Our Christmas tree
Here it is, our Christmas tree
Here it is, our Christmas tree,
In the brilliance of radiant lights!
She seems more beautiful than everyone else
Everything is greener and lush.
A fairy tale hides in the greenery:
White swan floats
The bunny slides on a sled
The squirrel gnaws nuts.
Here it is, our Christmas tree,
In the brilliance of radiant lights!
We are all dancing for joy
On New Year's Day under it!

Purpose: The New Year tree is an integral attribute of the New Year and Christmas celebrations.
Goals: Making spruce for the New Year and Christmas from plastic bags.
Tasks:
- teach how to cut bags into a long ribbon and make pom-poms;
- development of creative abilities;
- fostering interest in making crafts with your own hands.

For work we need following materials and tools:


- 3-4 plastic bags of different colors;

5-6 bags of green and one white;
- Sheet of cardboard 30*30;
- Cardboard;
- Threads with a needle;
- Glue moment crystal
-Pencil, ruler, compass, scissors;

Work progress:

In this case, for work, I found green bags that are super durable. They have welded side seams. Previously, I used “T-shirt” type packaging bags for work.
Cut off the handles and bottom of the bag. It turns out to be a pipe.


We fold it almost in half (one fold does not reach the other 15-20 mm), bend it several more times depending on the width of the package.


Cut with fringe, strip width 5 mm


We straighten the twisted strips, but not completely (the long ones get tangled, become electrified and then fall under the blade of the scissors).
Straighten along the fold index finger left hand.


You can use a ruler.


Cut off the first strip under acute angle. Next we cut from undercut to undercut. We do it very carefully; in case of a mistake, it turns out not a ribbon, but rings.


We wind the ribbons onto balls.
We make double blanks from cardboard with a fold of 25 and 20 mm wide


Making green pom-poms: * 10 turns with green ribbon, 3 turns with white ribbon*...130 turns in total.
Using a 4-fold thread, we tightly tie the winding towards the fold of the cardboard.


We insert the blade of the scissors between the layers of cardboard and cut the winding.


Fluff the pompom and even it out a little with scissors.


For spruce 350 mm high, prepare:
on cardboard there are 25-17 green pompoms, 3 colored;
narrow the cardboard by 2-3 mm - 13 green pompoms, 3 colored ones;
on cardboard there are 20-10 green pompoms, 2 colored ones;
narrow the cardboard by 2-3 mm - 9 green pompoms, 1 colored one;
for the top of the head 1 two-color pompom.


Glue 1/4 of a circle with a radius of 300 mm into a cone. For reliability, you can stitch or staple.
We start gluing with large pompoms. The first row of pompoms is 10 green.


Glue the second row - between 7 green ones, 3 colored ones.
The third row of 8 green pompoms is slightly smaller in size.


Fourth row: 5 green, 3 colored.
Fifth row 6 green pompoms from cardboard 20mm wide.


Sixth row: 4 green, 2 colored.
Next, glue small pom-poms to the top of the head.


Glue the top of the head.
The Christmas tree is ready.


I wish you success in your creativity.

THIS IS THIS" FLOWER SANDBOX"I GOT IT.


Why are these so good? flowers: they do not fade in the sun, they are not afraid of water, do not require large financial investments, and look bright and original.

For flower making, we will need bags of different colors.


As well as scissors, thick thread and an object on which we will wind our flowers.

The larger the item, the larger the flowers.


Now that we have prepared everything, let's get to work.

We cut our strip bags.


We wrap strips around the item you have prepared. (I have this notepad).The longer the strip, the more magnificent it will be flower.


We remove our workpiece and rewind it in the middle with thread.


Of course, we can leave it like that and we’ll get a bow, but we’ll move on. Straightening the petals flower and you get one flower, and if you cut the ends, it will be completely different flower.



And here you can fantasize:glue a button in the middle or make a stem out of wire, etc.

