New Year's crafts made from cardboard.
All the children usually make drawings for the New Year with great pleasure - it helps them pass the time while waiting for the holiday. Very often drawings are prepared for the New Year in kindergarten,
but you can also draw a lot of beautiful pictures within the walls of your house, using a variety of techniques.
Snowman sponge drawing
It is convenient to make prints using a template, which can be easily made from a dish or cosmetic sponge. We cut out a simple shape - for example, a circle - and the stamp is ready.
When we use this stamp, their surface becomes more natural and uneven.
Glue the nose and eyes on top of the dried paint.
Glue on a scarf-ribbon and a hat.
Use your fingers or a brush to finish painting the snow.
The snowman is ready!
Herringbone pattern with cardboard roll
Can be used as a stamp - it will help you create a curly Christmas tree.
After applying glue to the Christmas tree, you can decorate it with New Year's balls and beads.
or paint the balls and garland with paint.
Herringbone gouache drawing
You can draw a New Year tree with gouache.
Cover a sheet of paper with blue paint. We wait until the paint dries.
Draw a sketch of a Christmas tree with a pencil. We draw the largest details of the picture - the trunk and branches.
We highlight the branches with light green paint.
Cover the entire drawing with large strokes.
Using a thin brush and a dark shade of green paint, paint the lower part of the spruce branches. We apply the drawing with small strokes.
We cover the top of the tree and the upper part of the branches with green strokes. This shade of green should be slightly lighter than the shade used for the bottom of the branches.
We color the entire Christmas tree with strokes.
Take a cotton swab and dip it in yellow paint.
Using pokes we draw a New Year's garland on the Christmas tree.
Using cotton swabs we draw multi-colored New Year's balls.
Using a hard brush, cover the picture with splashes of white paint. The effect is very interesting, but you have to do it very carefully so as not to stain the entire table. Using the same hard brush we draw snowdrifts.
The gouache drawing “Christmas tree” is ready!
Watercolor and pencil drawing “Herringbone”
Drawings for the New Year can be made in different techniques and with different materials. A very effective herringbone pattern can be made in a combination of pencil and watercolor drawings.
We will need to draw a sheet of paper. Draw a vertical line with a pencil along the center of the sheet and divide it into four parts. So we will designate the base, top and two central parts of the picture.
Draw three segments of the Christmas tree with a pencil.
We draw a star, balls and gifts.
Wet a sheet of paper with water and add light blue watercolor stains. We remove excess moisture and paint with a napkin and wait until the drawing dries.
Color the Christmas tree with green pencils.
Color the balls with a red pencil. To give volume to the balls, leave their central part unpainted.
Rub the balls with your finger. The light highlights on the balls become a little muted and look more natural.
We color the star and gifts with pencils.
We outline the star, gifts and parts of the balls with golden paint. Our wonderful “Christmas tree” drawing is ready!
Drawing of Santa Claus with pencil and paints
The drawing “Santa Claus”, made with pencil and paints, is bright and effective. Start your drawing with the head of Santa Claus.
Gradually, step by step, draw Santa Claus a robe, arms, legs, a bag with gifts and a festive staff.
Use yellow watercolor to paint the glow of the star on the staff.
Use dark blue watercolor to paint the background. While the paint is still wet, sprinkle it with salt. Once dry, the salt can be shaken off. You will get an interesting grainy background.
Now use bright yellow paint to color the star.
We paint the sheepskin coat and Santa Claus hat with red paint.
We draw the face, mittens and bag. We are waiting for the paint to dry.
Using a thin black marker, draw small details of the drawing.
Drawings for the New Year - ideas from the Internet

