2. Now carefully fold the strips - wide at the bottom, medium - in the middle, narrow - at the top.
3. We combine the centers of the strips and clamp them with a paper clip.
4. We wrap the narrowest strip at the place of compression and make a bow so that the knot is at the bottom of the wide strip.

Good afternoon. Today we will do crafts on New Year from paper and cardboard with their own hands. I collected the most accessible and easy-to-use crafts for children and adults. You can find here ideas for kindergarten activities for the new year (applications and paper crafts). Also here you will get ideas for home decor for the new year from paper and cardboard.

Let's start doing New Year's fairy tale with our own hands, we will turn paper into a smart New Year for our family. Let's apply our good mood And skillful hands and spin a round dance of New Year's crafts.

Candlestick for the New Year

(from colored paper and white cardboard).

These cute cardboard snowman candlesticks can decorate your New Year's interior.

Each paper snowman unfolds like a regular postcard. And it can be placed vertically on the edge (like a postcard). Punctured holes in cardboard allow you to use this paper craft for the New Year as a festive candlestick. Let me tell you in detail, step by step, how to make such a quick and simple craft with your own hands.

How to make this New Year paper candlestick craft.

Step 1 - on plain paper (draft), print or draw any graphic pattern (the one you want to pierce on the snowman's abdomen)

Step 2 - From thick white cardboard (preferably glossy, double-sided), cut out the silhouette of the snowman's body. This will be a silhouette in the form of a hill with rounded edges, growing from left to right (as in the photo above).

Step 3 - we apply our draft with a pattern to this silhouette and fasten it with paper clips. I put it on the table terry towel in 2-3 additions. On a towel we put a cardboard with a draft, a patterned draft side up. We pierce the drawing on the draft with a needle. So that the needle passes through the draft, through the cardboard silhouette of the snowman's body lying under it, and sticks into the towel. We cut off the whole drawing in all places.

Step 4 - from the same cardboard we cut out the oval hands of a snowman and a round head. Cut out a nose, a cap, eyes, and a mouth from colored paper. We paint the cap with colored felt-tip pens or markers. We assemble the craft entirely from these paper parts. And we get beautiful gift for the New Year from paper, made by hand

And from the remnants of white cardboard, you can make just such a clamshell craft for the New Year. From colored paper we make candle flames and green holly branches with red berries.

It is also very beautiful to make Puff crafts in the form of houses and Christmas trees from white thick paper for the new year. Placed on the ribs of the folds, they will be held vertically straight - between the rows of houses you can decompose Christmas garland and turn it on - the lights of the garland will illuminate the windows, draw out the silhouettes.

Snowman for the New Year

from paper.

From white paper rounds you can make funny puffy SNESHARIKOV. Decorate them with hats of different styles, tie them with colored satin ribbons(like scarves). Glue the paws and noses and draw a dotted smile and eyes with a black marker.

This craft is perfect for kids. middle group in kindergarten. Only the ribbons will need help to tie.

You can make a snowman from three cardboard circles different sizes. Between the layers of the rounds, lay a three-dimensional gasket (a thick piece of cardboard, a folding paper spring, thick Velcro tape, etc.). So the snowman will be voluminous puff. We attach paper paws to the first lower layer, put a scarf on the second round, and a nose, eyes, and a hat on the upper round. This paper craft for the New Year is suitable for children. senior group kindergarten.

Here is a craft idea for the little ones. On a sheet of blue cardboard we attach a white snowdrift at the bottom. We stick a leaflet with a calendar print on it (it can be printed from the Internet and photocopied according to the number of children in the group).

It remains for children to glue round snowman muzzles, round pens on top of the calendar sheet. Then cover your head with a hat, add eyes, nose - draw a smile later with a marker. Decorate the blue background of crafts with paper snowflakes.

And from large sheets of paper (A2 format) you can make a beautiful craft to the window. Such a snowman can decorate the window frames in your child's nursery. And kindergarten workers can turn the group windows into a whole series of funny adventures of the snowman Vasya- here he is sweeping snowflakes with a broom, here he is showing an acrobatic number, here he is with birds, here he is juggling snowballs, here he is sleeping under the tree. The poses are easy to fold and change, just turn the body of the leg and head - and now the snowman himself has turned, rolled over - oh yes, Vasya!

