New Year's crafts: tree from plastic bottles do-it-yourself - another extremely unusual and very beautiful craft from empty used plastic containers. In addition, you do not have to throw away the bottle, making an original masterpiece out of scrap. handmade. To make such a Christmas tree, you need a minimum of time and cost. A master class on making a Christmas tree from plastic bottles will tell you in detail how to make an original New Year's craft from used materials, in this case PET containers.
Craft: DIY Christmas tree from plastic bottles
To make a decorative New Year's craft: a Christmas tree from plastic bottles, you will need the following:
So, cut the bottle as shown in the photo below. That is, it is necessary to cut off the bottom and neck so that a straight pipe from the bottle remains.
Next, you need to make blanks for the branches. In order for the Christmas tree to have a conical shape, the blanks must have different sizes. That is, you need to achieve the following:
Cut each plastic bottle lengthwise into 3 equal parts and only then adjust their sizes so that each subsequent tier is slightly smaller than the previous one. Then each blank must be "dissolved into needles." The neck of one of the bottles will serve as a stand for our future New Year's crafts.
The next step is to roll the paper into a tube. Insert into bottleneck and secure with duct tape.
Now it remains to fix each tier of the Christmas tree with tape in a circle and a small New Year's craft: do-it-yourself Christmas tree is ready!
You can decorate the top of our New Year's tree with a homemade Christmas tree toy or complete the Christmas tree the way we did.
If you want to make a Christmas tree from PET bottles more fluffy, such as in the photo below, when making a Christmas tree, the needles need to be cut as thin as possible (more often).

The original Christmas tree-beauty will decorate the festive interior. Of course, a round dance around her is not to be led, but such a miracle will certainly raise the mood. Here is such an interesting desktop craft that can be made from the simplest things that are in every home.
Necessary materials:
Make the frame of the future Christmas tree from A4 sheet - fold it into a bag. Insert the foam inside.
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.
Let's make this amazingly beautiful and original craft in 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!
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.

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 closer the 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 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:
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 ( inner part sweets), as well as white triangles (twisted part of candy wrappers).
Glue delicious sweets. On each red circle stick white dot and push through the center with a toothpick. Glue triangular pieces on the sides.
Make this amount decorative details so that it is enough to fill the entire surface of the Christmas tree, evenly distributing sweets around the circumference at a certain 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 just 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.

Let's make Christmas trees out of felt - this is great Christmas decoration and perfect for school or kindergarten.
Prepare for them:
Select suitable colors 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 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.

A sachet is a small bag filled with dry fragrances that is used to create a fragrant background in a wardrobe or chest of drawers. If you put such fragrant bags on the shelves with things, then a pleasant and subtle smell will settle in your closet.
It will not be difficult to make such a sachet with your own hands, and if you create it in the form of a Christmas tree, then in addition to the aroma, the festive composition will also set the appropriate mood.
Materials for the master class:
On a sheet of paper, draw a spruce template and cut it out.
Finely cut the peel from citrus fruits, and to give more flavor, you can also add a few drops of essential oil.
From a thin green cotton fabric, cut out two blanks according to the template, fold them with their right sides inward and sweep.
If possible, sew and finish the edge on sewing machine, if this is not possible - process the edges manually.
Turn out.
From a silver thread, make a loop with a voluminous knot at the end, use a needle or a hook to thread the loop into the top of the spruce.
Tie a satin ribbon into a bow and secure at the top with a couple of stitches.
We fill the craft with fragrant peel from citrus fruits, sew the edge.
If desired, do-it-yourself Christmas tree-sachet can be decorated with different beads and sequins.
Our affordable and easy-to-make sachet is ready, now its aroma will please, and beautiful appearance will give an unusual and festive energy.

