New Year is the most magical holiday! In the New Year, I want to believe in a miracle and a fairy tale, both for children and adults. But you can not wait for a miracle - you can create it with your own hands.

I will tell you how to make a small beautiful Christmas tree with a ball, which can become a decoration at home, and a desktop in the office, and as a gift it will be very good! :)
Materials needed to create a Christmas tree:
- cotton fabric for patchwork;
- binding cardboard 1 mm thick;
- gold (or other) cord;
- a piece of paper for scrapbooking;
- eyelet;
- ready-made decorations (artificial cones, berries, spruce branches and other decor);
- Christmas ball;
- a sheet of office paper;
- PVA glue (for carpentry);
- instant glue;
- hot glue.
Tools:
- metal ruler;
- construction knife;
- pencil;
- brush for PVA glue;
- glue gun for hot glue;
- stationery clips;
- scissors;
- hole puncher;
- eyelet installer or eyelet installer and hammer;
- Printer.
So, let's begin:)
You can use my template by printing it on an A4 sheet. The Christmas tree according to this pattern will turn out to be about 22 cm high.

Cardboard 1 mm thick will be enough. Thicker cardboard is more difficult to cut along curved lines, especially if you are new to this business.
A small digression about binding cardboard and tools for cutting it.
Cardboard comes in different thicknesses - from 0.5 to 5 mm, approximately. It should be cut with a large knife (dummy, construction) - in straight lines along a metal ruler, along curved lines by hand. It is necessary to cut the binding cardboard gradually, over and over again drawing the knife along the same line, trying to keep the blade perpendicular to the cutting plane. For cardboard with a thickness of 1 mm, as a rule, two passes of the knife are sufficient. Do not try to cut through the cardboard in one motion - it is difficult and there is no need to load your hand like that.


In order for the template not to move during cutting, I applied PVA glue pointwise in several places on the Christmas tree and stand, and glued the template to the cardboard. Then it can be painlessly removed.


I will share my cutting algorithm. You may find your own course of action.
To begin with, I cut through the branches of the Christmas tree from the inner corners to the outer ones along their upper borders. I brought the cut line along the lower branch to the edge of the cardboard.


Then I cut through the lower borders of the branches, and brought the cut line from the top branch, along the top, to the edge of the cardboard. And removed the corner.


Then I cut out the bottom of the tree. The straight lines of the trunk were cut along the ruler.


And finally cut out the left side of the Christmas tree. The direction of the cut lines is indicated in the photo.


The tips of the branches and the top of the head were rounded with large sharp scissors.


I removed the template from the Christmas tree blank, and circled the blank with a pen on another piece of cardboard. The photo shows that there are small traces of paper from the template, but they won’t bother me at all. I will cover this part of the Christmas tree with fabric on the other side, and the paper traces will hide inside the tree.


Similarly to the first Christmas tree, I cut out another one of the same.


Then, according to the template, I cut out the oval part of the stand. I didn’t cut a hole in it, but only marked it with a knife - I’ll cut it out later, trying on a Christmas tree pasted over with fabric in place. I transferred the part of the stand to cardboard and cut out two more of the same ovals.


I applied PVA glue to the Christmas tree and smeared it with a brush. The layer of glue should be thin so that it does not show through the fabric, and uniform so that there are no unglued spots that can turn into bubbles.


I glued the Christmas trees to the fabric and cut them out with allowances of 5-10 mm.
Please note that the Christmas trees must be glued to the fabric in a mirror image to each other.


I cut the allowances in strips, not reaching the cardboard 1 mm (i.e., the thickness of the cardboard).


In sharp corners between the branches of the Christmas tree, I always made an incision right into the corner.


I did not cut the allowances around the trunk.


I tucked all the allowances and glued them on the wrong side, except for the lowest one - at the base of the trunk. She left free "tails" there.


I applied a second glue around the perimeter of one of the Christmas trees, closer to the edge, and on the plane of the cardboard.


