Workshop of Santa Claus paper crafts. Crafts for the New Year's holiday

Let's see how you can create unique Christmas crafts. for a competition in school or kindergarten in the form of Santa Claus. I will also show you how to decorate gifts for the New Year with the symbol of Santa Claus. Let's start with gifts...

Santa Claus on a gift

How to do it yourself.

(simple options).

Here in the photo below we see a great New Year's decorations the most common gift wrappings made of gray wrapping paper.

For the first idea you will need:

• a round shape made of white cardboard, a piece of red cardboard,
• red pompom (or plain wadding + PVA glue + red gouache)
• a piece of white foam packaging (which is often put in boots in the store, or in boxes with appliances). Or (if you do not have such material) you can take white cardboard and glue it with cotton pads.)

On a white cardboard round eye shadow or blush draw spots on the cheeks, black beads-eyes with a marker. In a bowl, stir red gouache and PVA glue (a couple of drops of paint on a teaspoon of glue), dip a piece of cotton wool into this mixture. From this sticky red cotton we mold a ball with our hands - we dry it on a battery (it will dry overnight).

Cut out a triangle from red cardboard. We glue it on the edge of a white round (Santa Claus's forehead) - it is better to glue it dry, that is, use a glue stick or double-sided tape, since wet PVA glue will wet the cardboard and make it bend.

On top of the connecting line (between the cap and the head), we lay the “fur edging”, as I already said, it is better to cut it out of the foamed packaging material. Or glue the cardboard with cotton pads and cut out the edging of Santa Claus's hat from such “cotton-hairy paper”

And here two more ideas crafts-pendants in the form of Santa Claus - already from just cardboard ... and cardboard with paper molds for cupcakes.

Here are large packages with Santa Claus in large sizes.

You can even make a package yourself from a sheet gift paper. The template here is very simple. You can make such a drawing yourself with a pencil, cut it out, bend along the fold lines and it's ready. Beautiful box - glue the face and beard of Santa Claus to it and you're done.

You can do it yourself from cardboard (or from soft felt, or formiam as in the photo below) to make PACKAGING-POCKETS for gifts, decorated with Santa Claus appliqué on top.

Here is a diagram-drawing of such a pocket made of colored paper or cardboard. We bend along the lines, glue the sides and the container for sweets and chocolates is ready.

It remains only to glue the head of Santa Claus with a beard and a hat on top. Simple and fast, no complexity. You will enjoy making such quick pocket crafts with Santa Claus, a snowman, angels and other New Year's characters with your own hands.

Here is a soft felt or fleece pouch that is suitable for gifting a smart phone, or jewelry. It will be nice to receive such a gift, decorated manual labor and the imagination of the donor.

Santa Claus WITH CANDY
(just do it yourself).

Here's another new craft for this year. Santa Claus hides a candy in a bright wrapper in his tummy. A simple children's craft that you will quickly understand and can do with your own hands in one sitting.

As you can see (in the photo below), there is nothing complicated or tricky here. It’s just that Santa Claus’s tummy and back is a ONE PIECE - in shape it looks like a GAME EIGHT, which has a hole only in the upper turn of the number.

This "figure eight" is bent in half - and we get a tummy with a hole in the center in front and a closed back in the back. At the top we fix our halves with a drop of glue, or with a stapler or tape. And it remains for our Santa Claus to glue his head with a beard and legs-stand.

Santa Claus do it yourself

Craft in the technique of "spider line".

There is an article on our website where I show in great detail how to make such balls of glue threads and a small air balloon with my own hands. In this article, “Thread Balls and a Sea of ​​Crafts Using the Spider Web Technique,” ​​I posted a master class. Therefore, I will not explain in detail here, so as not to waste unnecessary words. Follow the link, it's all there.

And just look at the photo below and fall in love with these cute Christmas characters made from thread balls. Simple and fast. In one evening we make balls, in the second evening we glue them with colored paper parts - and a worthy craft is ready to go to the New Year's exhibition at a school or kindergarten.

You can not glue the balls with paper parts, but immediately put on such a cap on the top ball - where a face with a mustache and beard is already glued to the cone-cap.

In general, such caps made of cardboard (from the photo above) can be put on ordinary white balloons. And you get a quick craft on New Year in the form of Santa Claus. Such quick crafts are convenient. (By the way, the link has a lot of quick craft ideas for decorating the New Year's office).

