The garlands look great all year round, but especially good for the holidays - New Year, Easter, Birthday or Halloween. You can decorate the walls, ceiling or windows of any room with a garland - from the kitchen to the children's room, as well as a Christmas tree or mantelpiece. In this material we will give you 10 ideas with step-by-step master classes How to make a garland with your own hands from scrap, natural and even waste materials.

New Year's garland of voluminous snowflakes

We present the first idea for making a garland for the New Year with your own hands - from snowflakes. We probably all remember how to cut a flat snowflake from square sheet paper. This method will help you out if you need to make a garland in the shortest possible time. However, if you want to make a more elegant decoration, we suggest assembling it from volumetric snowflakes. They take a little longer and are more complicated to make, but the resulting garland will survive more than one holiday.

Instructions:

Prepare paper, such as regular office paper, a pencil, scissors, a stapler, glue or double-sided tape, and thread.

1. Divide a sheet of A4 paper into two equal strips.
2. Now assemble each strip into an accordion. This can be done in the following way: fold the strip in half, then fold the half in half again, then also fold the quarter in half and continue until the entire strip has folds. Next, focusing on the fold lines, assemble the accordion.

1. Cut one small strip from your accordion, cut it in half, and then draw a template on it that you will use to cut out the snowflake patterns. The template is drawn arbitrarily, but so that the edges of the assembled accordion remain uncut in two or three places. An example of the template can be seen in the top right photo.
2. Bend the accordion in half and fasten it in the middle with a stapler.
3. Use a pencil to trace the outline of the template on one of the halves of your workpiece, and then use scissors to cut off the corresponding parts of the design.
4. Repeat Step #5 with the other half of the piece, using the same template.
5. Fan out each half of your piece and glue their ends together.
6. Hang snowflake medallions on a beautiful thread, such as silver.

Brushes made of thread or paper in silence

And now we present the idea of ​​​​making a garland with your own hands, which is the most fashionable attribute of birthday celebrations or weddings - a garland with tassels. In our master class you will learn how to make a large version of the decoration, but using the same principle you can easily make mini tassels (for example, for decorating a Christmas tree) using smaller paper.

Instructions:

Prepare the following materials and tools:

• Sheets of paper 50×50 cm or 50×60 cm (to make 2 tassels you need 1 sheet);
• Scissors;
• Ribbon.

1. Fold a piece of tissue paper in half, then in half again, but in the other direction, to make a quarter.
2. To create a fringe, start cutting your workpiece into strips (no more than 1 cm wide) not reaching the fold line of about 2.5-3 cm.
3. Now cut the fringed quarter into two halves along the fold line. You will get two blanks as in the photo below.

1. Unfold one piece and start rolling it tightly, as shown in the next photo.

1. Once you have completely rolled the piece (see photo above), fold it in half and then twist the two halves together to create a loop for hanging from the ribbon. Secure the loop with transparent glue (eg PVA) or thread.

1. Make a few more tassels in different colors and hang them on the ribbon.

In this video you can see detailed master class How to make a garland of tassels with your own hands.

Paper flowers can freshen up your surroundings just as well as real ones. The photo below shows an example of table decoration with flowers made from napkins.

You will need napkins or thin multi-colored wrapping paper, scissors, thread, glue, and wire. It is necessary to cut the napkins into strips and fold them like an accordion. The edge of the paper accordion needs to be cut using one of the methods suggested in the photo below and unfolded. Then the strip is twisted and tightly wrapped at one end with thread.

Paper balls hanging from the ceiling on strings different lengths, look very impressive, but even in a tight bunch, balls are a great way to decorate a space. You can see this in the photo example below.

The easiest way to make such balls is to buy ready-made ones in the store and string them on a thread. Making them is a very painstaking task. It is necessary to cut a large number of circles from colored double-sided paper. Then fold the circles in half and glue them one by one. The more circles, the more voluminous and “filled” the ball will be.

The presence of partitions depends on the method of gluing the halves of the circles to each other. The finished balls must be collected on a thread (base) and attached to the surface.

The flashlight element is very similar to the ball, but it is even more difficult to complete. They do not need to be made large; the smaller they are, the more they attract the eye and delight others. To make lanterns you will need cardboard and scissors. First you need to cut out a large number of blanks, and then simply fasten them with glue or using cut out hooks.

What materials can it be made from?

There are many options for making a flower garland. This decor can be made even from plastic bottles. Today, Hawaiian themes are especially popular.

From fresh flowers

Naturally, decorations made from fresh flowers will be much more effective and beautiful. To create a floral decoration, you need to prepare several necessary items.

• Flowers. Carnations are best suited for garlands, as they do not require special care, last a long time and are very convenient to work with. Depending on personal preferences, flowers can be chosen either in one color or in different colors.
• Scissors.
• Fishing line.
• A couple of large and strong tailor's needles.

As before any work, you need to clearly calculate the upcoming stages of action.

• First you need to calculate how many copies are needed, as well as the size of each of the garlands. If you make several floral threads and then arrange them vertically and parallel to each other, the overall result is something similar to a curtain.
• After determining the length, the next step is to count the number of flowers for each thread. The gap between colors can be made to any size. If the flowers are placed at a distance of about twenty centimeters from each other, the product will be lighter. If you place flower elements more often, the garland will look more luxurious. The distances between flowers can be changed: for example, flowers are placed less frequently in one part of the product, and, on the contrary, more often in another. But you can also gradually increase or decrease the intervals.
• Decide on a color. The best option would be to use flowers in up to three shades. There is no need for a large variety of colors. You need to think about how the colors will alternate. You can simply make each garland a different shade, or you can alternate a couple of flowers inside each one.

