Original snowflake

The most common decoration for the New Year holiday are snowflakes. We hang them on the Christmas tree, draw or sculpt them on the windows, and make garlands out of them. Why not go beyond the usual boundaries and create wonderful winter compositions using the quilling technique as a basis?! Put in a little effort and you will have beautiful openwork snowflakes at home, which you can also give to friends as souvenirs.

To create a New Year's snowflake you will need:

• special paper for quilling;
• scissors;
• ruler;
• stationery knife;
• toothpick.

Step 1. Cut strips of quilling paper 25-27 mm long and 3-5 mm wide.

Step 2. Take a toothpick - it will be your main tool in this work. Cut off the sharp tip on one side and use a stationery knife to make a small incision - about 1 cm.

Step 3. Insert the first strip of paper into the cut and slowly twist it into a spiral. Make sure that the paper is curled and not just a toothpick. There is no need to rush in this matter, because then the craft may not work out.

Step 4. The finished spiral must be removed from the toothpick and placed on a flat surface so that it unwinds slightly.

Step 5. Apply a little glue to the end of the strip and glue the spiral.

Step 6. To make one snowflake, you must use the same principle to make several similar curls of different shapes and sizes.

Step 7 Fold the resulting spirals into a snowflake, carefully gluing each piece.

Volumetric Christmas tree

This bright New Year's composition can be an excellent table decoration, as well as a wonderful gift for a loved one, colleague or relative.

To create a voluminous Christmas tree you will need:

• scissors;
• quilling paper;
• ruler-pattern with circles of different diameters;
• PVA glue;
• toothpick;
• tweezers.

If you don't have a quilling tool, a regular toothpick with a cut end can easily replace it.

Step 1. To work, take special green paper and cut it into several dozen strips 3 mm wide, and also cut brown paper into strips 7 mm wide.

Step 2. Brown stripes need to be wound into loose curls, for example onto a regular marker. Lubricate their ends with glue and glue them. Brown “barrels” are ready!

Step 3. Now you need to make green blanks. Wrap the paper around an awl (toothpick) and insert it into a size 16 ruler. Let it run free. To remove a curl from a ruler, you need to insert a toothpick into the center, slightly move it to the center and remove it.

Step 4. Glue the end of the spiral with PVA glue. Squeeze the curl slightly so that it takes the shape of a droplet. Prepare 10 of these droplets. Wrap each curl with a white strip of the same width and glue it. This is the first row of your Christmas tree.

Step 5. We make the second row using the same principle, only insert it into the circle numbered 15. Twist about 10 such curls. Glue the first two rows as shown in the photo.

Step 6. Now make spirals for the third row by inserting them into hole number 14. Glue them.

Step 7 For the fourth row you will need a circle of size 13. The same size must be taken for the 5th and 6th rows. Carefully glue all the parts to each other, as can be seen in the photo. Glue another “drop” onto the top. Decorate the Christmas tree with beads and it is ready!

Triangle shape. First of all, make the “Drop” part, then grab the corner and flatten the base of the triangle.
Arrow shape. Twist the triangle piece, and then use your index finger to press the middle of the short side inward.
Crescent shape. This part is made almost like the “Eye” blank, only in a curved shape. The corners of the part are pinched with a shift, and not opposite each other.

Open forms:
"Heart." Fold the strip in the middle. Bend both free halves inward.
"Horns". Fold the strip in the middle. Twist both halves outward.
"Curl". Mark the middle of the strip, but do not fold it. Twist the ends towards the middle, but in different directions.
