Long winter evenings, a quiet family atmosphere, New Year's holidays - and now the desire to create unprecedented beauty with our own hands awakens in us. And if you add to your own imagination the huge mass of ideas with which the Internet is simply overflowing, then you can actually become addicted to homemade products. Moreover, you don’t need any unusual materials for this. Just the opposite: on winter crafts Anything in the house will do.

Such funny snowmen made from felt, socks and even...

A funny penguin made of colored paper will amuse a child and teach the basics of geometry.

Snow-white winter is our favorite time of year for many of us, and New Year is one of the best holidays. Just imagine: it’s frosty outside, the roads are snowy, everything is covered with huge snowdrifts, and the whole family has gathered in a warm, cozy house on a day off. And when the kids start fiddling with colored paper and scissors, normal parents will not be able to stay away and will definitely join in the needlework, which will bring pleasure to both themselves and the kids. The desire to create awakens even more with the appearance of a fluffy Christmas tree. That’s when the children with mom and dad open a real workshop of Santa Claus, so many Christmas tree toys, garlands, snowflakes and decorations for gifts appear from under their hands. Not only is it beautiful, but it also brings great joy to those making crafts and those who see them.

The beads make very delicate snowflakes.

Joint family activities always have a very beneficial effect on the atmosphere in the house. And making crafts on New Year's Eve is a long-standing wonderful tradition in many families. But despite all its apparent simplicity, this work is quite painstaking, and it requires a lot of time and effort. But you won't sacrifice anything for this fun, meaningful activity. After all, such a pastime unites the hearts of all family members. And because adults and children do New Year’s crafts, the kids will not only get a lot of joy, but will also try very hard to make their parents like their work. Therefore, it is important to choose craft options in which the child can fully express himself. You also need to correctly distribute responsibilities, assigning the leading role to the baby. And believe me: your efforts will not be in vain.

These snowmen are made from socks. Shall we try?

Fill the sock with cotton wool and tie it as in the photo.

Use the leftover sock to make a snowman's hat.

Sew on the eyes and carrot nose.

Put the hat on the snowman and he is ready!

One of the simple New Year's crafts can be GRANDFATHER'S CLAUS, which requires a walnut and an apple to make. These delicious decorations can be placed under the tree or on a holiday table. A head is made from a walnut, on which a face is painted. The sharp end of the nut is the neck. Then you need to attach cotton wool hair and the same beard. The cap is made from a triangular piece of felt rolled into a cone and glued together, a cotton wool pompom is attached to its top and the cap is glued to the head. After this, a large red apple is carefully polished with a napkin. A drop of glue drips onto his tail and the head is glued on. If the family has small children who are used to testing everything, then the glue can be replaced with caramel or gelatin. You can also use a toothpick to connect the parts.

You can make penguins from plastic bottles.

DIY winter crafts

If you took up DIY winter crafts you can make very cute SNOWFLAKES. Moreover, they can also be very different in terms of complexity. For example, simple ones - from a sheet of paper, folded into a corner and cut off in the center and along the edges (either with a simple notch or more complex figures). Snowflakes can be made voluminous if, according to the standard principle, you fold a sheet of paper several times through the center onto a corner, and then make counter cuts in a checkerboard pattern, but not reaching the edge of the opposite side. In such a snowflake, the top may not be cut off, but the opposite side is cut with a simple straight cut, parallel to the counter cuts. After unfolding, the resulting corners are gently folded one after another towards the center and glued. Unused corners are wrapped on the other side of the product. It turns out to be a beautiful lush snowflake. You can make this constant winter attribute from beads and beads. The central circles are made from small beads, and the upper circles are made from ordinary beads. Such a snowflake must be woven from the central circle. You need to take a needle with a fishing line, put 5 beads on it, close it in a ring, and then put on another 5 beads, from which you again make loops. They need to be attached to the beads in the central circle, and then gradually increase the number of beads collected, and the loops should be attached to the already formed petals. Wire is also suitable for beaded snowflakes, which will make the decoration smoother. Such a snowflake will not bend and will be more convenient to hang on the Christmas tree. This is also better because with this weaving you do not need to put a needle on the wire.

Wire and yarn can make wonderful Christmas decor.

This is a snowflake made of salt crystals. Remember ours.

If you remember, we detailed how to make a solution for crystals.

Our inventive mothers, if desired or necessary, can adapt any item for decoration. This is how New Year’s crafts FROM FIGURED PASTA PRODUCTS have become very popular. You can get creative with your child and make unusual toys and funny garlands. Even if you simply paint them gold or white and sprinkle them with frosted pieces, the tree will sparkle from them, and the baby will be simply delighted. For the little ones, simple toys made from cardboard templates are suitable. The child will be able to cut out figures from paper, felt or foil. You can also use unnecessary beads and buttons found at home, different in shape and color. The child can sew them according to his own taste to previously made figures. Then they must be hung on the tree in the place of honor.

For crafts you will need pasta of different shapes, glue and glitter.

