The Christmas tree is one of the main attributes of such a large-scale holiday as the New Year. Nobody forgets about it, buying live or artificial Christmas trees to their home and decorating it with different outfits, souvenirs, garlands. We will make a Christmas tree out of paper, which can be placed somewhere in the apartment (for example, on the table), or it will not even be a shame to give such a craft to relatives or friends. Next, we will deal with several ways to create Christmas trees from paper.

How to make a Christmas tree out of paper (1 way)

You will need green paper, a ruler, compasses, glue, scissors and a pencil (or a tube for juices, cocktails).

  1. Using a compass, draw a few circles on paper. Each next circle is 1-2 cm smaller than the previous one. Choose the number and size of the circles yourself, depending on what size you want to see the Christmas tree in front of you.
  2. We fold each circle in half once, a second time and a third time (that is, you need to fold each circle three times in half). To make the fold lines clear, we draw along the edges with scissors.
  3. We straighten the circles. We cut a hole in the center of each that matches the diameter of a pencil or tube (depending on what we will use). It is also worth saying that the circles are the tiers of our future Christmas tree.
  4. We glue the pencil or tube with green or brown paper.
  5. Now we begin to collect the Christmas tree. All tiers are strung on a pencil.
  6. We decorate the top of the Christmas tree with a beautiful bead or star. Decorate the Christmas tree, if desired, you can sparkle

How to make a Christmas tree out of paper (2 way)

You will need green paper, scissors, pencil, glue, compasses, ruler, needle, wire.
On green paper, draw a circle with a compass, the size of the lower tier of the future Christmas tree. Next, draw another circle inside the first circle, stepping back from the first one a little more than half the radius.

  1. Using a ruler, divide the circle into 12 sectors.
  2. Along the lines of cases, an incision to the inner (second) circle.
  3. We turn each sector into a cone, which we fix with glue.
  4. Similarly, we create the rest of the blanks, gradually reducing their size.
  5. We make a hole in the center of each blank with a needle.
  6. We turn the bottom of the wire into a spiral.
  7. We collect all the tiers of our Christmas tree on a wire. We fix on top a cone made of paper.

How to make a Christmas tree out of paper with your own hands using the quilling technique (3 way)

You will need: green paper strips 5 mm wide and four strips of 1 cm each, red and yellow strips 3-5 mm wide, toothpicks, glue (instant and PVA).

  1. We use four green strips having a length of 30, 20, 15 and 10 cm. Using a toothpick, we twist them. We remove the part from the toothpick and let it bloom a little. We fix the end of the strip with PVA glue. We give all the spirals the shape of a drop by holding and slightly pulling one of the ends of the spiral up.
  2. Tightly wrap wide green stripes on a toothpick and glue the tip to them, preventing it from blooming. This will be our tree trunk.
  3. For the top of the Christmas tree, we make a drop from a green strip with a length of 30 cm.
  4. Now we begin to collect the Christmas tree, fixing its elements with instant glue. We glue the parts of the trunk and give the glue time to dry.
  5. We insert a toothpick inside the trunk and glue our droplets-twigs. We start gluing with the smallest ones, which we glue to the top of the Christmas tree.
  6. We make toys from yellow and pink stripes by twisting the paper without using a toothpick. You can fasten the ends until the paper is unwound, or you can make the toys a little looser and give them the shape of small droplets. Glue balls to the branches you like.
  7. We glue the drop at the very top (do not forget about it), and decoration on it.
  8. You can make, if desired, a stand. To do this, you will need to make nine curls from white paper strips. Tightly glue the curls together. Now we fix the Christmas tree on a snowy white stand with glue.

How to make a Christmas tree out of paper with your own hands (4 way)

You will need: green cardboard, glue, scissors, adhesive tape, colored paints, pencils, felt-tip pens. Stickers, glitter, etc. can be used as additional decorations.

A rectangular cardboard is taken, folded several times as shown in the picture above, and then pierced in the center with a hole punch. Then this cardboard is cut at an angle so that the craft in the end does not look like a Christmas tree (see picture). We drag our stick into the hole, and if it does not hold firmly, then we can fix it with glue. We decorate the Christmas tree. Jewelry can be attached with glue. Such a Christmas tree can be placed somewhere (if you make a basis for it), or you can hang it somewhere.

