Of course, you can’t do without a Christmas tree. Some will install a real forest beauty, others will install an artificial one. But besides the big hero of the occasion, you can also make several small Christmas trees and place them in the rooms. Let the holiday be felt throughout the house!

You can make a Christmas tree at home from any material, from sweets to books. Today we will talk about how to make a New Year's symbol from paper. Simply put, take scissors, glue, paints... and get started.

Using colored paper You can make a Christmas tree of various modifications, from flat to voluminous. Yes, at least whole forest spruce!)

This beauty is very easy to make! We will need a sheet of colored paper or cardboard and scissors. Cut out a square and bend it as shown in the picture.

And the final stage:

New Year's decor is ready!

And the simplest option is to cut out two identical blanks from colored paper. After that, we bend them lengthwise and glue them together. The result is a tree like this. Decorate it to your liking.

Another easy option. We make a cone out of colored paper, decorate it and get a stylized Christmas tree.

Another simple option for making a stylized Christmas tree. Cut out a triangle from paper. Take the right one wooden stick, she will be a tree trunk.

We attach a base to the trunk so that the future tree stands vertically, for example, a cork or a piece of plasticine. Now we string the paper onto a stick, like a sail on a ship. And here is the result.

Is it truly original and wonderful?

Making a Christmas tree from corrugated paper with your own hands step by step

For this craft you will need corrugated paper and cardboard. You can choose paper of any color to make your New Year's decor unusual and match your interior.

Watch in this video a master class of 5 options step-by-step production Christmas trees made of corrugated paper on New Year 2019:

Now let’s describe the manufacturing process in a few words and photographs.

We cut out a sector from cardboard - two quarters of a circle and glue it into a cone.

The cone will serve as the trunk of the future Christmas tree.

Now let's start creating an analogue of branches and needles. There are several ways you can go here. You can make Christmas tree branches in the form of a belt around a cone. To do this, cut a strip of paper about five centimeters wide and long enough to completely go around the cone. We thread a thread along the inner edge of the strip that will be adjacent to the cone, stepping back half a centimeter from the edge. After this, roll the strip into a circle.

We make several such circles, and they should all be different in size - one smaller than the other. After all, they will fit on a cone like rings on a pyramid: at first big ring, then smaller, etc. So we put them on the cone. It turns out something like a “skirt”.

To prevent the rings from falling off, glue them to the cone. As a result, we get such a beautiful Christmas tree.

Instead of a cone you can use wooden rod, onto which we string circles made of paper.

We make the circles ourselves as follows. Take a strip of paper and fold it into an accordion shape. We fix it in the middle with a thread.

After that, we fan it out.

Now take the two halves and glue them together to make a circle. We also make circles of different sizes.

We string them onto the rod, starting with the largest and ending with the smallest. The result is a Christmas tree.

The process is more labor-intensive than previous options, but the result is wonderful.

How to make a Christmas tree from paper napkins

A Christmas tree made from paper napkins looks very beautiful. Here, just as in the version described above, a cone is used as a base. However, roses made from napkins are glued onto it. As a result we get:

We take the napkins, put them in a pile and fasten them in the center with a stapler. After that, cut out a circle from them.

The first layer is crumpled towards the middle. Then we do the same with the next layer.

And in this way we make all the layers so that the result is a rose.

You will need to make a lot of these roses. How much is difficult to say. It all depends on the size of the base - the cone.

Now we glue the finished roses to the cone, starting from the base to the top. We decorate with beads and as a result we get a beautiful Christmas tree.

Christmas tree made of paper - options for making a paper tree

Here is an option for making a paper Christmas tree that is suitable for small children. The fact is that the Christmas tree is made from the contours of a child’s palm.

Roll a cone out of cardboard. Next we take green leaf paper and child. He applies his palm, outlines it and cuts it out. You will need a lot of such palms. Now we take the cut out palms and glue them to the cone. It turned out to be a wonderful Christmas tree.

Continuing with the cone options:

As you can see, the cone is good in any form).

You can use wrapping paper.

How do you like this stylish little thing from old glossy magazines?

It is made easier than steamed turnips).