Of multi-colored plastic bags You can make very interesting and beautiful crafts for your home and garden. Crafts are made very simply, but whole masterpieces come out of them, and you will also get great pleasure from the work done. We already have interesting ones on our website and you should definitely check them out too.
Today we will look at interesting master class on making chicken from plastic bags, the author of this tutorial is Natalya Semyonova. If you make a chicken from multi-colored bags, then you will get it bright, beautiful and with luxurious plumage.
Natalya saw a photo of this cute chicken on the Internet and immediately got the idea to create exactly the same one. There were no explanations on how to make chicken, so I had to come up with everything myself. Natalya hopes that her master class will be useful to someone. But if you find another way to make it, we will be glad if you share it with us.

To make chicken we need:
* Plastic bags.
* Thick wire.
* Thin wire.
* Pen or pencil.
* Sheet A 4 - 2 pcs.
* Thermal gun.

Method for making chicken:
We’ll make a sketch on two sheets of A 4 and then bend the frame from thick wire using it. We make the frame approximately, then when you create volume for it, all the flaws will be covered.

She moved her paws to the sides so that in the end they would not be from the same point.

Natalya dreamed of making a chicken from colored bags, but she only came across rustling ones, and they wouldn’t look very good. Therefore, I decided to make soft, dense bags from what I had (the black one is thinner), from which we can make a pestle chicken))).
We cut strips from the bags, 3 cm strips will be needed on the body, and 2 cm on the head. The strips also need to be cut across to make a long ribbon. It didn’t take a lot of bags to make the chicken, 3-4 pieces of each color. It also depends on the tightness of the parts.

Now we take a thin wire and start assembling a ribbon on it, we should get a ruffle like in the photo.

The volume of the chicken is made of bags, we fix it with tape or some kind of synthetic tape. We start adding volume to the chicken from the tail. We put a corner of the bag on the tail and fasten it with tape. We braid five braids from bags, securing the edges with a stapler. Now we glue the little frills to the bag on the tail. glue gun.
The chicken will turn out to be approximately the size of a regular chicken, it all depends on the frame, which one you draw, that’s what you’ll get. You can stuff the chicken with unnecessary rags or paper, but if you are making it for the street, then stuff it with plastic bags, otherwise everything inside will rot. It is best to glue the finished frills with a glue gun.

Gradually we reach the breast.

We shape the breast from bottom to top like a frill.

If we do not change the length of the ribbons, then we will end up with a plump breast.

We take the wire and make paws from it.

We screw it onto the base, but it doesn’t turn out very securely, so we fill it with hot glue.

We trace the head on plastic (you can take a stand for hot food), draw a comb, beak, beard and cut it out with an allowance of 0.5 cm. We fix it with a glue gun (a super thing, after all), it’s better to paint it before fixing it.

We are finishing the final touches - adding ruffles to the head. We will make the eyes from the buttons on the leg, paint them with orange nail polish and draw the eyes with a black permanent marker. We wrap the legs with tape cut from the packaging. The chicken from the plastic bags is ready.

Manufacturing funny toys« rustlers» We have been teaching our students for more than 12 years.

The idea of ​​converting polyethylene packages into fun crafts was the beginning of long-term environmental project: "I can toys trash turn» .

To support our children’s interest in this topic, we have prepared advisory materials for them parents: « Merry« rustling creatures» or what to do with a child on a day off.” Now the mothers and fathers of our next pupils have been full participants in this project for several years.

Making such work for a child This: development fine motor skills, attention, thinking; nurturing perseverance, accuracy, and the ability to bring work started to its logical conclusion; it's always positive emotions, flights of fancy, aesthetic pleasure and pride from the knowledge that these packages could pollute our city, and we, like real wizards, turn them into beauty.

Stages of magical transformation:

1. Cut out several pairs of rings of different sizes from cardboard. Place the rings of each pair one on top of the other.

2. Made of polyethylene packages cut out strips of different widths. We will wrap the rings folded in pairs with these strips until the ribbons fill the hole in the ring. Therefore, it is better to cut narrow strips for small rings, and wide ones for large ones.



3. Then we cut the resulting polyethylene winding along the edge of the ring with scissors and pull the product along the formed groove with a strong thread. Let's remove the cardboards. (Pompoms are made from wool threads using exactly the same principle).