Santa Claus with his own hands.

balloon craft

in papier-mâché technique.

Here you can make such a pot-bellied nosy - sweet and charming Santa Claus from the cheapest materials. PVA glue + paper white napkins + balloon ik + gouache for coloring.

What is the secret of the SIMPLICITY of this Santa Claus craft.

The papier-mâché technique is very simple. If you mix a paper napkin with PVA glue - mold something from this mass and dry it, we will get a dense, almost wooden, hard craft.

This principle of creating a durable material from fragile paper and liquid glue became the basis of the Papier-mâché technique.

Instead of white paper napkins, you can use a regular NEWSPAPER. But then it will be necessary to paint it on top with white paint (acrylic or gouache) before drawing Santa Claus on it.

What do we do.

Step 1 Let's buy a balloon with an elongated tail (that is, pear-shaped). We inflate it so that it retains its slightly elongated pear shape. Turn the ball upside down and insert it inside the vase (to make it more convenient to work with). You can even fix it with tape a little to this vase - so that it does not jump out of it.

Step 2 We tear white napkins into shreds (or leave them whole, as you prefer). We smear part of the ball with PVA glue - put a white napkin on this puddle. On top of the napkin, we again smear PVA glue with a wide brush and again put a napkin on this wet place. Thus, we glue the entire ball in several layers - generously pouring glue and generously laying layers of napkins. Leave it all to dry (overnight).

Note - you can glue the ball with newspaper, dry it and paint it in white paint. Or start the first layers from the newspaper. And the upper last layers should be made from a white napkin, then it will not be necessary to paint white.

Step 3 We crumple the napkins into large lumps - these will be the same. We also pour glue over it, also glue it with napkins, forming a wet papier-mâché crust. Let it dry too

Step 4 We take out the ball from the vase-pot on which it stood. We turn it upside down (we will cover this empty place that was in the vase with Santa Claus's hat, it will not be visible. With a marker on the dry round paper surface of the ball, draw the silhouette borders of all the elements of Santa Claus - a face with a nose, a beard, a fur coat. We decorate this gouache round coloring Do not forget to glue the legs

Note. For papier mache, you need a lot of PVA glue. If you buy it in the stationery department (where the glue is in small jars-tubes) you will overpay 5 times the cost. Better and cheaper to buy PVA glue in liter buckets in the construction departments of the store. For one liter of glue you will pay about 2 dollars. And such a bucket will be enough for you for a whole bunch of crafts. Any PVA glue with the inscription "universal" or "construction" is suitable for you. In composition, it is no different from the usual clerical PVA school glue. The manufacturer can be any. With this bucket, you will not only make Santa Claus out of papier-mâché, but also a snowman and a penguin (also based on balloon). Details in other articles on this site.

By the way, on the basis of the BALLOON, you can make the most different crafts with Santa Claus. You can decorate a ball pasted with newspaper with stripes of colored fringe. We buy rolls of colored crepe paper in stationery. we cut it into strips, cut them into a fringe, glue the BALL IN A CIRCLE with fringe strips. It turns out another version of Santa Claus crafts with his own hands - mischievous and furry.

Or you can decorate a balloon covered with a newspaper with a FLEECE WINDING - a very cozy and warm craft will turn out from a soft material.

We make our own Santa Claus

from stones and natural materials.

Ordinary stones - river small or large cobblestones can become the basis on which the New Year's fairy tale will sprout.

You can just find oval stable stones (or make them stable with plasticine). Cover the stones with white gouache (sprinkle with hairspray to fix the color and so that it does not stain your hands). Then, on a white background, draw all the lines of the future Santa Claus. Decorate with gouache each drawn sector. And then once again draw clear black boundaries between the elements of the picture - make the outlines with a black marker. Markers are great for drawing on stones. It is best to use a CD signing marker - it does not wash off and does not get your hands dirty.

On suitable flat pebbles, you can depict any new year story. Article-lesson on creating beautiful New Year's drawings is already on our website "Family Handful".

And from several stones (also painted with gouache) you can put together a whole plot application on a single background, cut out of plywood.

We buy a small sheet of plywood in a hardware store (or find a suitable one next to the entrance in a pile of garbage). Cut out a round piece. We tint with ink in the color of snow and the color of the sky. And against this background we lay out Santa Claus, his bag, his deer, his sleigh ... anything.