Drawing of Santa Claus - ready!
Good afternoon, today I am uploading a large article that will help you choose the theme of the New Year's drawing, look at the idea and think over its embodiment in your creative drawing. On New Year's Day, schools and kindergartens often conduct "New Year's drawing competition" and we, parents, begin to rack our brains to find a simple idea that our child can do. Exactly like this easy to implement I have collected drawings on the New Year theme here in one big pile. Here you will find stories with snowmen, penguins, polar bears, deer and Santa Claus.
Today in this article I will do the following:
- I'll show you how to draw snowman(in different poses and angles)
- I'll give you step-by-step drawings of New Year's characters(penguin, polar bear).
- I'll teach you
- I will offer simple techniques for images Santa Claus.
- And we will still learn draw beautiful Christmas decorations.
- And drawings - landscapes with the image of the New Year holiday.
So, let's begin our journey into the world of New Year's drawings for children and their parents.
How to draw a SNOWMAN
(simple ways)
In our New Year's drawings, we are used to depicting a snowman in the form pyramids of three rounds, topped with a rectangle-bucket. A well-established stereotype.
But this is the same as portraying a person only “ standing at attention, hands at your sides" If seasoned artists depict a person from a variety of angles and poses, then young artists can depict their snowman from the same angles.
Here's an example snowman portrait drawing. We draw only the head of a snowman, wearing a creative hat, and add a New Year's twist to our drawing - for example, we hang a Christmas ball on the carrot nose.
You can put a bird on the snowman's nose. Or try to depict lively emotions on the snowman’s face - rosy cheeks, a tilt of the head, a soft smile - and notice the direction of the carrot. It is not necessary to draw the carrot strictly sideways horizontally. The carrot drawn down and to the side (diagonally) gives the snowman a touching look. And a New Year's hat with a pompom will add the spirit of the New Year to our drawing.
Our portrait of a snowman can have a lively emotion - he can look with touching tenderness at a flying snowflake. Or stretch your paw-twig towards the falling snow and throw back your head and look for a long time at the skies generous with snow.
A portrait of a snowman may have a touch of solidity– a tall hat, a clear symmetry of the nose and a gracefully tied scarf. Or maybe a snowman in a New Year's drawing like a slow-witted lout catching his hat in flight, pulled off by the wind. Good work for the children's New Year's drawing competition.
Here is an example of a New Year's drawing-portrait of a snowman - simple and step-by-step master class.
New Year's stories
with a snowman and a bird.
The painted snowman can hold a small bird in his hands. If you are good at drawing with gouache, then you can draw such a bright snowman in a knitted hat and a woolen scarf - with a red bird in his hand.
And if you are a beginner artist, then you can depict the same touching story with a bird in watercolors. And then, using a black pencil, draw clear silhouette contours and small details in the form of buttons and a nest with a sparrow. A very touching New Year's drawing.
Like this New Year's duet of a snowman and a bullfinch bird Even a child can draw. Simple shapes, and light application of shadows along the cap (darkening on one side, highlighting with white on the other side of the cap - this creates a visual volume-convexity). And around the snowman’s face we also apply light shadows - we add a little light gray-blue to the white - and with this “bluish” white we draw shadows around the circumference of the snowman’s face - this way we get the effect of a convex spherical face.
And here’s an idea for a New Year’s drawing based on the same plot, where a bird sleeps wrapped in the tip of a long snowman’s scarf
Snowman with his friend teddy bear.
And here's another drawing oil on canvas. Or maybe gouache draw the same one. First, we draw simple silhouettes... then we paint each element in its main color (white, green, light brown) and paint them in one color. And then we add additional shadows to each color (with a darker shade of the same color scheme we shade the snowman’s belly near the scarf and the circle around the teddy bear’s nose). And then with white gouache and an almost dry brush we add a white coating on the face and belly of the bear and the hat and scarf of the snowman.
That is, you just need to look carefully at the sample and poke the shaded brush into the same places where shadows are applied in our New Year’s drawing. And continue until your drawing looks like the original.
And here are some more simple examples of New Year's drawings with a snowman. In the left photo the snowman is holding in his paws-branches Christmas garland of light bulbs. A simple silhouette - simple light blue shadows on the round snowman. And whitish strokes of white paint over the black silhouette of the hat. Everything is simple if you look closely and figure out exactly how it’s done.
And here’s another one in the right photo above - GIRL wraps a snowman in a scarf. It seems that the drawing is complicated, but in reality everything is simple. Let me describe how to make such a New Year's drawing with your own hands for a school competition. So that each of you CLEARLY AND CLEARLY UNDERSTAND that the most complex drawings are actually created in very simple and understandable steps. As in principle, any work is done on the general principle - start, continue and finish. Same with drawings. So let's see how a complex New Year's drawing plot is born from simple steps.
MASTER CLASS: How to draw a snowman.
STEP 1 - You first need to divide a sheet of paper into a white and blue background - cover it with gouache. Dry this background.
STEP 2 - use white gouache to draw the silhouette of a snowman. Dry it and add blue uneven shadows on the white sides of the snowman. They smeared the shadows as they applied them – evenness is not needed here. Dry.
STEP 3 - Use a pencil to draw a silhouette of a girl. The lines are simple. But if you doubt your abilities, then you can draw the girl’s template directly from the screen of your laptop onto a sheet of paper placed on the screen, and transfer it as a carbon copy to your canvas. If you need to enlarge on the screen girl size, you press buttonCtrl with one hand and the other hand at the same time roll the mouse wheel forward– the image on the screen will increase. The wheel back will decrease. And if, when enlarged, the image moves sideways beyond the border of the screen, then the left/right arrows on your keyboard will help you move the screen.
STEP 4 - Paint each element of the girl with its own color - carefully with a thin brush, slowly.
STEP 5 – Dry the girl’s face and then carefully draw a bang on it with an almost dry brush. Using the opposite tip of the brush handle, draw the eyes, mouth and blush of the cheeks.
STEP 6 - Then draw scarf lines around the snowman. Paint it red. Dry it and on the scarf (and on the girl’s hat too) use a thin brush with white gouache to apply a pattern of white stripes and crosses.
STEP 7 – Finish drawing small silhouettes. Nose, eyes, smile and snowman buttons. Pocket on a girl's coat. String ties on the girl's hat.
STEP 8 - Draw dark silhouettes of houses and trees in the background along the horizon line. Place blue shadows on the snow under the snowman and under the girl.
As you can see, everything is simple. If you break down all the work step by step - into simple and understandable steps. To avoid overwork, you can do the first 3 steps in one evening, and leave the remaining steps for the second evening. It’s more pleasant to work this way – without fatigue and stress.
Snowmen busy
(children's story drawings).
You can draw a whole group of cheerful New Year's snowmen riding on a swing. Or come up with your own plot. You can peek at him on canvases of famous artists. And make a parody of a famous work of art, only the way it would look in the world of snowmen. Snowy Mona Lisa, with a mysterious smile, for example.
New Year characters
BEAR in a child's drawing.
Now let's talk about other characters with New Year's appearance. These are, of course, polar bears. In red hats with white pompoms.
Bears can be drawn in different styles. In different cartoon genres. Here are some options for a children's drawing competition.
The leaders of drawing circles can draw such a cute New Year's teddy bear in gouache. The drawing, mind you, was taken from an ordinary table paper napkin.
And here's New Year's drawings with bears whose eyes are dreamily closed. One little bear is looking forward to opening a gift. Another polar bear listens to a bird singing. Cute New Year's motifs - simple subjects for children's drawings for the New Year. It can be depicted on a greeting card or as an entry for a New Year's drawing competition at school.
Here a small master class on drawing a New Year's bear on a greeting card.
But you can draw a bear not only wearing a classic red and white New Year's hat. The bear in your drawing may have a variety of New Year's paraphernalia(masquerade costumes, funny onesies in the Santa Claus style, knitted sweaters with deer, skis, skates, etc.). And you don’t have to be able to draw the whole bear - you can do something more cunning. And draw just a bear's head sticking out behind a pile of gift boxes(as in the right picture from the photo below).
PENGUIN in a New Year's drawing
for a school competition
And of course, a winter drawing with a New Year's theme - these are funny penguins. These birds are also considered northern, although they live at the south pole. But the South Pole also has snowy winters - so the penguin is also a New Year's character.
Here are options for New Year's drawings with penguins, which are also easy to depict using children's strength, with a little parental help.
You just need to look carefully and understand what steps you need to take in order to ultimately get this image (in gouache, watercolor, or crayons). The main thing is to take your time and let one painted element dry before painting the second.
Below is a fairly simple gouache drawing made by children's hands. It only seems complicated - because there are a lot of small black details on it (black lines on the scarf, rounded curls on the fur, loops on the balls. But in fact, look carefully at each element - and you will understand how simple it is.
STEP 1 - First, paint over the background of the sheet with blue gouache - stains and stains are welcome - even if the background color is not even.
STEP 2 - The penguin itself is an ordinary oval. First it was painted with white gouache. And then they made a thick black outline around the edges (including the protrusions of the wings).
STEP 3 - Then we draw a white hat - wait until it dries - and apply stripes of different colors to it one by one. Then we draw the scarf - also with white gouache - dry it, and apply stripes.
STEP 4 - Draw a New Year's tree on top with white color - dry it - and apply red oblique stripes to it.
STEP 5 - Draw the legs and beak. On the background we draw white lines of snowflakes (crosswise and diagonally, and round dots at the tips).
STEP 6 - Christmas balls - also just round spots of white gouache - and on top of the circle with colored gouache.
You can draw something like this penguin in the form of skittles- in a long New Year's cap. Also an easy-to-make penguin model.
Here are a few step-by-step master classes on New Year's drawings, where you can see how to draw a penguin yourself step by step.
Your penguin can be decorated with a variety of hats and gifts.
How to draw a New Year's deer.
The simplest images of a deer are a DEER FROM TWO PALM (left drawing in the picture below). Or deer FRONT VIEW. Everyone drew such a deer in childhood (a ball of a face, leaf-like ears, twig-like horns, and two columns of legs with hooves).
You can paint a deer in a sitting position (round tummy-pouch, two front legs hanging on the sides, and the lower legs spread slightly to the sides).
And your deer may also be funny fat man. A sort of Santa Claus-fed specimen. It’s generally easy to draw such a deer yourself - its figure resembles an upside-down coffee cup - add short legs with hooves, a red nose - dots of eyes, and cute horns. Light-colored belly (in the shape of an arch), a hat and a scarf. Everything is simple and accessible.
Your New Year's drawing does not have to contain the WHOLE BODY OF THE DEER - from the antlers to the hooves. You can limit yourself to a very schematic (triangular) image of a deer’s head - as in the left picture below.
Or draw a deer's head in a CUTTED VIEW (as if he is looking through the edge of his nose into your window) - as in the right picture below
Here master class showing how to draw a New Year's drawing with a deer yourself.
Most often, a New Year's deer is drawn with Christmas tree decorations on the horns.
This technique can be performed in different stylizations of drawings. This could be a child's drawing of a deer (like the picture above).
Or your doe may be a graceful female doe with thick eyelashes hanging demurely downwards. The Deer Lady is glamorous and majestic.
How to draw NEW YEAR
in the city, on the street.
And if you want to draw the NEW YEAR on the streets of the city, the festive atmosphere, cozy winter streets, Christmas trees in the city squares, then here is another selection of ideas for such New Year’s drawings.
Please note that all objects here are painted with paints. Then around the lines of houses it was made outline with a narrow gray frame along the contour of the paint(so that the elements of the drawing become more contrasting and the drawing acquires an overall stylization). The silhouettes of passers-by are round spots of faces, and trapezoidal silhouettes of jackets (just a spot of a jacket is applied with paint). Then, when the jacket silhouette dries, we take black felt-tip pen(or a marker) and on the spot of the coat we draw cut elements, pockets, collar, buttons, belt, cuff lines, etc.). In the same way, we highlight with a black marker subtle design elements– lines of roof tiles, window frames, etc.
If the size of the sheet of paper is not large, then it will be difficult to fit an entire street with houses. You can limit yourself to a Christmas tree in the square and draw a few children.
Here's a great idea for a New Year's drawing, where children ride on the skating rink.
Here's another idea for a New Year's city. True, here the city is depicted not in the picture, but in the form textile applications. But the compositional idea of arranging houses and a Christmas tree in the drawing.
You can draw a city from the TOP VIEW, as if from the wing of an airplane. And then place it on the wide dome of the sky Santa Claus flying on a sleigh.
Or you can not draw a crowded and crowded city, but just draw a small forest hut and a decorated Christmas tree nearby. And the retreating Santa Claus, who has just left his gifts under the tree.
These are the ideas for New Year's drawings that I have collected for you today in one pile. I hope that your drawing for the school competition turns into a happy family get-together with brushes and paints. I wish everything to work out - in a magical New Year's way. Let the soul of the New Year touch the tip of your pencil or brush - and flow into your New Year's drawing.
Happy New Year to Your Family.