And since we started making crafts for the New Year from white paper, let's continue. And let's see what else can be done from an inexpensive landscape or office paper.

Craft - a wreath for the NEW YEAR

(white paper + pizza box).

Here's what beautiful work can please your children this New Year. From plain white paper and an old cardboard box, you can make a New Year's miracle. Wreath with white lace New Year's silhouettes. All details are cut out separately - and from the side it seems that this is a single large paper cut-out.

How to make the basis for a New Year's wreath.

We take a box from a large pizza. We put on it the largest lid from the pan (or a round dish). Outline with a pencil. We get the contours of the outer ring. We put a smaller plate in the center, circle it with a pencil - we get the contours of the inner ring, that is, a hole. Cut out.

Note - to get an even-sided ring for a wreath, you need to put a small plate (for a hole) exactly in the center - so that the right and left and above and below the plate have the same distance to the edge of the ring.

From ordinary white office paper we cut out the details-symbols of the New Year:

• 3 large snowflakes
• 8 silhouettes of Christmas trees
• 4 house silhouettes
• 1 white ring (2 halves of the ring are possible - from two sheets of paper)

This white ring will lie on top of our round dance of houses of Christmas trees and snowflakes. AND by inner diameter this white paper ring match the inner circle of our cardboard base wreath(which we cut out of a pizza box).

The process of assembling the New Year's crafts.

On our cardboard gray ring we paste in a circle - in any order - all the Christmas trees, houses, snowflakes. We make a round dance of silhouettes - not bringing them much closer to the inner edge of the wreath (since there they will close too much with a white paper ring). The thickness of the ring should not greatly overlap the New Year's paper silhouettes - but only cover their lower part.

We glued the silhouettes in a round dance and then put a white paper ring on top of them - also on glue. It is better to work with a glue stick - it is drier and the cardboard does not warp from moisture and the paper does not wrinkle from dampness.

And here's a snowflake template to help you , which is perfect for this paper craft for the New Year. To reduce the size of the template, press and hold the ctrl button and at the same time turn the mouse wheel - towards you (or away from you) to change the size. Then put a sheet of paper on the monitor screen and circle the contour of the snowflake glowing through the paper.

And here are some more ideas for silhouette round appliqués made of paper for do-it-yourself decorations for the New Year.

Cut out a ring from black cardboard. At the bottom we glue a semicircular white snowdrift. - we attach white silhouettes of Christmas trees to it. With a hole punch in the form of snowflakes or stars, we make a small scattering of stars and stick them on a black ring. Q-tip and with white gouache we put small white dots on a black background.

Or we cut out the silhouette layers from white paper (a number of houses), and red paper (Santa Claus's sleigh and horse). Fold the layers within the round silhouette.

carved crafts

from paper for the New Year.

If the paper cuts are bent from their incised place, then we will get the effect of a voluminous paper craft. Below we see a paper Christmas tree made using this technique. A sheet of paper was folded in half - along the axial vertical line. And they made oblique cuts - 2 small ones at the top, then two more larger ones below, two more more, and so on. Then they unfolded the paper and folded each incised section down - it turned out a carved Christmas tree made of paper for the New Year (left photo below).

You can only make small CORNER cuts with a paper knife - and bend these corners, getting the shape of triangular teeth.

In the same technique, you can make three-dimensional. In the same technique, you can make three-dimensional 3D crafts. This is how it's made Christmas trees for the New Year from paper or white cardboard.

We take a flat triangular piece of cardboard - with a knife or blade we make it on it vertical notches(without touching the edges of the triangle with scissors). And then we bend these cuts - one forward, the other back, the third forward, the fourth back and so on - with alternation. Before starting to bend, we need to fold our triangle in half along the central vertical line - then all these bends will have an even central edge - both in front and behind.

If the cut lines are not straight-horizontal (as in the left photo), but wavy or oblique as on other Christmas trees with a photo, then we will get interesting silhouette volumetric crafts of Christmas trees made of paper.

And also a flat paper part can be turned into a voluminous convex Christmas tree (3D craft) in this way (as in the photo below).