Origami tree from a magazine

This origami Christmas tree is very easy to make with your own hands. Small format magazines that can be found in any home are suitable as material.


Work plan:

The procedure described below must be done with each page in the magazine. If the cover is thick, you can simply peel it off (tear it off).

1. We bend the page, the upper right corner, at an angle of 45 degrees to ourselves.


2. Once again, fold the sheet in half diagonally.


3. We pass all fold lines with a fingernail or other object so that they do not open, especially thick pages.

4. The lower corner, which goes beyond the boundaries of the magazine, is turned up.


Thus, we add up all the pages in the advertising magazine.


The result is a cute origami Christmas tree.


Origami tree from a magazine

Another model of origami Christmas trees from for the New Year. Unlike the previous origami tree from a magazine, the pages here do not fold, but are figuratively cut out according to a template.

The manufacturing principle is very simple. It is necessary to prepare a half-Christmas tree template, circle it on one page and cut it out. Further, the cut page will itself be a template for other pages. You can cut several pages at once, but you should not cut a lot at once, as the cut line will turn out to be uneven (jammed) and the tree will not open well.


The tree itself turns out to be more one-sided; to achieve volume, you can fold and glue 2-3 magazines together. But trust me, she looks good.

Apply glue to the surface of the cone in not wide strips and wind the thread around it.

Secure the end of the thread with glue.

Sushi sticks will serve as the legs of our beauty. To do this, they need to be painted with a proofreader.

While they dry from the "yolks" make boots, as shown in the photo.

Fill them up to half with plasticine and wrap with a cloth.

Insert stick legs into boots, decorate the Christmas tree with various bows, ribbons. Paint the legs with stripes of red varnish. ready!

You can make a hat out of cardboard, cover it with a cloth and sew on a pompom.

DIY shabby chic Christmas tree

Let's make such an amazingly beautiful and original craft in a trendy shabby chic style.

Necessary materials.

For the base, we take a large paper cup or any plastic utensils. Separately, we dilute alabaster or gypsum with water to the density of liquid sour cream and pour it into the future pot. We fix the trunk of our tree, plant a branch in the center and fix it in this position until it hardens.

We make a cone out of cardboard using a stapler.

We make the top of the spruce from wire and foam rubber.

We connect the top with the trunk and attach the cone.

We wrap the base of the tree with white fur.

Cut off excess from below.

Then we fold the ends of the burlap inward and attach it with hot glue.

Let's get down to the fun part - decorating our Christmas tree in the shabby chic style.

To create a finished composition, we need a stand.

We make a bench from a bamboo napkin.

From white fur - a snowman.

We attach a bell to the top of the spruce.

We decorate the Christmas tree with beads, pearls, flowers, lace, etc.

We apply transparent glue to the very top of the tree.

And sprinkled with artificial snow.

We do the same with the bench.

Our composition "Winter's Tale" is ready!

Decorative Christmas tree made of napkins

We will make it from cardboard and single-layer napkins. You will also need beads for decoration.

First of all, we will build a frame for our Christmas tree. We fold the cone from cardboard, fasten it (I sewed it with threads) and cut exactly the bottom of the cone so that it can stand.

The base is ready, set aside for now. Now let's move on to napkins. From them we will make roses. Single-layer plain paper napkins are suitable for us.

We take a napkin and cut it along the folds. Then fold it in three and cut along the folds again.

The resulting strips are still tripled and cut again. We got a square equal to 1/9 of the napkin.

We fasten this square in the center with a stapler.

Then cut out a circle from it. Mega-accuracy and accuracy are not required here at all, the finished rosette can be slightly corrected with scissors.

Thus, a rose is formed. If the finished rose seems uneven to you, then you can trim it with scissors.

The number of such flowers depends on the size of your cardboard cone. My Christmas tree turned out to be 21 cm high and I needed 59 roses for it.

When all the flowers are ready, we return to the cone. Starting from the crown, glue the flowers onto the cone so that the base is not visible. I glued it with hot glue (it’s more convenient for me), but the most ordinary PVA will do.

