Namely, I propose to make a Christmas tree from what you have at hand. It can be anything, for example, paper, cotton pads, dry twigs, etc. After all, we all dream of surprising our loved ones with something special and unique. Therefore, if you are still thinking about what to give mom, dad, etc. then you have a ready solution).
Of course, in every house on New Year's days there is a brightly decorated live "forest beauty" that flickers and flashes with multi-colored lights. I propose to make a “little girlfriend” so that she is not bored. And after one, your decor in the rooms will be transformed, or perhaps you will place it on the festive table.
In addition, this creative work will bring a lot of positive emotions, and children will be delighted. Moreover, the winter evenings are long, and you can afford to create something beautiful and green).
Although it doesn’t have to be that color, white is also in fashion. There will be a tree as if in a snowball or hoarfrost.

On a note. A feature of this craft is the presence of funny legs instead of a stand. And if you remove them, you get a topiary, which can be made from any material, for example, coffee beans or threads.

How to make a paper Christmas tree at home
I think a lot of people have thought about this at some point. After all, often in schools and kindergartens they give assignments on this topic. I propose to make, for example, a silhouette Christmas tree. To do this, take this sample and print it on office color sheets.

We continue to decorate our home for the winter holiday. We have already made various ones, hung them on windows and walls. Now we want to give the holiday symbolism. And this, of course, is the main princess of the celebration - the Christmas tree. I know that many feel sorry for the trees and replace them with artificial counterparts. But sometimes you just want to make something with your own hands in order to get satisfaction from the action and accent in the decor.
All craft ideas are easy to do with the kids. To make it easier to do the job, make the basics in advance. And try not to skimp on decor. Buy more different beads, ribbons, ribbons, beautiful buttons. Collect small toys from kinders and decorate with them. And they will go into business and will not wallow.
You can create beauty from everything that is at hand. The main thing is to attach to this a share of imagination and all your accuracy. With modern devices, such as a glue gun, you can give the product original shapes and fix different textures and materials.
I know that wine bottle corks and ice cream sticks are also used. Well, we didn’t have any traffic jams at home, and the sticks have long been sold for different needs, so let’s move on to materials that any housewife will definitely have - pasta and yarn.
Let's start with pasta. I know that various snowflakes are made from them. It turns out that they are also suitable for the Christmas tree.
We will need:
- A pack of pasta (better to take feathers)
- glue gun
- Cardboard sheet
- Dye
- Decor
It is better to prefer the shape of "feathers" or "spirals". Choose a good manufacturer so that all the things are even and the same length.
First of all, we glue a cone out of cardboard. I do this by simply twisting the sheet around my hand. To prevent the workpiece from falling apart, we fasten it with a stapler.
And now we cut the base so that the tree stands straight, and not crooked.
We always start from the bottom. “Lay” the first two rows, i.e. glue them so that they lie on the surface, so the product will be more stable.
And the next rows need to be raised exactly on the previous one by an amount equal to half the “spiral”.
When you finish the top, we begin to cover the entire craft with paint.
You can take green, or you can buy gold or silver paint in a spray can. Only then you need to spray it not at home.
I really like the result. It doesn't take much time, but it looks very elegant.
Now it's the turn of yarn and cord.
To make a Christmas tree out of yarn, you need to wind the thread exactly one above the other on a paper cone. Periodically fastening it with hot glue to the base.
Decorate with decor.
This product is made even faster than pasta.
You can decorate them with buttons.
We will need:
- Wire
- Decor
First, we select the wire. It should be firm and not thin. From it we turn a cone-shaped spiral. We check for stability. The bottom can be wrapped twice.
We begin to string the cord on the wire.
Dry and decorate.
Glue will give the structure additional strength and will not allow the cord to slide down the frame.
Volumetric Christmas tree made of paper
Paper is always the first thing that the word "craft" is associated with. And from it you can create not one Christmas tree, but a whole spruce forest in which not a single tree will be repeated!
Let's say we want a paper tree to delight us on the kitchen table. Then you need to make it fluffy and voluminous. And also the most stable.
So, I picked up a few detailed master classes with a clear description of the process.
Option 1
We will need:
- cardboard cone
- Paper of green color of different shades.
We cut out many circles of the same size from paper.
And we begin to glue their edges to the cone, observing the rows.
The first layer always goes at the base.
This craft is available in terms of difficulty, even for a two-year-old child. And it looks quite rich because of the different shades of the same color.
Option 2. Terry cone herringbone
Cut out 4 half circles. Each of them is smaller than the previous one in diameter by 2 centimeters.
We glue the blanks into a cone and cut the edges around the perimeter a little to get the volume. Fold the terry edges a little.
Now glue a smaller cone on the largest workpiece. And so in the direction of decreasing.
That's the whole easy process.
Option 3. Let's make a Christmas tree from paper circles
Cut out 4 circles. Each of them is 1 centimeter smaller than the previous one.
Then we fold each circle 3-4 times in half.
We also make the base out of paper. You can wrap green paper around a pencil or a kebab stick.
We string round blanks on the barrel in descending order of size.
To give stability, you can plant the trunk in plasticine, wax or a wine cork.
Option 4
We mark 15 circles, each time reducing the diameter by 1 centimeter. Then we divide each circle into 12 equal parts, drawing lines through the center.
