The modern market of Christmas decorations allowsmake the celebration of the New Year unforgettable and unusually decorate the room. But often the cost of toys on the tree is quite high, and if you want to save money, a little imagination and effort will help you in this.
Make toys on the tree with your own hands is not at allit is difficult and it does not require special materials or skills. We offer you several options for making Christmas decorations using different techniques and materials.
Simple Christmas ball of paper
This is a very easy to make jewelry,which you can easily do with your child. To do this, you will need a thick colored paper of different shades, thread, scissors and glue. As the basic material for the toy, old postcards are also suitable. The ball will be original from newspapers, made on this technology.
Take a glass, a glass or other round dishes,depending on the desired size of the New Year's toy. Circle the wine glass on paper 12 times. It is preferable to use paper of three colors. In this case, you should get four circles of each shade. Cut them with scissors.
Each circle is folded in half and they are alltogether add up in one pile. In our case, we use pink, blue and blue paper. To get a beautiful ball, arrange the details in the manner shown below. Pink mugs - under the number 1, blue - 2, blue - 3. We put it this way: 122331122331.
Fix the circles between each other with a stapler or wire, and the parts are connected together.
Straighten all the circles, and glue the edges together. Each semicircle is connected with one adjacent in the upper part, and with the other - in the lower one. At the final stage, we attach the thread to the toy.
New Year toys of thread
This is a very effective decoration element, which can beuse to decorate the house before the New Year, or even as part of the overall design of the room. In order to make such a New Year's toy, you will need PVA glue, balloons, fat cream and threads of any color and texture.
In a bowl, dilute the glue with water in a 3: 1 ratio.
We inflate the balloons to the desired size and bind them with a string.
We take yarn, which will become the basis of the decoration. We rewind the piece, of approximate length which should be enough for wrapping the ball. We put it for five minutes in a vessel with glue.
In the meantime, we smear the ball with cream. When the thread has been lying in a sticky solution for a long time, we begin to wrap it around the ball. At first the distance between the threads will be large, but gradually the yarn will become larger and the bead will look like a cocoon.
We glue the thread to the bottom of the ball and leave it to dry for at least 24 hours. If desired, in addition to the yarn on the ball, you can paste small beads, buttons or other jewelry.
After the toy has completely dried, gently blow off the ball and remove it from the cocoon. Now it remains only to attach a thread to the New Year's toy to hang the balls on the Christmas tree.
Other options for creating New Year's toys
With our own hands, we can not only create newdecorating, but also revitalize the old. For example, a ball that no longer looks festive because of a faded paint or worn out drawings can be wrapped with a piece of beautiful cloth and bandaged with tape.
Very simple toys on the Christmas tree can be made from old beads or beads. Just take the wire, string the beads on it and bend it in an arbitrary shape (for example, a Christmas tree or a snowman).
To give old ornaments a new life it is possible and with the help of old garlands or rests of braid, simply having smeared adornment with glue and tightly wrapping with available material, densely laying it horizontally.
Ornaments can be made from ordinary salted dough. Simply mix the water, salt and flour, cut from the dough figures of any shape, and when they are baked - paint in any color.