I made a Christmas tree from napkins in two colors. If you also decide to create your own craft from multi-colored roses, then you can safely experiment with their alternation on the cone. If the result does not suit you, you can always tear off the flower and re-glue it to another place. In this case, only the lower layer of the flower will suffer. It (the bottom layer) is simply torn off. The rosette will not lose its appearance.

So, we glued the flowers to the cone. The Christmas tree itself is ready and you can stop at this stage.

I also decorated it with beads - I glued it on the same hot glue, here PVA will no longer help.

Christmas tree made of plasticine with sweets

What do we all associate a wonderful New Year's holiday with? With the smell of pine needles, bright lights, garlands, sweets. And children still create unusual crafts with their own hands, thereby bringing a pleasant moment of the onset of a fabulous night. Lessons of creativity of such subjects they like most of all. It is in crafts that you can realize any fantasies.

We offer to make an elegant Christmas tree, which is easy to decorate with sweets. Blind crafts from plasticine - the cheapest and most popular material. You will definitely make a beautiful souvenir if you follow our tips - they are simple.

To sculpt a Christmas tree with your own hands, prepare:

  • green plasticine for the crown;
  • a stump in the form of a cap or an empty spool of thread;
  • toothpick, red and white plasticine for sweets.

Choose a green block of plasticine from the set. The body of the Christmas tree itself will be made from it, and in the future we will make small sweets as toys. Of course, a small souvenir does not have to be green, any other color that you choose at will will do. If you manage to find a set for sale that has a gold bar, then this option will look rich.

Thoroughly knead the entire prepared bar in your hands and prepare for further work. It is necessary to form a cone-shaped crown, and not quite the usual even, but curved, similar to the cap of a fabulous gnome. Since we are talking about a magical holiday, it is not forbidden to fantasize and create something incredible.

Pull all the soft plasticine into a long cone. Sharpen the upper part as much as possible, press the lower part along the circumference with your fingers, showing the skirt. Then take and bend to the side the entire structure. Sometimes Christmas trees do not stretch up perfectly evenly, but lean to the side like this.

To model Christmas tree decorations - small sweets - use white and red plasticine. Form red round pills (the inside of the candy), as well as white triangles (the twisted part of the candy wrappers).

Glue delicious sweets. Glue a white dot on each red circle and push in the center with a toothpick. Glue triangular pieces on the sides.

Make enough decorative details to fill the entire surface of the Christmas tree, evenly distributing sweets around the circumference at some distance.

Glue all the resulting blanks to the crown. A beautiful Christmas craft is almost ready. From below, press down a small lid - a stump (or mold it from plasticine).

And the top is still missing. She asks to complete the resulting fabulous Christmas tree. Come up with some option, for example, the same spruce branches in combination with red berries. All this looks festive and bright.

This is such a fantastic Christmas tree. This is an elegant version of crafts for the New Year, which will be a great gift for your favorite holiday.

The New Year is just around the corner - you need to hurry up to catch everything.

Do-it-yourself Christmas tree made of felt

Let's make felt Christmas trees - this is a great Christmas decoration and perfect for school or kindergarten.

Prepare for them:

  • A set of colored felt;
  • cotton wool;
  • glue "Moment" transparent;

Choose the right colors for the felt. It can be different shades of green. Or you can show your imagination and make an unusual red or blue spruce. Fold a couple of sheets of felt together, draw the shape of a spruce on the top.

Cut a piece of patterned felt along the entire length and fold it in half as shown in the photo. We do this only if the felt is not very thick, otherwise it will be difficult to cut 4 layers at once.

Cut out 4 blanks.

To give them a bulge, put some cotton wool, as shown in the photo.

Lubricate the edges of the workpiece with glue.

Cut a piece of knitting thread and attach it to the top of the workpiece, directly on the glue. For him, it can be hung. Attach the second blank and press along the edge so that both parts stick together.

On a light Christmas tree, make stitches with threads of a darker green color. This will add originality to the craft.

Decorate the second with a border of pearl beads. To do this, make a layer of glue along the edge and put beads on it.

