New Year is a wonderful holiday when you want to decorate your home and Christmas tree with the most original, unusual decorations. For an original Christmas tree decoration, making crafts from candy wrappers with your own hands is not difficult. Let's consider several original New Year's decorations - an angel, garlands, a star, a snowflake, a Christmas tree.

Angel

To make an angel you will need:

  • 2 candy wrappers,
  • bead or food foil,
  • threads,
  • stapler,
  • thin wire.

Performance:

  1. Take 2 candy wrappers. We fold each candy wrapper like an accordion, so that one is large - this is the body of the angel, the other is smaller - the wings. If the candy wrappers are rectangular, then we make one accordion along the length and the other along the width of the candy wrapper;
  2. We fold the prepared accordions in the center of each, edges down. We tie it with thread;
  3. We glue the edges of the bottom wrapper with glue or fasten it with a stapler on the back side of the wrapper and straighten it;
  4. We apply glue to the edges of the second candy wrapper, glue it to the body, straighten it - these are the wings of a Christmas angel;
  5. Roll a small ball out of foil - this is the head of an angel, or take a bead. Sew a bead or ball of foil to the body with thread or glue it with glue;
  6. We make a halo for the angel from wire, thread the lower part of the wire into a bead, and make a small knot at the bottom so that the halo does not fall off;
  7. In order to hang the angel on the Christmas tree, glue a thread to the back or glue a piece of New Year's rain. Angel is ready.

You can also make a garland from the angels by connecting each subsequent angel by the wing and body.

Garland

Masters of crafts made from candy wrappers with their own hands make a lot of options, limited only by the imagination of the performer. Let's look at 4 options for DIY candy wrapper garlands. The sequence of actions is maintained when creating any type of garlands. To create you will need: candy wrappers, a needle and thread.

Expert advice: It is better to choose a harsh or simple thread for the garland, fold it 2-4 times. A garland 1.5m - 2m long will look more beautiful.

1 type. Garland “Accordion”:

  1. We select candy wrappers and fold each one individually like an accordion;
  2. We put 5 candy wrappers together, find the middle of the accordion and sew one loop with a needle and thread;

  3. At the beginning of the garland, leave a loop, which will be needed to secure the garland to the tree;
  4. Step back 1 cm from the candy wrappers and tie a loop. This will make it possible to fix the candy wrappers in this gap so that they do not move along the entire thread;
  5. We repeat the steps again. We string 5 candy wrappers with an accordion and secure with a loop;
  6. And so the actions are performed along the entire length of the garland;
  7. Leave a loop at the end of the garland to secure the garland to the tree.

2nd view. Garland “Tube”:

Creating a piece of candy wrappers with your own hands in the form of a garland of tubes is not at all difficult. The creation process is repeated, as with the accordion garland. Only instead of an accordion, tubes of candy wrappers are twisted.

The tubes are lightly pressed in the middle to make a loop. Once the loop is made, the tubes are straightened so as not to lose their shape. The garland turns out voluminous and very beautiful.

The next type of candy wrapper garland is the easiest to make.

3rd view. Simple garland:

  1. The candy wrapper is folded into 4 equal parts and cut. They do this with all candy wrappers, cutting them into 4 equal parts;
  2. Collect 10 pieces and string tightly on a needle and thread;
  3. Every 3 cm of the garlands make a small loop to reduce the mobility of the candy wrappers along the length of the thread;

Such a garland can be made by cutting out any identical geometric shapes from candy wrappers - circles, stars, hearts and others.

4th view. Garland with balls:

  1. Roll small balls from food foil or chocolate;
  2. Fold the candy wrappers into an accordion shape;
  3. Prepare a thread and a needle;
  4. String the ball one by one, piercing it in the middle, then an accordion-shaped candy wrapper (in the middle or on one edge);
  5. We string until the thread runs out.

Advice from craftsmen: The garland will turn out lush and neat if you string it in the middle of an accordion

Star

A star from candy wrappers can be made in two versions. One simple 8-pointed, the second 16-pointed asterisk. For a 16-pointed one, you will need 16 candy wrappers, scissors, a cardboard circle or a laser disc.

