Relatively recently, such a list of extraordinary materials for man-made miracles was joined by wadded disks, from which, it turns out, you can also make many interesting crafts. The most interesting ideas, where you can apply wadded disks - pictures and topiary, which can be a very effective gift for the New Year. Therefore, we offer to your attention a couple of interesting master classes on the manufacture of crafts made of cottonwoods in the form of a New Year tree and a tree of happiness.
New Year tree made of cotton wool, master class with photo
Such an unusually beautiful Christmas tree, although it will take you enough time, but the result will definitely please you.
Necessary materials:
- cotton wheels (about 4 packs of 100 pcs.);
- beads;
- a stapler;
- glue "Moment";
- cardboard;
- acrylic paint (white).
Step-by-step instructions for making a New Year tree:
- Let's start with the needles of the tree, which in our case are more like petals. The scheme of their creation is as follows: bend the disk four times (once in half, and then this half again in half) and fix the whole construction with a stapler (in the corner area of the workpiece). And so do with most of the discs.
- Now we will make a trunk for the New Year tree, in the role of which will make a cone of cardboard. What height will be your tree made of cotton wool - it's up to you. We propose to make a cone about 50 cm in size. The border of the finished cone is pasted with a braid of white color, and the cone is painted with white paint and dried.
- We proceed to the formation of our white beauty by gluing the needles-petals around the cone with the folded side to it. We glue them tightly to each other, moving in a circle. The first "belt" of needles is attached to the bottom of the cone, just above it we glue the second - and so gradually move upwards, row after row.
- A ready fir-tree is decorated with beads and a star is planted on top.

New Year crafts - pictures and Christmas trees, of course, are interesting and attractive. But nothing compares to the refined beauty of the topiary from this material, which we suggest we do.
Required for topiary materials:
- cotton wheels;
- white thread;
- glue thermo gun;
- a foam ball;
- beads;
- a pot for a tree (a cup, a candlestick, a jar from under a cream, etc.);
- gypsum;
- green and orange watercolor paints;
- barrel (any suitable stick for this).
Step-by-step instruction for making topiary made of cotton wheels
- Prepare the "leaves" for our tree: bend the edges of the disk from one side and the other so that it looks like something like a flat crochet, and we pull it with a thread at the level 1/3 from the side of the narrower end. Then gently turn out the wider edge, as a result of which we should get a small rose. And so do more roses.
- We paint several discs in green, dry them and cut out leaves.
- Now we form our wonderful tree of happiness: with the help of a thermo-gun we glue it to the foam plastic ball of roses and leaves, decorate it with beads, and place it on the barrel. The trunk itself is decorated with threads with beads.
- Selected pots under the pot we paint in orange, we also decorate with beads. "We plant" a tree in it and fill it with gypsum. We fall asleep on top of the gypsum with a layer of beads. You can stick a couple of green leaves.
Such a pretty tree will be a wonderful decoration for the New Year's table or an equally wonderful gift for the New Year.
