Do you love needlework? Then you will love making DIY Christmas decorations! This is a pleasant and exciting activity for the whole family that will not leave anyone indifferent - you will spend several evenings with pleasure making toys for the Christmas tree with your own hands.

What do you need to make DIY Christmas decorations? You can use almost anything that comes your way. If you want, you can buy special consumables (sold in art stores), or you can use what is in any home. So what to prepare:

• plain paper (suitable for making patterns);
• pencils and markers;
• ordinary, white and colored cardboard (velvet can be used);
• sharp scissors and a dummy knife;
• glue (PVA or glue gun with rods);
• threads and needles;
• yarn of different shades;
• various decorative materials - it can be sparkles, sequins, confetti, multi-colored foil, stickers and much more.

This is a basic set, but in order to make a specific Christmas tree toy, something else may be required.

Simple crafts from improvised materials

Of course, you have probably seen how they are made from thread and glue. christmas balls with your own hands, but why not expand the range? We make different Christmas decorations with your own hands.

From yarn

This is a simple and at the same time spectacular Christmas decoration that can decorate any Christmas tree.

For manufacturing you will need:

• yarn;
• tailor's pins;
• plate or bowl;
• porous material (for example, a disposable tray);
• cutting paper;
• marker.

The threads need to be soaked in glue - the glue should soak the yarn well, it is thanks to it that the decoration will keep its shape. While the threads absorb the glue, you need to make a template for your toy - draw on paper what you want. It can be DIY Christmas balls, outlandish birds or neat little houses. You can also try to make a snowman, a couple of small Christmas trees and a star.

The template needs to be attached with pins (or ordinary toothpicks) to the porous material, and lay out the pattern you need on top - first the outline is laid out, then the interior decor. Do not cross the threads too often, the toy should be fairly flat. After you are done, dry the product and remove it from the pins, and tie a loop in the eye. If desired, you can decorate with sparkles or rain.

From wire

How to make Christmas toys with your own hands in just a couple of minutes? Use wire!

To make toys you will need:

• two types of wire - thick and thin (thin can be replaced with bright threads, for example, floss. Pure white strong threads look very nice);
• beads, beads;
• colored tape;
• pliers.

In order to make figurines or balls for the Christmas tree, cut a few pieces from thick wire and give them the shape that your Christmas decoration will have. In our case, this is a star, but you can use any geometric figures and simple silhouettes.

The ends of the thick wire must be twisted. You need to string beads and beads mixed on a thin wire, tie the end of a thin wire to a future Christmas tree decoration, and wrap it randomly.

When the toy is evenly wrapped, you need to wrap the free tail of the wire around the toy, and tie a ribbon in the shape of a bow - your toy is ready.

Another original idea:

Ribbon and beads

Who said that do-it-yourself New Year's toys must be done for a long time and painstakingly? Not at all. Literally in five minutes you can, which will decorate both the New Year's tree and the interior.

You will need:

• beads;
• narrow tape;
• yellow, gold or silver cardboard;
• glue "Second";
• needle with thread.

We fold the ribbon with an accordion and string it on a thread, after each loop of the ribbon you need to string a bead. The more “tiers”, the smaller they are - you see, the Christmas tree is already starting to turn out. When the ribbon ends, the thread must be tied in a knot, and a small star should be cut out of the cardboard. Next, you need to glue your Christmas tree to the star, and make a loop on top so that the decoration can be easily hung.

The interior decor made in this way looks very attractive.

From cardboard - in a couple of minutes

Some Christmas toys made of paper or cardboard take a lot of time to make, but not in this case - here you really need a couple of minutes to make an elegant hand-made Christmas decoration.

So, you will need:

• ordinary cardboard;
• some twine or thick yarn;
• glue;
• paints and brushes;
• napkin or cloth;
• varied decor.

Make two figurines out of cardboard, glue them together, laying a thread with a loop between them - the blank for the toy is ready.

We wrap the tree in different directions with a free tail of twine. After some pattern of threads appears on the Christmas tree, you can start gluing it with a napkin. You can tear the napkin into pieces, coat the Christmas tree well with glue, and glue it tightly with a napkin. This will give a nice texture to the future toy.

After the toy has dried, you can start painting - paint the Christmas tree green.

After the paint layer dries, shade the texture of the toy with a dry hard brush and white paint, and then decorate as you like.

From bright patches

Here you will need sewing machine, but with a special desire, you can cope without it. it The best way make Christmas toys from cotton wool and fabric - just choose a fabric with a Christmas ornament, or use the one that is at hand.

Prepare a few paper patterns- for example, deer, stars, gingerbread men, bear cubs, letters and hearts. Cut the blanks out of the fabric with your own hands, sew them in pairs, leaving a small gap (for stuffing), and through this small hole, tightly stuff the toys with cotton wool or padding polyester. It is most convenient to fill with a pencil.