New Year's crafts from CONES.
Here is a simple paper craft for children for the New Year - Santa Claus from a cardboard cone. It’s very easy to do it yourself if an adult helps you twist and staple a cardboard bag.
Paper cone rolls up from a regular SEMI CIRCLE made of cardboard- or not even from half the circle, but from its third ( the smaller part of the circle we take under our cone bag, the thinner and more elongated the silhouette of the cone turns out).
Glued onto the finished red cardboard cone white paper overlay in the shape of a beard(triangular shape - right photo, or oval with long fringe - left photo). After gluing the beard, glue it on top face oval(add a mustache appliqué on top of the face if necessary) – draw eyes, nose, cheeks. You can glue the legs of Santa Claus to the cone.
Such New Year's crafts are convenient to do with children in kindergarten - if you prepare red cones held together with a stapler in advance. Give children decorative options, details, glue scissors and let them turn a red cardboard cone into Santa Claus.
Here are a few more design options for the same paper craft for the New Year. In the first case, the beard is one semicircular piece of paper. And in the second case, the beard is several oval layers of paper ( and each oval is shorter than the previous one) and the edges of each oval are cut into fringe strips. Come up with your own design - with your mind and imagination - and bring it to life with your own hands.
And here is a DIY version of Santa Claus, which can be folded right away of three cones.
FIRST lower red cone(this is Santa Claus’s coat) – we glue appliques of Santa Claus’s hands onto the sides of this lower red cone.
SECOND medium white cone(this is the beard of Santa Claus) – we glue a face and mustache onto it.
THIRD upper red cone(this is Santa Claus's hat)
From the same THREE cones of different sizes you can make a Christmas tree for children.
And here is Santa Claus, made of two cones - the lower COAT and the upper FACE WITH HAT.
Craft template You can copy directly from your monitor screen if you place a piece of paper directly on the screen and trace the translucent image with a pencil. To enlarge the image screen - you need to press the Ctrl button on your keyboard, and with your other hand roll the mouse wheel forward.
And if the theme of Santa Claus and his Reindeer is to your liking, then on our website there are just such heart-warming article-lessons with master classes and templates
Well, we will continue, about the topic of cone crafts. In such crafts the cone can only be the BODY of the future character- and his FACE can be inserted into the slot on the top of the cone - as was done on the New Year's snowman craft in the photo below. A good and simple craft for kindergarten classes (for middle and older groups - children 4-6 years old).
And here is an original craft where a New Year's holiday couple is made from cones - Father Frost and Snow Maiden. Our mothers made this craft with their own hands on the forum. Very talented and skillful.

