Tools for crafts

It is necessary to start any business with thinking out the action plan and in this case, from the very beginning it is necessary to think about the necessary tools that should be at hand to create a Christmas tree from corrugated paper:

• Cardboard. In this case, this basis of the foundation and without it will not work intended. Cardboard can be simple, not colored, so you can find it at myself on the balcony (for example, take a piece of boxes from under shoes, etc.).

• Corrugated paper (it is better to take a dense, several colors). Great and red paper look perfectly on the Christmas tree - traditional "christmas" colors.
• Scissors. It is clear that without them in this matter just can not do. They should not be too big, because to use such in the process under consideration, it will be inconvenient.
• Glue (an excellent version of PVA, as they say, cheap and angry, especially, it fastens the paper is excellent).
• Sequins (they can be of any color, need sparkles to create a brighter composition).
• Wat, a bow, tape is the whole attribute that will make our future composition completed.
• The wooden line will be the best option, because from it on paper and other surfaces does not remain pencil and markers, in contrast to the plastic counterpart.
• Threads and beads are little things that will help make a Christmas tree more color and beautiful.
• Circul - an optional tool, but at the same time, the process of creating a Christmas tree with it will be much easier, so keep in mind.

Corrugated paper christmas tree instructions

So, we do everything in stages:

• It all starts with the foundation, and this case is no exception. We will deal with the basis for our future Christmas tree. To do this, we will need a cardboard so that you end up with a cone, the radius of which will be equal to 15 cm. In order to make such a cone, it is necessary to draw a 30 centimeter lane on the cardboard sheet. After that, put the point in the middle of this strip and there is already a circulation from it with a semicircle whose radius, respectively, will be equal to 15 cm (that is, half the length of our strip).
• When the cone is already in our hands, it must be copped, so that when we put it aside, he did not break up. You can use for such a goal any adhesive composition or material, PVA glue is not bad.
• When our cone is fully prepared, you can postpone it to the side and take up the need of the needles of our future Christmas tree.
• The sheet of corrugated paper must be attached to the cone and measure how much paper is needed in order to cover the entire surface of our Christmas tree. Now we glue the Christmas tree with this paper (also using PVA glue). Ultimately in our hands the finished stem of our Christmas tree.
• We take another sheet of corrugated paper and cut the strips of the same size, and thus cut a lot of strips. In this case, you can cut the strips of exceptionally green, and you can take a few shades of green so that the Christmas tree turns out more interesting. The optimal option so that the strips were centimeters of 12, and such bands must be 100 (width no more than 1 cm). It will be great if someone will help you create such a craft.
• Now every car strip must be slightly "smaller", that is, to make side cuts on it, about it up to the middle. So that the process under consideration was not so tedious, you can put one on one at once several lanes.
• The next step is the manufacture of needles. We take our stripes with a fringe, we sweat each to the toothpick and the end glit to the base of the part so that it does not work out. There are a lot of strips, and this process should be done with each of them. After the glue on paper is completely dry, remove the blanks from the toothpicks.
• Each roller resulting in this process will need to flush so that the Christmas tree turned out to be more fluffy and volumetric. Ultimately, we get a lot of green pumps.

• We stick a hive to the cone (our barrel), we do it carefully and is tight enough so that there were no spaces on the surface of the trunk of our Christmas tree. And it is worth understanding that the magnificity of forest paper beauty will depend on the density of pump gluing.
• Now it's time to make decorations on the Christmas tree. To do this, it is possible to cut corrugated paper with small squares (preferably red), take the beerink and put it on the thread, and it is rewinded in the middle of the previously cut red square. So we get red bows for our Christmas tree.
• All bows made to our needles on the Christmas tree after which, we throw small flip pieces on her (imitation of snow on branches). You can also roll from very small pieces of balls, not too dense torture it in the glue and sprinkle with sparkles so that they keep on its surface.

Such a composition will look very great and unusually, and everyone will like everyone who sees this beauty. This craft can be put at home or send to the exhibition, so you can decide where it is more useful.