She folded the Christmas trees inside out to each other and pressed them well.
Secondary glue works precisely at the moment of compression, and the quality of gluing depends primarily on the compression force, and only then on the exposure time.
Those places where the allowances turned out to be the thickest (at the ends of the branches and at the top of the Christmas tree), I pressed down with clerical clips, after placing pieces of cardboard under them so that there were no depressed marks on the fabric.


Using punch tongs, I made a hole in the upper left branch of the Christmas tree.


And installed a grommet in the hole. If you do not have a special tool for installing eyelets, you can take your Christmas tree to some studio or shoe repair shop.


Applying a thin thread of second glue to the junction of the Christmas tree parts, I glued a golden cord around the perimeter of my tree.




I tried on the finished Christmas tree to the stand to determine the required length of the slot.


I measured the thickness of the tree.


And in two oval blanks I made cuts of the right size.


The blanks were glued together to make a stand 2 mm thick. Of course, one could immediately take cardboard 2 mm thick for this. But, given the oval shape, it's easier to cut two pieces out of 1mm cardboard than one out of 2mm :)


Just like the Christmas trees, I pasted over the stand with a cloth, turning all the allowances inside out. In the hole, the fabric was cut in the middle and wrapped inside the slot.


The Christmas tree was inserted into the slots so that the lower edge of the trunk was flush with the plane of the stand.


Allowances and laces spread out in different directions and glued well.


The remaining (third) oval part was pasted over with scrapbooking paper. If you wish, you can paste over this part with a cloth, like all the others. Or you can use felt.


And I glued this oval to the stand from below with the help of second glue - just like I glued two Christmas trees together. In a circle, I fixed everything for a while with clamps.


And just as before, she decorated the joint of the parts with a golden cord.
And then I collected at the base of the tree a small composition of an artificial spruce twig, cones, berries and a gold brocade ribbon. All this decor was attached with a hot glue gun.




In conclusion, it remains only to hang a bright ball, and now the mood becomes New Year's, a little more beauty, miracle and magic appears in life;)
Thank you for reading to the end.
I will be very happy if my idea is useful to you, and wonderful Christmas trees will appear in your homes!
Happy New Year!
May there be many days of joy in it :)

Happy New Year!
May there be many days of joy in it! "

The Christmas tree is, without exaggeration, an international symbol of the New Year, and it is also an image associated with childish carelessness, miracles and cute fairy tales. And if there is anything to give for this holiday, it is an original Christmas tree, which you can make yourself - for example, from cardboard.

We offer you original ideas: how to make a Christmas tree out of cardboard with your own hands, ready-made templates, step-by-step instructions with photos and videos.

Beautiful does not mean difficult, so many models of cardboard Christmas trees can really be made even by children. Although they look very impressive, they can serve not only as an excellent craft for kindergarten or school, but also as a nice addition to a gift to relatives and friends.

From cardboard and tinsel

For the manufacture we need quite a few materials:

  • white cardboard (it is advisable to take different formats - traditional A4 and larger ones from A1 to A3);
  • green or multi-colored tinsel - as anyone likes;
  • glue stick;
  • double sided tape;
  • compass;
  • sweets in beautiful wrappers - round truffles look especially impressive.

Here's how to make such a Christmas tree:

Step 1. First you need to make a cone. To do this, on cardboard, using a compass, draw a circle of arbitrary diameter, depending on the height of the Christmas tree: 15 cm, 20 cm, or even 30-40 cm. Then we cut exactly a quarter from this circle and glue the remaining parts, forming a cone, as shown in the figure.

Step 2. You can immediately make cones of different sizes, but their shape should be approximately the same - the upper corner is quite sharp.

Step 3. Now, with the help of a glue stick or PVA, we simply stick the tinsel - in a circle to the very top of the head. For beauty, you can take 2 different tinsels of contrasting shades and simply alternate them in a spiral.

