Christmas decorative Christmas trees made of fabric and thread
We continue to prepare for the New Year!I found a few more ideas for small Christmas trees that can be used to decorate the interior of a room. Even one such tree on an office desk will create the right mood of expectation of something fabulous and magical! Each tree is easy and simple to make with your own hands. The basis for the craft will be a cone made of polystyrene foam, floristic foam or cardboard. You can look for a foam blank in flower shops where materials for holiday bouquets and floral arrangements are sold. And we will decorate the cone - the Christmas tree:
- woolen thread
- felt circles
- cloth with ribbons, laces and beads
Decorative Christmas tree of woolen yarn or rope
I really like these trees:soft, pleasant to the touch, creating an atmosphere of coziness and warmth, quickly and easily made with your own hands. You can easily create a whole decorative forest on a shelf or give them to friends as gifts.
We will need:
- cones of foam or cardboard;
- a couple of coils of woolen yarn or rope, can be of different colors, thickness and texture;
- pins or glue;
- all sorts of decorative things for decorating the Christmas tree - beads, balls, asterisks, etc .;
We start the work from the base of the cone. We fix the beginning of the yarn with pins, wind it around the cone in the upward direction. You can use glue instead of pins.
Continue wrapping the cone with yarn or rope. Pins should be used to secure only the starting bottom row and the last one on top; pins are not necessary in the middle.
Once the entire surface of the tree is wrapped and the yarn is securely fastened, you can begin decorating it with beads, balls, miniature garlands and whatever else your heart desires!
Herringbone with felt circles
This tree is covered with scales (or tiles, whichever you prefer). To work you will need:
- all the same cones of foam or cardboard;
- a piece of dense fabric, for example, felt or felt;
- Pins;
Use a small round object as a template for the pieces, such as a lid or a tea light. Trace it onto the fabric and then cut out all the circles.
The shape does not necessarily have to be round; the details can also be in the form of petals, stars, or triangles.
Using ordinary pins, we pin the scales onto the cone, each one slightly covering the neighboring one, and the top one - the bottom one.
Use colorful scraps, decorate with beads and ribbons - and be sure to enjoy your work!
Christmas tree made of fabric with ribbons and laces
You can decorate all horizontal surfaces in your apartment with cheerful, bright and tenderly girlish holiday trees. For work you will need:
- cones of foam or cardboard;
- flaps of any fabric of various colors, patterns and textures;
- pins, thread with a needle or glue;
- satin ribbons, lace, buttons, bells - everything for decorative decoration of the Christmas tree;
- without a fine mood, do not even go for handicrafts
Cut out the Christmas tree pieces from the fabric. The pattern for each layer is approximately this shape:
The use of this gives a very beautiful result.fabrics in the same color scheme, but different shades, from dark at the bottom to light at the top of the tree. But this is not necessary! Try combining plain neutral or bright patches, layers of polka dots, checks or flowers, wool, calico, silk or linen fabrics.
We start again from the base of the cone.The first layer is wrapped so that the edge of the strip of fabric protrudes beyond the cone by a centimeter or one and a half. Using scissors, cut out such teeth that they easily cover the bottom of the cone. For fastening, use hot glue or pins. Each subsequent layer of a different color is glued higher and so that it slightly overlaps the bottom one.
We pin, sew or glue ribbons, wide lace, beads and other decorative elements on top of the fabric.
The Christmas trees are ready!