Creative Christmas trees are good because they are unusual, they can be created from the most different materials, and edible trees will become a decoration and the main highlight of the New Year's table.
The blanks must be fixed in such a way that the largest are at the bottom, and the small ones are at the top.
Put pre-made parts on the stick, starting with the largest bottle, ending with the smallest one.
Secure these elements with tape, arranging them in ascending order, starting with the largest and ending with the smallest.
If, for example, you work in grocery store, then you can put a big Christmas tree made of plastic bottles here, which will certainly attract buyers. To do this, you need to arrange the bottles in a circle in rows, put plywood circles on them. Each subsequent tier is smaller than the diameter of the previous one. Closer to the top should be 3 bottles, put a star on top.
After the magazines are read, they are usually thrown away. But you can do it differently, make a paper tree. To create it, you can use newspapers, old books.
If you like strict lines, then check out the next option.
Cut a strip of corrugated paper, chop it with scissors in the form of a fringe, a little short of the opposite edge. Start gluing these decorated ribbons from the bottom.
It is better to take the material of two shades, then the creative Christmas tree will look more contrasting.
You can also make a very pretty tree out of threads.
You can make a chocolate base and attach the berries to it with the tip outward with a toothpick.
Place the apple half on a platter or plate, cut side down. Stick a skewer into it. Chop the cucumber into not too thin slices.
Put these slices on a skewer, starting with the largest. Arrange them in a checkerboard pattern or something like that so that they look like branches of a Christmas tree.
Cut small pieces from red and yellow peppers. Put them on top of some cucumbers or secure with toothpicks. String an elongated piece of pepper on the top of the head, closing the skewer from above.
You can decorate a New Year's dish, for example, a salad, with this tree. Put a little parsley along the edge of the plate, which will symbolize green grass.
The next Christmas tree consists of fruits, berries and vegetables. Take:
Set the carrot in the recess. Stick toothpicks in it. String kiwi halves, strawberries and grapes on them. The star can be cut from a suitable fruit or vegetable, or from a thick piece of cheese. Decorate a plate with greens to make the Christmas tree look even more picturesque.
The next tree is made from apples. So that they do not darken, cut slices should be dipped for 15 minutes in a solution of lemon juice.
First you need to cut the middle of the apples, then chop these fruits into circles. Using a knife or a special recess, give these blanks the shape of a star. Put it on a plate, place a slightly smaller blank on top. Adhering to this tactic, lay the Christmas tree to the end. Decorate it with cranberries, berry physalis.
If you don't have leeks, then you can garnish the salad with dill. Look at the photos how to arrange the branches, starting from the bottom.
If you have green pepper, turn its slices into lush spruce branches, make a New Year's tree from this edible material. Circles and slices of lemon or grapefruit will also become a picturesque decoration for the New Year's table.
If you take kiwi for this, use unripe ones so that the circles hold tightly on the base.
Vegetarians and Connoisseurs proper nutrition They will be able to make a Christmas tree out of broccoli, decorate it with cherry tomatoes, and make a star out of sweet peppers. The asparagus stalks will turn into a tree trunk, and cauliflower- in white snowdrifts.
Below should be the most big bottles(2 and 1.5 liter bottles, in the middle - liter bottles, and at the top 0.5 and 0.3 liter bottles. If you have bottles of the same volume, then adjust the length of the “branches” yourself, cutting the strips to the desired length.
In the left bottom, make a hole, which is fixed on the lower end of the stick with a plastic bottle cork (for strength, you can hammer in a nail).
Put the last, smallest part on the upper end of the stick with the neck up and screw the green cork onto the neck, also securing it with a nail for strength.
A little patience, perseverance, diligence and the forest beauty is ready!
These trees can be used as New Year's decoration your houses!
Method 2. To make such a Christmas tree, you need a minimum of time and cost. A master class on making a Christmas tree from plastic bottles will tell you in detail how to make such an original New Year's craft

If you want to make a Christmas tree from plastic bottles more fluffy, like in the photo, when making a Christmas tree, the needles need to be cut as thin as possible (more often). | |
By the way, the Christmas tree with larger “branches” looks quite creative - a master class from the Country of Masters website. We cut the bottle in the same way as in the previous version into 3 parts. Only cuts are made in a circle to the center, straight. |
|
In the center, a puncture is made with an awl and the needles are bent up and down in order. In the lid of a cream or mineral water, a puncture is made into which a skewer of the desired length is inserted. | |
The parts are strung in descending order, a large bead is placed on top of the glue. The Christmas tree can be decorated with foam, rain, etc. | |
Glue the Christmas tree to the stand from the disk. Christmas tree is ready! |