We cut the usual flat cardboard round in a spiral - (we draw a snail on it, and make a cut along the line with scissors). And then we raise the middle of this snail up and teach a spiral-spring in the shape of a Christmas tree.

So that the Christmas tree does not fold back, it can be supplemented with a ROD - an axis holder, so to speak (as it is done in the right photo below). There, a wooden stick on top holds the center of the spiral (on glue), and at the bottom the stick is based on a piece of plasticine or another pedestal.

And pay attention - that the edges of the Christmas tree from the photo are curly to the right (with a lace border). This is achieved if the spiral snail is drawn not with straight lines, but with wavy ones, and cut accordingly along these lines.

And we also have a very large and detailed article on our website. There you will find a lot of ideas for creating paper Christmas trees for the New Year.

And in this article I will give the idea of ​​​​a very simple Christmas tree made of paper discs. Cut paper circles - 2 pieces of each size. Fold each paper circle in half. We put halves of the same size into each other - a corner in the shape of the roof of a house. It turns out 5 corners of different sizes. And from them we begin to collect our paper Christmas tree - first we paste the TOP PAIR of the smallest on the sheet, then inside it - we put a little more, then even more and so on until we collect the Christmas tree - a great idea for the New Year from white paper, which is always in excess.

Crafts for the New Year

FROM STRIPS OF PAPER.

And here are a couple of ideas for you on how you can make original Christmas wreaths with your own and children's hands from paper cut into short strips.

In the first master class, we cut green (double-sided in color) paper into strips 10 cm long. Fold each strip into a bell jar. From the pizza box, cut out the ring-base in the shape of a donut. And on this base we glue our pots of paper strips - we glue them with a serrated "scallop" up (as shown in the photo below).

And here is another idea for the New Year from paper - also from stripes and also in the form of a wreath craft. You can cut each strip on both sides into 2 cloves (like a flag). And just glue them on the base ring for the wreath. We glue them - wrapping around the ring and glue the two sides of the flag together. We decorate a paper wreath with sparkles with fluffy balls,

From two long strips of paper, you can roll up a SPRING - glue a bright light from colored yellow and red paper to it - and you get a candle.

Craft-CARD

for the New Year from paper.

For this folding bed craft in the form of Santa Claus, you need bilateral red paper - and a sheet of white or blue cardboard.

• Glue a red silhouette onto a rectangular sheet of paper so that its HANDS extend wide open beyond the edges of the blue cardboard sheet.
• Then it remains on this red silhouette of Santa Claus to stick a white silhouette of a beard, with a pompom and in the middle of the beard, stick a pink face detail.
• With a black marker draw eyes, buttons, pockets. Draw a nose with a red marker. And then draw a line on which the children will glue the chain of flags.

So I drew the outlines of all the details of this New Year's paper craft. You can outline the details of Santa Claus by placing a sheet of paper directly on the glowing monitor of your computer. To enlarge or reduce an image– roll the mouse wheel while holding down the CTRL button on your keyboard.

You will find even more ideas for creating Santa Claus paper crafts and more in our special article dedicated only to this character beloved by all children.

Paper accordion crafts

for the new year.

An ordinary paper fan that children love to fold in hot weather can warm you with a flame of warm ideas on cold New Year's days.

You can make such a multi-tiered Christmas tree out of paper for the New Year. In it, each tier-floor is a long wide strip of paper folded into a small accordion. Each harmonica is glued overlapping each other - starting from the bottom, and slowly moving to the top.

And if such a strip is twisted in a circle, we get the shape of a corrugated pancake. Different sizes of such corrugated rounds will give us a pyramid in the form of an elegant Christmas tree made of paper. For the new year, you can put a real masterpiece made by yourself in the center of the table. Tiers of colored paper can be sprinkled with hairspray and quickly sprinkled with fine nail glitter.

Such a Christmas tree made of paper will look elegant and beautiful if as paper material take the usual gift wrapping - it will already have a beautiful color pattern - for example, in cheerful polka dots, as in the photo below.

And from such round accordion fans you can make beautiful New Year's crafts in the form of a snowman or decorative paper snowflake pendant.

We make a round fan out of musical paper (before this we artificially age the paper, yellow tea or grease it with a brush dipped in coffee, dry it, smooth it with an iron). In the center of the round fan on hot glue from a gun klim shop plastic snowflake. And from the old New Year's card cut out a round element of the picture and paste it in the center - it turns out a paper snowflake craft for the New Year.

Your round fan does not need to be in the shape of an EVEN CIRCLE. You can give the fan a patterned shape - jagged edges, openwork holes (as in the photo with the snowflake craft below).

Below I found a diagram that shows how to create such a patterned round fan in stages. Please note that the edge cloves are obtained from the fact that the fan, still folded, from one end is CUT OFF.

Holes are obtained from triangular slots in the side of the fan. And so that the fan itself can easily be assembled into a circle, we see a round hole punctured with a needle - from the opposite end of the fan - in this place all the blades are threaded through on a needle and thread - and thanks to this, the fan is pulled together tightly in its center and fixes this screed with a knot of the ends of the thread.

You can of course do and without thread with a needle- fold a round fan from several coal fans. Here is a photo diagram below showing how it is done by hand.

The shape of the teeth of the fan gives interesting shapes to such paper snowflakes. In the photo instructions below, we see different variations of such paper crafts for the New Year. Each new pattern of cuts and cuts gives us an interesting new snowflake when unfolded.

Angels for the New Year

From paper and cardboard.

Using the fan fold technique, you can make an angel craft from white office paper. First, fold a round fan out of white paper (just like we made it for a tiered Christmas tree above - also with the assembly of the middle on a thread). Then, on this fan circle, outline the outlines of an angel (head, wings, dress) on it and cut it off along the drawn line. You get a paper angel craft for the New Year as in the photo below.

And for children at school, you can do these simple crafts angels from a narrow paper cone. The wings are a semicircle with two notches in the middle - the top of the cone is threaded through them (see photo below).

Then a face is glued to the top of the cone (a semicircle made of cardboard). Then we make hair - we bend the rectangle of paper - into two unequal parts - a short fold for the bangs, a long one for the back of the hair. We cut each part into a fringe.

You can make such a solid angel from thick paper with a foil side or from shiny cardboard for the New Year. For this craft, we make only one flat blank (as in the photo below). We make 2 cuts with scissors - then we wind the two sides of this workpiece back, dock and put the cuts on each other. It turns out voluminous New Year's craft Angel (as in the photo below).

But a paper angel - as a window sticker for the New Year. Below I give a diagram for carving such an angel onto a window. You can translate a picture with a pencil directly from the laptop screen by placing a sheet of paper directly on the monitor screen. If you want to enlarge or reduce the drawing diagram, you just need to rotate the mouse wheel while holding down the Ctrl button on your keyboard.

If you have lace paper napkins, you can make from this openwork paper Here is such an elegant angel for the New Year. They can decorate a postcard, front door, or use as a toy on Christmas tree.

And even more ideas for crafts in the form of angels you will find in our special article.

Paper crafts for the New Year,

cut into strips.

And here is a bag of ideas for crafts for the New Year from paper strips. From colored paper (double-sided coloring), cut out strips of the same width. And by gluing them in a given position of the folds, we get curly-shaped frames - in the form of a snowman's hat, in the form of his body, the head of his hands. By connecting the strip frame parts with each other, we get a solid colored paper craft for the New Year.

For crafts from thin frame parts, it is better to use strips of paper glued to each other (3-4 pieces each, or cardboard (two-color) - this way we get a dense craft that will not deform under the weight of itself.

For the same technique (paper strips), you can use not only colored paper as an ornamental material, but also any other. Ordinary strips of paper can be cut out of a magazine, gift wrapping - as was done in the example of a snowflake scoundrel in the photo below.

After gluing the craft, the end edge of the cut is flat, you can first dip it in glue, and then in nail glitter.

It is not necessary to be a quilling master to make an elegant paper snowflake. It is enough just to cut strips of paper of the same length, then glue the loops out of them (they will also turn out to be the same size). And then fold these loops in a circle (gluing to the center) - and we get a round base for a snowflake (as in the photo below). We decorate the glued loops in the center with cardboard snowflakes (or plastic ones purchased at the store), then with roundels and small paper fans.

You can come up with a different pattern of paper loops of different sizes - and get new results. For example, you can hang such a paper star for the New Year as a Christmas tree toy.
