So what we need:
Stand for the Christmas tree, it can be a saucer for a flower pot
Floral mesh and organza (felt can be used)
Toothpicks
Double-sided tape
Glue gun, scissors, pliers, floral tape, stapler
Various New Year's decorations
To begin, glue the base of our cone to the stand strictly in the center. Preparing the candies.
I will show you using one candy as an example, but you can do these steps for a dozen candies at once. Take a toothpick and wrap double-sided tape on it. Cut off the excess candy wrapper (if the tail is too large). 
Lightly unwind the tail of the candy and insert a toothpick with the adhesive end. Secure tightly with tape. 
I wanted to combine two materials: floral mesh and organza. To do this we cut strips and then into squares. 
Now we connect the squares as follows: 
After piercing the material, insert a toothpick into the center of the squares, wrap it around the candy and secure it with a stapler. 
We immediately do this with a dozen candies. The size of the squares depends on the level of their location. At the bottom level we need more squares, the higher - the less.
Now let's prepare the small ones New Year's balls. We remove the hanging mount, apply glue and stick a toothpick inside, wait for the glue to harden.
We secure it with tape and wrap it in material just like candy. 
We take pliers and stick our candies alternately with the balls into the cone. 
We do the next row in a checkerboard pattern. Cover the empty areas between the candies with pounds. Can you remember again 
Our DIY Christmas tree is ready! I hope the step-by-step photos helped you make your own unique New Year's beauty!
The Christmas trees turn out very well beautiful, stylish and of course very tasty! Making them is not at all difficult, but it will be necessary patience, work And accuracy! You can involve in the process children– they will be delighted!
I have Christmas trees average size – 35 cm in height, not counting the spire. You can change the size of the Christmas tree, candies and decor at your discretion, and I will only share two basic principles for making them. So let's get started...
You will need:
Basics:
Whatman paper – 1 pc.
Simple pencil + eraser
Glue gun (or polymer glue)
For the ROYAL TREE:
Candies in gold wrapper “Autumn Waltz” - approximately 1.4 kg
Star tip 10 cm high (mine is Fuchsia)
Gold acrylic spray paint (or in a jar + brush)
Christmas tree beads 3 m long (I have fuchsia colors)
For the GREEN Christmas tree:
Candies in green wrapper – approximately 900 g.
Star tip 10 cm high (mine is Purple)
Tinsel with medium pile, 2 m long.
PROCESS:
THE BASIS:
1. Let's make it from whatman paper base for the future Christmas tree - cone and bottom (for greater stability). We cut the standard Whatman paper into 2 parts: set one of them aside - we won’t need it anymore. On the remaining part of the Whatman paper, using a ruler (or a compass if the Christmas tree is small), draw half a circle with a radius equal to the height of the Christmas tree. Those. I have a tree that is tall, so I took the radius 35 cm. Next, we cut out our workpiece and cut it in half - we will make 2 cones from it at once. Glue the cut parts together to form a cone. You can fasten it with a stapler from below for greater reliability. I use a hot gun because it's quick, easy, and fairly straightforward. If you use polymer or any other glue, you will have to briefly squeeze the surfaces to be glued and wait until they set.
2. From scraps of whatman paper we make the bottom for the cones. To do this, draw a circle around the resulting cone or draw a circle with a compass (measuring the radius of the cone). Then we draw another circle, retreating approximately 1.5 cm from the boundaries of the first circle. We cut along the larger circumference and cut these 1.5 cm with a thick fringe. We bend fringe and glue the bottom into the cone so that the folded fringe is inside cone
That's it - our preparation is ready. Now we choose the Christmas tree we like and start making it.
ROYAL TREE:
1. Color the cone in Golden color using acrylic spray paint. It's best to do this on the street, for example on the balcony. Before spraying the paint can, you must carefully shake. It is better to place newspaper under the cone so as not to stain everything around it. Spray the paint evenly onto the cone from a distance of approximately 15 cm (see instructions) and let dry out. If there is no aerosol, you can apply gold with a brush. acrylic paint, gouache, etc. or decorate the cone using wrapping paper, fabrics, ribbons, etc.
2. We begin to stick candies onto the cone in a circle using a glue gun. If the candies are heavy, then tape, PVA glue, etc. They won’t be able to do it here - you need strong, fast-acting glue.
3. We continue to peck the candies onto the cone in rows almost until the very end (I left about 5 cm for the pin).
4. Glue the tip to the top of the tree. Since I have a tip on a long stem, I pasted another row of candies on top of it.
5. The Christmas tree is almost ready, all that remains is to decorate it. Carefully glue Christmas tree beads on top of each row of candies, close each row into a ring, pruning beads (That is, we do not lay out the beads in a spiral to make it neater).
A universal gift option for the New Year is a box of chocolates or a bottle of champagne. But in order not to be trivial and to make your gift memorable for a long time, you can present sweets and a bottle of champagne in the form of a New Year tree. Christmas tree that is decorated New Year's balls, which are candies. Or the one based on a bottle of champagne. Surely, such a gift will become one of the brightest and most memorable.

How to make a Christmas tree from candies: master class
To work, you will need a sheet of cardboard, scissors, glue and candies; it is advisable to choose candies in a bright, beautiful wrapper and light in weight.
First of all, you need to form the base of the future Christmas tree from a sheet of cardboard; to do this, you should cut out a semicircular part and roll it into a cone.

How to make a Christmas tree from candies and tinsel
The second master class will describe the process of making a Christmas tree from sweets and tinsel. To work, you will need several sheets of white or green cardboard, about a kilogram of sweets, tinsel, tape, a stapler and PVA glue.
First of all, on a sheet of green cardboard you need to draw an even circle and divide it into four parts, then you should cut out the circle itself and one part, and the remaining parts should be twisted into a cone shape, thereby creating the base of the Christmas tree. You need to make the bottom row of needles from tinsel; to do this, measure out a piece from the tinsel that is equal to the diameter of the base, and glue it to the bottom wide edge of the tree. Next, you need to make the next row of candies, which need to be glued over the tinsel with a slight overlap. The next row should again be made of tinsel, and on top again you should make a row of candies. Thus, alternating a row of tinsel and a row of candies, it is necessary to decorate the entire base of the tree.

In the third master class it will be explained how to make a Christmas tree from sweets and a bottle of champagne. To work, you will need several types of candies, five of which must be red so that you can form a star from them and decorate the top of the Christmas tree with it, tinsel, double-sided tape, scissors and a bottle of champagne.
A bottle will serve as the basis for the future Christmas tree, so the bottle must be covered with strips of double-sided tape, then removed from the tape protective layer, so that the decorations can be secured. Then you need to glue the candies tightly to each other to form a bottom row; you need to glue tinsel on top so that there are no gaps and no tape is visible. To reach the top of the tree, you need to alternate a row of candies and a row of tinsel. But it is advisable to make the top rows only from tinsel, since candies weigh down the tree. In order to attach a star to the top of the tree, you need to fasten the ends of five candy wrappers using a stapler.
