You can decorate the Christmas tree not only with beads, but also with any other small decorative elements, such as stones, bows, crystals, etc.
It is necessary
- - thick cardboard (or plastic);
- - pasta (either "feathers" or "bows");
- - glue (it is better to take super glue);
- - aerosol green enamel;
- - red beads;
- - an artificial star of the required size (you can make it yourself or take a star-shaped pasta).
Instructions
Step 1
The first step is to make a cone of the required width and height from thick cardboard (or thin flexible plastic), paint it with green paint and let it dry.
Step 2
Next, you need to glue one row of pasta with glue around the base of the cone, trying to press them as tightly as possible to each other. Glue another row of pasta a little higher, trying to arrange the parts so that they slightly cover the previous ones, then another row and so on until the very end of the cone.
Step 3
Paint the pasta with green paint. At this stage, you can still cover the Christmas tree with transparent varnish after the paint has dried, after this procedure it will look brighter and more festive.
Step 4
After the Christmas tree itself is ready, you can start decorating it.
Bright red beads look very interesting on a green Christmas tree made of pasta. The beads must be glued with super glue on some pasta, distributing them evenly throughout the tree. It is worth noting that for a craft with a height of 10 centimeters, you need to use from 10 to 15 beads, 20 centimeters - 20-30 beads.
Step 5
The final stage is attaching a star to the crown of the Christmas tree. The easiest way to do this is with ordinary glue. In order for the craft to dry completely, it needs to stand in a warm, well-ventilated room for at least a day.
