9 creative ways to create an unusual Christmas tree for the New Year
Artificial or living tree, garlands, tinsel - these habitual attributes of the New Year are fed up with the order. In this case, a Christmas tree made of non-standard materials will help create the atmosphere of a New Year's fairy tale in the apartment. At the same time, the art object will become a creative and exclusive decoration of the home, and its manufacture itself will bring the joy of creativity and give a festive mood.
Recycled Plastic Bottle Christmas Tree
To create a designer Christmas tree, any material, even plastic bottles, is suitable. They must be of different sizes. The basis for the Christmas tree will be any pipe or stick of the desired length and a diameter slightly smaller than the neck of the bottle. If the plastic is transparent, spray paint will be needed to stain the product. At the bottoms we cut the bottoms - we do not need them, but leave the largest for the stand. We cut our blanks vertically up to the neck into ribbons about 2 cm wide. We create “needles” on them - for this, we make cuts on the strips on both sides at an angle of half a centimeter. We bend the "Needles" in different directions to give splendor to the branches. We assemble a Christmas tree - we fasten the base to the bottom left, we place billets of a larger diameter from below, the smallest from above. We straighten the “branches” and decorate them with toys.
Cardboard Christmas tree
Perfectly decorate the interior of the Christmas tree made of cardboard, which is very simple to perform. We need cardboard of any thickness, from which we cut blanks according to the template. Christmas tree legs can be of different shapes, it all depends on the creator’s imagination. We connect the flat parts cut out of cardboard crosswise, for this we cut one part from the top to the middle, and the other from the bottom. You can make a Christmas tree of four blanks, then it will be more magnificent. We decorate the tree at will - we paste over with colored paper or paint with paints.
Christmas tree from books
Reading enthusiasts will love the New Year’s beauty made of books. In this case, the publication does not have to be spoiled. You just need to put your favorite books in a pyramid with bindings out. The size of the creative Christmas tree will depend on the number of copies of the home library. A backlit garland will be a wonderful decoration for a New Year's art object.
Christmas tree made of boards and planks
From boards and wooden planks, a Christmas tree can be made in two versions: flat and three-dimensional. For a flat, you need boards or slats of the same width, but different lengths. We knock together the blanks in the form of a cone-shaped structure, decorate with garlands and toys. Such a tree is well suited for decorating the wall. Volumetric design is also simple to manufacture. On an iron pin that serves as the trunk of a Christmas tree, we string thin boards or planks of different sizes, maintaining the geometry of the cone. Decorating such a Christmas tree is very easy - you can glue candles or other decor on the “branches” with tape.
Christmas tree hanger
Design Christmas decoration of the interior can be created from simple hangers - metal or plastic. For convenience, we assemble the design on the floor, it is better to start from the top of the head and use one hanger. We increase their number every two tiers, while fastening with wire. We hang the resulting triangular frame on the wall and decorate it with Christmas balls, garlands.
Christmas tree from garlands
A Christmas tree made of garlands looks very impressive - an unusual decoration can be created in a matter of minutes and thereby easily decorate the wall. The garland should be fixed on the wall in a zigzag pattern in the shape of a Christmas tree with transparent clips and, if desired, decorated with balls.
Christmas tree print or panel
A variant of a flat design can be a screen or a panel with an image of a Christmas tree. We draw the New Year print ourselves or with the children or we carry it out in the form of applique, stencil, collage. If there is no artistic ability or time - you can buy ready-made. We decorate their favorite screen or master panels. To do this, place a print on the base, if desired, the panel can be framed.
Christmas tree upside down
The tree is gaining more and more popularity upside down - a suspended forest beauty does not take up much space and looks more than original. It is important to securely fix the stylish decoration in the center of the ceiling or in the corner zone with strong hooks.
Christmas tree made of fruits and vegetables
Material for creating an original New Year's art object can also be food. A tree of fruits and vegetables can take a place on the holiday table or become an unforgettable gift. To make it, you will need fruits: pineapple, tangerines, apples, kiwi, grapes.
Peeled fruits are cut into small cubes, tangerines are divided into slices. The basis for the Christmas tree is an apple. On the one hand we cut it for stability, on the other we make a hole for the “trunk” - carrots. We fix the construction with toothpicks. We put the skewers into the apple and carrot in free form, string the prepared fruits on them. For decoration, you can use curly marmalade.
