 The Christmas tree is one of the main attributes of such a large-scale holiday as the New Year. Nobody forgets about it, buying live or artificial Christmas trees to their home and decorating it with different outfits, souvenirs, garlands. We will make a Christmas tree out of paper, which can be placed somewhere in the apartment (for example, on the table), or it will not even be a shame to give such a craft to relatives or friends. Next, we will deal with several ways to create Christmas trees from paper.

How to make a Christmas tree out of paper (1 way)

You will need green paper, a ruler, compasses, glue, scissors and a pencil (or a tube for juices, cocktails).

  1. Using a compass, draw a few circles on paper. Each next circle is 1-2 cm smaller than the previous one. Choose the number and size of the circles yourself, depending on what size you want to see the Christmas tree in front of you.
  2. We fold each circle in half once, a second time and a third time (that is, you need to fold each circle three times in half). To make the fold lines clear, we draw along the edges with scissors.
  3. We straighten the circles. We cut a hole in the center of each that matches the diameter of a pencil or tube (depending on what we will use). It is also worth saying that the circles are the tiers of our future Christmas tree.
  4. We glue the pencil or tube with green or brown paper.
  5. Now we begin to collect the Christmas tree. All tiers are strung on a pencil.
  6. We decorate the top of the Christmas tree with a beautiful bead or star. Decorate the Christmas tree, if desired, you can sparkle

How to make a Christmas tree out of paper (2 way)

You will need green paper, scissors, pencil, glue, compasses, ruler, needle, wire.
On green paper, draw a circle with a compass, the size of the lower tier of the future Christmas tree. Next, draw another circle inside the first circle, stepping back from the first one a little more than half the radius.

  1. Using a ruler, divide the circle into 12 sectors.
  2. Along the lines of cases, an incision to the inner (second) circle.
  3. We turn each sector into a cone, which we fix with glue.
  4. Similarly, we create the rest of the blanks, gradually reducing their size.
  5. We make a hole in the center of each blank with a needle.
  6. We turn the bottom of the wire into a spiral.
  7. We collect all the tiers of our Christmas tree on a wire. We fix on top a cone made of paper.

How to make a Christmas tree out of paper with your own hands using the quilling technique (3 way)

You will need: green paper strips 5 mm wide and four strips of 1 cm each, red and yellow strips 3-5 mm wide, toothpicks, glue (instant and PVA).

  1. We use four green strips having a length of 30, 20, 15 and 10 cm. Using a toothpick, we twist them. We remove the part from the toothpick and let it bloom a little. We fix the end of the strip with PVA glue. We give all the spirals the shape of a drop by holding and slightly pulling one of the ends of the spiral up.
  2. Tightly wrap wide green stripes on a toothpick and glue the tip to them, preventing it from blooming. This will be our tree trunk.
  3. For the top of the Christmas tree, we make a drop from a green strip with a length of 30 cm.
  4. Now we begin to collect the Christmas tree, fixing its elements with instant glue. We glue the parts of the trunk and give the glue time to dry.
  5. We insert a toothpick inside the trunk and glue our droplets-twigs. We start gluing with the smallest ones, which we glue to the top of the Christmas tree.
  6. We make toys from yellow and pink stripes by twisting the paper without using a toothpick. You can fasten the ends until the paper is unwound, or you can make the toys a little looser and give them the shape of small droplets. Glue balls to the branches you like.
  7. We glue the drop at the very top (do not forget about it), and decoration on it.
  8. You can make, if desired, a stand. To do this, you will need to make nine curls from white paper strips. Tightly glue the curls together. Now we fix the Christmas tree on a snowy white stand with glue.

How to make a Christmas tree out of paper with your own hands (4 way)

You will need: green cardboard, glue, scissors, adhesive tape, colored paints, pencils, felt-tip pens. Stickers, glitter, etc. can be used as additional decorations.

    1. Fold a sheet of cardboard in half and cut it along the fold line.

    1. Fold the resulting parts in half again.
    2. Draw a half of the Christmas tree on one of the halves of the cardboard opposite the fold (see picture).

    1. Fold the sheets together and cut with scissors along the drawn line. As a result, you will get two Christmas trees of a similar size.
    2. Mark the middle of each tree discreetly using a ruler.
    3. Make an incision on one tree, starting from the top to the middle, and on the other from the bottom (base) to the middle.

    1. Insert the Christmas trees into the cuts to end up with one voluminous Christmas tree.
    2. To give the Christmas tree more stability, use adhesive tape - use it to glue the lower and upper halves.