• Cut buds from selected flowers of the required shades.
• Then you need to prepare a fishing line of the required length, it is advisable to make a larger reserve. Thread it into the eye of the needle. To secure the bottom of the flower, you need to tie a knot at the end of the fishing line. Next, thread the bud onto the fishing line in the place where the stem was before, from bottom to top.
• Decide on the location of the next flower, tie a knot for it and repeat the previous step. Then repeat the steps until the entire thread is filled with flowers.
• This should leave enough line so that the end can be tied to something. It is possible to make garlands on the eve of the holiday, and put them in a cool place at night. On the day of the holiday, all that remains is to place the garlands in the designated places.

From paper

In addition, it is possible to make garlands of paper flowers. To do this, you just need to show your skill and imagination.

Since ancient times, flowers have been a symbol of peace and love, as well as a decoration for any event. When celebrating any significant date, be it a wedding or anniversary, some anniversary or other holiday, you can’t do without these bright elements of nature.

The best and most economical way to decorate is to decorate a paper sample with flowers. To make such products, you must first make templates.

The first thing you need to do is draw stencils of the elements for making the garland. You can use plain paper for flowers white, but it’s better to use colored paper so that you don’t have to paint it later. But it all depends on personal preferences.

Next you need to cut out the elements of the drawn flowers. All parts must be processed. You need to use a small cylindrical object so that you can round off the ends of the petals. So, the bud will look more real as a result.

Having combined all the parts into a bud, you need to start making green leaves using the template you made. All sheets will need to be bent with the same cylindrical object in order for them to look more natural.

Each flower element of the garland should consist of several buds. You need to glue them together with a flat surface. The result should be a beautiful multi-petal bud.

Decorations in the form of garlands of paper flowers will always be appropriate in any time period. Especially in the spring, when there is a desire for the winter season to end quickly, no other decoration will be a better mood lifter than wonderful garlands of flowers made by yourself. Especially on the eve of the International women's day you need to think about decorating the festive hall. This is where your ingenuity in crafting paper buds comes in handy, which will become an unusual and delicate part of the interior. Besides the fact that such an element looks similar to natural flowers, it is done simply, without taking much time. Even an inexperienced person can create it with his own hands.

You can even involve children in creativity: there will be benefits and entertainment for the child.

What you will need to make a paper garland:

• paper of certain colors, even plain paper White paper perfect for offices;
• cardboard;
• hole puncher;
• green paper for creating petals, the best option there will be dense material;
• green paint;
• small brush;
• paper scissors and cardboard cutter;
• hot glue gun;
• stapler;
• stencils.

Let's look at the step-by-step instructions.

• Initially, you need to fold a sheet of paper measuring twenty-two by twenty-eight millimeters in the form of an accordion of twenty millimeters. The remainder must be trimmed.
• The folded part must be folded in half and secured with staples using a stapler at the bend.
• Then you need to cut off the corners of the folded paper in order to give the petals a round shape.
• Then repeat the steps, creating another folding blank for the bud.
• Glue both pieces together and unfold the leaves around the circumference.
• Then you need to cut out small circles for the middle of the flower. Here you will need three of them per floral element. You can paint these circles as you wish.
• The circles must be glued using a hot glue gun. One detail is on top, the other is on the bottom of the bud.

Using the template, you will need to create leaves for decoration from flowers in the same way as in the sketch, and color them as you wish. You need to make two holes in the center of the leaves. Thread a fishing line through them and place a third circle of paper on it.

From foam plastic

Cut it into seven by seven centimeter squares, this will depend on the size of the flower buds you need to make. Next, with a sharp tool, cut out the configuration of flowers from these squares; if the knife is sharp, then this is not so difficult. All actions must be performed extremely carefully to avoid breakage of the workpiece, not forgetting the fragility of the material.

Paint the finished buds with the colors you like and leave to dry. While the buds are drying, you need to prepare green leaves from cardboard. To do this, you need to make a stencil and cut out leaves along it. Once everything is prepared, you can begin making the garland itself. Thread the thread into the eye of the needle and string, alternating buds with petals.

Flowers can be threaded from the bottom up, or through the sides, as you like.

From napkins

Now let’s look at the easiest way to make flower garlands. When using ordinary napkins made of delicate paper, it is possible to create a very beautiful and airy composition. These flowers are very similar to poinsettias. This garland can be an excellent decoration for a room; against the backdrop of such beauty, you can take excellent photographs, and they can become a decoration for any holiday. Making such a miracle is very easy and entertaining.

To do this you will need:

• more different napkins, you can choose any color;
• scissors;
• colored pencil or felt-tip pen;
• thin ribbon for gifts or wide thread in a color depending on preference, but preferably green shades;
• glue or anything else that can be used to fix the flowers to the base.

I started looking for some brand new garland for the New Year... Every December they ask me to bring a homemade decoration to school or kindergarten, I try to find something interesting. The main criteria are fast, cheap and elegant.

This time I didn’t find anything, but I came across a short video master class on folding a fabric napkin in the shape of a Christmas tree... Don’t be alarmed, everything is clear, even if it’s in English :-).

It was on the basis of this example that I came up with a garland of lace (they are also called “confectionery”) and regular napkins.

First, we place our white napkin on a regular plain bright napkin. Now you need to cut the bottom one so that you get a circle with a larger diameter than the top lace. About 0.5 cm.

All! Now fold it in half (the colored napkin should be inside) and copy all the steps from the master class, except for ironing. A little later we will need to glue all the folds together with a glue stick. Oh yes! You need to fold it WITHOUT displacement. Just in half.

I pinned the ribbon using a stapler. Think about what type of paper garland you will have - vertical or horizontal.

After the ribbon is secured, you need to apply glue in the folds so that the Christmas trees do not open.

This is what our garland looks like on a plain wall or on a window:
