New Year's crafts of angels with their own hands. How to make a Christmas angel out of paper

Christmas is one of the most beautiful holidays that many people associate with angels. It is understandable, Christmas falls at the end of Lent, according to Christian history, Jesus Christ was born on this day, who later took upon himself all human sins and ascended to heaven. His helpers are angels descending from the bosom of heaven.
It is believed that each of the people has his own angel, guarding and protecting him. It is customary to give puppet angels on Christmas as a talisman. They decorate Christmas tree, they are placed on the windowsill or seated on a souvenir shelf. A voluminous angel can be made even by a child. Detailed master class and examples of work in the article below.

Christmas angel - ideal figure, which is suitable as a gift or crafts for school and kindergarten. Even a three-year-old child can do it. Pre-made templates, embellishments and bonding material, with our step by step instructions help in this matter.

from paper

The easiest way to make a three-dimensional angel is to make it on paper. Cut it out according to the proposed template and fasten it at the cut point.

It is also permissible to draw and cut out a heavenly messenger on paper. But in order for the angel to be voluminous, it must be made from several parts, glued together or fixed in places with carved fasteners, as in the photo below. If desired, stencils can be made in color.

from felt

Such a working material as felt has a dense base. It is quite suitable for making an angel, which has a place on a Christmas tree or windowsill. Stock up on a few pieces of colored felt and use the template below. First, cut out the finished figures from paper, then transfer them to the felt, circle them with a pencil, cut them out and sew them along the contour.

from quilling

An angel is drawn in almost all images with golden color hair, it suggests the purity of creation. And, if you look closely, the hair of the heavenly messenger curls into curls. You can make a curly angel with your own hands, the quilling technique will help us with this, which involves creating figures and images using paper curls.

First of all, let's draw the image of an angel on paper. Later we will paste the angel curls into the traced plane.

Now choose the color of the paper. An angel can be white or colored. It is better to use soft colors. We choose the width of the material, the most relevant standard is 0.5 cm. You can make quilling paper yourself or purchase it at a needlework store.

Next, we prepare PVA glue, an orange stick, scissors and a drawn stencil for paper. An orange stick can be replaced with a roll stick, a pen rod or a banal wire, and instead of PVA glue, you can use a glue gun for faster fixation.

When all the tools are ready, we begin to make the details of the angel: base, wings, head and halo. Decorations on request. In the center of the part and in the border will be different colors paper. We start with a lighter one, fix the edge on a wooden stick, grease it with glue and wind the paper until the part is completed. At the end, we fix the workpiece with a drop of glue. To give the figure sharpness, we bend the tape figure along the edging. Glue part of the angel onto the stencil. The rest of the details are made in the same way, decorations are attached at the end.

from cotton pads

Cotton pads are a fairly common material that is used for crafts. We will use it to make an angel. Take the largest diameter cotton pads. One package of 70-100 pieces is enough. The edge of the discs must be stitched and the surface smooth.

We offer to make several angels at the same time, in the composition they will look more festive and organic. Take a cotton pad, glue the dumped cotton ball in the center. Let's fold the finished figure in half, and then 2 more times to form a small triangle. Smooth the edges with your finger. These are the future wings of an angel and should have stains, cut out the openwork edge, like on a snowflake.

Let's straighten the craft and move on to the next part. We turn the cotton pad in half, now we turn one edge of the half to the other edge and fix it with glue. Attach it to the wings. Our angel is almost ready, it remains to make a pendant from a thread and decorate it as you wish.

from dough

Christmas is often accompanied by home feasts and gatherings. It is on such a festive eve that gingerbread crafts are made from dough in the form of angels. Making them is pretty easy. First we knead the dough, then we mold fragrant angels from it. Take 2 handfuls of sugar, half a pack of butter, mix them with an egg and a bag of baking powder. Pour in a pinch of ginger powder or grated root. Fertilize the mass with flour and form an elastic ball so that the kneaded base does not stick to the hands.

