Bright colorful garlands occupy not the last place in New Year's decor. Of course, in stores before the New Year, all the shelves will be literally piled high with various garlands for every taste and color. But why not treat yourself and your loved ones with garlands made with your own hands. Handmade decorations are perfect for decorating a home, office, or school, kindergarten. Garlands are also easy to make and do not require much time, effort or expensive materials.
Idea #1: Bright Light Bulbs
Draw 2 light bulb templates on white paper. Cut one of them in half: the base and the bulb itself. Redraw the bulbs on colored cardboard, and the base on black. Trace the entire template on white paper. Cut out the colored and white blanks and glue them together, first pulling a string between them. You can use a glue gun to glue the bulbs to the twine.
Idea #2: Funny Birds
Bird templates can be downloaded from the Internet and printed on white paper, cut out. Draw the templates on any paper with a bright colorful pattern. As a result, you should get a pair of a white and colored bird. Draw the beak and eyes with a marker and glue the birds in pairs. The space on the thread between the birds should be filled with beads.
Idea #3: Stylish Christmas trees
The Christmas tree template can be easily drawn schematically on paper, then transferred to colored cardboard. If possible, cover the cardboard with glitter or micro glitter. You need to cut out the number of Christmas trees. Use a thick needle or an awl to make holes at the top of each tree and at the bottom. The figures need to be strung on a thread with gaps, and to prevent the trees from rolling into a heap, secure them with a couple of stitches or a glue gun.
Idea #4: Magic Lantern
The colored sheets of paper need to be folded in half, iron the fold well to get a rectangle. At the fold, use a ruler to put marks every centimeter. Then, at each mark, you need to make a cut, not reaching the edge by about one and a half centimeters.
After this, unfold the sheet and roll it into a cylinder, glue the edges. Attach a strip of the same colored paper 1 cm wide to the top of the lantern.
Idea #5: Paper Chains
Prepare strips of colored or wrapping paper 1-2 cm wide and 5-7 cm long. These will be the links of the New Year's chain. Connect the paper strip into a ring, thread the next strip through the resulting ring and also fasten its ends. Continue this until you get a chain of the desired length.
Idea #6: Balloon Garland
Here you also need to cut strips of 1 cm by 10 cm. But the principle of gluing the rings is a little different. Glue a ring from the first strip, then glue another strip so that it wraps around the first one. At the top, all these strips should be fastened. Using the same method, add about 4 more sides to the ball, filling the space. Pull the twine thread through the finished balls.