Children's winter crafts

For older guys, we can offer more serious kids winter crafts, requiring certain skills. This way, younger schoolchildren can easily cope with a New Year’s craft - SLIPPERS WITH SANTA CLAUS. Of course, they can be made “in an adult way” - from thick felt, insoles, padding polyester. But in our case, a simpler one is suitable - a souvenir version of slippers that can be hung, for example, for combs in the hallway. They are made either from thick fabric or cardboard. In this case, the child traces his foot on cardboard and cuts out the base. Then he cuts out the top of the slipper from another piece of cardboard, and you can offer him to cut out its shape according to the template you made in advance. Before connecting both blanks, the upper part is decorated to resemble the face of Santa Claus. To do this, you can take a braid of a suitable tone, thick fabric, colored paper, two white buttons and two black beads from which the eyes are made, multi-colored yarn, padding polyester for mustaches, beards and the edges of a hat. You can decorate everything with white gouache and glitter. If your child gives such a souvenir to his beloved grandparents, then their happiness will know no bounds.

And here is another postcard with a snowman.

A fun version of a New Year's craft - Christmas tree decorations FROM EGGSHELLS. First, the white and yolk are carefully blown out of a whole (fresh) egg through punctures at its ends. Then the most creative stage begins - decorating the shell. The easiest way is to cover the entire surface of the eggshell with small pieces of colored paper. You can glue different applications from the same colored paper. If you add cotton hair, a mustache, a beard and a paper cap to the drawn mouth, nose and eyes, you can get a cute gnome, clown, Santa Claus or someone else. You can also cover the egg with glitter, decorate it with finely chopped “rain”, various ribbons, and absolutely anything else you can get your hands on. You can also simply paint the shell, but not with watercolors or gouache. They do not adhere well to the surface of the egg, so oil or acrylic paint is more suitable. A thread for hanging the toy, first threaded through both holes, is secured at the lower end of the egg, for example, with a thread tassel or bead.

Sugar snowmen.

Do you still not know how to properly use plastic bottles?

But for an APPLE OF PARADISE, everything in the kitchen will do. This way you can crumple the foil and give it the shape of a small apple. On top it needs to be wrapped with a finishing layer of the same foil. A peppercorn is glued into the recess at the bottom of the apple, and two holes are pierced in the upper recess into which a stalk, a leaf and a fastening thread will be inserted. For the cutting, you can use a twig, a real tail from an apple or a piece of twine, and the leaf can be successfully replaced with a bay leaf, which is better tinted for greater naturalness. Now all that remains is to sprinkle the apple with snow. It can be replaced with scraps of paper, small polystyrene foam balls, or even ordinary granulated sugar. To prevent the snow from falling off, the apple should be coated with glue or clear polish (nail polish) and rolled in snow material prepared ahead of time. Moreover, you do not need to roll the entire apple, but only one side or the top. When the apple is dry, it will be ready to hang on the tree.

We invite you to get creative and return a little to childhood, when any fluff is a ballerina, any box is a house, and any leaf is something magical and unusual. In childhood, imagination is very well developed. It’s better to make crafts on the theme of winter with your own hands for kindergarten together with your kids. Children can suggest and come up with a lot, but the technical side of the issue is up to adults. Further in the article you will find descriptions of winter-themed crafts that you made yourself for kindergarten and many ideas and tips. All that remains is to set aside an evening and start creating magic together with your favorite little ones!

We associate winter with snow, snowflakes, snowdrifts and, of course, Happy New Year. Crafts for a competition or exhibition for a kindergarten on the theme of winter, which can be easily done with your own hands, should reflect these ideas. Based on this, we will select ideas and material for their implementation.

You can make a panel or a drawing. But this may not be a simple drawing, but made using an interesting technique. Here's what you can use to fill a canvas for a drawing or a panel on the theme of winter:

Semolina drawing.
Application made from cotton pads.
Application made of cotton wool.
Drawing from white crushed eggshell.
Drawing with sugar.

All these types of designs and applications involve gluing ingredients onto a base with a pattern applied with glue.

New Year's installations are a favorite type of creativity for kids. For it, you can take an empty unnecessary box and cut off 2 walls from it. There will be a floor with two walls at an angle. This will be the basis for an amazing fairy-tale landscape or scene. Snow can be made from cotton wool, houses and trees can be made from cotton swabs or newspapers rolled into a tube, painted with brown paint, or original logs. Further in the article a master class of one of these installations will be given.

Do-it-yourself winter-themed crafts for kindergarten can be made from paper or empty plastic bottles, from burnt out light bulbs, and generally from anything you find at home. Next, consider a penguin made from an empty plastic bottle and dogs made from light bulbs.

You can also make crafts on the theme of winter for kindergarten with your own hands from threads; photos of such crafts with descriptions are further in the article.

Craft “Winter's Tale”

And now we suggest looking at a photo and a detailed description of how to make some crafts on the theme of winter with your own hands for kindergarten.

