Most people think that only children love sweets. But this is not at all the case! Many adults are crazy about chocolate, pills, or toffee. Such people will be pleased to receive a delicious gift, especially if it is made with their own hands. How and from what to make such an original present?

Candy shapes

Chocolate, caramel, toffee - candies are considered the most versatile material for making a gift. After all, even if they do not have a candy wrapper, you can make it yourself from paper with the desired pattern and receive a gift of a certain color.

What can be made from sweets, what shape can be given to a sweet present? Often there are "candy" cars, ships, fruits, fairy-tale characters and just bouquets. They are made, as a rule, on a rigid base, gluing sweets on it.

One of the most difficult, but at the same time the most original crafts is the house. It is appropriate to hand it over or as an additional gift. But such a surprise will do for other holidays as well. How to "Build" a Candy House?

1. First you need to stock up on rectangular and square sweets in candy wrappers. It is good if they are dense enough.
2. Be sure to think about what will be the basis of the house - a cardboard box or a few bars of chocolate. In any case, you should get a cube, which will be decorated with sweets.
3. "Walls" are best pasted over in such a way that it looks like a brickwork. Square sweets will be used on the "foundation", and the roof should be made sloping and the sweets should be glued on it one under the other - so it will look like a tiled one.
4. The structure can be supplemented with a door and a bench made of chocolate bars, a pipe made of candy, etc.

In general, not only the house is made of square sweets. Such material is suitable for any crafts with angles: cars, steam locomotives, airplanes, tanks, turrets, etc. And if you need to make something round, then the sweets will need round, but flat bottom, so that it is more convenient to glue them.

Cakes

A cake made from different sweets looks spectacular. You can "build" 2, 3 and even 4 tiers. It depends on the amount of starting material. The base, of course, should be made of cardboard, and not already glue it with a glue gun of sweets.

1. In order not to suffer with dragees, marmalades, caramels and other trifles, for the lowest layer you can take boxes of juice, rectangular packages of cookies or biscuits. They are glued and tied with a ribbon for reliability and beauty.
2. The gap between the edge of the lower tier and the base of the second one needs to be filled with something. Here you should focus only on your imagination and on the combination of colors of the wrappers. Chocolate eggs, colorful dragees (since they are not wrapped, they are glued to sugar syrup), and even small chewing gums are suitable.
3. The base of the second tier is best made from thin chocolates or from small bars. They are lighter than juice or biscuits, so you don't need to bandage them with tape.
4. If a third tier is planned, then it can be made, for example, from lollipops. They are stuck in a foam or floral sponge, glued to the cardboard base of the cake and decorated at your discretion.

If you don't want to use cardboard as a frame, then you can take something solid, such as glass jars of puree (for babies) or muesli bars (for adults with a sweet tooth).

How to decorate such a cake? From edible decor, you should pay attention to multi-colored chewing marmalade, airy Rafaello sweets in transparent packaging, small bezeshki, candied fruits, nuts in glaze, etc. Ribbons, candles, paper flowers, tinsel, colored foil can also become decorations. beads and stuff.

Original kits

Sets of sweets, in contrast to cakes and figurines, are easier to make. But this does not make them less cute and original. They are often given just like that, for no particular reason, with an emphasis on showing attention. What is required for these sets?

• capacity;
• sweets;
• decor;
• paper.

Delights can be of the same type or completely different. This will affect how the gift looks in the end.

Multicolored dragees or gummies will look good in a small transparent jar, and large chocolate bars and sweets in a box.

The most elegant set, of course, will be the sweets in the basket. You can put not individual sweets into it, but packages with different delicacies, "dilute" them with a can of good coffee or a bottle of wine. A cardboard box is suitable for presenting cookies, macaroons, muffins, handmade chocolate that cannot be turned over, as well as any fragile product.

You will need paper to wrap sweets or make small notes with wishes. Scrapbooks not only decorate such homemade kits, but also function as postcards.

There is another option for a sweet gift - this is a panel. It is made from cardboard or even a piece of plywood, gluing the treats to the surface. Next to each chocolate bar, candy or gum, a wish is written, somehow connecting it with the name of the sweets.

In general, it is not so difficult to make gifts for a sweet tooth with your own hands. But to make them look beautiful, you need to make them slowly, preferably according to a pre-drawn layout. And then they will turn out no worse than design work!

It is difficult to find a person who does not like when gifts are presented to him, and if they are also tasty, this is doubly pleasant.