Please note that the stones perform only one part of the element - the rest are painted with paints, lined with twigs, ropes and other natural material.

It is not necessary to choose smooth rounded pebbles. The most uneven curved stones can work to your advantage. Stack them, try them on to each other and try to see the outlines of your future crafts in this styling. Who knows what masterpiece your little "rock garden" will give birth to on a piece of paper.

Also, shells can be used as a natural material for crafts in the form of Santa Claus. It will turn out interesting and beautiful.

You can invent your own New Year's pictures from magic pebbles. Do not forget to spray the craft with hairspray - this way it will become brighter and will not stain your hands with gouache, smear. Also, you can fashion some details of such a craft-panel from plasticine (it can also be covered with hairspray) ... or fashion from papier mache ( paper napkin mixed with PVA glue, see paragraph above in this article).

Craft Santa Claus

From plasticine.

From ordinary plasticine (or from polymer clay) you can also make a beautiful Santa Claus. The main thing is to work slowly and remember to wash your hands when moving from one color of plasticine to another. There we will get the pure colors of the details and the whole craft will look neat.

After making the craft, you need to dry it in a cool place and sprinkle with hairspray. This is necessary so that it ceases to be sticky and does not collect room dust. You can cover the craft with acrylic matte varnish with a soft brush. Acrylic lacquer for crafts is sold in stationery or craft stores.

Such lacquered, non-sticky plasticine figures are also good because they can be used inside small Snow capsules. Where will the foam snowball go. Capsules for plasticine Santa Claus can be made with your own hands - from transparent plastic bottles. Cut off the top and bottom from them and docked them together. Pour glitter for nails, sequins or foam balls inside or cut fluff from pillows with scissors - the fluff will slowly settle creating the illusion of snowfall.

Can do flat crafts from plasticine. Roll out colored plasticine with a rolling pin on the table. A wooden rolling pin is not suitable - it leaves rough marks on the plasticine. As a smooth rolling pin, a glass round bottle or can of any deodorant is suitable.

We put a stencil image on the rolled out layer of plasticine (details of Santa Claus, or his clothes). Circle with a sharp object. Remove the stencil and cut with scissors along the scratched lines. We get planar details from which it is possible to fold a plasticine graphic application. Or make such a craft to decorate the kitchen in new year style(as in the photo below).

You can learn ideas for plasticine crafts in the form of Santa Claus from New Year's cakes decorated with mastic characters. Santa Claus is often molded from sweet confectionery mastic from different angles. Google New Year's cakes and you will find many ideas for plasticine New Year's heroes.

You can find even more New Year's plasticine ideas for children's crafts in the classroom and at home in a special article on our website.

Santa Claus do it yourself

FROM CONES.

Pine and spruce cones can also be painted with gouache (like the stones from the paragraph above). And in a painted form, the bump immediately becomes interesting basis for New Year's crafts in the form of Santa Claus. We insert button beads, a fluffy dusting duster dyed with white gouache becomes a lush beard. Cut out a hat from a piece of felt.

Also in the company of Santa Claus you can make a deer with your own hands (also from cones) (with horns from fluffy wire), a snowman, a penguin in a felt scarf, and a green Christmas tree cone decorated with beads and flowers cut out of lace.

Other bright crafts-toys from pine and spruce cones are collected in a large article with photos.

Volumetric Santa Claus

From modular origami.

If you know how to fold the Origami module. Then it doesn’t cost you anything to create such a pot-bellied Santa Claus. YouTube is full of videos that will teach you how to fold a triangular origami paper module in 2 minutes. For 2 pm make yourself a bunch of modules (family will help), and on the third evening fold Santa Claus. Assembly takes place without glue. Each module is nested into each other - like a groove in a groove.

green fir tree also consists of a modular origami. And you can make a snowman and a deer, if you think with your head ...

Santa Claus do it yourself

FROM PAPER CONES.

We all know how to make paper cones - like bags for seeds. We need a semicircle - which we roll into a bag and glue the side seam of the bag with glue (or not with glue, but with a stapler).

Or paper latches can be provided on the bag - cuts and ears that fit into each other. On the template below, we see that we have an incision on the left (a short dotted line), and a protruding eyelet on the right (along the edge of the hem of the fur coat). We cut out such a template (diagram below), color it and connect it into a bag - inserting the eyelet into the cut (or you can simply fix everything with glue without any ears).

