An indispensable attribute of the New Year is a tree. Without using living trees, the house can be decorated with paper figures or as a gift to friends. It won't take much time to make them, but such crafts will create a festive mood for you and your loved ones.
It is necessary
- - green paper;
- - scissors;
- - foil;
- - tinsel;
- - glue.
Instructions
Step 1
For making crafts using the origami technique, basic forms are used - certain folding methods that serve as the basis for the future figure. First, make three pieces of the basic Kite shape. To do this, prepare three squares: large, slightly smaller and small.
Step 2
Take one corner of the part and attach it to the opposite. Bend and align so the sides line up. Then iron the fold line. Now straighten the part back to its original square shape.
Step 3
After that, attach the sides of the square with a "valley" to the resulting midline. Align and fold. Now extend the inner corners so that the fold lines are side by side, along the midline.
Step 4
String the resulting parts on top of each other. Turn the craft over. Now the tree can be decorated with pieces of tinsel, sparkles, beads. Alternatively, use a hole punch to make foil figures and glue them to makeshift branches. With such a product, you can decorate a real Christmas tree or give it as a bookmark.
Step 5
To make the next version of the Christmas tree, 10 circles of different diameters will be required (the number of circles may be different, depending on the desired size of the craft and splendor). Divide the circles into 8 equal parts, mark with a pencil.
Step 6
Now make cuts approximately to the middle of the marked lines. Then make cones at the end of each segment and glue them. Repeat the same with other circles.
Step 7
Prepare the trunk for the future tree from the wire. In doing so, take into account the height of the product and add 20 cm for a stable base. Straighten the wire. Form a circle at one end so that the tree can stand. Pierce the middle of the prepared circles with a toothpick. Now string the pieces onto the base from largest to smallest. For the top of the tree, cut out a circle that is even smaller in diameter and make a cone out of it.
Step 8
Another way to make a Christmas tree from paper also involves assembling a model from round parts. It will require 3 circles of different diameters. Divide each piece into many equal parts (the more parts, the more magnificent the tree will be).
Step 9
Make cuts to the middle of the marked lines. And cut one of them to the middle of the circle. Turn the part right side up. Use a pencil to twist the cut parts.
Step 10
Now make a cone from the circle. Prepare the remaining Christmas tree tiers from the circles in the same way. Stack the pieces on top of each other. Decorate the product.