Step 4 Now let's attach the candies. This can be done with glue, but it is most convenient to use double-sided tape. It turns out that such a delicious beauty is a great gift for a baby, and he can make it on his own.

And once again we will repeat the entire sequence of actions in the photo.

From cardboard and cotton pads

This craft is made a little longer, because it requires more painstaking work. However, all the actions are simple enough for younger students to cope with them.

We again need:

  • cone,
  • a lot of cotton pads (100-200 pieces depending on the size of the model),
  • glue,
  • stand. It can be made from some container, a pot, which is better to decorate with tinsel beforehand.

The sequence of actions is as follows:

Step 1. First, as in the previous case, we make a cone.

Step 2. And now we prepare cotton pads. They just need to be folded in half 2 times, then apply glue to the bends and fix them on the surface of the cone, as shown in the photo.

Step 3. And so we glue the cone with discs to the very top. This should be done quite carefully, in even rows. For convenience, on the surface of the cone, you can first (still on the circle) draw several even rows for reference with a compass.

Step 4. Now let's make a stand. To do this, take a small pot and wrap it with shiny paper or tinsel, fixing it with glue.

You will also need to make a "barrel" from a cardboard tube, on which to stick a circle of cardboard. It is attached to the inner side of the cone, after which the structure becomes quite stable.

Step 5. Well, now the most pleasant stage is to decorate the Christmas tree in the way that fantasy tells. Ribbons, bows, tinsel, sparkles, colored paper figurines will do. It turns out a real collective creativity, in which several kids can participate.

You can see the whole process visually here:

In general, making Christmas trees from cardboard based on a cone is a fairly popular technique that allows you to use creative imagination in all its glory. Indeed, along with cotton pads and tinsel, you can use a variety of materials - for example, threads, self-adhesive rhinestones, etc.

10 inspiring ideas: how to make a Christmas tree with your own hands

And there are other ways to make Christmas trees - here are 10 ideas for inspiration.

Christmas tree made of cardboard - original photo stand

And now let's move on to a more complex cardboard Christmas tree model. For example, an original gift - a photo stand. You can make such a Christmas tree with your own hands and give it to colleagues, relatives and friends, and just please yourself with an original decoration for your favorite holiday.

Each person has, perhaps, hundreds and thousands of photos in stock, but among them there will surely be that very favorite photo, which in itself creates a festive mood. Why not make a special stand for such a picture?

We will need:

  • green cardboard - 1 sheet;
  • a skein of thick threads of green or blue-green color;
  • white boucle threads or cotton balls;
  • glue;
  • pencil;
  • scissors;
  • beads;
  • glue gun.

We will act in stages:

Step 1. First of all, we fold a sheet of green cardboard in half with the wrong side outward, after which we depict a half of the Christmas tree on it. To do this, you can simply print the template or draw from the sample.

Step 2. Cut out the workpiece along the contour (when folded).

Step 3. Now let's take up the threads. They need to be folded in layers several times and cut into small pieces (1-2 cm each), putting them in a previously prepared container.

Step 4. Now comes the rather painstaking stage of work. Lubricate the surface of the Christmas tree with glue-pencil and stick the skeins on it. It is better to do this in stages so that dust does not accumulate on the sheet.

Step 5. In this way, you need to decorate only the top 3 sections, since we will decorate the bottom one differently.

Step 6. Let the Christmas tree lie down for a few minutes, and the glue will dry a little. In the meantime, take a boucle thread or just roll up a few small lumps of snow-white cotton wool.

Step 7. These lumps can be glued with a glue gun or glue stick. The work must be done carefully enough so that no glue stains remain on the surface.

Step 8. And now you need to make tinsel for decoration. We will use a thread-grass or other similar material.

Step 9. We attach tinsel, glue other decorations - we get such a festive stand for a photo.