From the center mark half the radius and draw a circle. Now we cut the lines clearly to the drawn circle.
Glue the tips on each petal.
When you have completed all the levels, start collecting the Christmas tree from the widest row to the smallest.
How do you like the ideas, I think that you will find ideas for yourself.
Craft from cotton pads for the new year in kindergarten
The child was taken aback by the task that tomorrow you need to bring crafts to kindergarten? And outside the window, of course, it is already night. Then you can use the packaging of cotton pads. In most families, they are actively used.
We will need:
- Packing of cotton pads
- Cardboard for the cone base
- PVA glue
- Decor
We fold the cardboard frame, connect the edges with a stapler.
Take a cotton pad and fold it in half.
Then, on a harmless PVA glue, we plant two tips of a cotton semicircle.
And we glue the workpiece to the base, after smearing its fold with the same PVA glue.
So we do row by row. It is better to glue cotton pads closer to each other so that there is a minimum of gaps.
It remains only to decorate the delicate beauty!
Children in kindergarten will definitely like your product, and they will not be ashamed in front of other parents.
DIY craft from napkins
Another very affordable material is napkins. You can use the most inexpensive and monophonic.
We take white, red, blue and green festive shades.
We fold the napkin several times to get the shape of a square, then cut the fold points and cross-fasten the middle with a stapler.
Now we bend each layer, forming a pompom.
Lay out the first row on the frame with these balls. Then we glue balls and other Christmas tree decorations on double-sided tape.
And fill the entire surface of the frame with napkins.
Everything is pretty fast.
By the way, you can see how to make from napkins here. It also turns out very nice.
Candy Christmas tree
A wonderful gift would be a candy craft: buy a box of good candies in a beautiful package at the grocery store.
It is made of two parts - a base for sweets and a barrel.
We glue the base with a side of 23 centimeters. When cutting, indent along the bottom edge and at one edge 1 cm. We will apply glue to them.
We decorate with beautiful paper or film. Glue the bottom to its base.
We make the trunk, decorate it and glue it with the frame.
Now we evenly put sweets, braid or Christmas tree beads on the hot glue.
Use the same color scheme for the base and candies.
We make a Christmas tree for the New Year from pine cones
Natural material always gives the desired zest to the decor. It immediately smells of freshness and resin at home. Will give a symbolic meaning to this winter holiday.
Cones are also suitable for various crafts.
You can create a Christmas tree from only cones, or you can dilute them with sisal balls, decorative flowers or fir branches.
The combination of cones and dried citruses also looks unusual.
Glue the cones onto the base with hot glue. You can not think about the side that you have them. This will give a slight bewitching negligence to the product.
We alternate cones with Christmas balls or other decor.
We cover with artificial snow or white enamel from the sprayer.
Everything is quite easy, and the result is incredibly beautiful.
Light tinsel Christmas tree
We can't imagine the New Year without tinsel! There are no decorations on it now: stars with balls, and multi-colored tips. It decorates windows, curtains, walls and, of course, is used as a material for crafts: wreaths and Christmas trees.
Since most tinsel manufacturers thread it on a thin wire, it is easy to bend and shape in all sorts of ways.
A spruce tree is made from it in three minutes!
We will need:
- Tinsel
- Cardboard sheet
- Double sided tape.
From cardboard we make a base in the form of a cone and glue it with double-sided tape.
We remove the protective film from the first row and begin to glue the end of the tinsel, tightly wrapping the frame.
If you didn’t have enough tinsel, then glue the end with tape, and put the next fluffy ribbon of the same color on top of it.
Fluffy pom-pom beauty
Pompoms have also long been loved by our craftswomen. Previously, we made a dog out of them, now we will create a fluffy beauty.
The balls themselves can be made in two different ways: by winding 20 layers on a fork or using two round blanks.
We will go with the second method.
We take cardboard or plastic, cut out two identical rings.
Now stepping back from the edge of the thread 5 centimeters, we begin to wind the yarn very tightly.
Then cut the outer fold between the blanks.
With the thread end left, we tie the middle of the pompom so as not to lose all the threads.
Now we are looking for a thick wire and turn it into a spiral. Leave the base wide. We string pom-poms on it.
If the wire is not found, then we use the experience of previous products and form a triangular or conical base.
Felt Christmas Tree Ideas
Felt is also popular with our craftswomen. No matter what they do, educational toys and Christmas tree decorations. Today I will give a few ideas for creating a spruce tree.
From the simplest options to the most complex.
Option 1. Cut out 10 Christmas trees of the same size from felt. Fold in half and glue the fold to the trunk.
We use branches, saw cuts of trees (preferably spruce or pine).
Option 2. Cut out many identical triangles from felt.
Glue them to the frame in rows. The upper triangle lies between the two lower ones!
Option 3. We prepare 5 squares of different sizes: 9 cm, 7 cm, 5 cm, 3 cm, 1 cm.
We make five of each size.
Now we string the largest squares onto the thick one, distributing them diagonally to each other so that there are no voids.
We pass all the squares like this.
New Year's beauty from fabric
And two more ideas of fabric beauties in the piggy bank. The ends can be finished with a decorative stitch with a thick contrasting thread. Sew buttons or beads onto symbolic branches.
Use several colors of fabrics and textures. For example, take velvet on one side and linen on the other.
You can also choose different patterns in the same color scheme, or vice versa, play with companion flowers.
You can fill the Christmas tree with holofiber, synthetic winterizer or cuts, the remnants of your creativity.
If the product is small, fill it with cotton wool.
My dear, I tried to find for you the most interesting and affordable materials for creativity. I'd love to hear your opinion in the comments!