New Year's crafts made from cardboard
You can use regular school cardboard. Cut out the details of New Year's characters from different colors of cardboard and glue them together. Make a SUPPORT at the back so that the figures stand vertically. Or instead of a support You can glue a box (of tea or cookies) to the back wall, cover it with colored paper, and fill it with sweets if you wish.
The craft in the photo below has a bag of sweets glued to the back of the snowman. Due to this, the figure does not fall.
You can use patterned paper in the craft - the kind that gifts are wrapped in. This way your craft will be even more elegant - with polka dots or flower patterns, like the New Year's penguin in the photo below.
Here is a compact Santa Claus made of red cardboard. You can use formiam or hard thick felt instead of cardboard.
Here's an interesting way to make Santa Claus out of cardboard - an easy-to-make children's craft
You will find many more ideas with applique in the form of Santa Claus in a special article
You can make a three-dimensional cardboard pendant for the Christmas tree using other techniques. We form a New Year's character from cardboard and colored paper. And then we glue a belly to it, which in turn we decorate with rhinestones. A semicircular tummy can be made by cutting a foam ball in half, or make from salt dough, then bake or dry.
You will find a template for such silhouette crafts in our special article
And here is a beautiful craft for the New Year for the kindergarten - a Christmas tree made of coated white cardboard. We glue two sheets of glossy coated cardboard together. IMPORTANT!!! — glue sheets of cardboard using dry glue (glue stick, double-sided tape), without wet PVA glue, otherwise the cardboard will rise and go in waves.
You can glue two sheets, or even three.
As a result, we will get a solid white plate. We transfer the Christmas tree template onto it. Trace the template with a pencil and cut it out. We sew a fluffy green garland along the edge of the Christmas tree with thread or glue it on. We attach New Year's balls to the legs of the Christmas tree, hang glass beads and satin ribbons, you can decorate it in different ways, at your discretion. We fix the Christmas tree in a stand. To ensure that the Christmas tree stands well, we weigh down the stand with plasticine, a wooden board, or a book.

