When the window is cold and gloomy, I like to do needlework. I am especially pleased with the crafts with the children. They love to create interesting little things and are sincerely surprised by the magical transformation. One boring and rainy day, my kids and I went into manufacturing.

Making it was very easy. Once again, I felt like an apprentice to real professionals. We have four original trees! Two daughters immediately took to school - to give the teacher and girlfriend. With a more professional approach, such Christmas trees harmoniously fit into the New Year interior and will be an excellent gift for loved ones. Look at the detailed instructions.

Manufacture
- Draw two identical triangles on the cardboard and cut them out. This will be the basis of our Christmas tree. Choose a monochromatic cardboard and rather dense. The ideal option is leftovers from the packaging box.
- Fix the stick in the center between the triangles and glue them. So that the cardboard base does not stratify, it is better to pinch the base with pinches. You can use any glue or hot gun at work. Always follow the rules of safety when creating with children.
- Wrap the cardboard frame with threads from the bottom up, gluing them as needed. You can take any string, not necessarily string. Dense colored yarn or mohair will look even more interesting. Try to carefully lay the threads one after another. If there are gaps - nothing terrible, put another layer on top. Remember the pins, they will hold the threads at the edges of the triangle and they will not unwind. Wrap the barrel at the very end.
- Start decorating the Christmas tree with beads, bows, sequins. Go mass, turn on the imagination and act!
- To prevent the tree from falling, use a paper cup as a pot. Let it be monochromatic or white. Perfect and plastic from cottage cheese or yogurt. I had a plaster, but I can do without it. Put a few pebbles at the bottom of the cup, and on top of it, tamp them tightly with napkins.
- The top layer is abundantly fielded with glue, sprinkled with foam balls or finely sliced white paper. They will play the role of snow in our composition. You can decorate the cup as you please.
- Praise yourself and enjoy the result!
This instruction can be used for hanging toys, which are based on different figures of cardboard.