We make things from what we have at home

We suggest using for crafts everything that is unnecessary in the house, for example, a burnt out light bulb. If there is a big paw, that’s very good. Let's turn her into a real New Year's penguin. What is needed for such magic:

burnt out light bulb (preferably larger);
acrylic paints or gouache and brushes;
some firth or fabric in black, red and white;
ribbon;
glue (use a heat gun if possible).

So let's begin:

Paint the entire light bulb white and let it dry thoroughly.
With a pencil we draw the front part: the face and belly, which will remain white, the rest is painted black, except for the place where the light bulb is screwed into the socket. We paint this place with red paint. Let it dry.
Draw the eyes and beak and let dry.
We cut out oval wings from black felt or thick fabric and glue them on both sides.
Cut out a red rectangle for the scarf and cut the ends, tie the scarf.
We attach a ribbon to the top of the head and cover it with a strip of white felt or fabric on top. You can attach a pompom to the top of your head.

The funny penguin is ready.

Penguin from a plastic bottle

Now let's see how to make a penguin or Santa Claus from a plastic bottle. The scheme is very similar and simple. For this craft you will need 2 empty identical bottles. We cut off only the bottom from one, and cut the second in half and glue the bottom of the first eggplant to it with tape or glue. It turned out to be such a block.

Now we paint it white and let it dry. Then, in the same way as with the light bulb, we draw the contours of the front part for the penguin or the face if we are making Santa Claus. We leave them white, paint the rest either black (for the penguin) or red (for Santa Claus). Then we draw the face and draw other necessary details. We put on a cap and a scarf, if we made Santa Claus, then we glue on a beard from cotton wool or felt. These are some interesting crafts you can make with your children from unnecessary things.

Panel “Snowman made of cotton pads”

What is winter without a snowman! Children love to build snowmen in the yards and poke around in the snow, rolling lumps for him. But they will also really like making such a winter hero at home from scrap materials. What is needed for the creative process:

thick cardboard for the base, light blue or dark blue;
cotton pads;
colored paper or thin felt;
White paper;
paints and brush;
scissors;
PVA glue.

Let's start building a snowman:

First, let's create a landscape around us. Cut out 2 colored rectangles from felt or paper and glue them onto cardboard. Cut out a brown tree trunk and glue it on.
We glue snow roofs on houses or half a cotton pad. We make the base of the snowman from two cotton pads. Glue on the snowman a cap made of felt or colored paper and a scarf.
We glue the discs as snowdrifts and snow on tree branches.
Cut out small snowflakes from white paper and glue them randomly.
Now all that remains is to paint the details: the snowman’s face, the windows.

A wonderful winter panel for the kindergarten is ready.

Winter panel made of semolina or sugar

Another fascinating and interesting option for a picture or panel on the theme of winter is painting with semolina or sugar. Kids will be delighted with this activity. To make such a panel, take colored cardboard, PVA glue, a simple pencil and sugar or semolina.

Draw any winter design on cardboard with a pencil. For children in kindergarten, the simplest one is possible. Then coat all the parts that need to be painted with glue. Now pour semolina or sugar boldly and thickly over the entire picture. You need to leave it like this until the glue dries. Then just lift and pour out all the remaining grains that did not stick.

You can make a panel with a winter theme from plasticine with your child. To do this, you will need thick cardboard as a base, plasticine and a simple pencil.

You need to draw a simple winter story on cardboard. Mom can help here. It could be a landscape, a Christmas tree, a snowman or any animal. And then decorate the picture, but not with paints, but with plasticine, as if rubbing small pieces of the desired color, filling in the details of the picture. A child can handle this well, only under the control of his mother.

A similar panel can be made from thread crumbs. Everything is exactly the same until the moment of coloring. Before coloring, you need to finely chop threads of different colors and place each color in its own container. Then coat each element of the design separately with PVA glue and apply crumbs of thread onto it. This is how we fill in all the elements of the picture.

Crafts from threads

Snowman made of threads

You can try to make a beautiful, openwork and large snowman from threads. What is needed for this:

two balloons and polyethylene;
white cotton threads;
PVA glue;
branches for pens;
cap and scarf for decoration;
buttons for eyes;
orange paper to make the nose look like a carrot.

Let's start tinkering:

We inflate the balloons and wrap them in polyethylene.
Wrap the balls randomly with thread coated with PVA glue. The thread must be passed through a tube of glue and wound.
Let the balloons dry, burst the air base, and pull out the balloons from the inside through any gap.
Glue 2 balls together and place the snowman on a stable surface. To do this, you can glue a ring from a strip of thick cardboard.
Now we decorate the snowman with a cap and a scarf, and glue twigs instead of hands.
We glue the buttons in place of the eyes and nose with a carrot from a rolled up paper cone.

In general, you can decorate such a snowman at your own discretion.

Christmas trees made from balls of thread

Now let’s make a cozy, homely and Christmas tree from balls of thread. To do this you need:

threads of different colors. It is better to take half-wool or acrylic;
thick paper, from which we will make the base of a cone or a purchased polystyrene foam cone;
any beads or flowers made from ribbons and tulle for decoration;
thick wire;
pot or empty low jar;
fabric, mesh or tulle for decorating a pot.
jute rope.
glue in a gun.
gypsum.

Let's start creating:

Let's make the base. First, beautifully bend a small piece of wire for the leg of the Christmas tree and wrap it with jute rope.
Dilute the gypsum thickly in a bowl and transfer the required amount into a Christmas tree pot, stick the stem in and wait until it dries.
We decorate the pot with fabric and decorate it with a cone or flower.
Now the Christmas tree itself. We make a cone out of paper or take a ready-made one from polystyrene foam and put it on the leg.
We wind balls from different threads. You can involve children in this activity; they will be happy to help.
Cover the cone tightly with balls, leaving no gaps.
All that remains is to decorate our cozy woolen beauty. Glue on beads, fabric flowers, or whatever you want.

You can make such a Christmas tree without a base from a pot and a stem, just a cone of balls. It's both easier and faster. You can add sisal balls to the balls, if you have them, or make balls from coffee beans by simply pasting over thick lumps of paper colored brown with coffee beans.

Winter New Year's wreaths

Such wreaths are classics of the genre. They decorate the room in winter, preparing for the New Year. They can be made from whatever is at hand; they can be used:

spruce branches;
cones;
chestnuts;
pieces of paper or cardboard;
acorns;
bay leaves;
dried flowers;
coffee beans;
paper flowers:
flowers made of fabric or ribbons;
just branches;
New Year's balls of different sizes;
the same skeins of thread and so on.

To make a wreath, the main thing is to understand the principle: first we make a base out of cardboard or buy a foam ring from a craft store and decorate the base as you wish. You need to stick the selected elements tightly onto the base, you can combine them, and then decorate them with a ribbon bow on the side and hang them on a string.

This wreath can be sprayed with glitter varnish or gold or silver spray paint.

Hello, friends!

And the white winter began suddenly, It came out and swept, swept, swept! Ah, I’ll decide for myself what to do tomorrow, And tomorrow –…. Remember this song by Sofia Rotaru, for some reason I was humming it when I decided to take on one very fascinating topic. The article will be devoted to crafts for the New Year. Do you know why? Yes, because again we were asked to bring something interesting and unusual to the kindergarten and school for a competition. So again my mother had to sit and rack her brains.

By the way, if you don’t go far and be primitive, then you can do it for a New Year’s exhibition, for example, or maybe? Yeah, in my previous notes we already conjured on this topic. I think that even Santa Claus will be happy with such work))). Ah ha ha. How do you think?

Still, there is nothing more wonderful when we all begin to prepare for winter and decorate absolutely everything in the room with beautiful winter decor. Be it shops, apartments or child care facilities, etc. Thanks to all this, the mood rises and a festive mood reigns, which happens once a year. The smell of tangerines, the chiming clock and all this happens when we are all looking forward to it on the night from December 31 to January 1. Do you agree?

Well, let's start creating, take note of the work option you like and quickly get to work. Choose the material at your discretion, it can be absolutely anything, use improvised means or junk, in general, everything that is called

Well, friends, are you ready to go into the world of magic? Then quickly turn on your imagination and ingenuity, let's take unnecessary things and make masterpieces out of them. If you still don’t know how to do something like this, then these master classes and a bunch of ideas will help you. Go for it!

For the first craft we will need:

glue gun
tinsel
paper
wire
CD disks - 12 pcs.

Stages:

1. Cut a pentagon from a sheet of paper with sides of 6.5 cm. Attach it to the disk, and where the vertices are, place points on the surface of the disk.

3. Now use a drill to drill according to the marks to make holes. Take the wire and fix all the pieces so that the ball eventually comes out.

4. This should be such a cute little thing, it already shines and shimmers.

5. Now all that remains is to do some magic, glue multi-colored tinsel along the contour of each circle.

Use a heat gun, just be careful not to burn your fingers.

6. In the end, the most wonderful charm awaits you, which is even a pity to give), and if you hang it on a chandelier or decorate a street Christmas tree with it, it will be absolutely wonderful.

By secret. You can take it with you to school or kindergarten and take first place at the exhibition. Good luck!

The next craft option for the New Year, or winter in general, so to speak, is a fairy-tale house. Wow, you say, I see how your eyes have already lit up. Do you want to create the same snow composition? Then contact me for templates, I will send them to everyone absolutely free.

These works are made in the style of vytynankas, but many people really like them. In addition, you can then decorate such products with tinsel or beads and sequins to create a festive atmosphere.

You will be given one template for the Christmas tree, but you will need to cut out two blanks from it, and then either coat them in the center with glue or sew them together. This is necessary for the volume effect.

If you don’t want that Christmas tree model, then take this newspaper beauty. In general, you know, I recently had a post on my blog, and there I gave so many amazing ideas on how to make a Christmas tree that wow, you will obviously be delighted. Therefore, if you want, you can go right now here. Well, if not, then do it this way:

The next cool option and you can even say a souvenir in the form of a deer. Moreover, it is made from an ordinary bottle of champagne or beer. You can take any fruit drink, depending on who you want to give it to later, or put it on the table on a festive night?

