New Year's garland
Today I would like to tell you about a decoration - a handmade garland. Her jewelry is made in the style quilling, - by rolling and gluing paper. However, in the process of making it, we did not use special paper, but took what was at hand, but the most suitable one. This could be, for example, satin colored paper, sold in Ikea stores, or colored printer paper. Taking its place in the room, this garland will give it a cheerful, festive look.
To make such a decoration, we will need:
1) Colored paper, most suitable for quilling.
2) Scissors, glue;
3) Tweezers, tape;
4) Pen rod.
The first one we will make is a blue snowflake. We cut the paper into strips for it and, if desired, using a rod, twist the circles into a spiral. We make five such figures:
Now we twist the same number of other figures called “horns”. These are:
We glue the strip lying next to the “horns” in the photo, folding it in two. And we make five of the same stripes. We fold the spiral circles into oblong rhombuses and glue together all the composed figures, pressing them with thin tweezers.We get this figure:
We cut new strips of paper for it:
We make five special shapes from them, called “oak leaves”: we fold each strip five times, and glue their ends together as shown in the photo below:
Using a needle, we reveal the figure:
Next, we make five tight round figures and five drop-shaped figures, and then glue them to the snowflake. You should end up with a figure like this:
And then the snowflake can be supplemented with new patterns. We got this figurine:
Now we make the flower. Cutting colored strips:
By twisting and gluing them, we form seven tight round figures and six large ones, and then glue them together. This is a ready-made flower corolla:
By twisting a long strip of green color using a rod, we form a stem for our flower, and glue leaf figures to the sides of it. We attach the resulting stem to the corolla of the flower and our flower is ready:
Now let's make a yellow butterfly. First, cut out two strips of black colored paper and twist them in a spiral using a rod, gluing in some areas along the length of each strip on the inside so that the curl holds tightly:
Now glue them together and glue the antennae:
Then from strips of yellow paper we will make wings, that is, for now only their “walls”, which can be filled with beautiful patterned figures.
The first decoration for the wings were figurines called “oak leaves”, which we made when making a snowflake. After them, we glue small round curls to the lower sides of the wings and make double figures from patterns of white and yellow paper, and then glue them:
We twist two yellow and two white strips of paper in a spiral and glue them together.We give the yellow round curls the shape of drops and glue them on the lower side of the large wings, and on the upper side there are white curls:
Next, glue two small yellow curls to the uppermost sides of the wings and prepare eight others, incomplete, and of different sizes:
We glue them to the top, to the same yellow curls, and in order for each pattern to stick, you should glue it to a figure located close to it (the size and length of the curls are calculated in advance). Then we roll ten small white tight balls to decorate the underside of the wings, and also glue them:
During all the time we were working with the butterfly figure, we corrected the length of the wing walls many times, which was constantly changing as more and more new patterns were added to them. For the upper sides we roll up sixteen tight curls and, gluing them together, attach them to the wings; after that we make a leg - roll up a strip of black paper and glue it:
That's it - our butterfly figurine is ready. Now you can use the same technique to create two snowflakes, a red flower, a brown butterfly, a green figurine and an orange flower:
Having created nine figures, we finish work on the decorations and begin work on the garland that will hold them. The figures can either be tied to it with threads or glued with tape. Take a small sheet of A4 size paper, bend it across and glue the transverse ends:
You need to bend the sheet four times:
Draw two lines along the top and bottom, with a slight indentation:
Now we draw transverse lines, leaving the same distance between them. They must take turns passing through the upper and then through the lower lines, running along:
We erase the entire drawing with an eraser, leaving barely noticeable marks and cut with scissors along the transverse contours, first on one side:
And then on the other:
Lay out the sheet:
Now, using a long thin brush (or knitting needle), we open the sheet and give it a rounded tube shape:
Let's make a second tube like this:
We glue them together with tape and, stretching them, glue the garland in a visible place:
We attach all our decorations to it and that’s it - our New Year’s decoration is ready:
