Original do-it-yourself Christmas tree made of colored Japanese paper


You will need:

colored cardboard

Thick paper with a pattern (can be replaced with colored cardboard)

Colored or wrapping paper (you can use a page from an old magazine)

White sheet of A4 paper

2 skewers

Pencil and ruler

PVA glue or glue stick

Scissors

Darning needle (if necessary).

1. Cut out 14 rectangles of 2 of the same size from colored cardboard. In this example, 2 rectangles are 21 x 28 cm, two more are 18 x 28 cm, then (also 2 each): 16 x 28 cm, 13.5 x 26 cm, 12 x 26 cm, 9 x 25 cm, and 6 x 22 cm.

2. Preparing the basis for the Christmas tree:

Cut plain A4 paper into strips 2 cm wide. Roll the strip into a circle, add a little glue at its end and glue the next strip (see image). Repeat the same action until you glue all the strips into one large circle with a diameter of 3.5 cm.

* The larger the circle, the more stable the tree will stand.

3. Take a large rectangle of colored cardboard and start folding it with an accordion, 1.5 cm wide. Cut the ends of the accordion into a rounded shape.

4. Fold the accordion in half and glue the sides - you have a semicircle.


5. Repeat the same with the second rectangle, then glue the two semicircles to form a circle - these will be the branches of the lower level of the tree.


* To secure the halves of one circle, you can pass a thin wire through them and twist its ends from the back.


6. Make similar images for 6 more levels of your Christmas tree.

7. Take colored or wrapping paper and cut off several small rectangles from it, about 2 cm wide, with which you will later cover the skewers.

The skewers will play the role of the tree trunk.

8. Thread the skewers through one large circle. Since you need to leave gaps of about 2 cm between the circles, these gaps need to be hidden, so we will wrap them in small rectangles of colored paper.


9. After each circle, wrap the skewers with colored paper, 2 cm wide, and glue its ends. Continue repeating this action until all branches of the tree are put on skewers.

10. It remains to insert the skewers into the round base (see point 2) and fix them with glue.


* You can decorate the top of the Christmas tree to your taste - a paper star, a bead or a button.

Big Christmas tree made of paper


You will need:

Sheets of green paper (preferably 2 shades - the lighter ones will be at the top of the Christmas tree, and the darker ones at its base)

Cardboard cylinder 2 pcs. (from paper towels)

PVA glue or hot glue

Scotch tape (if necessary)

Big bow.


1. From green sheets of paper, you need to twist a lot of cones of about the same size. Fasten the edges of the cones with tape or glue so that the cones do not unwind.


* Try to keep all the cones in one place for attaching with adhesive tape or gluing with glue so that they are not visible when creating the Christmas tree.

2. Glue two cardboard cylinders together so that the tree can become tall.


3. On the cylinders, draw lines at the same distance from each other so that you can evenly glue the cones.

4. Start folding the tree. Apply glue to the tip of one cone and press it to the cylinder, or rather to the drawn line. It is better to start gluing the cones from the bottom up.


* Glue so that the opening of the cone is on the side of the cylinder (i.e. tree trunk).

5. Glue the entire row of cones, pressing them firmly against each other and, if necessary, gluing them together.

6. Move up and glue the next row of cones. But you should not stick cones on the top of your head.


For the top of the Christmas tree, it is best to glue several cones together. Glue a large bow to them and "put" the whole structure on the cylinder. It doesn't have to be glued on.



The Christmas tree is the most important idea for creativity in preparation for the New Year. Plots of New Year's cards, toys, home decorations revolve around her. And it is not surprising that even there are a huge number of ways to make a Christmas tree from such a simple material as paper. And each option is different from the other.

Some crafts are easy to make and even a child can make them, others require a certain skill, perseverance. Some models of volumetric Christmas trees are not ashamed to give, they look like works of art.

Selecting the required material

To make a Christmas tree out of paper with your own hands, a wide variety of paper and cardboard is used. In most cases, this is ordinary colored paper and cardboard, although Christmas trees made from corrugated paper also look interesting. In addition to colored paper and cardboard, often required:

  • scissors;
  • ruler;
  • pencil;
  • glue;
  • stapler;
  • stationery knife;
  • wire.

For postcards: simple but original

To begin with, let's look at Christmas trees that look great on postcards or as New Year's toys on large forest beauties.

A simple version of the Christmas tree consists of several squares of paper or cardboard rectangles of different sizes:

  1. Cut out five squares from paper from largest to smallest. If you're making a Christmas tree out of designer cardboard, cut out 2:1 aspect ratio rectangles and go straight to step 3.
  2. Fold them in half.
  3. Fold the top corners down towards the middle. So that the free edges are at the bottom.
  4. Start gluing from the top.
  5. The top corner of each module must overlap the previous part.

A similar modular Christmas tree is made up of 5 origami modules. This model, made of designer cardboard, can be hung on a Christmas tree. See the step-by-step master class. Squares can be made in any size, but they do not have to be the same. For example, make the largest square with sides 10 cm, and let the others differ from each other by one centimeter.


 Take a square sheet of designer cardboard.

Fold it in half diagonally, then unfold and connect the other two corners.

On a sheet of cardboard, you should get these fold lines.

Now, along these fold lines inward, we start one of the faces of the cardboard pyramid.

Then we put the opposite side inside.

We smooth the folds with our fingers.

On both sides, we got two free edges. We take the top layer by the corner and bend it to the middle of the triangle.

We do the same on the other side.
The module can be glued to the postcard using double-sided tape.

Subsequent modules are nested inside the previous ones in turn. It turned out the original Christmas tree. Glue a ribbon or thread through the top of the tree to hang it as a decoration.

We offer you to study the step-by-step instructions for making a paper Christmas tree from loops. It is suitable for making postcards, appliqués or hanging decorations if you attach a loop to it. From the materials you need only a square sheet of green colored paper. Also, prepare a ruler, pencil, scissors and glue.


 We take a square sheet of paper. If you have an A4 paper, fold it diagonally with the sides aligned and cut off the excess.

We retreat from the fold one centimeter and draw a parallel line with a simple pencil.

Set aside one centimeter along one of the cut lines.

Then we draw parallel lines, connecting the points with a line parallel to the fold.

We cut two sides at once along the lines, having previously secured a sheet of paper with paper clips so that it does not move.

Then we unfold the workpiece.

Now the task is to glue all the strips to the middle. First, we perform the operation with one side. Then on the other.

Cut off the top at an angle.

At the top, you can cut a star out of red paper and glue it with glue.

To decorate a postcard, a Christmas tree made of paper tubes is suitable.

  1. It is necessary to cut several strips of different lengths from colored paper, cardboard, remnants of wrapping paper, candy wrappers.
  2. A round pencil will serve as a template.
  3. Just wrap a strip of paper around the pencil, placing it lengthwise.
  4. Glue the tube along the cut.
  5. From the finished tubes, form a Christmas tree.

The Christmas tree is placed not only outside the postcard, but also inside. When opening the postcard, it turns into a three-dimensional figure. And it's very easy to make it. It is necessary to fold several sheets of colored paper of different sizes with an accordion and glue it to opposite sides of the postcard.

Try folding a triangular sheet of paper like an accordion from the base to the top.

Volumetric models: schemes, instructions, master classes

Light options for voluminous Christmas trees can be made in half an hour with your child. And most of the time will take its decoration.

cone based

The simplest option is a cone made of colored cardboard or a regular landscape sheet wrapped in colored paper or corrugated paper. First, take a sheet, roll it into a cone, secure the edges with a stapler or glue. cut the cone so that it is stable.

If corrugated paper is planned on top, then it is best to put it on double-sided tape. Cut off thin strips of tape and stick along the cone in several places. Wrap the cone with paper, tuck the excess edges inward.

You can decorate such Christmas trees with buttons, ribbons, bows, rhinestones, carved pictures, in general, whatever your heart desires. Decorations are simply glued on.

But this is a “smooth” Christmas tree, and there are also options with “needles”, also based on a cone. Corrugated paper "needles" may look like this:

Just make a fringe out of paper. After gluing the needles in a circle on the cone, you get the following result:

The needles can be curled a little so that it does not fit too tightly to the base, but is fluffy, for this they use a pencil or scissors. The paper is wound onto a pencil, and the tip of the scissors is drawn along the fringe.

And how do you like the Christmas tree for the New Year, in which the needles are made of circles of green paper of different shades? It looks beautiful, but the work is painstaking and will take time.

There is another manufacturing option.

The base is a cone, which is pasted over in a spiral with a pigtail of crumpled paper. Glue is applied to the base. The tape is slightly overlapped.

Fir-trees-vytynanka

Openwork voluminous Christmas trees made of paper using the vytynanka technique are original in themselves, and if they are also decorated with beads, then their charm will have no limits.

In order to make such beauty, you will need a clerical knife or nail scissors (they are not very convenient to work with), but first of all you need a template. Pre-print the template or simply transfer the drawing you like to paper from the monitor screen. It is best to cut the pattern with a knife, placing a wooden board. The number of parts at your discretion: from 2 pieces or more. The more details, the more magnificent the Christmas tree. When all the details are cut out, put them together, sew with a running stitch with a needle and thread along and bend so that the sectors are evenly spaced.