Nearby you can put gifts or plant an animal. Such Christmas trees have been a success for many years. |
Method 3. And, finally, the last option for today is a Christmas tree made of plastic milk bottles (what decorative Christmas Trees just don’t make from ...). The design is completely collapsible, has the maximum similarity with the original, does not require special complex technologies and specific work skills, there is no problem with bottles either, well, the holiday is on the nose ...
Materials and tools
The material for making a Christmas tree is a milk plastic bottle or part of it (Fig. 1). To make a homemade table Christmas tree, you need 5-20 milk / kefir plastic bottles with corrugation at the bottom. The number of bottles determines the number of branches and tiers. The more branches, the more fluffy the Christmas tree turns out, the more tiers, the higher it is.
In addition to bottles, you only need scissors and plastic rivet technology
plastic rivets
To implement the technology of plastic rivets, it is necessary to have a means for melting (installing) rivets and the rivet itself. You need to manage to melt the head of the rivet with a hot nail or a lighter. You can similarly do this with a well-heated soldering iron. In addition, you will need clamps and tweezers to install rivets in hard-to-reach places.
For plastic rivets, it is very important to choose the material. Fluttering for about a year, by trial and error, taking into account the requirements of strength and accessibility, I identified several sources for obtaining plastic rivets:
1. Empty rods from ballpoint pens. Enough available material. They are good because they are colorless and the connection, with their help, turns out to be organically inscribed in a product made of plastic bottles. Such a rivet turns out to be neat, with a round head, however, it has a slightly reduced tensile strength. In addition, the rod from ballpoint pens is round in cross section and completely fills the drilled hole in the parts to be joined. By the way, the walls of the rods are different thickness, for rivets it is better to use rods with thicker walls.
2. Sticks from Chupa Chups. Similar to option No. 1 only in color. The connection turns out to be more bulky, and the head of the rivet is melted with difficulty (either burns out, or becomes ugly, or unreliable).
3. Most perfect option, and very convenient (I give the world an offer) to use material from buckets with building mixtures for 3, 5, 10 liters There are quite a lot of them left after repairs, and even one is enough for a long time.
From the walls of such a bucket, you need to cut a ring, and cut the ring along the generatrix (only this way) into strips 2 ... 4 mm wide, 4 to 15 cm long. quantity.
Getting a connection with such rivets is unpretentious. It is more convenient for this to pre-prepare rivets of the desired length, on the one hand, melting the head of the plastic rod. To connect two parts with plastic rivets, we overlap the parts, melt them with the same burner, forming a hole desired profile and sizes, we insert a rivet there and by melting we form a head from the opposite end of the rivet rod. Having practiced several times in reflow, the head is neat and tear-resistant.
Let's get started...
To implement the idea, the source material is needed in the form of a part of a milk plastic bottle (Fig. 1a), which is cut along the circumference into two components (Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, respectively). A trunk will be formed from the part adjacent to the neck (Fig. 1b), and branches of the future will be cut from the ring with a central groove (Fig. 1c). Christmas tree. From one whole plastic bottle, two or three rings are obtained. The more rings you prepare, the more fluffy and tall Christmas tree you can collect. I had 20 such rings, no less (10 full bottles).
Plastic rings with a groove in the middle must be cut into several equal parts(Fig. 2) along the generatrices of the cylinder of the bottle. As a result, we get convex rectangles. If cut into 2 parts, then long lower branches of the Christmas tree will be obtained from such long halves, if cut into 3 equal parts, then branches of the middle tiers will be obtained and middle length, and cutting into 4-5 parts, we get small blanks for the upper tiers of the desktop Christmas tree. It is not at all necessary to observe the special uniformity of the dimensions of the rectangles for one type of tiers.
Next, the rather tedious work of forming a branch begins. From each plastic convex rectangle (Fig. 3a), a wedge-shaped blank should be cut with scissors (Fig. 3b). The axis of symmetry of the wedge-shaped part should be along the corrugation groove. Immediately after cutting the workpiece, “needles” should be formed on it, making cuts along the side edges at about 45 degrees to the groove and radially at the end of the “branch”. (Fig. 3c). The needles are alternately bred from the plane of the workpiece also at 45 degrees to each other. The wiring of needles up and down relative to the plane of the branch provides fluffiness to the Christmas tree.
As a result, such painstaking work it turns out several sets (Fig. 4) of branches different sizes for a desktop homemade Christmas tree. Cutting branches and then needles is a rather lengthy task, but you can entrust this to your relatives as part of the collective creativity to decorate life under New Year. It should be noted that it is difficult to accurately determine the number of branches that form a particular tier by eye, so you should always have several rings in stock (Fig. 1c) for cutting branches during the installation of tiers
The place for fastening the branches is the trunk, which consists of several parts (logs). The upper parts of plastic bottles (Fig. 1b) were considered waste during the separation of the rings (Fig. 1c), but now they are also used in spruce construction to create a trunk. The base of the trunk and the lower log is the full neck part of a plastic bottle (Fig. 5a). The upper logs are assembled from blanks obtained by cutting off the threaded part of a milk bottle with a flange, as well as removing a plastic segment along the generatrices (Fig. 5b, 5c). The segments must be rolled up with a tube and fixed on both sides of the generatrix with plastic rivets. Similarly, it is necessary to create several logs for attaching tiers of branches. In my case, these are 3 logs, but there may be more or less of them. For a miniature Christmas tree, 3-4 tiers of branches on just one log are enough.
Naturally, the diameter of the trunk should taper towards the top of the table tree and the diameter of the top log should be smaller than the bottom one. The larger the cut of the segment, the more top log is obtained from the tapered top of the plastic bottle. For the top, you need a half segment, and for the middle part, about two-thirds of the whole neck (Fig. 5b). The diameter of the bottom hole of the top log should be approximately 1 mm larger than the top hole of the bottom log forming the trunk.
It's time to attach the branches to the "logs". On each log, you will need to place 2-3 tiers of branches. A small number of tiers does not allow you to effectively cover the rivet heads with branches, and a large number of spoils the aesthetic appearance of the Christmas tree. In each tier of this design, you can install from 4 to 10 branches. Fastening is carried out with the help of plastic rivets, since quite a lot of plastic rivets will be required, it is better to prepare them for future use. The easiest way is to install branches in tiers on the lower logs (Fig. 6), since the neck in a plastic bottle is wide enough and it is convenient to hold a plastic rivet with inside finger.
If you put the branches close to the circumference of the tier, then one rivet is enough to fasten the branch to the trunk (Fig. 6-8). For lovers of greater reliability, two rivets can be installed side by side. The tiers of branches must be formed like the flooring of the roof of a house - from the bottom up, then the branches of the upper tier will cover the rivets of the lower one and the heads of the rivets will be completely invisible.
In my case, in the lower (Fig. 6) and middle (Fig. 7) logs of the trunk, there are 2 tiers of branches, and in the upper - 3 (Fig. 8). In total - 5 tiers of branches. It is quite enough to acquire an amazing similarity with a real Christmas tree. The installation of plastic rivets on the upper tier, due to its small diameter, should be done using tweezers or a medical clamp.
After fixing all the tiers on all logs, you can proceed to final assembly. But first it is desirable to decide on the top. In my case, without thinking for a long time, I built the top using the same technology as the barrel (Fig. 5), that is, turning the plastic into a cone. But you can do this in a different way, for example, in the form of an asterisk or a ball (I like the cone more). The top of the tree is attached to the upper element of the trunk also with the help of a rivet that is installed from the inside and melted from the outside. The upper part of the trunk, together with the top, already has a miniature table Christmas tree in itself (Fig. 9). It can be installed on the monitor and enhance the feeling of the holiday...
A live Christmas tree grows from the bottom up, in the same order we collect logs with tiers of branches by adding “logs” (Fig. 10) to an existing Christmas tree. Between themselves, it is better to connect the elements of the trunk in a place covered with a branch, at three points along the circumference of the trunk. In this case, the trunk acquires rigidity and will not break if the Christmas tree accidentally falls to the floor from the table, then the Christmas tree is desktop ...
And if you insert a light-dynamic part (for example, a garland) inside the Christmas tree, then in new year's eve she will amaze those around her with her charm:

Glue gun or PVA glue
Shaped hole punch, optional
Pencil or pen
1. Make a cone out of a thick sheet of paper and fix it with glue.
2. Prepare pages from a magazine with bright pictures and cut out many circles of the same diameter from them. If there is a shaped hole punch (the shape of a flower or a large circle) it will be easier.
3. Wrap the cut circles around the pencil so that they curl a little.
4. Starting from the bottom of the cone, start gluing the bent circles.
Make neat rows. The circles should be tightly glued to each other so that the cardboard is not visible.
5. From one circle, make a small cone, and glue it to the top of the cardboard cone.
The tree is ready!
You will need:
Large thick sheet of paper
Wrapping
double tape
Scissors
Decorations
1. Make a cone out of a sheet of thick paper.
* If your wrapping paper is quite thick, you can bypass step 1 and make a cone out of wrapping paper.
1.1 Fold the paper diagonally, holding one end to keep it sharp.
1.2 Secure the folded paper with tape. You do not need to do everything too carefully, since you will cover the cone with wrapping paper.
1.3 Cut off the excess at the bottom of the cone to make a flat base.
2. Prepare colorful wrapping paper and cover the cone with it. To do this, lay the paper face down on a flat surface.
2.1 Using tape, attach the end of the colored paper to the top of the cone.
2.2 Start slowly twisting the cone, wrapping it in wrapping paper. You need to wrap the cone tightly.
2.3 Measure the paper and cut before wrapping the cone all the way around. Glue double tape to the edges and connect to the other end. At the base, you need to cut off the excess so that the paper is even.
3. It remains only to decorate the Christmas tree as desired. You can make paper stars, use glitter, stickers, glue on beads and/or buttons, wrap with ribbon, etc.

