Christmas tree craft made of candy. DIY Christmas tree made of sweets and rain

The Christmas tree is a symbol of the New Year - one of the most favorite holidays for children. What else do kids love? Of course, sweets ... Today you will see great idea about how to combine these main attributes and give good mood friends and loved ones.
Pretty easy to make a simple Christmas tree from any sweets (truffles, chocolate, candy or even marmalade), you can even make it together with your baby.

First master class

2. I take wallpaper (width 1.5 m) - so as not to miss the height for sure. All my Christmas trees are 30-35 cm long. For such a height, 2 m long tinsel is enough. We make a compass from a pen and a thread, draw a semicircle with a radius such as the height of the tree.

5. We twist the cone from the semicircle - the wall is double. We glue. I glue with hot glue, because. it gives additional rigidity to the base, and it is not necessary to dry it. We make a base from foam plastic (or foam plastic) - we circle the bottom of the cone, cut it out. At the bottom, we bevel one edge so that it can then be inserted into our cone. We remove the bottom to the side, it will come in handy a little later, it can be pasted over with the same wallpaper.

6. We glue the tinsel in a circle all on the same hot glue.

7. Then glue the candy. If the candy is light, you can glue it on double-sided tape, but I have heavy ones, so I glue it on the tip of the package. Then you don’t need to tear off the candy, you can just pull it out from the other side.

We glue the candies not quite in a full circle, because. the tinsel will need to be passed along the glued candy tails to the second row and further in a spiral.

9. We do everything in parallel - we glued a few sweets, followed by tinsel.

10. When everything is pasted over, we cut the tinsel, if necessary, and that's what we get! If anyone manages to glue the bottom on hot glue - that's great, I didn't succeed. I got out of the situation as follows: I have a penoplex 2 cm high.

11. If you have an asterisk or beautiful bow, or something else to decorate the crown - well, if not (like mine) - we take a floristic (or ordinary, but rigid) wire and make a star!

12. We fasten the tip of thin golden tinsel to the beginning of the star, then wrap it around the wire along the entire frame, cut it off, and glue the end of the tinsel on the other side.

13. It turns out such a beauty!

14. We fasten the star to the crown.

15. We decorate with beads - carefully glue the first bead into the base of the star, then we wrap the Christmas tree along the sweets with beads and at the end we also carefully glue the last bead at the base.

16. It turns out such a beauty! It took about 2 hours for everything about everything, 30-40 cm of one and a half meter wallpaper, a piece of foam plastic, 800 gr. sweets, 2 m of silver tinsel, 65 cm of thin gold tinsel, 1 floristic wire, about 2 m of beads, 1.5-2 pieces of 15 cm rod for a glue gun and, of course, fantasy!))) All success in your creative endeavors!

DIY candy tree. Second master class

To create a candy tree, you will need:

500-600 grams of sweets in a bright wrapper (in this case used a truffle in a golden wrapper);

Thick cardboard;

Glue, scissors, double-sided tape;

Christmas decor (rain, a small star for the crown). The color of the candy wrapper should not match the color Christmas decor. If you decide to use rain, then pick it up with a short "pile" so that the candies are not inconspicuous.

The process of creating a Christmas tree from candies:

First of all, you need to thick cardboard make a cone - cut a semicircle and wrap it. Glue the edges with superglue, which glues securely and sets quickly. 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.

Advice: inside the cone you can hide a small machine or soft toy, only it is necessary to think over the Christmas trees that open them.

Next, glue 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. And in this case, it is desirable to choose light in weight. If you decide to use heavy chocolate candies, then they can be glued on.

Decorate the top of the Christmas tree from candies - glue a light star (made of wood or foam) on top, then mask the top with something suitable.

Such a New Year's candy can become great gift for your loved one!

Christmas trees turn out very beautiful, stylish and of course very tasty! Making them is not difficult at all, but it will take patience, work And accuracy! The process can involve children– they will be delighted!

I have Christmas trees middle size - 35 cm in height not counting the spire. You can change the size of the Christmas tree, candies and decorations at your discretion, and I will only share two basic principles for making them. So let's get started...

You will need:

Main:

Whatman - 1 pc.

Simple pencil + eraser

Glue gun (or polymer glue)

For the ROYAL CHRISTMAS:

Sweets in a Golden wrapper "Autumn Waltz" - about 1.4 kg

Tip "Star" 10 cm high. (I have Fuchsia)

Gold acrylic spray paint (or can + brush)

Christmas tree beads 3 m long (I have Fuchsia)

For the GREEN Christmas tree:

Sweets in a green wrapper - about 900 gr.

Tip "Star" 10 cm high. (I have Purple)

Tinsel with medium pile 2 m long.

PROCESS:

THE BASIS:

1. Let's make paper base for the future Christmas tree - cone and bottom (for greater stability). We cut the standard drawing paper into 2 parts: we put aside one of them - we will no longer need it. On the rest of the drawing paper, draw with a ruler (or a compass if the Christmas tree is small) half a circle with a radius equal to the height of the Christmas tree. Those. I have a tree tall, so I took the radius 35 cm. Next, we cut out our blank and cut it in half - we will make 2 cones out of it at once. We glue the cut parts so that we get a cone. From below, you can fasten it with a stapler, for greater reliability. I use a hot gun because it's fast, simple and easy enough. If you use a polymer or some other glue, you will have to briefly squeeze the glued surfaces and wait until they grab.

2. We make a bottom for cones from scraps of whatman paper. To do this, we circle the circle of the resulting cone or draw a circle with a compass (measuring the radius of the cone). Then we draw another circle, retreating about 1.5 cm from the borders of the first circle. We cut out along a larger circle and cut these 1.5 cm with a thick fringe. We bend fringe and glue the bottom into the cone so that the bent fringe is inside cone.

Everything - our preparation is ready. Now choose your favorite Christmas tree and start making it.

ROYAL HERB:

1. Color the cone in Golden color using acrylic spray paint. The best thing to do is on the street, like on the balcony. Before spraying, the paint can must be carefully shake up. It is better to lay a newspaper under the cone so as not to stain everything around. Spray paint evenly onto the cone from a distance of about 15 cm (see instructions) and let dry up. If there is no aerosol, then you can apply gold with a brush acrylic paint, gouache, etc. or decorate the cone with wrapping paper, fabrics, tapes, etc.

2. We begin to stick sweets on the cone in a circle using a glue gun. If the sweets are heavy, then tape, PVA glue, etc. they can’t do it here - you need a strong fast-acting glue.

3. We continue to stick candies on the cone in rows almost to the very end (I left about 5 cm for the spire).

4. Glue the tip on the top of the Christmas tree. Since I have a tip on a long stem, I glued it on top with another row of sweets.

5. The Christmas tree is almost ready, it remains only to dress it up. Gently glue Christmas beads on top of each row of sweets, close each row in a ring, pruning beads (i.e. do not lay out the beads in a spiral to be more accurate).