New Year's crafts FROM Ribbons.
And here are crafts made from textile ribbons. You can use stiff ribbons of coarse, dense material and force the craft to hold its shape (as is done with the flower craft in the left photo below). There, solid red beads also act as a rigid frame and hold the ribbon petals in a clear shape.
You can use a soft ribbon and string it onto a thin wooden skewer to create the silhouette of a Christmas tree. A very simple and quick DIY craft for the New Year.
The same idea of a Christmas tree made from ribbons can be developed and transferred to other New Year’s characters - as was done in the children’s crafts in the photo below. You yourself, with your own mind and your own hands, can create new versions of this idea - and use any creative idea from this site only as a STARTING POINT for your own AUTHOR'S IDEA.

New Year's crafts
FROM PAPER STRIPES.
And here are ideas for New Year's crafts, where the basis for creative thought is a base in the form of a ball folded from strips of paper of the same length. The balls are glued to each other - we get a base in the form of a HEAD and BODY. And then the work goes on - gluing the face, hands and other elements of personalization of the craft.
In the example below, we see that two balls make Santa Claus if you glue an applique of a beard with a face and a mustache to the front ball, glue hands in mittens and fur cuffs to the sides of the body, and crown the top of the craft with a white cotton wool pompom.
And here is an example of a children's DIY craft made from strips of paper where two balls turn into a snowman due to the eyes and nose of a carrot. Two round hands and an applique of a broom and shovel.
And a cheerful New Year's deer can be made from ONE ball. Please note that next to the deer there are flat stars - they are made according to the same principle - the strips are folded into a ball - and then flattened along the equator line of the ball.
And here is the master class itself, showing how to make such a three-dimensional New Year's ball from strips of paper. Strips are cut. On each of them we find the MIDDLE POINT. We thread the thread into a needle - attach a bead to the end of the threaded thread and use a needle to pierce the MIDDLE POINTS of each strip.
We move the pierced strips apart with rays in different directions - and then we pierce the ends of each strip again with a needle at a height - at the top of the ball. We secure all this with a bead on the top and then all that remains is to decorate the ball for the character or craft toy we need.
Using a similar principle, we can create such a children’s craft-toy for the Christmas tree from strips of paper (as in the photo below).
And here are alternative designs of strip technology. You see penguins that are made of stripes but are connected into a ball according to a different principle.
And in the example of the polar bear from the photo below, we see that the head part of the craft can be a ping-pong ball or a foam ball. And in the middle, beads can be strung on a thread (this will make the craft look more elegant). Think with your head, dream with your soul - and do it with your own hands.
A beautiful New Year's team for a competition in kindergarten or school.

New Year's crafts
FROM ROLLS.
You can make a lot of beautiful New Year's crafts from toilet paper rolls. You can make elegant Santa Clauses like in the left photo below. Please note that the beard on this craft is made of white lace. And the cap on the head is sewn from fabric (you can use colored crumpled crepe paper).
But the snowmen (in the right photo below) - you can make headphones from fluffy wire brushes. Scarves are made from pieces of fabric, and real buttons are glued on.
But the craft is an angel. Very delicate and easy to make. We cover the roll with paint of two colors - pink gouache at the top, white at the bottom. For the wing we take lace paper napkin(in the absence of one, you can simply cut out an openwork snowflake from paper) fold it in half and glue it to the back of the angel.
The most interesting thing is the angel's hairstyle - it only looks complicated, but in fact - the upper part of the hairstyle is ordinary yellow paper circle, which are around the circumference fringed– these fringes fall to the side of the roll in the form of a circular bang. And then On the sides we add strips of paper, first we twist the lower part of each strip onto a pencil (or run the blade of scissors along them so that they twist themselves into a tight curl). You will find a lot of ideas for paper angels in our article.
You can also make elegant Christmas trees and crafts from toilet rolls.
Here is an interesting idea for a round Christmas tree cut from a roll. We take the roll, flatten it into a plane, draw the legs of the Christmas tree on the sides of this plane, cut them out, and then flatten the roll back into a circle. Glue on rhinestones and a star.
Or the roll can only be used as a stand for a flat cardboard Christmas tree.
Rollo also makes excellent penguins. – the rolls must be covered with thick black gouache before making the craft. And so that during application the children’s hands do not get dirty with black paint and do not contaminate other parts of the craft, we must COVER our BLACK ROLLS with HAIR SPRAY - this will make the paint shine and stop staining your hands with black soot.
You can draw familiar features of your favorite cartoon character on rolls (as was done with the snowmen from the cartoon Frozen).
Or you can decorate the craft with additional cutting elements - as was done in the example of the deer in the right photo below. Here we cut out the crotch between the deer's legs (so that these legs, in fact, appeared). And we also cut off the upper part of the roll - leaving a tail-neck - on this bent tail we will glue the silhouette of the head.
We can come up with our own designs of familiar New Year's characters. It's so interesting to pick up a gray, unremarkable external roll-sleeve and turn it into a piece of the New Year's holiday.
But here is a children's craft made from rolls, but already cut into pieces. This can be made from ordinary flat cardboard, if you roll it into a tube using a stapler and cut it into the lengths we need. A simple and interesting three-dimensional craft for children for the New Year.
And also from rolls - you can fold it like this such a beauty - a big Christmas tree. It will look good in the office and in a kindergarten group. True, the rolls need to be assembled in advance and then painted for quite some time. There won't be enough gouache - it's better to buy a liter jar of white facade paint and a bottle of green color. Pour the color into white acrylic, stir and paint with a wide brush or sponge.