Another very simple applique style option that can be easily made by a child. Take a sheet of colored paper as a background. Next, we need several sheets different color. We cut strips of paper from them about half a centimeter wide. Their lengths are different: the first one is long, each subsequent one is slightly shorter than the previous one. We cut them, now we glue them onto the background sheet. Glue a star on top. The craft is ready.

Below is a video that shows how to make Christmas trees out of paper.

Christmas tree made from newspaper tubes

The Christmas tree can be made from any material. One of the simplest is a newspaper (although they are already disappearing from our lives). Tubes are rolled from it and then intertwined with each other. As a result, we get the following craft.

You can’t immediately tell that it was made from newspaper. The tubes can be painted in any color and the Christmas tree will be colored.

It all starts with what we do a large number of tubes. To do this, take a wooden stick and use it to twist newspaper sheet. Lubricate the edge with glue so that the tube does not unravel. We make a cone out of cardboard. We put it on a sheet of paper and start weaving. We glue the first row in the form of a pentagon.

Now we take the bottom tube and place it on top of the other. We take the next bottom one and put it on top again, and so on.

Thus, intertwining the tubes, we raise the “braid” to the very top.

We cut off the remaining long tubes at the end and attach a separately made star top.

The Christmas tree is ready. You can leave it white, or you can paint it.

There is another way of weaving:

And another model of the Christmas tree:

Making a Christmas tree from origami modules according to the diagram

One of the options for making a Christmas tree is to make it using the origami technique. Of course, this option is somewhat more complicated than all those described earlier, but the result is very impressive.

First you need to make modules. To do this, use the following diagram.

Approximately 650 such modules need to be made for a Christmas tree 20 cm high. Done. Now we collect the branches of the Christmas tree. We fasten the modules as follows: In the first row - 2 modules, in the second - 1 module.

We assemble the third row by attaching two more modules to the corners of the second row module. We insert it into the pockets located nearby, as a result the outer corners will stick out to the sides.

We assemble the twig, alternating first one, then two modules in each row.

We make either five or ten such branches. The splendor of the Christmas tree depends on their number. Now we glue the branches together, forming a circle.

You need to make several such circles. Depends on the height of the tree. For the trunk we use a wooden skewer or stick. We stick it into an eraser, plasticine, polystyrene foam - whatever is at hand.

Now we put the finished Christmas tree circles on a skewer. Glue the first row to the base. Then each subsequent row is glued to the previous one.

Having collected the entire Christmas tree, we make decorations for it. Below is a diagram of the assembly of another version of the Christmas tree from ready-made modules.

How to make a voluminous Christmas tree out of paper at home

Below are some pretty interesting options making a three-dimensional Christmas tree. The first option is that the Christmas tree is made from paper strips folded with ribbon and placed on a stick-trunk. We collect according to this scheme.

In the second option we take Blank sheet paper: white or colored - green. We bend it in half and draw the contours of the Christmas tree. You can use these stencils.

Or like this.

For one Christmas tree - three stencils. Cut along the lines. After which all three blanks are glued together and we get Christmas trees like this.

And finally original version Christmas trees big size, which glows from within. To make it you need carton boxes, from which we make pyramids. We dress each other. We put a lamp inside. As a result, we get such an original design.

Below is a pattern diagram for Christmas tree pyramid modules.

With a minimum of materials, but a maximum of desire, you can make something like this:

Here is also a worthy decor option:

Here are very laconic and stylish Christmas trees:

These are like this interesting crafts, I think they will decorate your home in new year holidays. Good luck and Happy New Year everyone!

In addition to the main Christmas tree in the living room, which is large and richly decorated, you can make a Christmas tree for each room with your own hands. Our master class is devoted to how to make it out of paper. But first, let's look at which paper Christmas trees are popular. They can be flat (on a wall, a postcard, a box with a gift) or three-dimensional (a cone, a “book”).

A very convenient material for making a cone-based Christmas tree is corrugated paper. The cone can be made from cardboard, thick paper, or buy a plastic blank. Strips of corrugated paper are glued onto the cone in a circle or spiral from bottom to top.