Next, the next point, you probably know that not a single winter is complete without snowflakes. So why not take advantage of this and make a whole mountain of them. They can be cut out using either a stencil or the accordion technique. This method allows you to make the product voluminous. Watch the instructions now. But in this article, you will find a lot more

So, the snowflake has been created, now what? The craft is of course ready. Or you can make 7-8 of these fluffs, of different sizes, and put them on a stick with a stand. Do you see what I'm getting at? Yeah, and make another New Year's masterpiece. Look, how do you like this miracle?

Charming and beautiful, see the next work, which is made of satin ribbons (can be replaced with paper strips). You need to fold each strip into a loop and glue it to a paper cone.

For preschool children, I suggest the work is approximately the same, but instead of needles there will be ordinary green balls.

If you want to amaze everyone with your ingenuity, then make toys from eggshells, and you can do this completely safely. Pierce two holes with a diameter of 5 mm and 2 mm in the egg on both sides, and then start pouring polyurethane foam into the largest hole.

That's the whole trick, from a small hole, then you will see foam as it appears, so stop filling the testicle.

Thus, such a “ball” will be strong and stable, and then decorate it with decoupage, as if you don’t know how to do this, you can read here, or wait for my next article on New Year’s toys. In a nutshell, you have to take a regular napkin with a pattern and separate all the layers, then leave only the last one, dip it in PVA and stick it on the egg, let it dry.

And now pay attention, another new product this year is a New Year’s craft made from salt dough. Wow, you fluff. This phrase stuck to me from a cartoon about the Barboskins. Well, glue a cone-shaped figure from cardboard; the inside of the almost finished product is already shown.

Do you know how to make dough? If not, then here is the recipe for you, written in the picture.

Using your hands, apply the dough onto the cone and smooth it out, making sure the layer is 1.5 cm thick.

Then use scissors to scratch the dough and it will look like needles and branches, like the crown of a tree.

Place a star on the top using a toothpick.

Well, after voila, into a preheated oven at 180 degrees.

You can decorate with beads or large beads; glue them to the workpiece.

For creative individuals, I suggest making magnets in this theme. To do this, take a cardboard and cut out a New Year's symbol from it.

Then tie it in a spiral with a thick thread and secure all ends with glue. Glue a magnet to one of the sides.

Now the most interesting thing remains, this is the design, I propose to do it this way in the form of coffee beans.

Or you can build a toy in the shape of a snowflake, use ice cream sticks as a base and glue them at the base.

And then glue colorful buttons.

Perhaps you will be blown away by another beauty from whom you will not take your eyes off))). Take a look.

By the way, they often make a little penguin in winter, just like from the Tororo cartoon, using plastic bottles.

Well, since in the coming year the symbol will be a pig or a wild boar, I propose to make it just that. And do you know what? Yes, from ordinary socks. See all the work steps in these pictures.

Or take approximately the same scheme for the work of snowmen.

A ball will be an excellent gift, as well as a craft. Which you can paint with acrylic paints and draw absolutely any design.

Or do decoupage with your own hands. Remember how to do this? If you find it difficult, this is how we decorated eggs for Easter. In short, you need to take a napkin and separate all the layers, leaving only the last one with the picture. Dip it in glue and apply it to the workpiece, let it dry.

Or go the other way; transparent balls can be filled with anything, for example, rubber bands. Looks nice, huh?

Here are a couple more ideas.

A ball with a photo inside looks magical and beautiful.

You can glue any bows you like.

And look what I found - an asterisk. Which will fit perfectly on a forest beauty, or will act as a keychain on a bag.

Crazy little hands even made something out of walnuts.

You can create any pattern or snowflake using PVA glue, then let it dry and remove it from the parchment. You can add more colors and color the sketch.

I also offer a version of paper fluff, and it will be voluminous and with fringe. First, learn how to fold the sheet correctly, since this craft is made based on origami. If you have any questions, write or read more

Now another toy, in the form of a snowman made of pompoms. The idea itself is quite simple, and the souvenir turns out lovely.

And by the way, you can use all the options discussed in the article for Christmas. For example, here is another masterpiece made from threads and glue, watch MK in this video and reel it in for yourself.

If you are interested in artistic activities, you can easily paint ordinary light bulbs and put knitted hats on them.

For those who are interested in soft fabric toys. Here are a couple of ideas for you.

Take felt, it turns out great work, look at the little pig). Moreover, it comes with a cutting diagram.

In general, choose the one you like.

Do not forget that for volume, a felt toy must be filled with padding polyester or cotton wool.

The next craft is made from egg packaging.

Souvenirs made from pine and fir cones for the home

I think I’ll start introducing you to the easiest options first, and then the more difficult ones. The first composition will be from an ordinary jar, tie the neck with threads, and hang real spruce or pine cones.

Fill the jar with pine branches and place a candle.

This work can be slightly complicated and all materials can be designed in an unusual way. Want to know more? Then see for yourself. A glass container can be decorated with regular semolina, which will look like a snowball on the product. To do this, paint the cereal white with chalk.