  1. To decorate the Christmas tree, use pencils, felt-tip pens, sparkles and other materials. You can use a hole punch to make small multi-colored circles, which then stick on the Christmas tree. An asterisk can be glued to the top of the head with tape.

How to make a Christmas tree out of paper (5 way)

You will need: colored cardboard, glue, scissors, a hole punch, a small stick with a diameter approximately equal to the diameter of the holes that are obtained from the hole punch, decorations to taste.


A rectangular cardboard is taken, folded several times as shown in the picture above, and then pierced in the center with a hole punch. Then this cardboard is cut at an angle so that the craft in the end does not look like a Christmas tree (see picture). We drag our stick into the hole, and if it does not hold firmly, then we can fix it with glue. We decorate the Christmas tree. Jewelry can be attached with glue. Such a Christmas tree can be placed somewhere (if you make a basis for it), or you can hang it somewhere.

How to make an original Christmas tree from colored Japanese paper with your own hands (13 way)

You will need:

- colored cardboard

- thick paper with a pattern (can be replaced with colored cardboard)

- colored or wrapping paper (you can use a page from an old magazine)

- a white sheet of A4 paper

- 2 skewers

- pencil and ruler

- PVA glue or glue stick

- scissors

- a darning needle (if necessary).

1. Cut out 14 rectangles of 2 of the same size from colored cardboard. In this example, 2 rectangles are 21 x 28 cm, two more are 18 x 28 cm, then (also 2 each): 16 x 28 cm, 13.5 x 26 cm, 12 x 26 cm, 9 x 25 cm, and 6 x 22 cm.

2. Preparing the basis for the Christmas tree:

Cut plain A4 paper into strips 2 cm wide. Roll the strip into a circle, add a little glue at its end and glue the next strip (see image). Repeat the same action until you glue all the strips into one large circle with a diameter of 3.5 cm.

* The larger the circle, the more stable the tree will stand.

3. Take a large rectangle of colored cardboard and start folding it with an accordion, 1.5 cm wide. Cut the ends of the accordion into a rounded shape.

4. Fold the accordion in half and glue the sides - you have a semicircle.

5. Repeat the same with the second rectangle, then glue two semicircles to form a circle - these will be the branches of the lower level of the tree.

* To secure the halves of one circle, you can pass a thin wire through them and twist its ends from the back.

6. Make similar images for 6 more levels of your Christmas tree.

7. Take colored or wrapping paper and cut off several small rectangles from it, about 2 cm wide, with which you will later cover the skewers.

The skewers will play the role of the tree trunk.

8. Thread the skewers through one large circle. Since you need to leave gaps of about 2 cm between the circles, these gaps need to be hidden, so we will wrap them in small rectangles of colored paper.

9. After each circle, wrap the skewers with colored paper, 2 cm wide, and glue its ends. Continue repeating this action until all branches of the tree are put on skewers.

10. It remains to insert the skewers into the round base (see point 2) and fix them with glue.

* You can decorate the top of the Christmas tree to your taste - a paper star, a bead or a button.

Big Christmas tree made of paper


You will need:

Sheets of green paper (preferably 2 shades - the lighter ones will be at the top of the Christmas tree, and the darker ones at its base)

Cardboard cylinder 2 pcs. (from paper towels)

PVA glue or hot glue

Scotch tape (if needed)

Big bow.


1. From green sheets of paper, you need to twist a lot of cones of about the same size. Fasten the edges of the cones with tape or glue so that the cones do not unwind.


* Try to keep all the cones in one place for attaching with adhesive tape or gluing with glue so that they are not visible when creating the Christmas tree.

2. Glue two cardboard cylinders together so that the tree can become tall.


3. On the cylinders, draw lines at the same distance from each other so that you can evenly glue the cones.

4. Start folding the tree. Apply glue to the tip of one cone and press it to the cylinder, or rather to the drawn line. It is better to start gluing the cones from the bottom up.


* Glue so that the opening of the cone is on the side of the cylinder (i.e. tree trunk).

5. Glue the entire row of cones, pressing them firmly against each other and, if necessary, gluing them together.

6. Move up and glue the next row of cones. But you should not stick cones on the top of your head.


For the top of the Christmas tree, it is best to glue several cones together. Glue a large bow to them and "put" the whole structure on the cylinder. It doesn't have to be glued on.



New Year is the most fun and most children's holiday. Even adults are not afraid to look ridiculous in red Santa Claus hats and with a bunch of gifts. What can we say about the children, who in this joyful mess are trying to participate in all matters! The main attributes of the New Year are Santa Claus and a Christmas tree. Traditionally, a large Christmas tree is decorated with toys and tinsel, round dances are danced around it. But what if you make an unconventional Christmas tree? A beautiful do-it-yourself paper Christmas tree will not pretend to be the centerpiece, but it can decorate a nursery or become a souvenir gift. Believe me, such a Christmas tree will find a use for itself.