Now let your kid decorate them however he wants. After drying, the craft is ready for use.

Such a simple craft will be a great decoration for your Christmas tree. It can be given to grandparents. Older kids can do it completely on their own. By this principle, you can make any decorations from felt. Anything your imagination tells you.

You can make a Christmas tree at home from any material, from sweets to books. Today we will talk about how to make a symbol of the new year out of paper. Simply put, we take scissors, glue, paints ... and proceed.

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


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



And the final step:


New Year's decor is ready!


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

Another easy option. We make a cone from 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. We take a suitable wooden stick, it 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 on a stick, like a sail on a ship. And here is the result.

We make a Christmas tree from corrugated paper with our own hands step by step

For this craft, you will need corrugated paper and cardboard. Paper can be selected in any color to make the New Year's decor unusual, and combined with your interior.


Watch in this video a master class of 5 step-by-step options for making Christmas trees from corrugated paper for the New Year 2019:

And now we will 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. Here you can go in several ways. You can make Christmas tree branches in the form of a belt around a cone. To do this, cut a strip of paper five centimeters wide, and long enough to completely envelop the cone. We thread the thread along the inner edge of the strip that will be adjacent to the cone, stepping back from the edge by half a centimeter. After that, we turn the strip into a circle.


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


So that the rings do not fall off, glue them to the cone. As a result, we get such a beautiful Christmas tree.

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


We make circles in the following way. We take a strip of paper and fold it with an accordion. We fix the thread in the middle.

After that, we unfold it with a fan.


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


We string them on the rod, starting with the largest and ending with the smallest. As a result, we get a Christmas tree.

The process is more laborious than the previous options, but the result is wonderful.

How to make a Christmas tree out of paper napkins

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


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


The first layer and crush to 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.


There will be many such roses to be made. How much is hard 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.

Paper Christmas tree - options for making a paper tree

Here is an option for making a Christmas tree out of paper, which is suitable for young children. The fact is that the Christmas tree is made from the contours of a child's palm.

We twist a cone out of cardboard. Next, take a green sheet of paper and a child. He puts his palm, outline it and cut it out. You will need a lot of these palms. Now we take the cut out palms and glue them to the cone. It turned out to be a wonderful tree.


Continuing with the cone options:


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


You can use wrapping paper.


And how do you like such a stylish little thing from old glossy magazines?


It is made easier than a steamed turnip).


Another very simple appliqué style option that a child can easily make. We take a sheet of colored paper as a background. Next, we need several sheets of different colors. Cut them into strips of paper about half a centimeter wide. Their length is different: the first is long, each subsequent one is somewhat shorter than the previous one. We cut it, now we glue them on the background sheet. Glue an asterisk on top. The craft is ready.

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

Christmas tree from newspaper tubes

A Christmas tree can be made from any material. One of the simplest is the 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 such a craft.

You can't tell right away that it's made from a newspaper. The tubes can be painted in any color and the Christmas tree will be colored.

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


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


Thus, twisting the tubes, we raise the "braid" to the very top.

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

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

There is another way to weave:


And another tree model:


We make a Christmas tree from origami modules according to the scheme

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.


Such modules for a Christmas tree 20 cm high need to be made approximately 650 pieces. Done. Now we collect 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 module of the second row. We insert into pockets located nearby, as a result, the outer corners will stick out to the sides.

We collect the branch, alternating in each row, first one, then two modules.


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


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

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


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

How to make a Christmas tree out of paper at home

Below I will give some rather interesting options for making a three-dimensional Christmas tree. The first option - the Christmas tree is made from paper strips folded with a ribbon and dressed on a stick-trunk. We collect according to this scheme.

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


Or like this.


For one Christmas tree - three stencils. Cut along the lines. After that, all three blanks are glued together and we get such Christmas trees.


And, finally, the original version of a large Christmas tree that glows from the inside. For its manufacture, cardboard boxes are needed, 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 diagram-pattern for Christmas tree pyramids-modules.


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


Here is also a decent decor option:


Here are very concise and stylish Christmas trees:


These are interesting crafts, I think they will decorate your house on New Year's holidays. Good luck and Happy New Year everyone!