Then apply PVA glue to the jar and dip it into the semolina. Let dry.

After filling, decorate the neck and tie a bow.

Now decorate the cone with snow. Add more glitter to the semolina + and stir. You will need to dip the cone, and in order for it to stick to it, first dip the cone in PVA glue (a small piece of where the cereal will stick).

Thus, proceed according to plan, first dip in PVA, then in semolina and so on.

Another option, you can glue golden decorations, dip the cone into the glue, and then into them.

The product can be planted on the bark of a tree by gluing it with a heat gun, and you can also attach beads and a Christmas tree branch.

Using acrylic white paint will also make a nice souvenir.

Add a bow and beads.

In general, it will be a wonderful composition that everyone will go crazy about.

You can also easily cope with such a craft. Glue each cone into a decorative pot, but first paint them with acrylic paints.

Glue a star onto the top, as expected, so that the product reminds everyone of a Christmas tree.

Well, if you want a real beauty, then use a heat gun to glue the pine cones to the base in the form of a cone and decorate them with bows and other winter decor trinkets.

In addition, you can imagine such work as a wall decoration. Just remember that you need a foam ball.

Well, I couldn’t resist one more super option that I found on the gifts ru website: topiary. How charming and exciting it looks.

All work steps are written directly on the slides.

Master classes and ideas for paper crafts for the New Year

To be honest, last year we didn’t have much time to bring work to the exhibition. Therefore, we made this creation from cardboard and decorated it with plasticine. The stand was an ordinary plastic sour cream lid.

Or here’s another option: take a cardboard cone and glue any decorations on it.

And this year, the child was made by Thomas, they took an ordinary sleeve, covered it with paper and stuck on sweet souvenirs.

Well, what about Santa Claus, you can’t live without him, friends! Let's do it using origami technique.

Fold in the same way, I mean use the origami bunny technique.

Quite an unusual work in the form of a wreath, but it is attractive because it is made of paper arms, or maybe legs))).

Here's another idea, the work is made of corrugated paper. This is usually done for Christmas.

On one English-language website I saw such a work with wishes. You spin the circle, it rotates and a wish appears. To work, you will need two blanks of different diameters, on one of which a window will be cut.

To make the magic circle spin, make a hole in the center and glue a juice straw or toothpick to the largest circle. In fact, the idea is good, because you can use it to hold competitions and make jokes.

If you are interested in such a turntable, that is, all the templates and sketches are in Word format for printing, please contact me, I will send it by email for free.

It’s also easy to build a three-dimensional ball from newspaper tubes and cover them with aerosol paint. And then glue a ball or the symbol of the year onto it.

Now I also want to introduce one work that you may recognize, it is from our childhood. For it, you will need to make templates on office paper in advance, choose, there are more or less. Due to this, the ball will have a different volume and size. Make 5 cuts with scissors along the lines of each piece.

Well, in conclusion to this chapter I want to show you one more ball, it’s quite delicate. You need to first cut out a sample in duplicate using the kirigami technique. And then glue or stitch two blanks.

Here are some designs for you to cut out.

And here is the finished product.

We have already tried it with our family in our spare time. Don't forget to decorate with rhinestones or sparkles.

Also don't forget to add a rope or ribbon in the form of a loop.

Similarly, decorate the same blank with beads. Or put the beads on a safety needle and stick them into the workpiece.

Both the cloud and the snowflakes are made from cotton balls: by pinching off pieces of cotton wool, we compact them tightly into a fist until the fist is full. Having opened it, we get neat cotton balls. We glue some of it onto the cardboard outline of the cloud, and string some of it on a thread. We fasten the threads with snowflakes on the cloud - you're done!

Openwork snowflakes made of white paper look original on pendants.

The pendant can also be placed on the wall in a suitable place - for example, in a corner where a future exhibition of winter exhibits is being prepared.

November 8, 2018

Good afternoon dear readers. Today the article will be entirely devoted to crafts on the theme of New Year 2019. Of course, you can not bother with crafts, but go and buy your favorite toy or figurine. But it will not be as dear to you as the one you made with your own hands.

Also, the article will be very useful for those who have small children who go to elementary school or kindergarten. Since on the eve of almost any holiday, these educational institutions often ask children to make something at home, preferably in the style of the upcoming holiday. And then they hold a competition for the best craft. And of course, you want your child to take at least a prize.

And making crafts on a New Year's theme is doubly enjoyable, as it evokes the New Year's mood. The absence of which many adults complain about. We don’t have such complaints in our family. Because before the holiday, our house is transformed into a fabulous decorated house from handmade crafts. These include snowflakes and paper garlands and much more. In general, the introduction was a little long, I suggest we get down to business right away.

Before you decorate your home for the New Year, you need to make all sorts of decorations. You can also save a lot of money on this matter if you use old unnecessary trash for production, which is a pity to throw out and has nowhere to put it.