A Christmas tree is made from paper, cardboard, colored and corrugated paper, tinsel and any other materials at hand. It is easy and fun to do: the kids take part in the work with great pleasure. Two-year-old children, for example, can roll up plasticine balls, which then become a toy, or glue a small piece in the place indicated by adults. And the memories of the joint craft will last for several days.

There are at least a dozen ways to make a paper Christmas tree with your own hands, but in any case, you will need:

  • Paper (colored, corrugated, thick - whatever)
  • ruler pencil
  • Glue and stapler
  • Scissors
  • Sometimes a compass

Model No. 1. Volumetric paper Christmas tree

First, the base of the Christmas tree is made - a cone. If the tree is planned to be large, the cone is made of whatman paper (it can be replaced with four A4 sheets glued together). The center is marked in the center of the wide side, we draw lines from it to the two lower corners, cut it off (do not forget to leave an allowance for gluing), cut off the semicircular base, glue it, check whether it is even. On this basis - a cone - you can make several different options for Christmas trees. It might turn out big tree from paper, if you make a large cone, and a small one - on a small cone. A different ways the manufacture of needles will generally be misleading: it may seem that these are different Christmas trees.

To make the blank cone look like a Christmas tree, we make needles from colored paper. Traditionally, the needles are green, but it can be assumed that there is snow or frost on the branches - the choice of color is up to you. We outline the rectangles: for the lower needles, the width of the rectangle is 7 cm. We make a trapezoid from the rectangle: the upper side is cut off. The wide side is folded into a triangle and fastened with a stapler or glue, it is convenient to glue the top to the cone.

Volumetric needles can be replaced with circles glued behind upper part. If you cut circles of different shades of green, the tree will look more original.

The needles are glued in rows, starting from the bottom. To make the Christmas tree look beautiful, every three rows we reduce the size of the needles. That is, we first draw rectangles of 6.5 cm, then 6 cm and 5 cm. We draw the top of the Christmas tree with a small cone, the bottom of which we cut with triangles. If desired, the Christmas tree is decorated with sparkles. You can use ready-made sparkles, you can finely chop the tinsel. Apply glue to the needles and sprinkle glitter on them.

The second version of the Christmas tree-cone

We build a frame, cut thin short strips from colored paper, wind each strip on a pencil. The stripes take on a twisted look. With a certain skill, you can twist the strips of paper with scissors: gently draw the blade of open scissors from one end of the strip to the other, while pulling the strip. Glue the twisted strips to the cone. You can decorate the Christmas tree with anything: sparkles, bows, balls, stars.

The third version of the Christmas tree-cone

Glue drop needles onto the prepared frame. We make needles from strips of green (or any other) paper, glue their ends together - we get a drop. Glue larger drops at the bottom of the cone, smaller ones at the top.

The fourth version of the Christmas tree-cone

Wide strips of paper cut into fringes are glued to the base. Again, the strips are wider at the bottom (respectively, the needles are longer), at the top the strips are narrower. The color of the needles can be any: green will make it natural, multi-colored - decorative. We cut the strips into small “needles”, not cutting to the end about 1.5-2 cm. After the glue dries, the needles can be bent upwards - carefully draw a scissor blade from the base of the needles to the ends. Such a Christmas tree made of corrugated paper will look beautiful.

Model number 2. Christmas tree made of paper and cardboard



Cardboard will need double-sided. We fold a sheet of cardboard in half, draw the outline of the Christmas tree. We draw exactly the same contour on another sheet. We cut out both contours, then we make cuts along the axis to the middle: on one Christmas tree from above, on the other from below. We insert the parts into each other. We decorate with tinsel, balls (glass or paper), sparkles - anything. In the photo - slotted toys.

A similar Christmas tree can be made from colored paper. It will require 4 sheets. Fold each sheet in half, cut out a triangle. The resulting parts are glued together and cut at an angle of the needle. You need to twist them before the glue has dried.

Model number 3. Christmas tree made of colored paper

For this model, you will need thick paper. It is done simply: cut out a triangle, fold it with an accordion, make a through hole into which we insert a stick-rod.

She will definitely create a New Year's mood.

Model number 4. Christmas tree in papercraft technique

How such a Christmas tree is made of paper, the diagram shows clearly. It is necessary to cut several circles of different diameters (the bottom of the Christmas tree - from circles of a larger diameter, the top - from circles of a smaller one). Circles are drawn and cut, needles are folded. Finished tiers are strung on a rod. We decorate the Christmas tree with sparkles, beads, foil bows - the fantasy is limitless.