Today on the network you can find a huge number of options for surprises using sweets, so you can safely experiment and surprise your family with original gifts made with your own hands. Always happy when a person thinks about what to give.

There are options for decorating sweets in gift sets that are equally suitable for both a boy and a girl - you can make a sweet album or poster from chocolates and other sweets. You can make unusual candy wreaths or bouquets, candy toys. A children's cake made of kinder surprises and kinder chocolates looks very beautiful.

There are a lot of holidays when it is necessary to give something, but it is very important that it is also remembered for many years. For example, if you are going to a child's birthday, then try to make such a surprise that would please him. Many people know that any child is happy with sweets. But since he loves delicious products, it is better to present him with a sweet gift with his own hands, for example, an edible car. The child will love this idea as it is very original. This requires the following details:

• Styrofoam;
• thick cardboard;
• scotch tape, preferably double-sided;

First you need to make the frame of the machine from foam, for this we cut out the shape and get ready to make the wheels.

It is important to remember that you need to leave the windows, so you can draw eyes on the front windows. Such a gift of sweets will definitely please your sweet tooth.

Birthday Candy Gifts

Who does not want to receive an unusually beautiful present for his birthday, in which sweets and wonderful plants are "mixed". Below we bring to your attention a selection of step-by-step photos that will illustrate the process of creating a gift flower basket.

You can make an unusually beautiful basket with the help of cardboard sheets, by the way, you can easily dispose of waste material, for example, a cereal box. Check out the photo instructions below as soon as possible.

First, you should make a blank for the basket itself. According to the proposed template, cut out the workpiece, bend it in the right places. Place the porous material inside. Wrap with a beautiful fabric, glue the golden braid, decorate the handles made of wire with the same braid. Pearl beads can be used as an additional decoration. Place a lot of candy flowers inside (we have already described the principles of their manufacture above).

And here's another design option for the basket - the step-by-step photos below will tell you about the process. For work, you need a real basket, in which the porous material should be placed.

Transform candies, wire and corrugated paper into beautiful flowers of different shapes and sizes. Fit the sponge tightly with them, close the remaining gaps with shreds of greenish organza.

DIY gifts from sweets - master class "Lotus"

Everyone will like a beautiful lotus flower, but it is not very difficult to do it - you just need to follow the photo instructions.

As an auxiliary option, prepare a wine cork - cut a circle from it, which will need to be pierced with green wire. Twist the tip - fix so that the cork is securely held. Cover the cork with glue and "plant" a round candy on it.

Using the photographs, make a lot of details for the lotus from pink and green corrugated paper. Stretch the petals (arrows indicate the direction, pull gently so as not to break the part). Thus, prepare all the elements and start assembling the lotus. First, glue three pink things to the "candy on a stick", then a few more, filling in the gaps. Finish with the pink petals, and then glue the green stalk details. So the delicate lotus is ready, which can be used to decorate any composition or gift box.

As you can see, there is an original idea for the use of sweets for any holiday. Agree that giving sweets in boxes is boring enough, which is why we recommend that you turn to sweet design and continue to present only bright and exclusive presents.

Made for this holiday. It's time to think about the amenities. And now we are not talking about expensive and complicated presentations. And we will simplify everything and make sweet gifts with New Year's symbols.

There are a lot of ideas, there are some that only an adult can do, and there are those that a child will calmly repeat.

Let's talk about the creation of the sweets themselves, as well as about the ideas for packaging sweets. Believe me, every member of your family, from old to young, will be delighted with such presentations. And all this is unusual, to be honest. After all, what is the value of homemade gifts? Yes, the fact that they feel the care and a piece of the soul invested in them. After all, coming up with different compositions and sketches, looking for ideas, a person thought about you!

Let's start with the design ideas. As always, all ingenious is simple. I liked the idea of ​​glass assembled snowmen, similar to those shown in the photo. Glass jars for baby food will be used as a basis (usually there are many of them in every family). And if not, then running to the store for apple or fruit puree - and tasty and healthy!

Master class №1. Snowman

• 3 jars,
• thermo gun,
• acrylic paints,
• sock,
• scissors,
• sweet fillers (cocoa, marmalade, marshmallows).

We start the craft. We take 3 jars of baby food. We remove the labels from them. We dry it.

Now we take acrylic paints - white, black and orange colors. Draw a snowman's face on one jar.

On the rest, the buttons are black.

Now we twist them with lids and use hot glue to glue the bottom of the jar with the lid.