New Year's crafts
FROM BARPLE.
But here are New Year's crafts, which are made from a cheap and very convenient texture material - ROUGH BARP.
Dense burlap starches well and takes on a rigid shape. It can be painted any color and folded into the rigid shape of craft parts.
You can cut out petals from starched, dyed burlap and fold the flower. You can glue the burlap onto cardboard and cut out the silhouette of an owl - add appliques of wings and eyes with a beak.
You can make very delicate, beautiful crafts for the New Year from inconspicuous-looking burlap. For example, this mitten has acquired a New Year's chic thanks to lace, beads, bells and pine branches.
A simple piece of gray fabric can sparkle in your imagination. And turn into a deer with twig antlers or a cute New Year's bird.
You can cut out stars from rough canvas by simply gluing them onto cardboard (as in the left photo below).
Or by folding diamond-shaped rays into modules from burlap and making a star out of them (as in the right photo below).
You can cover an ordinary toilet paper roll with a piece of burlap and decorate it with a red cardboard edging and an applique of colored paper. And we will get a cute craft-basket for the New Year tree. A simple and interesting work for a competition in kindergarten.
You can stretch burlap like a canvas onto a picture frame and draw a New Year's picture on it. You can safely take such a New Year’s children’s craft to a competition at school or kindergarten. It will decorate any exhibition of New Year's children's works.
And I collected even more ideas for New Year’s paintings painted on canvas or paper in a special article

New Year's crafts
FROM BOXES
And here are crafts made from ordinary boxes. SMALL boxes of tea, cookies, toothpaste, cream, medicine are suitable. For large crafts, LARGE juice boxes, shoe boxes or office paper boxes are suitable.
A nose, a shaggy tree, ears made of colored paper, horns made of thick tree branches - and here we have a New Year’s craft deer. Or stick a nose, eyes, buttons on a box covered with white paper, tie it with a scarf and put on a hat - you get a simple snowman craft.
Using the same principle, any rectangular surface of the box can be decorated as Santa Claus, a penguin, or any New Year's character.
You can turn the box into a toy snowy house.

New Year's crafts APPLICATIONS.
And here are applique crafts for the New Year. You can make small shaped appliques on rolled cardboard - as pendant toys for the New Year tree.
The simplest applique for school or kindergarten is a snowman. But it doesn’t have to be done using traditional techniques. You can show your imagination and make a snowman from non-standard materials - gypsum plaster diluted in water, or from finely chopped crumpled paper.
Children's New Year's applique craft can be multi-layered. And it doesn’t have to be done on a rectangular sheet of paper. On the contrary, a children's craft will look more elegant if done on a round sheet of cardboard. And cover the edges of the sheet with paper lace cut from a large paper snowflake.
And here are more examples of volumetric convex applique crafts. Any character that has a muzzle or face can be made in the form of a voluminous applique if a triangular DOT is provided on the silhouette of the face. You can see these darts on the templates in the picture below.
We simply cut them with scissors (we make a cut on only one side of the dart) - and then we glue the side of the dart under the cut (hiding the dart in the gluing).

New Year's crafts NAPKIN HOLES.
But here are New Year's crafts that can decorate your holiday table. The fact is that the Santa Clauses we see below are attachments for table napkins.
In the first case (in the left photo below), we make a bag out of spare paper, glue a beige face, a white mustache, and a white edging on the hat onto it (but do not make a beard). Next, we take a white napkin, fold it like a beard and put it inside the bag - part of the white napkin sticks out of the bag, reminiscent of the beard of Santa Claus.
In the second case (in the right photo below) we cut out a white circle from thick white paper (or cardboard). On the upper side of the circle we draw a face, a nose, and glue on a mustache. AND MAKE A SLIT over the straight line of the face. We fold a large red table napkin into a sharp triangle and insert the sharp end of the triangle into the slot - pull it through and get... at the top (above the slot) part of the napkin looks like a red cap... at the bottom under the beard, part of the red napkin looks like Santa Claus's fur coat.
A simple craft that your children will really like, especially since you can make several of these crafts for all the guests invited to the festive New Year's table.
And here are the napkin holders, which are made from cardboard rolls from toilet paper. Also a simple solution and a fun children's craft - for a garden or school on New Year's Eve.