Agree, when we see a decorated cone or triangle made of fabric, paper, plastic, we automatically see a decorated Christmas tree in it. A cozy and cute decoration of the New Year's interior will be a do-it-yourself Christmas tree made of fabric.
A conical Christmas tree can be made in the following ways:
- Based on a rigid frame made of cardboard, plastic or foam blanks. The fabric is attached to the cone with glue, pins, sewn on, and then the Christmas tree is decorated with buttons, sequins, beads, sequins, a string of beads, and lace. For greater realism of the texture of the Christmas tree, you can use small shreds of different tones.
- With your own hands, a fabric cone can be made soft, stuffed.
- You can make a pyramid for the Christmas tree from circles of felt.
- Or collect a cone from bags with holofiber.

You can build a scheme yourself, to your taste: with sharp corners, asymmetrical, elongated or squat. Or use our version (click to enlarge the pattern).
Operating procedure
- When cutting the felt, position the paper pattern so that there is a fold at the bottom, step back a couple of centimeters from the edge so that the bottom is thicker.
- When the outline is outlined, remove the pattern and carefully chip off the details with pins before starting to cut.
- On the cut out part, mark the lower border, to which there will be a line. We scribble along the pencil line, leaving a hole on the lower tier for eversion and stuffing. We make out the corners of the bottom.
- We turn the Christmas tree, straightening the rounded corners, slightly stretching them with our own hands. Felt is plastic, it is easy to add volume to it. We fill the Christmas tree and sew it by hand with a hidden seam.
- As for decorating our Christmas tree from felt, here you can show your imagination. Now on sale there are special buttons in the form of stars, snowflakes. Any ribbons, lace, beads are suitable for the New Year's outfit of our beauty from felt.

Christmas tree with radial symmetry and composite Christmas tree made of pillows
These chubby Christmas trees are similar to each other like girlfriends. They consist of parts stuffed with holofiber.
Do-it-yourself Christmas tree with radial symmetry is made from two, and preferably from three identical parts. Each of them is sewn on a typewriter, leaving 2 holes for stuffing at the bottom. Then they are turned inside out, folded into a pile and stitched along the vertical axis. After that, each blade is stuffed and sewn up with a blind seam.
For the Christmas tree, several stars of various diameters are sewn from pillows. They can be strung on an axis, sewn together, or simply folded on the table and used as cushions as needed.