Patterns can be downloaded here:

By the way, do not forget - we sew on a typewriter from the inside, but if you decide to make toys made of dense fabric with the kids, then it is better to sew them with a decorative seam over the edge - a do-it-yourself toy will look simply charming and suitable even for a home Christmas tree, even for a kindergarten - usually for kindergarten trees, children make decorations themselves.

From twine and cardboard

Christmas toys from paper and cardboard will be much more interesting if you add a couple more to them simple materials. To make such a toy, you will need ordinary cardboard, simple paper or natural twine, a little felt or any other fabric, as well as plain paper, a pencil and a ruler, a drop of glue.

Star template can be downloaded here (click on the picture, it will enlarge):

First, make a pattern on plain paper, and then transfer it to cardboard. Do not forget that the star must be double. Do not make the star too thin, it is better to make it from a centimeter or more. The tail of the twine is glued to the cardboard, then you need to gradually wrap the entire workpiece.

Lay the thread as tightly as possible so that there are no gaps. In order to decorate the star, make a couple of leaves and berries out of fabric and decorate one of the rays. Your decoration is ready.

From yarn and cardboard

Do you want to make original and at the same time charming Christmas decorations with your own hands? Then it's time to make small gift hats with your own hands from improvised materials. This is a wonderful Christmas gift that looks cute and will keep you warm all winter!

To make Christmas tree decorations in the form of hats, you will need:

• a couple of bushings from toilet paper(you can just glue cardboard rings);
• remnants of colored yarn;
• beads and sequins for decoration.

From cardboard, you need to glue rings about 1.5-2 cm wide. If you use a toilet paper sleeve as a base, cut it into several segments of approximately the same width.

The threads need to be cut into segments of approximately 20-22 centimeters. We fold each piece in half, draw the loop through the cardboard ring, and stretch the free edges of the threads through the loop. It is necessary that the thread is firmly fixed on the cardboard base. So you need to repeat until the cardboard base is hidden under the threads.

All thread tails need to be pulled through the ring so that our hat has a “lapel”.

And now we drag the free ponytails tightly with a thread and cut them in the shape of a pompom - the hat is ready! It remains only to make a loop and decorate your Christmas tree toy with sequins and sparkles.

From beads

Making a New Year's toy in the style of minimalism is easy and simple - you will need wire, beads and beads, a ribbon and a coin (you can replace it with a small candy, but it looks much more spectacular with a coin). Try to make this Christmas tree toy with your own hands, a very simple master class.

Make a loop on the wire and string green beads mixed with large beads on it - they will play the role of Christmas balls on our Christmas tree. After the wire is filled, give it the shape of a Christmas tree, folding in a spiral.

Once your tree is in shape, fold the loose end into a loop.

We cut off a piece of tape, form a loop for hanging from it and stretch it through the Christmas tree, and decorate the free tail with a coin (the easiest way is to stick it on double-sided tape). We tie a decorative bow on the loop for hanging - your decor is ready!

Christmas balls

How to make a Christmas ball of thread? As easy as shelling pears, watch our master class about spectacular lace balls on the Christmas tree.

Would need:

• several balloons;
• cotton threads;
• PVA, water and sugar;
• scissors;
• polymer glue;
• spray paint;
• decor.

First you need to inflate the balloon - not completely, but according to the size of the future decoration. Mix two tablespoons of water, two teaspoons of sugar and PVA glue (50 ml), and soak the thread in this mixture so that the thread is saturated. Then you need to wrap the ball with a thread randomly. The balls need to be dried for several hours. After the glue is completely dry, you need to blow off the ball and take it out, and gently paint the thread ball with spray paint and decorate with sequins and sparkles.

Do-it-yourself filament Christmas balls will turn out to be very, very spectacular if you make them in different tones - for example, red, silver and gold. Try to make your own Christmas balls in different technique- you can sew or knit balls, make them from cotton wool with your own hands or, for example, sew them from felt - there are never too many such toys.

Make the same decorative elements- for example, holly branches (by the way, did you know that this is a symbol of joy and Christmas reconciliation?). Berries need to be glued to the leaf with glue, and then make a decorative knot - this will add volume to the berries.

We sew each blank in pairs. By the way, it is best to sew with contrasting threads, it will be fun and elegant. And how to make Christmas decorations voluminous?

Simple, interesting and fun to make crafts from cones. This is because the most ordinary cone can turn into any toy, animal, bird, funny object. By attaching various parts to the cone, as well as fastening the cones together, you can create a whole collection of crafts, like toys, souvenirs and quite useful items.

To create a cone, draw a circle with a compass and divide it into 4 parts. Then all these sectors are cut, and a cone is rolled up from the resulting quarters. Such a cone will be narrow, but if you cut off more than a quarter of a circle, the cone itself will turn out wider.