4. Before us is a finished pom-pom - « rustle» . It can serve on its own toy, but you don’t have to stop there and give free rein to your imagination

Of multi-colored « rustlers» , various sizes, you can collect various funny toys. « Rustlers» fastened together with thread or wire. They are complemented small details and elements made of paper, fabric, natural material, etc. And then a fluffy rabbit with rustling fur, funny snowman,birds, a bright flower or a cute snake.



Such funny toys made with their own hands, children are happy to give to friends for their birthdays, to their mother on March 8th, to decorate Christmas tree, group or room at home and used in games.

There probably isn't a person who doesn't use packages. But few people know that they make various cool trinkets. It’s very easy to make crafts from plastic bags with your own hands, and plus you won’t incur additional costs.

You can create tricks from plastic bags with your own hands quite quickly. Moreover, you will not incur any special costs or efforts when making trinkets.

Step-by-step instructions for making a flower:

It is necessary to fold the polyethylene so that it becomes a square. Next, cut the coals so that you get petals. The next thing you need to do is fasten all the pieces together with wire. Instead of the middle, use a bead or a beautiful button.

All you need is a piercing and bags. First, twist the wire into a circle and secure it well. Next, you need to tie the cut strips around the frame. It is advisable to attach more of these strips, then the wreath will be thicker and brighter. You can add other trinkets: an artificial skull, rubber spiders, etc.

A few examples of photos on how you can diversify your Halloween wreath:

Thanks to this technology, you can quickly and easily make beautiful wreaths from bags for Christmas or Easter with your own hands. It all depends on how you want the wreath on your door to look. We present to your attention a video in which you can learn in detail what needs to be done and why.

To work you will need:

  • Packages, preferably green.
  • Scissors. Manicures are possible.
  • Beads for the future foundation.
  • Needle and thread.
  • Compass.

The technology for making a Christmas tree from plastic bags is quite simple:

  1. First, make some preparations. It is necessary to cut circles from the bags. You will need to prepare circles of different diameters, since several of them will go to the top and middle of the tree, and the larger ones will go to the bottom.
  2. It is advisable to very carefully stretch the edges of your circles a little. Do this very slowly so as not to damage the workpiece.
  3. Take two identical circles and glue them together. By the way, you need to insert another circle between them, but with a smaller diameter. Having completed this process with all the blanks, you can begin assembling our Christmas tree.
  4. The rings need to be folded from top to bottom, from the largest to the smaller ones.
  5. We begin to assemble our tree as follows: we put a circle on a needle, and then a bead, then everything again and so on until the very top. Instead of the top, you can use beads or some other decoration that you like best.

In the photo the Christmas tree looks like this:

Christmas tree made from bags

You must have:

  1. Multi-colored, bright bags. Preferably 3-5 shades.
  2. There are two types of wire: thick and thinner.
  3. Sheet of paper – 2 pcs. A pen or pencil to draw a sketch.
  4. Thermal gun.

The manufacturing process begins with a drawn frame of the cockerel’s body, along which we will need to bend the body of our figurine using thick wire. Next, you need to cut strips from the bags, preferably 3 cm long for the sheepskin coat and 2 cm long for the head. We take a wire that is thinner and put our blanks on it. Thus, we should have an accordion. We recommend tying the strips tightly, so the finished toy will look more beautiful.

We need to give the rooster volume. For this you can use cotton wool or rags, whatever you like. Having wrapped the fillings and the frame with tape, we proceed to decorating the toy with our colored accordions. It is advisable to attach them using a heat gun. We do everything gradually, there is no need to rush. The comb and mouth can be cut out of plastic or cardboard, at your discretion. When you completely cover the body with accordions, do not forget about the eyes for the animal. These can be simple beads. That's all, the cockerel is ready.

You can make a jump rope for your child from plastic bags with your own hands. You will need to carefully cut thin strips and tie them together. In place of the handles, you can wrap electrical tape or adhesive tape.

There is also a technology for knitting polyethylene, which can be used to make unique handbags or even carpets. It all depends on desire. You can make different pom-poms.

And finally, I would like to note that handmade crafts made from plastic bags will work well as a gift for your children or friends. Don't be afraid to learn something new.

We hope, thanks to our article and master classes, you will soon have at least one polyethylene toy that you made yourself.