Let's make a hat out of a sock. To do this, take a NEW bright sock and cut off the part with the elastic. The side that we sew on the cut from the seamy side.

Now we take woolen threads and make a pompom. We sew it to the hat. We fix it to the lid on the snowman's head with glue.

Now we fill the jars with goodies! We pour cocoa into one, marmalades or MMS into the second, and marshmallows into the head.

To this I decided to add an even more lightweight idea of ​​packaging from a glass bottle.

Just decorate it with ribbons, braid, pine cones and other decor and fill it with goodies! It is very unusual to receive such a gift. Even adults are happy, because we are all little children at heart.

New Year's gift "Christmas tree" made of chocolate with kinders

I also liked the idea with chocolates and kinders. It is her that I will bring to life this year and put under the tree for my daughter (she really respects the kinders here).

Master class number 2. Sweet herringbone

• 3 chocolates,
• 3-9 kinder (how many will be included),
• tinsel,
• decor,
• thermo gun.

We take three chocolates, preferably with one color of the package. We glue them with hot glue along the edges to make a triangle.

To give the structure rigidity, we will cut out the background from cardboard.

It is better to choose shiny holiday cardboard in blue, red, green, gold or silver colors.

Now we apply our sweet triangle to the seamy side of the cardboard and outline its contours along the outside of the chocolates. We cut out the resulting part and glue it to the chocolates.

Now we glue the kinders inside the hot glue.

It is better to do this in a checkerboard pattern.

If you have chocolate weighing 100 g, then an average of 3 eggs will go into the tree.

It remains only to decorate the tree with tinsel or hairy wire and a star.

The craft looks very bright and festive!

Video idea - candy in a chocolate bottle

There is a wonderful idea for a totally edible gift. But it requires great care and patience. Therefore, it is more suitable for adults and high school children. And you will need to make a chocolate bottle, which is filled with sweets.

A detailed description of the manufacturing process is given in the video.

To use less chocolate, use a smaller bottle.

Edible chocolate cups can be made in much the same way.

Master class number 3. Edible cups

All instructions are described in the photo. We take a plastic glass and pour some melted chocolate into it. Then we put the glass on its side and distribute the viscous liquid along the walls so that there are no gaps.

Then let the chocolate freeze and carefully separate it from the glass.

Decorate as desired with a cloth, cream or whipped cream. Place sweets or cookies inside.

Any chocolate can be taken. However, you can add food coloring to white and get the colors you want: red, blue or green.

Of course, you only need to store this gift in a cool place, otherwise the glass will simply melt.

Christmas deer from a glass jar with sweets

We are very fond of various gummies and chocolate covered nuts. But we do not indulge in them often. Therefore, this is a good idea for a gift, but they need to be beautifully wrapped. And for this I propose to make such a funny deer.

Master class №4. Candy in a jar with a deer

• jar,
• candies,
• felt,
• thermo gun,
• fluffy wire
• elements for eyes and nose.

Again we need a transparent jar. It is better to choose those with sloping sides. They can be glass or plastic, it doesn't matter.

Now we cut out a strip of at least 4 cm wide from brown felt.

If you have a label, then the strip must be at least as wide as the label. The length is equal to the diameter of the can.

We glue the strip to the place where the label was or is. Now we draw or glue the finished eyes and nose. Pom-poms, beads can enter in their capacity.

We twist the horns from the shaggy wire and fix them on the lid of the jar.

Put your favorite sweets and gummies inside. And we are all set!

Look, I found an even simpler idea where you don't even need felt!

A very unusual solution! Also, such packaging can become a New Year's table decor.

DIY pineapple candy with a surprise

I don’t know about you, but for some reason it is popular with us to give pineapples and coconuts for the New Year. Well, since the idea is not new, then we will use it. Only we will not buy the finished fruit, but we will make it ourselves.

Master class №5. Pineapple candy with a surprise inside

• glass jar,
• small candies,
• large round candies in a golden wrapper, like Ferrero,
• green felt or cardboard,
• thermo gun.

We take a glass jar of baby juice. We remove the etiquette with water.

Pour small candies or gummies inside.

Now we take candies in a golden package. We will fix them on the bottle. This should be done from the bottom edge in rows. So we move to the top.

Then we cut out oblong leaves from green cardboard and decorate the neck of the bottle with them.

That's all. This gift is quite expensive, you can see for yourself which candies were taken. However, it can be repeated with other flavors. You can simply take a round treat and wrap it in foil.