We suggest you choose the appropriate templates:

We considered the case when the parts are fastened in the middle, but there are options when they are glued along the edges. For this, 4 parts are used. During gluing, the edges should be clamped with paper clips so that the parts do not stick out.

Origami

Previous options for making bulky Christmas trees have all involved cutting and gluing. But it can be done by folding. This method refers to the ancient Japanese art of origami. See how to make a figurine in the video.

Modular

Paper Christmas trees, which are assembled from modules, are common. For example, from circles of cardboard. You will need:

  • compass;
  • scissors;
  • wooden stick;
  • glue;
  • beads;
  • base.

Draw a circle on a sheet of cardboard with a compass, cut it out. Fold four times. Cut off the tip from the top. Then form an accordion along the folds. Then you should string the parts on a skewer. They start from the top, glue is applied to the hole in the bottom part so that the part does not slide along the skewer. The basis can serve as a spool of thread, a wine cork. The scheme is clearly shown in the photo.

Modules are also performed using the quilling technique. For example, from 9 tiers of 6 quilling droplets in each, a wonderful Christmas tree is obtained.

In addition to paper, you will need scissors, glue and a wooden skewer.

  1. Cut out narrow strips from a sheet of paper.
  2. Fold the droplets and rings using the quilling technique.
  3. Make a base around the skewer.
  4. Put a ring on the skewer, secure with glue.
  5. Then assemble a module of six drops, gluing them together, and put them on a skewer.
  6. Then again comes the ring and the new module.
  7. So alternate to the very top.

Note! Modules must be different sizes. Start with the largest in diameter, end with the smallest.

It is quite difficult and time-consuming to make a Christmas tree that looks like this:

Video: making a corrugated tree

This is another stylized Christmas tree made of round elements. To make it, you will need several circles of paper of different diameters and a wire on which these circles will subsequently be fixed. The circle is divided into 12 sectors with a pencil, cut them without reaching the middle and glue each petal.

The process is shown in detail in the video.

The Christmas tree is one of the main attributes of the New Year. Nobody forgets about her: people buy to decorate them with different outfits - souvenirs and garlands.

Relax.by offers its readers 5 ways to make a Christmas tree out of paper, which can be placed not only in the apartment, but also to decorate the desktop or make a nice gift to relatives or friends. Here is a selection of ways to make a paper Christmas tree, with photos and step-by-step instructions.

Method number 1 - paper Christmas tree

You will need:
green paper;
ruler;
compass;
glue;
scissors;
pencil or tube for juices, cocktails.

Step 1.
Use a compass to draw some circles on the paper. Make each new circle 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 the end. The cut out circles are the tiers of our future Christmas tree.

Step 2
Fold each circle in half once, a second time, and a third time: each circle needs to be folded in half three times. To make the fold lines clear, draw along the edges with scissors.

Step 3
Spread the circles and cut a hole in the center of each, which should match the diameter of the pencil or straw - it all depends on what you will be using.

Step 4 .
Tape a pencil or tube with green or brown paper.

Step 5
Now is the time to assemble the tree. Gently string all the tiers onto the base - a pencil or a tube.

Step 6
Decorate the top of the Christmas tree with a beautiful bead or star. You can also decorate the Christmas tree with sparkles and pieces of chocolate foil.

Method number 2 - voluminous Christmas tree made of paper

You will need:
green paper;
scissors;
pencil;
glue;
compass;
ruler;
needle;
wire.


Step 1.
On green paper, draw a circle of sufficient size with a compass - this will be the lower tier of your future Christmas tree. Then draw another circle inside the first circle, stepping back from the contour of the first circle a little more than half the radius. Using a ruler, divide the circle into 12 sectors.

Step 2
Make an incision along the lines, deep to the inner (second) circle.

Step 3
Roll the sector into a cone, which must be secured with glue.

Step 4
Similarly, prepare the remaining tiers, gradually reducing their size.

Step 5
Poke a hole in the center of each blank with a needle.

Step 6
Roll the bottom of the wire into a spiral.

Step 7
All tiers of the Christmas tree need to be assembled on a base - wire. You can fix the Christmas tree on top with a cone made of the same paper.

Method number 3 to make a paper Christmas tree

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

Step 1.
Use pre-prepared green strips 30, 20, 15 and 10 cm long. Twist them with a toothpick, then remove and let the strips bloom a little. Fix the end of each strip with PVA glue and give all the spirals the shape of a drop by holding and slightly pulling one of the ends of the spiral up.

Step 2
Wrap wide green stripes tightly around a toothpick and glue the tip to them, preventing it from blooming. This is the trunk of your tree.

Step 3
For the top of the Christmas tree, make a drop from a green strip 30 cm long.

Step 4
Start assembling the Christmas tree, securing its elements with instant glue. Glue the barrel parts and let the glue dry.

