Before each New Year's holiday, Christmas tree sellers have a large number of branches. The pruning of spruce branches may remain unclaimed even after the installation of the winter beauty in the room. Don't throw them away, they are great material for interior design. You can make a spruce wreath from the branches, which will fill the room with a unique resinous ether and instantly create a festive mood.
It is necessary
- - flexible wire;
- - nippers;
- - green thread;
- - scissors;
- - satin red ribbon;
- - cones;
- - PVA glue;
- - silver, golden paint or glitter varnish;
- - colored Christmas candles.
Instructions
Step 1
Take a flexible wire and make a ring of the desired diameter out of it. You can form a wire heart if you like. Break off the ends or remove with nippers. Line the wire with pine or spruce branches on all sides and tie them firmly to the frame with green cotton threads. If there are cones on the spruce branches, place them on the outside of the craft. You must carefully veil all bare knots with needles so that they do not spoil the appearance of a wreath of spruce branches.
Step 2
Decorate the spruce wreath using materials at hand. Wrap the decoration with a bright red satin ribbon, trying to cover the most disadvantageous parts of the product, and then tie the ends in a beautiful bow. Pine, spruce, fir and other cones that you managed to collect, paint with silver or gold paint and dry. You can coat the natural material with glitter varnish. Glue the cones to the wood of the branch with PVA glue. Shoots with open scales look more impressive, so it is recommended to pre-hold fresh cones over hot steam in a metal sieve.
Step 3
Create a horizontal composition based on a fir wreath if you like to light traditional candles on New Year's Eve. Using the wire cutters, make several pieces of wire of the same size, according to the number of colored candles. The flexible frame should be four centimeters longer than the paraffin wax. Pierce the paraffin wax with a wire and screw the lower ponytails to the wreath. You don't have to screw the candles at all - just place one brightly decorated item on a candlestick in the center of the Christmas decoration made of fir branches.