Mini gifts with lollipops

O! Now let's talk about what to do when you need to present a large number of children. For example, a child in kindergarten has many friends and I want to congratulate everyone. We have just this case! My daughters and I found a way out - we made a deer with a chupa-chups. It turned out very inexpensive and cheerful!

So, you need to take a mini lollipop. They cost 5-7 rubles with us.

We translate the diagram onto a thick sheet of paper, but you can print it.

It is better to take thick sheets, my daughters and I tried - album sheets tear easily. Nevertheless, the child is engaged in the craft, including.

Now we cut through a place for a lump - inside the deer and a hole for a stick. We paint the horns and eyes. We decorate the face and let it dry.

We insert a lump and glue the horns with glue. Decorate with tinsel or bows.

We've got such a cute thing.

By the same steps, you can make Santa Claus.

I also propose to collect a mini-present. We take beautiful bright festive cups. Put sweets and candies inside. we wrap all this yummy in transparent gift paper.

We fasten the top with tape, a stapler and decorate with ribbons.

The same gifts can be used to give gifts to children in kindergarten on Birthday Day.

Original packaging for chocolate

I also propose to present good people with chocolates! But not simple, but decorated in the form of snowmen. Not trivial and very uplifting!

Master class number 6. Snowman packaging

• chocolate bar weighing 90-100 g,
• album sheet,
• sock,
• markers,
• glue.

We need a chocolate bar with a neatly tucked edge, like Russian.

We wrap the chocolate in a sheet. Gently press the folds with your fingers so that there is a shape. We glue the slices from the inside.

If it turns out that there is a lot of album left, then we cut off the excess. We fix the edges.

We draw a carrot, eyes and mouth. You can glue felt or beads on this place.

Now we make a hat and a scarf from a sock. Cut off the part where there is an elastic band and a heel at the new sock.

We turn it inside out and sew it up.

We select the edge where there is a seam and collect it so that we get a pompom. To do this, we pull it together with threads.

We put a hat on a chocolate bar. Cut out a scarf from the rest of the sock.

That's all! Add more pine cones and spruce twigs to make the holiday smell.

It is also better to choose expensive types. For example, "Babaevsky" is an expensive chocolate and you want to pack it accordingly. For this purpose, I advise you to use an envelope. Described in more detail.

DIY sweet gift ideas

You can donate candies with your own hands or cake pops. I suggest making simple sweets - nuts in chocolate glaze. To do this, simply melt a chocolate bar in a water bath and wrap hazelnuts, cashews or peanuts in it.

Cake-pop is a biscuit dough cake, it is very tasty and is always placed on a stick. And now you need to tinker with them! You will find many recipes and the process of their preparation in a separate one.

Therefore, here I will not give recipes, I will show only a photo instruction with step-by-step actions.

Of course, you can very easily make lollipops, such as cockerel. For this, you only need lemon juice, sugar and water.

Use this recipe: granulated sugar - 10 tablespoons, water - 10 tablespoons, lemon juice - 0.2 tsp.

Everything is cooked to a viscous consistency and poured into a mold, where the candy will harden. To shape the candy into the desired shape, you can take cookie molds, ice containers, or cut out a shape from cardboard.

Not everyone can have a lot of sweets. So I come up with a fruit idea. What's New Year without tangerines? And there are never many of them!

Make a herringbone out of them.

Or a bouquet. What does the New Year smell like? Cinnamon, vanilla, pine needles, oranges, tangerines and lemon.

So combine it all in one bouquet.

Kids can experiment with marshmallows.

These marshmallows can be slipped onto cream and muffins or cookies.

Very cool gifts come from cheap sweets! We took pretzels and marshmallows. They dipped it in the glaze and it turned out to be a fawn.

A similar idea, only Oreo cookies were planted on a stick.

We repeat the same idea with berries.

Experienced housewives can bake and decorate gingerbread.

Also, each should be wrapped in individual packaging. By the way, you can take any homemade cookies that you do well. Decoration is not a problem at all now - there are many types of glaze that does not crumble.

This idea is, of course, more complicated. But what if she also inspires someone?

Gingerbread houses are always popular.

Of course, you can depict the symbol of 2019 - the Pig.

I think that from all of the above, you can collect many different presents. But we do not stop and move on.

"Santa Claus sleigh" from sweets

Oh, this sleigh! They are done in 10 minutes, but they look very dignified! You just need to look well for runners for them. In this capacity, special curved lollipops act.