Model number 5. folding herringbone


For such a Christmas tree, several circles of different diameters are cut. The diameter and number of circles depends on the desired size of the Christmas tree. Fold each circle in half 4 times, unfold and straighten the circles. The trunk of the Christmas tree can be made from an old pencil, a straw for a cocktail, a wooden stick - all this is wrapped in colored paper, the tip is glued. In the center of each circle we cut a small hole (it should be smaller than the diameter of the trunk in order to hold on tighter). Circles-tiers are strung on the trunk, starting from the bottom. A Christmas tree stand can be made from a wooden coil, cork, lid from plastic bottle, plasticine, glued from thick paper.

You will need three blanks in the form of semicircles of different diameters, on which make such a fringe. Then fold and glue each sample to form a cone. Then, on the largest cone, put a little less on top and then smaller.



There is another option, which is made of one paper cone and pasted over with circles. He looks amazing, you can't take your eyes off him.


By the way, I found a similar work in this story, who needs to dare. There, the author came up with the idea of ​​making mugs with the help of one little thing, in general, see everything for yourself.

In addition, you can still completely fold the Christmas tree in this way, using circles as a basis, and use wooden caps instead of a stand.






If you have wrapping paper lying around, then twist the bag out of it, cut off the edges so that they become round at the base and decorate.


Moreover, you can make a huge craft in this way, while gluing several cardboard sheets.


Then decorate the cone with packaging and glue the edges to the base.


Trim everything you don't need and decorate with stars or balls.


Now let's do the craft using cardboard, which we will fold.


To create such a product, print out this stencil.

After attach to the cardboard and circle the stencil, cut it out. And fold it in half. Make 8 pieces of such products.


Pass the edges of each Christmas tree with a hole punch, and then, where the middle is, the fold line that you made before, walk along it with double-sided tape.


Now it remains to sew the edges, where the holes are.



Apply glitter or fake snow from an aerosol and put a star on top.


Next work, take a cardboard base and stick a stick into it and secure with glue. And then cut out circles of different sizes from old postcards and stick them on a stick.


Something similar can also be done from wrappers or just newspaper or magazine sheets.


Or you can create a souvenir from children's hands. It also looks good, especially since schoolchildren or preschoolers are always happy with such work.


By the way, here is another idea from a newspaper or magazine.



Can you make a green tree out of an accordion? Fold a salad-colored office sheet in the shape of an accordion and pierce the middle with a hole punch. Insert a stick into the resulting hole.





Among other things, on the Internet, I saw such a lovely composition.

Here are a couple more ideas, write your suggestions or corrections, how and from what else you make such pretty Christmas trees.



Even from the leaves for recording, and then, they managed to create a real masterpiece.


For children kindergarten such a work is suitable, take a thick cardboard and cut it in the shape of a triangle. A base will come out, on which ask the child to stick the strips.


Well, in conclusion to this chapter, here is another invention, this is a quilling herringbone.


Master class on making a New Year's tree from napkins

It turns out that you can also quickly build a Christmas tree from ordinary napkins, and if you fantasize with color, it will turn out to be absolutely unique.


Such a masterpiece is made in such a way that circles are drawn on a napkin, and after that the middle of each figure is connected with a stapler. Then cut along the contours of the workpiece.


And straight to the middle, start to crumple the edges, lifting them up. To make a flower. And then glue to the conical base, which you make in advance. You can even decorate in the form of a topiary. Here, decide for yourself.


In more detail, if you are interested in this work, you can also use this step by step instructions in pictures:




Tree stencils for cutting and printing

For those who love vytynanok-style masterpieces, they will take these stencils as a basis. Using a regular clerical knife, cut a Christmas tree, or you can take a special tool that the masters of this business have.


Cut out two blanks at once, cut a strip on top of one, and cut a strip on the bottom of the other.


Here are a couple more ideas, what beauty can appear, see for yourself. Delicate and white forest beauties that are so attractive.


Take a leaf and crush it in half, draw patterns and outline the spruce. Cut out all the pieces with a cutter.


Take your time, this job does not require fuss.


You can print the template, and do not fold and draw a tree yourself. Don't forget to leave gaps on the bottom of the paper as well so that you can roll them up and glue them later.


That's what I mean. As soon as you make these two blanks, connect them together.



And I suggest downloading stencils right now from my blog:




. Here I propose to arrange them unexpectedly, namely, use the origami technique. This can be done using ordinary triangles, which are obtained by folding ordinary squares.