Step 5
Insert a toothpick inside the trunk and glue the droplets-twigs. Start gluing with the smallest branches that are attached to the top of the Christmas tree.

Step 6
Make toys out of yellow and pink stripes by twisting paper without using a toothpick. You can fasten the ends of the strips until the paper has unwound, or you can make the toys a little looser and shape them into small droplets. Glue the balls to the branches you like.

Step 7
Glue the drop at the very top of it - don't forget about it! - fasten the decoration.

Step 8
If desired, you can make a stand for the Christmas tree. To do this, you need to make nine curls from white paper stripes. Glue the curls tightly together and secure the Christmas tree on a snowy white stand with glue. For complete naturalness, the stand can be decorated with cotton wool.

Method number 4 - Christmas tree for the new year made of cardboard

You will need:
colored cardboard;
glue;
scissors;
hole puncher;
a small stick with a diameter approximately equal to the diameter of the holes that are obtained from a hole punch;
decorations.

Step 1.
Take a rectangular cardboard, fold it several times (as shown in the picture) and make holes in the center with a hole punch.

Step 2
Then take the cardboard and cut it “at an angle” so that the craft ends up looking like a Christmas tree.

Step 3
Pull the stick through the hole. If it does not hold firmly, then fix it in place of contact with the cardboard with glue.

Step 4
Decorate the Christmas tree. Decorations can also be fixed with glue.

It is convenient to put such a Christmas tree (if you make a base for it), and also hang it if there is absolutely no space on the desktop for a Christmas tree made of paper.

Method number 5 - Christmas tree from a magazine

The cheapest Christmas tree ever!

The material for such crafts will be one large magazine or several small magazines. If the magazine has a hard cover, then it is desirable to remove it.

For each page, do the following:

Step 1.
Starting at the top right corner, fold the page at a 45 degree angle.

Step 2
Fold the sheet diagonally and in half again.

Step 3
Turn the corner that goes beyond the borders of the magazine from the bottom up.

Step 4
Follow the same procedures with the rest of the pages and in the end you will get an unusual origami Christmas tree.

In addition to paper, a Christmas tree can be made from sweets. How? See below.

Candy Christmas tree

For the Christmas tree you will need:
500-600 grams of sweets in a bright wrapper;
thick cardboard;
glue, scissors and double-sided tape;
Christmas decor: rain, a small star for the crown.

Please note that the color of the candy wrapper does not match the color of the Christmas tree decor. If you decide to use rain, then pick it up with a short "pile" so that the candy is visible.

Step 1.
Make a cone from thick cardboard, cut out a semicircle and wrap it. Glue the edges with superglue, which will securely fasten and set quickly.

Step 2
Cut the bottom of the cone into strips, bend it inward and stick a circle on top, which will help make the base as stable as possible.

If you are preparing a Christmas tree as a gift for a child, then you can hide a small car or soft toy inside the cone. It is only necessary to think over the opening bottom for the Christmas tree.

Step 3
Tape the cone with double-sided tape, remove both protective films. Next, glue a row of candies on the bottom. Candies must be pressed very carefully to the adhesive tape, otherwise they will quickly fall off.

That is why it is desirable to choose sweets that are light in weight. If you decide to use heavy chocolates, then glue them to the Christmas tree immediately with glue.

Step 4 Decorate the top of the candy Christmas tree with a light star made of wood or foam, then mask the top with serpentine or tinsel. Your sweet Christmas tree is ready!

But what is the New Year without a tinsel Christmas tree?

DIY tinsel tree

You will need:
tinsel 2 m;
paper sheet;
PVA glue;
glue "Moment"
scissors;
pencil;
needle with thread;
glue brush.

Step 1.
On a piece of drawing paper, draw a circle with a radius of 25 cm. To draw such a large circle evenly, make the following device. Tie a pencil to the end of the thread with a needle, stick the needle in the middle of a sheet of paper, pull the thread and draw a circle of the required diameter with a pencil.

Step 2
To create a Christmas tree base cone, you only need half of this circle, so cut the circle in half.

Step 3
Connect the edges of the half with an overlap and secure them with glue - for this purpose it is better to use Moment glue. The base of the Christmas tree is ready.

Step 4
To glue the tinsel to the base, apply PVA glue on top of the cone and carefully glue the tinsel in a circle. Tinsel is well attached to the PVA. Thus paste over the entire cone and let the glue dry. The tinsel Christmas tree is ready!

You can also decorate a Christmas tree made by yourself with home-made decorations from small cones, nuts, beads, bows, tinsel in a contrasting color. Purchase small toy bells and attach them to the Christmas tree with glue.

To make the Christmas tree taller, make a stand for it, for example, from a small flower pot: glue a cardboard circle to it and fix the Christmas tree there.