We will put the ball in the refrigerator, after an hour we will take it out and fashion angels out of it. Roll out pieces of dough, randomly cut out parts and form angels.

First, the body is laid out: the torso, legs, wings and small triangles - the arms. Then the torso is covered with a large triangle - a shirt. Next, a circle of dough is laid out on top of the body, this will be the head. Now the hands are connected with a small pinch. For credibility, you can put a small piece of dough in the form of a flagellum into the “pens”, which will symbolize a Christmas candle. You need to bake angels on parchment for 8-10 minutes at medium temperature. When the heavenly messengers are ready, it is recommended to sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Option 1

We take plain white paper and draw on it the silhouette of an angel in full face, with a pipe in hand. Separately draw wings in a span. These will be stencils.

Using these stencils, we cut out 4 blanks. On the wings (where the feathers should be) we make a fringe so that they look more magnificent. The bottom of the dresses of angels can be made openwork using a regular hole punch.

Now we make a small incision on the back and in the middle of the wings. We connect two parts.

It turns out here are such angels with open wings.

We tie the strings to each figure (either by the wings or by the halo) and hang them on the chandelier. From the breath of air, the figures slowly move and spin on a thread. It comes out very nice!

Option 2

On a white sheet of paper or thin cardboard, draw an angel with fluffy skirt and high wings. You can print this template:

We cut along the contour with scissors and carefully cut through the halo and heart figure.

On a thick sheet of white paper we draw two stencils: one part with wings, and the other without wings.

Cut out 1 piece with wings and 6 pieces without wings.

Those parts that are without wings, fold in half lengthwise.

Now glue them to the blank with wings. To do this, we coat the place of the fold with PVA glue and apply it to the middle of the central part. Three pieces in the front and the same number in the back.

To make this angel, cut a sheet of paper in half lengthwise.

We take 2 strips and form accordions from them. The width of the side should not be more than 1 cm.

We glue them together, not reaching the edge by 3 cm. We unscrew these parts on the sides - these will be handles. And on top we glue a large pink bead - this is the head of an angel.

You can make the body in a different way. Fold one sheet with an accordion, and then make an incision 3.5 cm long in the center.

Bend these edges to the sides, as in the first case.

Glue a purple oval bead in the center.

Now we make flowers of pink and lilac flowers with a figured hole punch.

Glue the flowers on the dress (bottom, on the sleeves, in the center).

Fold the sheet in half. Unfold again and fold one of the halves inward to the fold line. Unfold a quarter sheet and fold in half inward. Do this to find the width of the strip to create the paper accordion.

Do the same with the second half. After that, assemble the sheet into an "accordion", ironing all the folds properly.

In the absence of real feathers, strips cut out in the form of feathers from paper or white fabric can be used to make angel wings, as shown in the photo below. If the feathers of the wings are cut out of fabric, they can not be glued, but sewn by hand with stitches to the base.

If the wings of an angel are a part. baby costume, they can not be glued with feathers, but decorated with beads and patterns made with paint or decorative glue.

Another version of the wings for an angel can be made using a cardboard blank as a base, on which pre-cut paper feathers are glued on top.

Origami paper angels, detailed instructions with photos

Origami is the art of folding paper shapes. The photo below demonstrates the possibilities of creating angels using this technique.

To fold the origami angel figure yourself, you can use the following scheme.

To create such an angel, you need to take a square sheet of paper and fold it diagonally - you get an isosceles triangle. Fold this triangle diagonally again, and then unfold the last fold. The fold line seen on the part indicates the center line of the triangle.

Bend the corners of the triangle to the center, forming a square.

Turn the square piece over, folded corners down. With a pen, mark points at the top corner so that they are located between the edge and the center line.

Bend the right corner, directing the edge to the intended point and releasing the previously bent triangle.

Return the triangle to its original position and repeat the operation, but with the left corner.

Make a crease by pulling the corner of the right triangle so that the left edge of the warehouse lays directly on the center line. Repeat the same on the left side.

