Instructions
Step 1
Fabric toys. Surprise bags can be sewn from the remains of fancy fabric. Velvet, brocade, organza are suitable for making these New Year's toys. Sew small bags from rectangular pieces of fabric. Put small surprises inside: New Year's greetings, candies, little souvenirs. Tie them up with a nice bow and hang them on the tree. Hand these toys to your guests on New Year's Eve.
Step 2
Felt toys. Cut small Christmas trees out of felt according to the stencil. To make one toy, you will need two Christmas trees of different sizes. Glue rhinestones on a smaller Christmas tree, decorate with thin braid and stick on a large Christmas tree. Attach the loop for attaching to the tree.
Step 3
Toys made of cardboard and paper. Cut three circles of different sizes and colors out of decorative cardboard. For one Christmas tree toy, you need three circles. Stick them on top of each other. The principle is as follows - the largest at the bottom, and the smallest at the top. Decorate the upper circle with decorative elements. By this principle, you can make a flower, butterfly or other shape.
Step 4
Old toys can also be transformed with decor. Decorate round Christmas tree decorations with small pieces of fabric. Cut into squares from the various remnants of the fabric and glue them over the toys. Circle the joints of the patches with a volumetric contour.
Make a festive decor for the toy out of thin organza. Lay it on a rectangular piece of organza, tie the ends of the fabric together and tie it with a nice ribbon.
Step 5
Toys from old newspapers. A simple but very effective Christmas tree toy can come from unnecessary newspapers. Take a newspaper, cut it into strips. Crumple each strip in your hand so that you get a ball. Wrap the thread around the ball to keep it in shape. Then put all the balls on paper and paint them with spray gold or silver paint. After the balls are dry, tie them several times with the appropriate colored braid. Make a fastener from the same braid and hang it on the herringbone.
Step 6
Foam ball toys. This material is very convenient for making Christmas tree decorations. You can stick coffee beans, small shells, rhinestones, buttons on them, and cover with braid. It is easy to stick any object into the balls: flowers, bows. This can be easily done with a toothpick.
Step 7
Toys made from natural materials. Cones, nuts painted with gold paint will take their rightful place on the New Year tree. Dried slices of orange, lemon, cinnamon sticks will add the scent of pine needles and also accompany your handmade Christmas tree decorations.