Santa Claus is easy and quick to make based on a regular cone. Here below I give big schemes for large figurines. life size The scheme corresponds to the A3 format - it's like two landscape pages. Printing on the printer will not work - you need to go to the print center. But the craft will be large, pleasant in size.

Here is another large template for Santa Claus paper crafts - it is also A3 - print in the center of the printout.

But this template is smaller - if you want, you can also increase it to a large size. Each craft is beautiful - agree. So you can imagine how Grandfather Frost proudly stands on the windowsill and pleases the eye. Great craft - elegant and simple.

Children's craft Santa Claus

From toilet paper rolls.

Cardboard rolls are great for kids crafts. Here in the photo below we see how you can beat the image of Santa Claus based on this “toilet-roll” form.

Elements can be made from paper, felt, cotton wool, formiam, fabric or knitted socks.

Santa Claus and dishes

(pots, cups, plates).

And in this section of the article I want to show how to do it yourself original craft from non-standard material.

From flower pots you can collect Santa Claus. We will make a beard for such a grandfather from gypsum plaster. You can buy at a hardware store gypsum plaster(it is cheap in small packaging for a pound you can take). We dilute the gypsum mixture with water to a thick porridge. And quickly, until it thickens and dries, we sculpt a beard to Santa Claus. Pots can also be coated with gypsum porridge, in those places where we depict fluffy fur or snow. If sprinkled on top sequins(with nail powder) it turns out that snowy places sparkle in the sun.

Or here are New Year's crafts from disposable colored cups. Here the cups are stacked in a circle on the floor (glue the round dance with hot glue from a gun). Then, on a round dance, we make the second tier-floor, then the third - they themselves will be rounded into a spherical shape (because the cups at the bottom are narrower than at the edge). We make one ball for the belly and one ball for the head of Santa Claus. From paper and fabric we make mittens, a belt, eyes, a mustache, a hat.

And we begin to make a green Christmas tree from cups according to the principle of a round dance. But inside it we put a cone of paper. And we still attach the cups along the upper floors to the walls of this paper cone.

From the remaining red cups and toilet paper sleeves, you can make cute Frosts with a cotton beard.

And disposable flat plates can be a source of such children's crafts. We put beige paper on the bottom of the plate (this will be the background of the face). Without a beige or pink background (just on a pale plate) it will be ugly.

Craft Santa Claus

From felt and formiam.

Now with the sale a new ornamental material has appeared - formiam. This brainchild of modern technology is very suitable for making voluminous puffy crafts that are well fastened together with hot glue. Here in the photo below you see Santa Claus crafts made from formim (porous thick material).

But crafts made of felt will still be more durable. And warmer to the touch. Kinder, closer.

You can make applications of Santa Claus on a round ball out of felt - you get a pendant toy for a Christmas tree.

Pay attention to how the appliqué details are fastened in the photo below - with rare stitches, details are stuck here (the beard and mustache are held on 4-5 stitches).

If you make a HOOP out of cardboard, wrap it with a cloth and decorate the front with a figure of Santa Claus, then we will get a headdress for the new year. It can be put on for a festive dinner for children, or worn right over a hat on the street - delighting passers-by with its New Year's look.

In addition to hard felt, you can use SOFT FLEECE. This is the material from which hoodies and hoodies are sewn. It is suitable for sewing soft toys in the form of Santa Claus or puffy pillows (as in the photo below).

But Santa Claus, where there are FELT (wool for felting) - in the left photo below. As well as a figure of Santa Claus made of a ball of red thread and a piece of white sentipon and a felt hat. The face can be made from a tennis ball tinted in beige.

Knitted Santa Claus.

And New Year's Santa Claus can be crocheted or knitted from threads. Below, for inspiration, I posted a few photo samples of such crafts with my own hands.

You can crochet just a flat figurine. Use it as an applique for a craft, or a toy pendant for a Christmas tree.

You can make a beard from cut bundles of threads (fluffy like a real one) Or simply tie it with a wedge (like a knitting process).

And here is an example of Santa Claus knitted on knitting needles with his own hands. Choose your favorite knitting method and start making a real surprise for the whole family with your own hands. Such christmas toy will accompany your holiday every year, like a tradition, like a family heirloom, made by mom's favorite hands.

These are ideas on the theme of Santa Claus with your own hands - from everything - from paper to knitting. Now you will definitely make yourself a magical Santa Claus who will fulfill your wishes this year. Because you deserve it. Because you are good.

