This master class is designed for those who want to learn how to make a Christmas tree from napkins
Napkins are a very convenient material for creativity, safe for children and leaving a lot of room for imagination. We got this miracle, and what will you get?To work on the Christmas tree we needed:
- a packet of light green napkins;
- cardboard for warp;
- scissors, pencil, ruler, stapler number 10 with brackets;
- PVA glue;
- double sided tape;
- tinsel, balls and fur-tree toys for decoration.
First we need to make a base cone forChristmas trees. The size of this part will be your Christmas tree. Fold the cardboard into a cone and staple it. Trim the edges of the cone so that it stands firmly. Then divide the napkins into small packs of 3-5 pieces. The more layers you take, the fluffier your Christmas tree will be. Draw circles with a template and cut them out, holding the napkins in packs. Staple each stack of the resulting circles in the center. Then you need to form pompoms from a napkin to your taste: either squeeze slightly to get a blossoming bud (like mine), or crumple each circle layer by layer towards the center so that the buds are tighter. When all the napkins are ready, we begin gluing them to the cone. You need to glue from below using double-sided tape. It is advisable to place the inflorescences more often and in a checkerboard pattern so that the base is not visible, but if there are gaps somewhere, glue the petals with glue to cover them. The last stage of work is decorating the resulting tree. Decorate it with tinsel, Christmas tree decorations and balls, attaching them with double-sided tape. Beads and various homemade elements look good on such a tree - bows, balls. Christmas trees decorated in the same color scheme or with decorations of the same shape but different colors turn out very interesting.