The next work, for its implementation you will need two sheets. On one you print a Christmas tree and make cuts along dotted lines, and then glue this blank to the background.




Whoever does not understand the stages of work in this picture, he may well use the video hint.

Another masterpiece, using the same origami technique, you will get a cool little thing that you can give to your mother or loved one. Watch the instruction and repeat step by step.

Best regards, Ekaterina

Good afternoon, today I am unloading the most large selection Christmas trees made from paper. Here you will see the most interesting models - there will be Christmas trees from crepe paper, from napkins, from cardboard, you will learn how to make a Christmas tree from a paper cassette from eggs, from rolls from toilet paper and little bags folded from book pages. In this selection of master classes we will consider only paper versions of the most beautiful do-it-yourself Christmas trees - both flat models and three-dimensional designs. Here are ideal options for crafts for the New Year's school competition.

So let's get started.

Idea #1

Beautiful Christmas tree FROM PAPER FANS.

Even children will be happy to make such a voluminous Christmas tree. The principle of addition is very simple - you must first make fan circles of different sizes. And then these mugs are strung on the SAME ROD BASE (which we used in the previous Christmas tree). Or you can do it without a rod - just stick the tiers on top of each other (dropping a drop of glue in the middle of each "floor" of the Christmas tree.

Below we see the principle of creating such fans. They are made from a long strip of paper. The strip folds into an accordion. We turn the accordion into a ring (fastened at the edges with glue). After the glue has dried sew one side of the accordion ring with a needle and thread- tighten the thread (very carefully so as not to break through the paper) - and at the same time lay the accordion ring in a flat circle. We press on the middle of the resulting circle with some object - thereby we crush the convex ribs of the accordion so that they wrinkle and become a little flatter.

Different sizes of Christmas tree tiers are achieved by a simple principle- the narrower the strip for the accordion we have, the smaller the circumference of the fan resulting from it will be. Below in the photo you can see a detailed master class on creating such a Christmas tree out of paper.

That's so beautiful christmas tree comes from bright paper napkins or from sheets of gift paper.

And if we put a BEAD between each tier of a fan Christmas tree made of paper, then we will get air, the space between the tiers of the Christmas tree (as is done in the photo of the paper Christmas tree below).

Idea #2

Christmas tree-box FROM PAPER.

But this method is the most convenient for beginners. Convenient in that here a simple drawing guarantees a 100% result in the form of a neat volumetric Christmas tree made of paper. Especially since this Christmas tree can be used as packaging for small gifts, if jewelry is hidden inside, or a bottle of perfume.

Since the layout of the drawing above requires a large square piece of paper - I give a more economical way to spend paper space (template diagram in the photo below). You can cut the blades of the Christmas tree separately in two pieces. And then fold, glue them cross to cross.

Idea #3

BLADED Christmas tree made of cardboard.

And here is a paddle Christmas tree made of cardboard or thick paper. It's also very easy to make your own. To create such a Christmas tree, you can use the usual packaging corrugated cardboard(as in the photo below).

How many blades-wings can such a Christmas tree made of cardboard have.

You can make a four-bladed Christmas tree by criss-crossing two flat pieces. To do this, in each silhouette of the Christmas tree, you need to make an incision along the central centerline to the center of the tree. On one part, the incision is made on the TOP HALF of the silhouette - on the second part, the incision is located on the LOWER HALF of the silhouette.

I found such a stencil of a Christmas tree made of paper, but you can take any other shape of a Christmas tree with any lines of legs (smooth, rounded, twisted up, etc.).

If desired, such a Christmas tree cross can be placed on the base in the form of a cardboard roll (a saw cut from a toilet paper roll is suitable). On such a roll, we make 4 cuts (south, west, north, east) - and insert each of the four blades of our Christmas tree into these cuts.

But the blades of the Christmas tree can be more than four - FOR EXAMPLE you can make two silhouettes - 2 with a notch at the bottom and 2 with a notch at the top.

And then combine them into such a Christmas tree with the photo below - it will have as many as 8 blades(as in the photo below). Each blade can be pasted over with a different shade of green colored paper. Can be used as decoration paper gift paper polka dots, diamonds, flowers (as in the photo below)

Using a similar paddle technique, you can make beautiful balls-toys for such a Christmas tree - also from paper.

Idea #4

Christmas tree from paper circles.

And here is another idea for a voluminous Christmas tree made of paper. We make this Christmas tree from ordinary flat paper circles. We fold each circle repeatedly along the DIAMETER LINES. We align each fold edge with alternation - one up, one down, one up, one down, and so on. Detailed master class in the photo below.