There is no doubt that Santa Claus - main character new year celebrations. It is his miracles and gifts that children are waiting for, they send letters, postcards, and under the Christmas tree for a fairy-tale wizard, a response is often hidden. children's gift- New Year's craft. Santa Claus himself often becomes a character embodied in various types creativity.

DIY origami

A person who is fond of origami will not have questions about how to make small paper figures in the form of Santa Claus. Choosing among the proposed schemes the simplest and most understandable option, make Christmas figurine even an inexperienced person in this type of creativity can make paper out of paper. Santa Claus, made with his own hands from a small piece of colored paper, will be an excellent addition to the main gift or postcard, and will also be a wonderful sign of attention.

Felt crafts

Felt is a very practical and convenient material for creativity. Felt toys are not only colorful and pleasant to the touch: due to the fact that the details of the pattern can not only be sewn on, but also glued to each other using hot glue or a glue stick, the creation is also suitable for children.

In order to make felt Santa Claus with your own hands, you will need:

• red felt:
• flesh-colored felt;
• white felt;
• floss white;
• needle;
• synthetic winterizer or cotton wool;
• pencil;
• scissors.

Progress (step by step):

• Print or redraw the product pattern on paper, cut out the details.
• Bend the red felt in half, use a pencil to transfer the largest detail of the pattern (in the form of a drop) onto it and cut it out. Sew both parts of the part together, leaving a centimeter segment unsewn. Through the resulting hole, fill the product with padding polyester or cotton wool (for convenience, you can use a pencil), and then sew up the hole.
• From flesh-colored felt, cut 1 piece in the form of an oval. This is the face of the future figurine. After placing the part in the desired place, attach white felt parts on top of it: a beard and a cap frill. The frill should be stitched around the entire perimeter, and the beard should be sewn only in the place of its contact with the face of the figure.
• Cut out the remaining details from white felt: mustache and pompom hats (2 pcs.). Sew the mustache over the beard, sewing the detail along the top edge only.
• Cut out a small circle (nose) from body felt and sew it over the mustache.
• Insert the end of the Santa Claus hat between the two parts of the pompom and sew them together.
• Embroider or draw eyes. Fasten the thread in the form of a loop.

Various decorative elements will decorate and diversify the craft. Santa Claus can be made not only in the traditional red and white colors, but also have a blue or green suit.

bottle decoration

It's no secret that the most versatile New Year's gift for people not in a close circle of communication is champagne (or other alcohol) and chocolate (or sweets). The original Santa Claus, hand-sewn from colorful materials, will make the gift unusual and memorable.

Making crafts from bottles is also suitable for younger kindergarten groups: for this, it is enough to fill transparent bottles with red paper, glue a cotton beard and plastic eyes on top and complete the image of the main New Year's wizard with a red sock or paper cap imitating the character's hat.

Craft from cotton pads

Cotton pads and cotton wool are the easiest material to work in kindergarten. Children can stick cotton pads (or balls) on templates prepared in advance by adults or make crafts exclusively with their own hands, first painting it and then decorating it with cotton wool details. These can be snowflakes cut out by a figured hole punch, Father Frost's wadded beard, as well as details of his costume.

Identical templates decorated with details from cotton pads and cotton wool, in accordance with the tastes and skills of each child, will be wonderful and different gifts that children can take home and give to their loved ones.

For creativity in older groups of kindergarten, more painstaking and complex work is suitable - creating crafts from cotton buds. Sticks fastened with glue will be a good building material for creating fabulous winter landscapes.

Santa Claus from plasticine

For children of older groups of kindergarten, as well as junior schoolchildren modeling from plasticine will become simple. Depending on the ability of the child, you can choose step by step instructions products of varying degrees of complexity: from the simplest to figurines with big amount small details.

Santa Claus from plasticine will become the main character of fabulous winter scenes and New Year's stories.

Figures from threads

Creating a fairy-tale character from woolen threads is a laborious process that requires not so much special needlework skills as it takes a lot of time and painstaking work. However, the resulting figurines have a very "homey" feel to them, evoking a sense of cosiness and warmth.

Santa Claus from paper

Paper crafts are extremely diverse not only in type, but also in the types of techniques used in the process of their creation. Paper of only two colors (green and red), rolled and fixed in the form of cones and supplemented with small details (a face with a beard, Christmas balls) will be the basis for creating a beautiful