We put these candies parallel to each other. We glue a chocolate bar on them.

We fix the rest of the treats on double-sided tape or hot glue, we seat the figure of Santa Claus or a snowman.

In this craft, it is important to observe the proportions: the longest and flattest delicacies are the basis of the sleigh. And on it already all those that are smaller. Medium to small.

Then you get a harmonious composition.

This principle is visible in all the photographs in this section.

Great, right?

Holiday candy ideas for delicious gifts

Of course, what is not made of sweets. After all, they are so bright, tasty and colorful.

For example, you can make chimes that show the same time every year.

Or just pack the candy separately for each one!

Compositions are made in the form of balls.

Or in the shape of a pig!

An unusual idea of ​​packing sweets in plastic caps. By the way, this material is easily connected when heated. In order for the gift to be stylish, the candies need to be matched by color.

Of course, delicious Christmas trees! I'll tell you about them in more detail now.

Master class number 7. Candy tree with tinsel

We make a cone out of paper. To do this, take an A4 sheet and fold it into a cone. We glue the edge with tape, and cut off all excess.

We attach tinsel to double-sided tape, starting from the base. And we alternate the rows: tinsel, candy, tinsel.

You can fix the layers with a thermo gun and super glue. But it is more convenient to use double-sided tape.

Of course, we won't get around the idea of ​​a sweet New Year's wreath.

Candy bowls are also popular. It is customary to give sweets in them. For example, you can make such beauty from threads, PVA glue and a balloon.

Or a cardboard idea.

Master class number 8. Craft from cardboard

We take three strips of green double-sided cardboard, at least 2 cm wide.

1 strip - 8 cm,

2 strip - 14 cm,

3 strips - 20 cm.

We mark the longest in three equal parts and glue the triangle.

On a long, middle one, mark 2 centimeters each and bend it like this: two corners inward, one outward. Repeating this sequence throughout the strip. glue this part to the bottom of the triangle.

We do the same with the middle stripe. We glue it over the long one. We turn the small one into a triangle and fix it on the top of the craft.

Now we need to make a barrel out of brown paper, where we will also put the sweets.

To do this, measure the width of the candies and put them on brown cardboard. We cut out a strip, glue it and fix it to our tree.

It remains only to put in a treat and decorate the craft.

Master class number 9. Golden tree

• thick cardboard
• candies,
• thermo gun,
• glue,

Using this scheme, we cut out the parts and glue them. This is the base on which the craft will stand.

We make a cone. Measure out the dimensions shown in the figure and cut out the part. Paste it over with beautiful paper. The allowance must be bent inward and glued from the wrong side to the second side of the part. This will create a cone.

We begin to glue the cone with sweets from the bottom, we chose expensive round things. Then place the cone on the base and fix it from the inside. Decorate with beads, sequins.

Master class number 10. Green craft

• bottle,
• flat-edged sweets,
• Scotch.

Glue a strip of adhesive tape to each candy from the flat edge of the wrapper so that it occupies only half the width of the strip.

We glue the candy to the bottle, starting from the bottom. We do the work in rows, gradually moving up.

We decorate the cork with a star and the gift is ready.

Another idea of ​​a boot-shaped candy holder.

It is made from the sludge of a plastic bottle.

You might like Rafaello's candy box idea.

The idea is to make the box look like a house. To do this, we cut off the edges of the box, and in their place we attach the roof.

The side of the roof can be lifted to make it easy to pull the treat out.

Children can wrap a sweet gift on their own. For example, in such a snowman.

Or use different containers of unusual shapes for this purpose.

Even such plastic cups can be used to put sweets.

It is better to take glasses wider and lower.

Gift Tags

We bought sweets or made them by hand and arranged them into gifts. Now all that remains is to sign who they are addressed to. And for whom we have tried so hard.

Therefore, I am attaching ideas for tags with New Year's symbols to the article.

This is especially convenient when the child was making various lollipops or cake pops. I think about different people. That is to say, so that nothing is forgotten.

Thank you for your attention and inspiration! I will be happy to continue to share ideas with you on various topics.

The anticipation of the holiday is often more pleasing than the holiday itself. Especially if you approach this business responsibly and start preparing gifts in advance.

First, prepare the foundation for the work. Wood or plywood, if necessary, need to be sanded with sandpaper, they can be painted or varnished.

Prepare a drawing template in advance on paper. Fix it on the base with masking tape and hammer nails along the contour at equal intervals. Their height should be the same - do not forget to control this.