New Year in the office: Christmas tree in a hurry

There are cases when you need to make a Christmas tree literally in a matter of minutes - for example, a friendly company is ready to receive guests or the team is actively preparing for a festive corporate party, which is about to begin. For such situations, we can get by with the simplest version of the Christmas tree with our own hands.

We will need:

  • sheets of colored cardboard or any cardboard and green paint;
  • scissors;
  • pencil;
  • colored paper, glitter and other elements for decoration.

Creating such a model will not take much time:

Step 1. First, fold the cardboard in half and draw a half of a Christmas tree on it - literally 3 or 4 triangles of different sizes, as well as a small trunk. Cut out along the contour. We attach the blank to another sheet of cardboard, draw a pencil around the contour and cut out exactly the same model.

Step 2. Cut out the stand: cardboard circles with bases (2 or 3 intersecting lines). We make neat cuts along the lines.

Step 3. And now we bend the Christmas tree blanks in half and insert them one by one into these slots: 2 or 3 pieces, depending on how many lines are made at the base.

Step 4. It remains only to paint the Christmas tree green and decorate it with colored figurines, sparkles and other materials.

For example, here are such stars, which can also be cut out of cardboard.

By the way, a cardboard Christmas tree can withstand even the weight of a small garland - we will use this opportunity.

How to make a Christmas tree out of cardboard with your own hands: 10 ready-made templates

Of course, in the manufacture, you can use a ready-made template. Here are a few samples of the New Year's forest beauty that can be printed, cut out, and then made from cardboard in a matter of minutes.

Christmas tree 3D in papercraft technique

And here is another very interesting model of a forest guest, which, despite such an ornate name, is made quite simply. Although, of course, in this case you need to spend a little more time.

And the result will definitely please you, because the finished product will look like this:

In order to make a Christmas tree from cardboard with your own hands using the papercraft technique, we will need:

  • several thin sheets of cardboard (or thick sheets of colored paper). By the way, they can be alternated in color: dark and light green;
  • glue;
  • compass;
  • ruler;
  • pencil,
  • and also a stick or wire.

We will act like this:

Step 1. The product is based on the same workpiece - this is a circle drawn by 6 lines and 2 circles. The largest circle is twice the diameter of the smaller one.

Step 2. Such blanks need to be made 5-6 pieces or even more. Each subsequent one is 1-2 cm smaller than the previous one in diameter.

Step 3. After all the models are prepared, we cut the circle inward to a smaller circle, as shown in the photo. We glue each fragment, making a cone out of it.

Step 4. At the last stage, we simply string each element onto a stick or wire (you first need to make a hole in the center with a needle).

Step 5. The crown can be made from a small cone of the same color. It remains only to decorate our Christmas tree and put it in the most prominent place.

Using the papercraft technique, you can make several different Christmas trees - “thicker” and “slenderer”. It will turn out a small forest, which will surely be able to create a cozy atmosphere of childhood in any home.

By the way, this “forest” is easy to make hanging - for this you can take a beautiful ribbon and attach it to the top of the trees with glue or a needle.

Details and comments can be seen here:

Folding Christmas tree made of cardboard - we make it easy and fast

And here is another quick option - such a Christmas tree is made from several cardboard circles, which are also mounted on a skewer.

Accordingly, we need:

  • cardboard,
  • wire or wooden stick,
  • as well as a plastic bottle cap or other similar item - it will be a stand.

We will act like this:

Step 1. Cut out several circles of different diameters - each subsequent one should be 2 cm smaller than the previous one.

Step 3. After all the blanks are ready, we straighten them, make a small hole in the center and put them on a skewer.

Step 4. The last step is to make a hole in the stand (lid) and attach the skewer to it. We decorate our Christmas trees - that's all, the holiday is approaching!

Here are just a few examples of how to make a cardboard Christmas tree with your own hands. It is clear that the finished model can be of completely different sizes - from small beauties on the table to quite large ones that can be placed on the floor or on a bedside table.