Required:

Tinsel
Glue gun
Wire
Old CDs 12 pcs.
Drill with a thin drill or awl
Pliers

Production stages:

From a cardboard sheet, cut out a template in the shape of a pentagon with sides of 6.5 cm. We apply the template to the disk and put dots where the vertices are. These points are for making holes in them.

We drill all the disks point by point, and then connect them using wire and pliers. At the end you should get a ball.

It should look something like this.

Next we glue tinsel onto each disc. We glue along the contour of the disk using hot glue.

This is what happens in the end. Such a craft and story can also be suitable as a New Year’s souvenir.

You can also make a beautiful wreath of pine cones. Although wreaths are not so popular in our country. Still, if you decorate your front door with such wreaths, it will look simply amazing.

You will need the following:

A few cones
Decorative elements
Paint and varnish in cans
Glue gun
Wreath base

Production stages:

As a base, you can use foam pipe insulation or a small hoop. You can also prepare a papier mache base.

We paint the base the same color as the cones and attach the cones to the base using hot glue.

At the end, you can open the craft with varnish to add shine and decorate it with decorative elements.

A wreath of pine cones looks quite beautiful.

Snowman made of threads and balls.

Well, who else but the snowman is the very first one associated with winter and the New Year. You can make it quite easily; you just need to collect all the necessary materials.

Required:

Balloons 5-6 pcs.
Tube of PVA glue
Skein of white thread
Decorative elements (ribbon scarf and hat)

Production process:

We pump the balloons with air and make them of different sizes.
One needs the biggest one, the other one needs a smaller one, and the third one needs an even smaller one. And two more very small, but identical. Then we wrap the balls with threads in different directions and coat each new layer with glue.
When the glue dries, pierce the balls and pull them out into their resulting shapes.
All that remains is to assemble the snowman using the same glue. And in the future I use my creativity to add eyes, mouth and nose to the snowman.

And also attach the hands. These will be two small balls. Here's what you can do from the materials presented.

Or here’s another master class on how to make a beautiful snowman from an ordinary sock.

You will need:

Scissors
Super glue
Scotch tape wide
Cotton or knitted sock
Threads
Several buttons

Production stages:

We cut the toe just a few centimeters from the heel line. We will use the part with the heel. Tie the sock tightly with a thread and turn it inside out. This will be the base of the snowman. We tie it in the part where we cut it.

And fix the figure in this position. Make a few turns and then tie the thread into a knot. We cut off the excess ends with scissors.

We make a scarf from a piece of fabric to disguise the threads.

From the second piece of the sock we make a cap by folding part of the sock several times. Apply super glue to the buttons and attach them to the snowman’s body.

To make the snowman's face I use multi-colored beads. Which I also attach with glue.

Santa Claus from a disposable plate

To create a beautiful and original frost case, you will need the following set:

Disposable paper plate
Scissors
Paints
Red pompom
Paper
Red cardboard
Eyes for toys

Production stages:

We cut a disposable plate into two parts. Cut just above the middle. And paint the inside beige.

From colored cardboard we cut out a large triangle larger than a plate.

From a sheet of white paper, cut out a strip 2 cm wide and two circles. Cut one of the circles into two parts. Next, we assemble the craft according to the picture.

Christmas tree made of cardboard and threads

You can create small souvenirs in the form of a Christmas tree and give them to your guests who come to celebrate the New Year with you.

You will need to cut out corrugated cardboard to cut out such a beautiful Christmas tree. Approximately 15-20 cm in size.

Then wrap it with threads. We attach each turn with regular glue or you can use hot melt glue. We attach a magnet to the back side.

Such beautiful Christmas trees can be created using this technology.

Snowflake made from popsicle sticks and buttons. It also turns out very beautiful and unusual.

To create such beauty you will need at least 3-5, and at most 7-8 ice cream sticks. We connect them into a star like this. Then we decorate with buttons, which we also attach with hot glue. At the end we attach a rope and hang it on the tree.

You can try to glue a house and a snowman out of cardboard and cover them with cotton wool. And make a small tree from a twig. You will get something similar to this picture.

Or try making a penguin like this from two bottoms from plastic bottles.

In the year of the pig, you can create such a funny pig. This beauty is made from socks and cotton wool. Watch the sequence and you will understand everything right away. In the same way, we made the snowman a little taller.

An ordinary Christmas tree ball, only painted by you personally, can be an excellent craft. Take a Christmas ball and apply plain paint on it; this will be the main background. And then color it however you want.

And if you have any old glass balls left, you can wipe off all the paint from them and fill them with rubber bands like this. It also turns out beautifully.

Or decorate Christmas balls.

Have you ever seen Christmas balls with a photo inside? See how this can be done.

Beautiful stars that we decorate with beads or seed beads will also fit perfectly into the interior of any New Year's beauty. Or maybe such a star will be a beautiful addition to your New Year's outfit.

And if you show your imagination, even ordinary walnuts can become beautiful New Year’s crafts or Christmas tree decorations.

Or maybe you would like to make these beautiful snowmen from old light bulbs.

This master class will also be useful to you. Because you can make not only snowmen. Look, I think this idea of creating crafts will be interesting to you.