Using another technique, individual petals are made from corrugated paper. Both the stripes and petals can be made in one color, or you can take several similar shades, then the tree will turn out more picturesque, more natural.

You can make your Christmas tree-cone unusual by using not green, but, for example, pink corrugated paper.

You can decorate it with sparkles, sequins, buttons, bows. Or collect beads on a string and hang them on the Christmas tree, or you can just let her wear her beads.

Instead of corrugated paper for making pine needles Christmas tree, you can use ribbons, fabric, lace.

You can corrugate the paper by making small or large folds on the sheet and gluing the parts to the cone.

A bottle of champagne can serve as a cone, and instead of toys, candies are woven into paper needles. This bottle can be both a table decoration and a gift.

There is even an origami technique, where the sheet is folded many times, resulting in very neat geometric models.

The most realistic spruce branches are obtained when cuts are made on strips of corrugated paper, needles are twisted, and the paper is wound on wire. Small branches are then collected into larger branches.

Flat paper Christmas trees

Corrugated paper can not only be glued to a cone. It can be mounted directly on the wall, which is very convenient if you have limited space. A Christmas tree on the wall can be made from anything, just maintain a triangular shape and tiering. Thanks to the simple shape of the Christmas tree, it can be made up of any objects and materials: from paper stickers to shelves hung in the shape of a Christmas tree.

Christmas tree made of paper

There is another way to make a three-dimensional Christmas tree, without using a cone at the base. If you make 2 or more identical parts of a whole Christmas tree out of paper, stitch them along the vertical axis and lay them out like a book, you can get a very impressive tree.

We suggest making just such a Christmas tree. If you choose a carved stencil, it will become as elegant as lace.

Before making a Christmas tree out of paper, let's collect everything necessary materials and tools. The materials we will need are: a stencil pattern, watercolor paper and gouache. The thicker the paper, the better the tree will keep its shape after painting. Watercolor paper is designed for strong wetting; the water contained in the paint will not warp it, but printer paper and drawing paper will not work.

You will also need tools: a sharp paper knife, paper clips, 2 brushes, a dish sponge, a needle and thread. Choose a stationery knife with break-off blades or a small construction knife. We will paint the Christmas tree with a large brush or sponge, and with a small brush we will draw stars and the top of its head.

First we print the stencil. Take 2 sheets of watercolor paper and put a stencil on them, securing them with paper clips along the edges.

It is important that the sheets do not move when cutting. Place many layers of newspaper under the bottom; it is easier to cut on a soft surface and you will not damage the table.

Cutting openwork blanks is the longest and most difficult stage. When it's finished, the most enjoyable creative part comes.

Now the parts need to be sewn. First, you can take a thicker needle and, like an awl, make punctures along the stitching line at a distance of 0.5 cm from each other. Then sew along these punctures and hide the threads.

It's time to start painting the Christmas tree with green gouache. Gouache is good because, like all water-soluble paints, it dries quickly, lays down in a dense opaque layer, covering all previous layers, and it produces a bright matte surface.

After green paint Once it dries, which will happen within an hour, you can start painting the details of the Christmas tree. Our stencil is very convenient in this regard. The stars are well cut and painting them is not difficult. I had silver, yellow and red paints. Instead of silver, it will work well white gouache with a drop of blue or red. Snow will be bright white, so it is better not to use it so that the details do not merge.

All that remains is to revive the Christmas tree with snow - drops of white gouache. We spray them evenly with a large hard brush or broom, preferably in the center. There is no need to try too hard to do it carefully, the snow will sweep as it pleases.

So we learned how to make a Christmas tree out of paper. This method is low-cost and fast, which means it is possible to do a lot Christmas trees using watercolor paper and gouache. Many of your friends will love this Christmas tree as a gift, because it can be placed on New Year's table, windowsill. You can make this Christmas tree flat from one piece. Then it’s good to hang it on a wall, window, glass door.

Simple paper Christmas trees

If you need a very simple way to make a Christmas tree out of paper, it is better to immediately take colored sheets. If the tree is without a frame, then thick sheets are needed: cardboard or thick colored printer paper.