You can improve this tree model if, in addition to everything, you bend half of every second such rib upwards - as if forming ladle shape(how it's done in the photo of a Christmas tree made of paper below). And in each such bent ladle-foot he will put a bright bead. And we will get an already decorated Christmas tree made of paper with a beautiful three-dimensional shape.

Idea #5

Flat herringbone IN ORIGAMI TECHNIQUE.

And here is another simple one example of origami technique to create a modular paper Christmas tree.

Here we just fold from a square napkin paper modules(the napkin folds 2 times along the floors, and then unfolds and folds again 2 times in half but already DIAGONALLY.

Then we lay the napkin back and bend it along the lines formed so that each corner of the diagonal fold is like a separate blade.

From several of these bladed modules-tiers, we fold the Christmas tree - simply by gluing it onto a flat base. Often such an origami paper tree can be seen as an application for a New Year's card.

Idea #6

Christmas tree made of PAPER,

strung ON THE ROD.

If we have a rod that we made to stand exactly vertically and not fall, then by stringing a variety of paper silhouettes on it, we can get a Christmas tree craft.

The main rule to follow is to make sure that the bottom paper silhouettes are larger than the top ones. That is, so that the size of the parts decreases as you move up to the top of the tree.

The most important thing is to MAKE A ROD. How to quickly and easily make an axis-base from a cocktail tube, so that it turns out to be strong and inflexible.

But what herringbone (pictured below), which is made of STRIPS of felt, but it can also be made from strips of colored paper or cardboard).

Everything is also very simple. MATERIAL: cut stripes the colors we need, we take tube for cocktail(it is better to insert 2 turbos one into one to make it longer), cardboard(for the base circle), hole punch and stapler(either glue or thread with a needle. Now I will tell you in detail how we will make such a Christmas tree at home - with our own hands.

STEP ONE. We are preparing the base-rod for the Christmas tree-crafts.

And cut out 2 identical disc circles from cardboard. Leave one cardboard disc intact. And in the middle of the second disk we make a round hole (we punch it with a nail and expand it so that the tube from the cocktail crawls through). Wrapped in a cardboard disc cut the tube with scissors from the bottom side(vertical cuts of 1 cm each - chik-chik - how we cut straws to blow soap bubbles). We push these cuts apart like rays of the sun. And we get such a "beam-like spread-leg". We put this spreading leg on the second cardboard disk (the one that remained intact, without a hole).

And now WE GLUE BOTH DISCS - and it turns out that the spreading leg is now with its rays, sandwiched-glued between the cardboard disks - and as a result, our cocktail tube stands EXACTLY VERTICALLY STRAIGHT.

STEP TWO. We string material for the “feathering” of the Christmas tree on the rod.

We cut the tape (fabric or paper or felt) into strips. Please note that the strips are not the same length. Each pair of strips is 1-2 cm smaller than the previous pair. In the center (middle) of the strips, we make holes with a hole punch (or cut with a nail or scissors). We string the strips onto a tube-rod - first long ones, then shorter ones and at the end the shortest ones.

And now we glue the strung strips (or sew them together with threads, or fasten them with a stapler) in pairs with an order such that we get an ACCORDING-ZIGZAG (as seen in the photo). We attach a star to the top of the tube - we also cut out two silhouettes of the star (front and back) - so that the top of the rod is hidden between the two sides of the star.

Idea #7

TIERED Christmas tree

from paper or cardboard.

And here is a nice voluminous Christmas tree made of cardboard. Here we also stocked up with paper circles of different sizes. The edge of the circles was made wavy. Then each circle was cut along the radius - and turned into a cone. And the cones were strung on a rod.

How exactly to string the cones on the rod so that there is air between them (and so that they do not fold like little bags into a friend) I will show using the example of white lacy Christmas trees made of paper, which we see in the photo below.

We will need a rod (wooden skewers will do). large beads and paper napkins.

To out round napkins we get cones, we make a radial incision. We cut along the radius of the circle from the CENTRAL point to the edge.

Beads between the cones will not let them run into each other. And our Christmas tree will be airy.

You can make cone Christmas trees from spare pieces of wallpaper.

You can use sheets of colored office paper.

Idea #8

Crepe paper tree.

Here is another beautiful children's paper tree. Here we need a BASIS for a Christmas tree in the form of a high paper CONE. We cut out a semicircle from paper - and fold it into a bag of consu.

Crepe paper cut on long wide ribbons. Then along the paper tape we make incisions-fringe. Next, we wrap our paper conse with this fringed paper tape - starting from the bottom and gradually spiraling, turn by turn, moving towards the top. Each notched twist the petal into a curl.