Remove the paper template. Now came the most creative stage of the work - wrapping nails with threads.

Tie the end of the thread to one of the studs and cut off the tail. Start wrapping the nails in random order with threads, sharp corners should be formed between them - constantly change the direction and try to grab each nail at least once.

At the end of the work, tie a thread to one of the nails and cut off the tail.

Tank made of socks - an original gift for a man

Socks to her husband on February 23rd are the subject of many anecdotes. But they can also be presented in such a way that a loved one with delight cannot even utter a word, not to mention jokes.

To decorate a gift you will need:

• 5 pairs of solid gray and dark socks:
• a bottle of your favorite drink with a capacity of 0.3 liters, preferably with a high neck;
• colored paper;
• wine stopper;
• toothpick;
• 2 rubber bands for money;
• leg-split;
• glue;
• tape.

Wrap the bottle with black paper and wrap its shoulders with twine so that the neck remains unwound. Sort the socks by color with the heel in the middle.

Twist the gray socks into tight rollers and secure with elastic bands.

Connect them together, putting on loops of twisted elastic. You should end up with one garland of 6 rollers.

Wrap the resulting construction in 2 dark socks. Tuck the sock of one into the elastic of the other.

Slip the sock over the bottle, pulling it up to the twine. Wrap the rest up and tuck under the elastic.

With the second toe, wrap the bottle across, with the heel inward. To make it clearer - look at the photo. Hide its ends under the fold of the first sock.

You should get this design. It can be fixed for strength in the corners with sock staples or small paper clips.

Wrap the wine cork in black paper. Place the turret of the tank on the tracks. Straighten any irregularities. Make a flag out of a rectangle of colored paper and a toothpick. Insert it under the twine and fix the entire structure with tape.

A cool gift for your favorite tanker is ready.

Candles of the original form

An unusual multifaceted candle will become a wonderful and useful souvenir. Despite the seeming complexity of the form, it can be done easily and fairly quickly.

For work you will need:

• candle template printed on glossy photo paper;
• paraffin;
• crayons of the desired color;
• wicks;
• scissors;
• ruler;
• PVA glue.

First of all, you need to download and print a candle template of the desired shape in the desired size. You can use regular cardboard, but using glossy paper will make the surface of the finished product smoother and smoother.

Carefully cut the pattern along the outline.

Bend all the edges with a ruler.

Glue the edges of the template: they are numbered so that it is clear in what order to connect them.

Press the edges firmly to ensure good adhesion of the parts.

The glued preform can be coated with acrylic paint to prevent possible wax leakage.

Melt the paraffin in a water bath, add crushed crayon of the desired color and aroma oil (optional) to it.

Place the wick in the center of the mold so that it reaches the bottom of the mold and carefully fill in the paraffin.

When it's completely solidified, remove the paper mold from the candle. Your creation is ready.

For work you will need:

• small glass jar;
• black matte paint;
• masking tape;

For a candlestick, it is better to choose a small jar of an interesting shape. In the middle of it, stick a wide strip of masking tape. Draw a heart on it in the shape and size you want.

Cut it out along the contour with a sharp knife. Carefully peel off any excess tape, leaving the heart glued on.

Paint the outside of the entire jar with black paint. To do this, it is convenient to use paint in a spray can.

• glue gun;
• pencil;
• scissors;
• ruler;
• scrapbooking paper;
• braid, ribbons, rhinestones, beads and other decorative elements.

On a drawing paper, draw a rectangle with dimensions equal to the inner dimensions of your frame. Cut it out and glue it into the frame. Mark the places for rectangular panel elements. Cut out frames of the desired width and desired size from black cardboard, stick them on a Whatman paper.

Glue scrap paper of any color with arbitrary patterns into each small frame. The elements of the picture can either be in harmony with each other or contrast.

Decorate each blank of a large panel as you wish: glue a lush satin ribbon bow, interesting buttons, voluminous flowers made of corrugated paper, decorative stones or large beads. The design of the painting and the flight of imagination at this stage is limited only by the materials at hand that are available. You can supplement the work with inscriptions or photographs.

• willow rods of the same thickness or wooden skewers;
• glue gun;
• masking tape;
• spray paint of the desired color.

Cover the mirror surface with paper and masking tape. Make markings on the back of the mirror so that the rods are spaced at equal intervals. Stick on the longest branches first.

Paint the rods and mirror frame with the desired color and leave to dry completely.

Attach a loop to the back of the mirror so it can be hung on the wall.