If the tree has a book structure, it would be better to use PVA glue, and New Year's toys Make it out of colored plasticine balls or cut it out of self-adhesive paper.

Quickly make Christmas trees from corrugated circles of various diameters.

Before the New Year it is very popular to make Christmas trees out of paper.

To make this craft you will need green corrugated paper, PVA glue, green cardboard, scissors, and a toothpick.

Before you start making the Christmas tree, you should prepare the main tool for rolling paper “rolls”. To do this, the edges of the toothpick are cut off. Make a small cut on one side with a knife, slightly dividing it in half.

It’s not difficult to make such a Christmas tree

Stages of making a Christmas tree

Draw on cardboard using a compass big circle. Next cut it out. This will be the basis of the future Christmas tree.

1. In order to roll the resulting circle into a cone, it should be connected in half and cut along the fold. Form a cone from the resulting semicircle. Glue the junction of the edge of the cone with its base with glue. Wait a few minutes to allow the glue to bond the cardboard well and dry.
2. To make strips for quilling, take green corrugated paper and apply 1.5 centimeter wide sections on it.
3. Make frequent cuts along the entire length of the resulting ribbons, without reaching the edge. This will create a fringe of tree needles.
4. To make the main element of paper rolling, a spiral, one end of the strip is inserted into the forked part of a toothpick and a piece of paper is wound along the entire length onto the toothpick. In this case, it is better to twist the toothpick itself, and not the tape. To obtain identical elements, try to twist evenly and neatly.
5. To prevent the rolled paper roll from unwinding, the free end is glued to the base. Let the glue dry.
6. After all the elements are made, to give them the correct volume, you need to carefully fluff the cut fringe on them.
7. Glue the prepared paper rolls onto the cone. It is better to start doing this from the top of the cone. To do this, the pointed end is smeared with glue and the element is put on it.
8. Press the part. Next, cover the entire cone with fluffy spirals.

The Christmas tree will look brighter if it is decorated with bows and balls made of corrugated paper. To do this, you can roll it out colorful balls or squares connected twice, tied in the middle with a thread. Done Christmas decorations stick.

Such Christmas trees will create a festive atmosphere in the apartment.

• Next, use a toothpick to start making paper rolls. To do this, insert one edge into the cut on the toothpick made with a knife and twist it evenly. Instead of a toothpick, you can use wooden kebab skewers or a regular rod. Then you can simply wind it in the middle of the selected tool.
• In order for the resulting spiral to be free, it is better to release it. When it opens up a little on the table, fasten it to the selected diameter.
• For a more interesting Christmas tree, the spiral bases can be twisted into different diameters.
• It is best to start laying out the Christmas tree on cardboard from the top, taking the smallest element. They glued everything in the shape of a cone. It can be done in an uneven order.
• The Christmas tree can be decorated with decorations in the form of twisted spirals of very small diameter or with beads.

You can use colored paper to make spirals.

Christmas tree made of pine cones

You can make a very original Christmas tree with your own hands from pine cones. But we will not use the whole cones, but will use only their scales so that the tree is not too bulky.

So, first, let's separate its scales from the cone. This can be done with a sharp knife, wire cutters or pruning shears.

Be careful, take care of your hands!

The next step is to make a cone from thick paper or cardboard, which will be the base of our Christmas tree. We roll the paper into a cone, glue it on the sides and cut off the excess at the base.

Then we simply take the scales in our hands and glue them in a circle, starting from the base of the cone.

Everyone is allowed new row You can glue them in a checkerboard pattern, like here, on top of each other.

You can glue a clove to the top of the tree (such a spice))

After the glue has dried, you can start painting our beauty. To do this, you can use spray paint or regular paint. acrylic paint.

If you choose acrylic paint with a metallic effect, your Christmas tree will look much more impressive.

Then we cover the ends of the “twigs” with PVA glue and sprinkle glitter on them.

This is the beauty that results from these simple actions:

Using exactly the same principle, you can decorate the cone with chains and beads, decorative cords, ribbons, braid, etc.

Another very popular way to make artificial Christmas trees with your own hands is to weave them from beads. This is perhaps the most painstaking method, but for lovers of beadwork nothing is impossible!