New Year's CRAFTS-WINDINGS.
And here are ideas for simple children's crafts, where a cardboard silhouette is wrapped with colored threads or thin ribbons of bright colors. So you can wrap a triangle with threads, sew a couple of rhinestones or beads on it and we will get an elegant Christmas tree craft.
You can pull the threads through the holes (punctures with a hole punch) - like in the snowflake craft from the left photo.
Or thread the threads through the slits - like on the round Christmas tree decoration crafts from the right photo below.
You can combine any New Year's idea with the technique of thread winding. And get original and simple crafts for children. For example, this is implemented on crafts with a NEW YEAR'S DEER from the photo below.
The brighter and richer the color of the threads, the brighter and more festive your children's craft will be. Bright ribbons, adhesive rhinestones and stars cut out of thick foil will only add completeness to the thread craft.
And if the mother or grandmother in your family loves to crochet, then you can make crocheted New Year’s crafts - small or even large.

New Year's crafts PENDANTS.
For a competition in a garden or school, you can make a larger-scale craft. For example, a beautiful New Year's pendant.
The general meaning of such a craft is that there should be a large holding part at the top and smaller elements of the overall craft design should emanate from it on strings.
You can hang a variety of pendant crafts on a lamp or on a window ledge. Making them from openwork paper napkins for confectionery (as in the photo below) is very simple and quick.
Even from pages of scrap paper you can make bright New Year crafts and pendants. If only I had the desire and a little time. It's really not difficult. And even from the photo it’s clear how these paper modules are made and how they are assembled onto one central round piece - just with glue.

NEW YEAR'S WREATHS.
And here is one of my favorite themes for children's New Year's crafts. Children simply jump with pleasure when you offer them such a serious craft. They love the donut-shaped format and love that the result is that their work can be used as a real Christmas decoration that hangs on their family's door year after year.
In this article I will give just a few ideas to get you started. But in the future I plan to make a separate article on children’s crafts-wreaths for the New Year, and then the link will work here.
In the meantime, let's look at the basic ideas for creating the basis for New Year's wreaths. We will make the base in the form of a bagel. A standard A4 cardboard sheet will be too small in circumference. Therefore, the base for such a wreath can be cut from a large sheet of corrugated cardboard packaging - a pizza box is ideal.
If there are no large cardboard sheets (especially if you are preparing such a craft for a whole kindergarten group), then you can cut out SEMI CIRCLES separately from cardboard, and then use tape to connect them into one solid ring. So that in the place where the half rings are glued and joined the flimsy fold didn't work out we must strengthen the gluing area by slipping pieces of hard cardboard under it.
And we give this ready-made, wrapped blank to the child and let him figure out how to decorate his wreath. You can offer him templates or ready-made cut out figures and decoration options.
Or you can make pretty wreaths out of double-sided green cardstock—like these—with a bright red paper bow.
You don't have to wrap the donut base if it is completely covered with a finishing applique, as was done on the Christmas children's wreath in the photo below.
Or you can not glue the wreath ring, not wrap it, but paint it over with gouache. Dry and paste over with appliques - for example, these snowmen-snowflakes.
Also, a regular paper or plastic plate can serve as the basis for the Christmas wreath ring. We cut out the bottom from it and then decorate it according to our design plan.
Wrapping a wreath can be done quickly using thick woolen threads. Or knitted threads (made from knitted fabric cut into strips. You can decorate such a wreath with natural materials, figures made of thick felt, cardboard appliqués.

New Year's crafts made from felt.
(nice and fast).
You can make quick, bright crafts from thick felt. Here is a snowflake candlestick, it is created from a flat sheet of felt. I adjusted the diagram below to fit the size of a felt sheet of 30 by 30 cm. But you can reduce the picture to a size convenient for you by copying it onto a sheet of Word and pulling the corners of the image.
If you buy green felt in two or three shades of green, you can quickly make a Christmas tree like this with your own hands - a craft consisting of flat pancakes, which are slightly pulled together with a needle in the center (to create a wavy surface of the disk).
That is, in the center of the round felt, draw a small circle with chalk, follow it with stitches of thread - and then tighten these circular stitches (to create a bulge in the center (like a hat with large brims). We also make disks with a tie in the center - of different sizes , alternating shades of green and assembling our Christmas tree like a pyramid.

New Year's crafts from PLATES.
From plastic plates you can make not only the bases for Christmas wreaths, but also any New Year's characters. The round shape of the plate easily turns into the face of a snowman, deer, Santa Claus, or penguin.
You can cut the plate as you wish - to suit any of your plans. If a round shape doesn't conjure up a Christmas craft in your mind, change the shape. Make a semicircle - and now the face of Father Frost with a sculpted beard appears.
Cut the circle of plates into quarters - and here they are unobtrusively folded into a Christmas tree. All that remains is to take green paint and colored beads.
You can cut a truncated trapezoid from the circle of the plate and turn it into the head of a Christmas reindeer.