* Try using felt in two colors to make the Christmas tree even more beautiful. AT this example I used yellow and orange felt.
1. Make a cone out of cardboard. Secure the ends with glue or double tape.
2. Prepare the felt and cut out circles of different diameters from it, from small to large (see picture). You can use pre-prepared circle templates made of cardboard.
3. Glue Christmas tinsel to the bottom of the cone.
4. Now you need to make a criss-cross cut in the center of each circle cut out of felt. Do not cut too much so that the felt robe does not fall. Make an incision exactly such that you can tightly put the circle on the cone.
5. Start gradually putting the circles on the cone. If you use two colors, then put on the circles in sequence, first one color, then another. Also worth noting. That you need to put on the next circle not only on the cone, but also over the tips of the cuts of the previous circle.
6. We decorate the top of the Christmas tree. To do this, simply add tinsel, to which you will need to add a pre-prepared small cone of felt. Fix the tinsel and crown with glue.
* If you wish, you can hide a sweet gift inside the cone.
You will need:
Floral florist net (preferably several shades of green)
Scissors
Cardboard for the cone
PVA glue
Cellophane
pins

Decorations on request
1. Make a cone out of cardboard.
2. Wrap the cone in cellophane.
3. Take any container and make a solution of PVA glue and a small amount of water in it
3. Prepare your floral grid. Cut it into small pieces and lower each into a container with a solution.
4. Start gluing the pieces onto the cellophane-covered cone. Glue different shade grid segments in different directions. The joints should be anointed with another layer of glue for a more durable fastening.
5. Secure the entire structure with pins and wait for the glue to dry.
6. You have the first layer of the Christmas tree. Now in the same style you need to make a second layer. After finishing gluing the second layer, leave the structure to dry.
7. Now remove the Christmas tree from the cone - the glue should quickly lag behind the cellophane.
8. Place a garland inside the Christmas tree, which you need to secure with floral wire.
9. It remains to decorate the Christmas tree according to your taste.

