beauty. The most convenient from the point of view of further finishing is considered to be a foam cone. To make it, a cone-shaped figure should be cut out of a thick piece of foam. In the event that the existing foam has a small width, then first you need to glue the two pieces together. It is best to cut the workpiece with a hot or very sharp knife.
Step 2
The base for a homemade Christmas tree can also be made of thick cardboard or use ordinary pre-washed carrots for these purposes.
Step 3
Next, we string the existing marmalade on toothpicks.
Step 4
When all the marmalade is strung, alternately insert the toothpicks into the prepared cone-shaped workpiece. It is best to start this process from the base of the cone, moving upward in a circle. Most of the workpiece should be covered with green marmalade, and the multi-colored marmalade should be positioned in such a way that it imitates a New Year's garland.
Step 5
Such a delicious and appetizing Christmas tree will not only be a wonderful decoration for a festive table, but also an excellent option for a New Year's gift.