New Year's crafts
from a CASE from eggs.
And here are the ideas for the most inexpensive crafts for the New Year. Ordinary paper egg cassettes. Their convex rows of cells will help give birth to many New Year's crafts. Your imagination will breathe life into these cardboard honeycombs - and bright colors will give new life to old packaging.
If you work as a kindergarten teacher, then you can find this material on the first floor of the kindergarten; several large egg cassettes are thrown out in the kitchen every day. Chefs will be happy to become your regular suppliers of this creative material.
You can cut out several rows of cells at once from a cassette maker and turn them into a bright Christmas tree or a convex snowman.
You can cut out individual cell bottoms and use them to form a snowman pyramid.
You don’t have to cut the cassette box at all and make a team of New Year’s reindeer with a sleigh for Santa Claus from a whole one.
Even one small cell can become a cute little New Year's craft - a tiny mingguin or a little deer.
And to make the little ones look like solid children’s work, they can be surrounded by decorations - winter surroundings. Christmas trees or ice floes, as is the case with penguins. Pieces of ice floes can be cut out of foamed plastic - such liners are in your winter boots, or they are used as pads when transporting fragile goods or technical devices. Or you can just go to a hardware store (or to the construction department of the market 
a) and buy a meter of thick insulation for the walls there - it also has the same structure.

FROM PAPER FANS.
We can also make crafts from an easy-to-design material - round fans folded from paper. The simplest design is a Christmas tree. Here we stack the fans on top of each other in a festive pyramid - we get a Christmas tree with our own hands.
Here is a visual master class showing the general principle of creating all-round fans. The main thing is to take a VERY LONG strip - so that its length when folded like an accordion is enough to round it.
If you don’t have such a long strip, you can fold 2 separate strips and then glue them into one common long accordion-snake.
And by the way, if you make a pattern on such an accordion on its edges - and on its tips - then when you turn the fan into a round shape, we will get an openwork snowflake. You can also make an independent New Year's craft with your own hands.
Paper fans can be used as decorative elements in the construction of multi-layer Christmas tree applique toys made of paper.
And you can also use your imagination and invent original New Year's volumetric applications from such paper fans.
The simplest thing that you can quickly and easily do with your own hands is a Christmas wreath craft. Just a base ring made of cardboard and a bunch of decorative fans to decorate the donut base of the wreath.
These are the ideas you found for yourself and your children today. Now the matter remains small. Evaluate the materials available at home. And get to work.
Making a piece of a magical holiday with your own hands is already a small miracle. And the New Year's spirit of happiness consists of small miracles.
Let your hands create happiness. Happiness for the next New Year.

Happy New Year to the author of this article, Olga Klishevskaya.
All children love to draw, and most of them show aptitude for fine art from a very young age. Already from about one year of age, the baby takes a pencil in his little hand and begins to draw his first strokes. After some time, he will begin to draw better and better, and his pictures will acquire distinct outlines.
All kindergartens and schools regularly hold various competitions and exhibitions of children's drawings dedicated to the holidays. New Year is no exception. By drawing one or another picture on a New Year's theme, both at home and in a children's institution, a child can get acquainted with the history of this holiday, learn the features of New Year's celebrations in other countries and much more.
In addition, creating any work on the theme of New Year and Christmas can support the magical fairy-tale mood that always settles in the souls of children and adults on the eve of these magnificent holidays. In this article we will tell you what children's New Year's drawings can be made in gouache or pencil, and what themes are most often found in such works.
Ideas for children's New Year's drawings for children
Of course, the most important characters in children's drawings on a New Year's theme are Father Frost and the Snow Maiden. They are the ones who take part in all theatrical performances on the New Year theme and bring such long-awaited gifts that kids happily take out from under the tree.
You can draw it in different ways. Today, each child has his own vision of these characters, so their image may differ significantly. As a rule, Grandfather Frost is depicted in a bright red fur coat, warm mittens and felt boots, while the Snow Maiden, in turn, is “dressed up” in a beautiful blue robe.
The constant attributes of Father Frost in children's drawings are his long white beard, a staff and a large bag of gifts, and his granddaughter is usually drawn with a long braid. In addition, these characters are often depicted on a sleigh drawn by reindeer.
Another heroine of New Year's drawings is the elegant Christmas tree, which is installed in every home shortly before the arrival of the magical night. The youngest children draw this green beauty schematically, while older children try to ensure that their Christmas tree is no different from a real fluffy forest spruce.
Also, many boys and girls love to draw large and small snowmen. On the face of this character you can depict a funny smile, small eyes and a nose in the shape of a carrot, and on the head - a bucket or any other object that imitates a headdress.
In some cases, the theme of a child’s drawing becomes simply a snow pattern, which is most easily depicted using watercolor or gouache. Often similar pictures are drawn on glass or mirrors.
Typically, children's drawings on a New Year's theme, made with paints or pencils, are designed in the form of greeting cards, which the child can later give to his friends, relatives or teachers. In this case, the drawing itself can be drawn directly on a sheet of cardboard or the finished picture can be glued to the template. In addition, to create a full-fledged postcard, you will have to add a congratulation text, which can be printed on a computer or written by hand.
In any drawing you can depict not only popular New Year's characters, but also the plot situation in which they participate. For example, a child can draw other children dancing around a decorated Christmas tree, parents giving a gift to their son or daughter, and so on.