Souvenirs made of fir and pine cones for the New Year

Crafts made from natural materials always turn out very beautiful and attractive. Let's start with the simplest and continue with the most complex.

It’s very easy to create a beautiful candlestick using pine cones and threads. You need to take a small jar, a few cones, natural thread and hot glue.

We tie a thread around the neck of the jar several turns and make a beautiful bow. We glue the cones with hot glue to the thread. It turns out to be such beauty.

We put the jar on a tray which we decorate beautifully with fir branches and the craft is ready.

If you want to make it a little more beautiful, you can decorate the neck of the jar with semolina, which from a distance will look like snow.

You need to first tint the semolina with chalk. Coat the neck of the jar with PVA glue and sprinkle the area in the glue with semolina. We tie a beautiful bow on the neck of the jar.

You can decorate pine cones in the same way. But for the biggies, we’ll prepare something cooler. Add some glitter to the semolina. Now coat the corner of the cone with glue and sprinkle with semolina and glitter.

You can do without semolina at all, just take golden glitter. And then follow the familiar pattern. In glue then in glitter.

Using white acrylic paint you can make these cones in the snow.

Add a couple of beads and a bow and you will get a beautiful Christmas tree decoration. Next, the decorated cones can be combined on our candlestick.

Now I propose to make beautiful Christmas trees from large cones. You will need small pots, acrylic paints, small stars and hot glue.

We attach the cones to the pot and paint them white or green. And we attach a small star on top.

Using the same principle, you can make a larger Christmas tree. We make a cone out of cardboard. The height depends on the number of cones. We attach the cones to the cone using glue. Decorate with beautiful bows and beads.

Now the craft is a little more complicated. This technique is called topiary. With the approach of the New Year, a bunch of craftsmen have appeared who make crafts in this style.

Master classes and ideas for paper crafts for the New Year

You can make a huge number of crafts from paper. And the simplest and a little more complicated. And as always, let's start with something simple, and then continue with more complex models.

The simplest thing you can make is a Christmas tree like this. It is enough to cut a circle out of colored cardboard, cut off a piece and roll it into a cone. Then decorate with stars or circles made of colored paper.
But here is a box of chips that was pasted over with sweet souvenirs and it turned out to be a train.

Or here’s a more complex souvenir, Santa Claus using the origami technique. How do you like this idea? If you learn how to do it, you can offer it as a New Year’s card.

You can make a bunny like this using the origami technique with the addition of appliqué.

If you have the desire and time, you can cut out the same paper and glue a beautiful wreath on a door or wall using paper handprints. I think that you can make such a wreath using the prints of the whole family.

Try making this unusual Christmas ball from colored cardboard. We cut several strips of the same length and width. Next, we lay them out so that they all connect in the middle. Then we make a hole and thread a piece of a cocktail tube onto the thread in the middle. There is a small bead at the top. Everything is simple and easy.

Do you have a huge amount of unnecessary newspapers accumulated at home? Then you can find a use for them. Let's make a three-dimensional New Year's ball for the Christmas tree from newspaper tubes. We make tubes and wind them layer by layer. Gluing each new layer. Finally, we paint with spray paints and the Christmas tree toy is ready.

At the end of this chapter, I offer a video clip on how to make a cool paper snowman.

This is a simple craft, but it looks completely different in the New Year. But all you need is a beautiful jar, a small Christmas tree, and a machine.

We attach the Christmas tree to the roof of the car, add some foam chips and ribbon to the lid.

At the end we decorate with New Year's decor and your craft is ready.

For those who have coffee beans, here is an idea to make a Christmas tree from coffee beans. We attach the grains to a paper cone and decorate with decorative elements.

Or you can use candy instead of coffee beans.

And here is a Christmas tree made from ordinary buttons. Gather buttons of different diameters on a thread and the Christmas tree is ready.

And of course you can embroider Grandfather Frost.

A Christmas tree made of beads will also look beautiful.

You can make a beautiful New Year's beauty from a plastic bottle. Just first you need to put it in a pot. We pour plaster into it and place a wooden stick as a trunk. We make a hole in the bottom of the bottle and put the bottle on the barrel. We attach the bottle to the pot with glue and decorate the Christmas tree with tinsel and toys.

Or take a foam ball and cover it with beads or beads. It also turns out to be quite original.

How to make a garland for a Christmas tree with your own hands

Probably the most accessible and cheapest option is paper garlands. And the simplest one is garlands of rings. Probably each of us glued such decorations from colored paper as a child.

Or make a rainbow like this out of colored cardboard.

Or here are some more ideas for creating paper garlands.

And if you spend a little more time creating a garland, you can make it very beautiful and original. I suggest you see what can happen if you try a little.

You can also use cotton wool.

Or buttons of different colors. It will look beautiful too.

And this option is specifically for a street Christmas tree, since this garland is made of ice. We make multi-colored ice cubes. The main thing is not to forget to put the thread so that it freezes in the mold.

Unusual crafts "Winter's Tale" for kindergarten for exhibition