Such a Christmas tree craft is suitable for school or the Skillful Hands circle in kindergarten.

Idea #9

Crepe paper tree.

And here is a convex Christmas tree from a paper cassette from eggs. Cut out the cells of the cassette holder in the fork of the triangle. We paint them in green color gouache. Spray with nail polish (so that the gouache does not stain your hands and the color becomes brighter). And on each bottom of the cassette cell we glue a circle of colored paper. We cut out the silhouettes of a star of different sizes from cardboard and form a puff star.

Such a children's craft is convenient for conducting classes in a school creativity circle.

Idea #10

Volumetric Christmas tree from the CONE

(6 ways to decorate)

And here is another Christmas tree made on the basis of a high cardboard cone. We buy whatman paper (a large sheet of paper) - cut out a semicircle - bend it into a cone from a semicircle.

Here the main monotony of labor is in cutting circles of many hundreds. And then there is a gradual pasting with these circles in the form of scales - starting from the lower rows of the cone and gradually moving up to the top of the Christmas tree-cone. Children who often toil about waiting new year holidays they will be happy to be distracted by such a New Year's children's tree craft. And this is to your advantage, no one will wander around the kitchen and prevent you from preparing the New Year's table.

Such a Christmas tree cone can be placed on a long stem. And put the rod on a plasticine pedestal. From plasticine we make a thick round cake. We bury the base of the rod in plasticine. We decorate the plasticine sole with cardboard and pieces of moss or other natural material(bark, peeled cone scales, etc.).

Pasting the Christmas tree-cone can be carried out loops from strips of paper. Or if you are too lazy to cut paper, you can buy a long roll of textile tape, cut it into segments, bend each segment into a loop and glue it on a cardboard cone - also in rows from bottom to top.

Can do from fabric (or from paper) triangular folds. Fold the square diagonally in half, and again in half. Layer the angles of the triangle on top of each other - so that the triangle curls up into a ladle. The barrel of the ladle will be glued to the cone-base of the Christmas tree.


As you understand, it is not necessary to use a fabric - you can take a regular colored paper, crumpled crepe paper or even newspaper (and then paint it with spray paint).

You can also use it to decorate the Christmas tree. paper cups for baking cupcakes. As it is done in the picture below. Such a children's craft will be a real New Year's entertainment for your children. Simple and fast - and very beautiful.

Idea #11

Christmas tree with paper straw decor.

And here is another Christmas tree based on a paper cone. Here, fine paper shavings are used as the material for gluing the cone. You can find these shavings in fragile goods shipping boxes. Or cut such straws with your own office paper scissors - make a voluminous pile of shavings and decorate the Christmas tree with ordinary pva glue.

We also glue cones on the cone and Christmas balls- put them on hot glue from a glue gun(sold in the construction departments of the store - it costs $ 5, the glue for it is very cheap in the form of rods).

The Christmas tree can be placed on a pedestal made of round log cuts. And crowned with a star. It is also not necessary to buy it - you can make such a star with your own hands from ordinary newsprint. How such a star is made, I told in the article

This is good too an option for a simple children's craft for the New Year. Because it's simple, easy and fast. Ideal for a 20-minute lesson in the Skillful Hands circle. The main thing is to prepare cones, straws and decorative material in advance.

Idea #12

Christmas tree

from paper rolls.

Here is the tree from paper rolls. From ordinary sheets of paper (even from office drafts), we roll rolls, fasten them to a stapler or glue (so that they do not unfold).

In the photo below, we see that an ordinary glass goblet (or a vase for jam) was used as a stand for such a voluminous rolled Christmas tree.

According to this principle, you can make a bright Christmas tree if the rolls are twisted from colored table napkins.

You can put a rolled Christmas tree on a long stick-leg and stick it into a flower pot with earth.

Here below classic way creating such a Christmas tree from paper rolls-bags.

And here is a method where the bags are not glued to the base cone, but simply laid in radially circular rows.

Such paper bags can create a Christmas tree on any plane - on the wall or on the door to the office. A quick and easy way to do beautiful decoration office on New Year. Even More Ideas New Year's decor for classrooms and office space I have collected in a special article


Idea #13

Christmas tree in the technique of QVILLING.

(4 ways from flat to voluminous)

And here are paper Christmas trees made using the QVILLING technique. They can be flat as in the photo below.

It's simple.

STEP1 - paper is cut into strips.

STEP 2 - Each strip is twisted around a quilling rod (or a simple toothpick).

