Christmas tree toy “Star”

For New Year 2022, the main decoration of the house is, of course, the Christmas tree.
Therefore, all the attention of your visiting guests will be focused on it. Considering this important moment, it’s worth putting some effort into her festive outfit. Beautiful colorful toys can, of course, be purchased at the nearest store, which on the eve of the New Year holidays will simply be overflowing with such products. But it’s still better to create the image of a New Year tree with the help of original toys made with your own hands from any materials you like, especially paper. It is so malleable that people have learned to make wonderful origami crafts from it, even for New Year’s Eve. Let's create something interesting and simple, for example, a star for a Christmas tree, which is perfect for beginners. To work you will need:

• colored thick paper or cardboard A4 format - 8 sheets;
• a simple pencil;
• scissors;
• decorative thread.

Progress:

1. Take thick colored paper or cardboard and fold it in half. We have a rectangle.
2. We bend the corner of its small left side, pulling it towards the center of the folded paper, then you need to straighten it. Now we pull the larger side of our rectangle to its second parallel side. We straightened out the sheet of paper again and thus we got the intersection of lines, which will be our center of the star. Let's mark it with a simple pencil.
3. Next, take the corner of its right side and pull it to our marked center. Iron it thoroughly.
4. We attach the right corner, which we connected to the center, to its opposite side and fix it with a finger, pressing the resulting line. We have a kind of quadrangle.
5. We connect the right side of the paper, on which we marked the center, to the resulting quadrangle, tightly pressing the straight connecting lines to each other. We also got a triangle this way.
6. We fold two geometric shapes in half along the joint line, bending them inside out and carefully ironing all sides with a finger.
7. Then we take scissors and trim the excess edge of the figure so that we get a small triangle.
8. After this, we open our paper product, completely straightening it. As a result, we have formed a five-pointed structure, on which we draw all the fold lines with a simple pencil. Now it will be easier for us to navigate and assemble this New Year’s craft with our own hands.
9. When you finish using the origami technique, don’t forget to attach a shiny thread to our five-pointed star, as this is a Christmas tree decoration.

This is how, with hard work, you can create a wonderful decoration for your Christmas tree for the New Year 2022. To help you quickly understand this sensitive matter, we provide our training video.

New role of “Samurai Helmet”

One of children's favorite models, which is often used as an element of a New Year's costume, can easily be turned into a Christmas tree toy. Miniature “Samurai Helmets” in this case are used as modules from which the original pendant is assembled.

You will need:

1. sheets of single-sided paper “kami” 15x15 cm;
2. decorative cord matching the color;
3. beads;
4. scissors, glue stick.

Step-by-step instruction:

The toy will require 8 “Samurai Helmets”. Each of them is folded based on a square. It is most convenient to take ready-made sheets intended for origami. Stationery stickers also have the required format, but are colored the same on both sides - they will not make a toy so elegant.

Assembly diagram:

• Bend the square diagonally from top to bottom.
• We lower the side corners to the bottom point.
• Then we lift it to the top, folding the layer closest to us in half.
• We move the resulting valves apart, bending them along the dotted lines shown in the figure.
• The lower part of the figure has two layers. The top one needs to be lifted, folded along the dotted line.
• And then tuck it once, aligning it with the central axis.
• The module is ready. We need 7 more of the same.

Christmas tree decoration:

• We take two “Helmets” and place them opposite each other. We coat the triangular valve of one of them with glue and put it in the “pocket” of the other.
• We repeat the same action for all four pairs.
• When the blanks are glued, we connect them together.
• To do this, insert the remaining free valve into the “pocket” of the element from the next pair.

• We make sure that the smooth sides of the “Helmets” are located next to each other.
• Glue them together in pairs.
• Fold the twine or thick thread in half and use a needle to pull it through the center of the toy.
• We tie a loop at the top and string several different sizes and types of beads at the bottom.

New Year's days are full of magic. Even the combat “Samurai Helmet” can turn into a stunning Christmas tree ball.

And this is far from the only transformation. For example, the “Water Bomb”, familiar to everyone from childhood, does not douse with water on holiday, but becomes a miniature gift decorating the Christmas tree. All you need to “change your role” is beautiful wrapping paper and satin ribbon.

Snowflake made from origami modules

A snowflake created from origami modules will certainly be a very beautiful craft for the New Year 2022. Naturally, making such a miracle with your own hands will require a significant amount of time, and especially effort. But this should not scare you, because the end result is a fragile and elegant product made from ordinary paper. Let's see how all this is done at home.

To work you will need:

• white paper, A4 format - 5 sheets;
• blue paper, A4 format - 4 sheets;
• pencil;
• ruler;
• scissors;
• glue.

Progress:

To create this craft, you need to create 150 white and 120 blue modules.

1. Let's start making origami modules with our own hands. To do this, take all the A4 sheets and divide them into 32 rectangular parts, then cut them out.
2. Next, take one resulting rectangle and fold it in half horizontally, and then vertically, marking the center line.
3. We bend the upper right and left corners to the center, after which we turn the workpiece over and bend the lower right and left corners.
4. We lift the lower part, fold it in half and get the first module. We manufacture subsequent modules in the same way.
5. Having completed the work of creating the modules, we immediately begin assembling them. In order to securely fix all the parts of our product, we use glue. We combine 2 rows of 6 white elements into a ring, inserting them into each other.
6. Be careful, as the number of modules is doubled on the third row. This is achieved by dressing two by one, resulting in 12 modules.
7. To make our decoration look more elegant for the New Year 2022, we decorate it with blue modules, starting to introduce them from the fourth row. It is identical to the previous one, so at this stage there are also 12 modules.
8. In the next row we must double the number of elements in the row. This means that in the fifth row there will be 24 modules. We do the next sixth row in exactly the same way as the fifth.
9. So we have done part of the work. Now we proceed to the seventh row, in which we collect 24 modules, alternating the combination in a circle: 3 blue, 1 white module. 6 sharp blue corners appear.
10. Next we work only with blue rays. To each of the three blue modules we add two more, and then one part. A narrowing occurs.
11. Now we are making white arches, which consist of 17 modules. In the seventh row, white modules remained - this is the basis of the arches. One module is taken, another pocket is put on it, thus framing the blue beam. It remains to collect 5 more white arches.
12. And the last stage of assembling a snowflake with your own hands using the modular origami technique is composing small rays. They are made of 5 modules, inserted like a column and three modules on top, which make the tips fluffy. We attach them to our craft. There you go! This will certainly be the most wonderful holiday decoration for everyone, especially as your children will find it interesting.
