DIY hanging tree

It's hard to imagine the New Year holidays without an elegant tree. She is both the hero of the occasion and a unique element of festive decor. So why not create a creative Christmas tree with your own hands that will delight the owners and surprise the guests at home. The ideal option is a suspended structure. Such decoration will not take up much space and will add a touch of magic to your home.

Lightness of fringe

A fringed Christmas tree is a light, charming interior detail. Making such a product with your own hands is not difficult. To make a Christmas tree you will need:

1. Chinese wooden sticks or skewers for mini-kebabs.
2. Green fringe 15-20 cm wide.
3. Wire.
4. Cardboard or paper.
5. Pompons or a garland of them.
6. Large line.
7. Hot glue (gun).
8. Scissors.

Prepare five wooden sticks for the base. The size should vary to create a Christmas tree effect. For example, 10 cm, 20 cm, 30 cm, 40 cm and 50 cm. The fringe is cut into the same lengths.

Important! In order for the product to be neat, it is necessary to make allowances of 0.5 cm on the fringe.

The fringe tape is secured to sticks using a glue gun. A thin wire is fixed on the largest link of the tree, so that the free edges are the same. Next, we secure each tier of the tree by crossing the wire. We roll the remaining ends into a ring - this is the attachment point of the suspended structure. It turns out to be a fantasy frame of a Christmas tree.

All that remains is to decorate with pom-poms. You can use other decorative elements: tinsel, rain.

Christmas trees made from popsicle sticks

These crafts can be used as decorations for the Christmas tree or as independent decor. So, to create mini Christmas trees you will need:

• popsicle sticks;
• decor (stars, pompoms, rhinestones);
• rope;
• ruler;
• "glue gun";
• gouache paints.

The sticks need to be painted. This is a creative process, so you can paint the elements as you wish. Leave until completely dry. The sticks are cut along the edges so that each subsequent one is 1-2 cm shorter.

The cut elements are glued onto one of the sticks to form a pyramid-shaped tree. A loop is made from a rope and attached to the resulting structure with hot glue. The frame is ready, all that remains is to decorate. To do this, decorative elements are glued onto horizontal sticks.

Thus, you can create a whole garland of floating trees.

Aerial balloon design

Such an element of New Year's decor will become a decoration that will celebrate the creativity and creative nature of the creator. To create such a “flying” Christmas tree you need to prepare:

• Christmas balls;
• a metal grid in the shape of a circle, the diameter depends on the expected size of the product;
• a chain with small links;
• carbine;
• fishing line;
• scissors.

The chain is used to make a hanger for the grille. To do this, it is divided into 4 equal segments. All edges are connected using a carabiner; the structure will be attached to the ceiling.

The formation of the Christmas tree occurs according to the principle of a spiral, starting from the top. Christmas balls are secured using fishing line, varying its length from short to long.

Important! It is necessary to increase the length of the fishing line by a fixed length.This is necessary so that the tree has a clear, recognizable shape.

The result is a mobile made of balls.

Hanging spruce from cones

This option is quite simple to implement, so you can involve children in the process. Required materials and equipment:

1. Colored cardboard, you can use thin plastic.
2. Circle template.
3. Pencil.
4. Transparent tape.
5. Nylon threads.
6. Scissors.
7. "Gypsy" needle.

Using a template, draw circles on cardboard. Then the parts are carefully cut out.

Life hack: you can use a plate or a dish cover as a template. The diameter of the circle may be the same for all parts or slightly different. Cut out a sector of the circle equal to one quarter. Glue the part with tape, forming a cone. You will need 3 elements.

Cones are strung on a thread. Each part is fixed using knots that are made before and after the part.

The product can be decorated with decorative elements, for example, rhinestones or pompoms. Using several elements you can create a garland of such cone-shaped fir trees. To do this, several elements are fixed to the rail. In this case, it is better to leave the length of the rope different to create a random effect.

Spiral Christmas tree

Depending on the type of beads, the size of the spruce may vary. So, for example, if you use beads you can get stylish earrings or a pendant. It is recommended to use large beads for an element of New Year's decor.

To create a “spiral” you will need dense wire, with a cross-sectional diameter that matches the hole in the bead, and wire cutters.

Cut the wire and give it a spiral shape. To facilitate the process, you can use a cone on which the wire is wound, like a form.At the top of the improvised Christmas tree, a fastening ring is formed using pliers. Beads are strung on the wire in the desired order. The end is fixed by bending the wire into a hook.

By using your imagination, you can create a truly unique decorative element. New Year is a time of miracles and magic. It’s worth letting a miracle in the door, and small decorative elements will help you immerse yourself in a holiday fairy tale.