Performance:

  1. Fold the candy wrappers diagonally, cut off the extra piece. If you now unscrew the corner, you will get a square wrapper;
  2. Fold (inside the wrapper) diagonally, first on one side, then on the other. On each side we smooth it well with a fingernail so that bends are formed, at the intersection of which the middle (the center of the wrapper) will be visible;
  3. Expand the diagonal. We fold 4 corners to the center of the square in turn. The result will be a smaller square;
  4. Fold it diagonally;
  5. Fold the entire figure in half on the side of the large triangle. The result is a right triangle with a tongue;
  6. We carry out the same actions with the rest of the candy wrappers;
  7. When all the candy wrappers are folded into separate rays of the star, they need to be glued with a tongue into a right triangle.

For the 16-pointed star, the process of creating the rays is the same, but in the end one star is glued on one side to the cardboard or laser disk, the second on the other side.

Expert advice: For star-shaped crafts, it is better to choose paper-based candy wrappers; they are easier to fold and glue.

Snowflake

It’s very easy to make a snowflake using candy wrappers. Do it yourself or involve children, friends, and loved ones in such an interesting activity. The result is bright and unusual snowflakes. The easiest option is to cut out snowflakes from candy wrappers according to a template, but it will not turn out voluminous. For a three-dimensional craft in the shape of a snowflake you will need 3 candy wrappers, a stapler and thread.

Performance:

  1. Fold the candy wrappers diagonally, cut off the excess so that you get square candy wrappers;
  2. Starting from one corner to the opposite, fold the candy wrapper like an accordion; do the same with the rest of the candy wrappers;
  3. Connect all 3 candy wrappers in the middle and tie with thread;
  4. Fasten the edges of the candy wrappers together with a stapler;
  5. Straighten the snowflake a little and glue a thread to hang the snowflake on the Christmas tree.

A beautiful and fluffy snowflake can also be made from candy wrappers twisted into a tube.

It will require 5 candy wrappers:

  1. Twist all the candy wrappers into a tube;
  2. Gather everything together and press a little in the middle, tie tightly with a thread;
  3. Carefully, without unrolling, spread the edges of the tubes around the entire circle of snowflakes.

Tip: On accordion snowflakes you need to make small cuts or cutouts.

You will get an openwork snowflake. To decorate it, glue beads, sequins and New Year's tinsel on top of the snowflakes.

Herringbone

The New Year tree is made not only from sweets, but also from candy wrappers.

Ideas for interior decoration can include a vase, basket, bag, box, and much more. Let's look at some ideas.

Christmas decorations

If you plan to make a product for the first time, then it is advisable to choose a lightweight product. For example, a Christmas tree. Just the thing for decorating a room before the New Year.

Making it is extremely simple and will take about half an hour. To work, you need wrappers of as many different colors as possible, adhesive tape, regular and thermoplastic glue, a needle, thread, and scissors.

The ball acts as a toy. Creation:

  1. We fold the candy wrappers along the width like an accordion;
  2. We pierce them with a needle and string them on a thread;
  3. When you receive a fluffy ball, stretch the thread and fasten it around the final wrapper, tie it;

Vase

Wrappers are suitable for making a unique vase. We will need: candy wrappers, scissors, a needle and thread, a round box and hot glue. I will describe the work step by step:

  1. Fold the wrapper in half three times, right side down;
  2. We tuck the ends to the middle of the strip;
  3. Bend it in the middle and smooth it carefully;
  4. Repeat steps one through three twice.

  6. Thus, by repeating many times we will create a tape. For a vase you need 5 such ribbons;
  7. We fasten the strips together with thread;
  8. Finally, we glue the ribbons to the box and sew the edges.

Photo frame

The regular frame can now be replaced with the original one. For this craft you will need: candy wrappers, crochet hook, cardboard, glue:

  • Using a hook, a tube is wound from two wrappers and glued together.
  • Next, we cut out the cardboard base, a little larger than the photo itself, and glue the photo to it.
  • We place tubes on the unoccupied edges.

Garland

With just wrappers, thread and a needle, and scissors, you can make a garland. First of all, the candy wrappers are cut in half, then each part is rolled into a tube. The folded parts are put on a needle. As a result, we have a multi-colored wall item.

Panel

You can easily make a panel from candy wrappers. A panel is a piece of fabric whose purpose is to decorate walls or ceilings.

Perhaps a useful form of art, since thanks to it the design of an apartment or house is improved. For implementation we will need: cardboard, fabric, candy wrappers and glue.

We fold the wrappers in half several times until we get thin strips.

Next, we twist tight rings, brushing the edges of the candy wrapper with glue as the layer of the figure grows.

We glue the resulting rings onto cardboard covered with fabric. Now our apartment looks very stylish and original.

Curtain

We continue to create an individual style of living space. This time we'll look at creating a curtain. I'll describe it step by step:

  2. Fold in half, crosswise, and then fold a couple of halves in half again towards the middle;
  3. We connect the parts obtained as a result of completing steps 1 and 2 until the required length is achieved;

Dress made from candy wrappers

Creating a beautiful dress from candy wrappers is a painstaking task that requires perseverance, creative talent and quite a bit of money to buy candy. To create a dress for a child 8-10 years old, you will need at least 5,000 candy wrappers. In order to quickly collect the required amount of candy wrappers, involve your friends, relatives, and acquaintances.

Before making a dress, you need to decide what technique the dress will be made in? Based on the type of basket weaving, such a dress will be strong and suitable for frequent wear.

A great idea for creating a craft from candy wrappers is a hat. A child can create a hat for himself or for a doll with his own hands, while developing creativity, perseverance and patience. Such creative work between mother and child will allow you to spend more time together.

The following materials will be required:

  • candy wrappers,
  • threads,
  • needle,
  • cardboard,
  • centimeter,
  • scissors.

Performance:

  1. We measure the child's head with a centimeter;

  5. Determine the desired depth of the hat. For example: 10 strands are 10-12 cm, which means the depth of the hat will be 10-12 cm;
  6. We sew the bundles together to create a small fabric. Roll it into a ring and tie it tightly with threads, or with a bright, beautiful ribbon - this will be the back side of the hat;
  7. We measure the diameter of the resulting ring. To this diameter we add the width of the hat brim. For example: The diameter of the ring is 12 cm, the brim of the hat is 10 cm. Then you need to cut out a circle from cardboard 12 cm + 10 cm (front) + 10 cm (back) = 32 cm; Inside the hat, cut a circle with a diameter of 11 cm, i.e. 1 cm less than the diameter of the ring of strands;
  8. On the inside of the cardboard circle, make cuts along the diameter at a distance of about 1 cm from each other. Bend these cuts upward and sew them inside to the hat from ropes;
  9. For the brim of the hat, prepare strands of candy wrappers and glue them with glue;
  10. For the top of the hat, cut out a circle of the required diameter from cardboard, cover it with strands or just candy wrappers.

Performance:

  1. Divide the candy wrappers by color and iron with a warm iron. For the bracelet you will need 25 candy wrappers;
  2. We bend the edges of the first wrapper inward and fold it in half lengthwise, so that the edges are on the inside. (The rest of the candy wrappers are also rolled up);
  3. Fold the resulting strip in half crosswise;
  4. Connect 2 blanks by inserting the first into the second. The result is a loop that should be slightly larger than the width of the strip made. On the other side there will be 2 edges of the workpiece;


    DIY crafts made from candy wrappers can be combined with various beads, chains and other decorative items.

  5. Turn the first edge parallel to the second strip - you will get a corner that needs to be folded on top of the second strip;
  6. The same actions are performed with the second edge. If the workpiece is turned sideways, the folds will look like an airplane. Secure these folds with a paper clip or clothespin;
  7. Do the same steps with the second strip - you get 2 airplanes, the wings of which must be tucked into the first strip;
  8. Next, insert the subsequent strips one by one and carry out the same actions;
  9. Having finished weaving the strips, we roll the bracelet into a ring. We remove the clothespin from the first strip and tuck the airplane wings into the last strip, thus connecting the entire bracelet.