STEP 3 - The twist fits into the circle-hole of the stencil - and inside this round frame of the hole we relax the twist (so that it unfolds slightly, but within the specified size).

STEP 4 - Next, we carefully remove the twist from the stencil and glue its tail (so that the twist does not unwind further, but retains the size specified by the stencil. This way we get round twists of the same size.

STEP 5 - Then we take a round twist and with our fingers we set the FORM of the twist - it can be TEAR-SHAPED (as in the photo with the Christmas tree below). And from such twists we glue our Christmas tree out of paper.

Such children's crafts can be offered in the classroom in the circle of school creativity. It can be done together with grandmothers and children for a competition in kindergarten.

The corners of the droplets can be slightly bent up (as in the photo of the Christmas tree below).

You can make Christmas trees using the quilling technique for any fantasy shape.

DOUBLE-LAYER Christmas tree in quilling technique.

But a Christmas tree made of paper in the same technique - where the quilling modules are not glued to a sheet of paper, but to themselves - that is, they stick together side by side. And such gluing of paper strands is stacked in two layers


Paper quilling tree - ON THE ROD.

Quilling twists can be placed on the rod. From cardboard we make a rod on the edges of which we will glue the twists. Here we see a striped Christmas tree, where the twist modules are attached to a central cardboard rod.

But the Christmas tree where the central rod made of cardboard has a hexagonal section - that is, this rod has 6 sides and 6 edges. On these flat sides we attach the base of the paper droplets. Please note that here the droplets are of different sizes - at the bottom there are large twists (made according to a large stencil-hole), and at the top there are smaller ones. We attach a rhinestone to the tip of each droplet.

You can glue the twist droplets with the sides down, as is done on the Christmas tree from the picture below.

A quilling twist can be placed around a round rod - and put the modules in a horizontal plane (as in the photo of the quilling paper Christmas tree below).

Fastening modules to a round rod will serve another flat piece of paper the same color. First wrap the paper around the rod on glue- we leave the tails sticking out on both sides of the rod - and strips between these ponytails we put our finished twist, and hug it, wrap it around with tails - gluing them to the twist. In order for such fasteners to hold better – we repeat it with another strip of paper (and, if necessary, with another strip) - so our twist will ideally keep its horizontal plane.

You can make a simple quilling herringbone from weak looped and curlicue twists from cardboard or thick non-quilling paper (as is done in the photo below).

Paper quilling tree - ON THE BASIS OF A CONE.

You can glue the twist modules not on the rod, but on the classic cone base.

The cone can be round(as in the photo above). Or the cone may have rectangular section- that is, to have ribs and flat sides (as in the photo below). On such planes cone-pyramid It is convenient to apply any quilling patterns. And we will get a patterned 3d Christmas tree.

You can connect children to such a craft. They will happily wind up the modules. And then they will help you glue the pyramid-tree with them. A good children's Christmas craft.

Idea #14

Christmas tree craft from bushings

from toilet paper

And here is another idea for a Christmas tree made of paper. Here, rolls of cardboard and paper of different diameters are taken as material. You can use rolls of scotch tape and masking tape, supplement them with toilet paper cardboard sleeves (shortening them to the height of scotch rolls), you can use narrow tubes from office fax paper (also cut into short lengths). Screw homemade rolls of cardboard.

And from such a prefabricated material, fold-glue a Christmas tree. Rolls can be glued to each other with a glue gun, or with double-sided tape. simple craft in which the children will be happy to participate.

Only toilet paper rolls of the same size can be used. And fold them into a Christmas tree in the form of a pyramid. Pre-paint the rolls green, dry, glue. So that the gouache paint does not stick to your hands and does not dye clothes, the dyed and dried rolls need to be sprayed with hairspray - the paint will fix and the color will become brighter.

Inside each roll we put a Christmas ball (you can just put it or you can hang it by a hole in the roll) - instead of a ball put a large candy in a shiny wrapper. You can decorate the side of such a Christmas tree made of paper rudons with New Year's glass beads.

If you start collecting rolls in advance and involve all the staff of your company, then you can make a very tall large Christmas tree to decorate the office.

And here is another way to design a Christmas tree from paper rolls. There is a more economical consumption of material, since the herringbone empty inside. Just made from rolls rings– (rolls just stick together in a round dance with their sides. And then such round dance rings from rolls are placed on top of each other and Christmas tree balls are put into their sockets. Pre-paint the rolls in the desired color.

These are the ideas for a do-it-yourself paper Christmas tree I have collected today in this article. Now you can choose simple and beautiful way make a tree for yourself. Good luck with your New Year's creativity and beautiful Christmas trees. May everything work out now and in your New Year.