Plastic or foam cone (or you can make your own out of cardboard)
PVA glue
Pasta various forms and sizes
spray paint, acrylic paint or gouache
Tassel.
1. Prepare the cone and paint it in the desired color. Wait for the paint to dry.
* If you are using spray paint, you can skip this step.
2. Prepare pasta. Start applying glue to each piece and stick the pieces to the cone. Create a Christmas tree design the way your imagination tells you.
After applying the glue, press the piece a little and hold it so that it adheres well to the cone. It's okay if glue is visible from under the pasta.
Continue until you have covered the weight of the cone with the pasta. Wait for the glue to dry.
3. Start painting on the pasta. In this example, acrylic paint was used. Try to carefully paint all the details so that there are no empty spots.
* It is desirable to paint in two layers.
* If painted with white paint, the Christmas tree will look like a porcelain product.
Helpful advice: if you want to remove the craft, then put it first in plastic bag, so you can immediately find the part that may have come unstuck from the cone.
You will need:
Colored cardboard or design paper
Thick cardboard
Glue moment or glue gun (with hot glue)
1. Cut out a square base for the Christmas tree from thick cardboard.
2. Insert the skewer into the cardboard and fix with glue.
3. Now you need to cut out circles of different diameters from designer paper or colored cardboard. You need to make 3 circles of the same size.
For example, if you want to make circles in 10 different sizes, then you will need to cut out 30 circles (3 for each size).
* If you don't want to cut out a lot of circles, just shorten the skewer and you end up with a cute mini Christmas tree.
4. Make a small hole in the center of each circle.
5. Before you start putting the circles on the skewer, grease the hole in the middle with glue.
6. Start putting the circles on the skewer, leaving some space between them.
7. Cut out stars from paper and glue them to the top of the Christmas tree. You can use another detail for the crown and not necessarily paper.
You will need:
thick yarn
Pile yarn
Cone (made of cardboard or foam)
pins
Decorations to taste.
1. Do paper cone or buy a Styrofoam cone in specialized stores.
2. Take both strands and secure their ends with pins at the base of the cone.
3. Start winding the threads around the base of the cone, pinning about every 2 inches.
4. Now start moving towards the top of the cone, gently wrapping the future Christmas tree with both threads. At this stage, you do not need to attach the thread to the cone.
5. When you get to the crown, secure the threads again with pins, wrapping the threads several times around the crown.
6. Both yarns now need to be pulled down, also wrapping the cone with a second layer.
7. Cut the threads at the base of the cone and fasten them.
You can leave the tree as it is, or you can also decorate it.
In this example, artificial berries were used for decoration, but you can use multi-colored beads, buttons, buttons, etc.
Try also to make a decoration for the top of the Christmas tree. The crown can be decorated the way you like.
You can leave the tree as it is, or you can also decorate it.
You can make just a paper hat or a star, or you can make something more complicated. If you chose the latter option, then the instructions for you follow.
You will need:
flower wire
Wire cutters (for wire)
sequins
PVA glue
Fine wire (calibrated wire)
1. Bend the wire into a star shape (see pictures) and cut off the excess.
2. Cover the star with glue and sprinkle glitter on it.
3. Attach a thin wire to the star, as shown in the picture:
4. Attach a star to your Christmas tree.
If you want something original, or you just don't have enough space for a large Christmas tree at home, you can try to make such a simple design.
It is worth noting that such a tree is suitable for any room. It can be done both at home with children and at work.
This Christmas tree can rise by 1.5-2 meters and takes up almost no space in the house. In addition, it is a good background for New Year's photography.
You will need:
Foam base or matte cardboard
Scissors
corrugated paper
masking tape
adhesive tape
PVA glue
Stationery knife
marker, optional
1. Expand on flat surface styrofoam or cardboard to get a large rectangle (see picture).
2. Use adhesive tape to connect all parts.
* In this example, black tape was used for better visibility, but white tape is better.
3. Mark your size future Christmas tree using masking tape.
4. Using a utility knife, carefully cut out the shape of the future tree.
5. cook corrugated paper, fold it in half and cut the fringe. You should have plenty of fringed paper to cover the entire Christmas tree.
6. Start gently gluing the crepe paper to the styrofoam, starting at the base of the tree. The fringe should hang a little below the base to cover the foam (or cardboard) and also cover a little upper part tree trunk, which we will make later.
7. Move to the top, covering the entire tree with a bright green fur coat made of crepe paper.
8. With reverse side Christmas tree, add a hook so that the tree can be hung. Instead of a hook, you can use double tape to cover the perimeter of the Christmas tree.