Bend the right triangle so that its bottom edge lies on the center line. Repeat the same on the left side.

Bend the formed side corners, directing to the center, but not reaching it by 0.5 cm.

Unfold the right corner and bend the side triangle inward. Do the same on the left side

Turn the workpiece over and bend the right upper part so that the fold line runs from its top to the edge. Then the same on the left. In this case, it turns out that their free edges overlap.

Bend the corners of the overlapping parts, aligning the fold along the center line.

Taking paper craft in hands, bend the edges of the wings on both sides.

Turn the workpiece over and bend the triangles below inward.

Put the workpiece on the table, turn the wings up and bend, directing the lower parts of the wings towards the center.

Lower the wings down. Turn the workpiece over. stretch the folds at the top of the workpiece, forming an angel's hood.

Give volume to the figure with your fingers, spread your wings. The figure of an angel is ready.

Using the origami folding scheme presented below, you can independently make another original angel figurine.

In the video below, you can watch the origami angel.

Paper angels stencils for cutting, print, 5 options

Using the stencils below, you can easily make a variety of angel figurines. To do this, stencils can be transferred to paper or immediately printed in the required quantity, and then cut along the contour. Such figurines are an excellent decor that can be used to decorate windows, create postcards and panels.

Colored paper angels, step by step with a photo

Quickly and easily make a stylized angel figurine, similar to the one shown in the photo below.

To do this, you need a sheet of colored paper, glue, a pencil, a ruler and scissors.

Using a ruler and a pencil, draw on the sheet 2 squares measuring 12 × 12 cm and 2 strips with a length equal to the length of the sheet and a width of 0.5 cm each. Cut them out with scissors. These are the details from which the angel will be made. Bend each square in the form of an accordion with a step width of 0.5 cm.

Put both accordion squares together. Stepping back from the edge to cm, bend both parts, thereby outlining separating the wings from the angel's skirt.

Putting one of the parts aside, glue the inner edge of the wing and skirt together at the remaining one. Repeat the same operation on the second part.

The next step is to make the head of an angel. To do this, roll one of the thin strips into a spiral, periodically covering the strip with glue. When it is completely twisted into a spiral, take the next one and gluing it to the edge of the previous one, continue twisting the spiral. When a piece of a strip 10-12 cm long remains untwisted, make a loop 2-3 high, as can be seen in the photo below and fix it by gluing the rest of the strip to the twisted spiral so that a free tip about 5 cm long remains. as the glue dries, straighten the skirt and wings of the angel. The figurine is ready.

To make a volumetric figure of an angel with your own hands, you will need:

• 2 round napkins with openwork edges;
• 1 large round bead;
• 1 smaller bead;
• remnants of white threads;
• glue;
• scissors;
• needle.

Taking 1 napkin, glue a cone out of it. To do this, cut a small segment from the napkin, measure the gluing allowance along one of the edges, and bend it. At the part of the part reserved for the allowance, cut off the tip as shown in the photo below. Apply glue to the allowance, roll the part into a bag and glue it.

Cut the second napkin into 4 segments - 2 parts of the wings + 2 parts of the handles. To make angel handles, you need to roll each of the segments into a cone, glue them along the edge. Then sew them to the top of the large cone.
Cut off the tops of the segments reserved for the details of the wings.
From large beads make an angel's head. To do this, stringing a bead on a wooden skewer, paint it with gouache or acrylic paint white.

Cut the threads into equal lengths, fix with knots at the ends.
String a small bead on the thread. Pull the thread through the top of the cone, string a large bead-head. Fix the bundle of hair threads by again passing the needle through the hole in the head bead, the top of the cone and the small bead. Tighten the thread, securely fastening all the details, fix it by tying the ends in a knot, cut off the excess.
Glue the wings.
Attach a hanging loop to the angel's head. The angel figurine is ready.

You can make volumetric figures of angels by printing, coloring, cutting and gluing ready-made templates.

Do-it-yourself voluminous paper figures of angels can be used to create thematic compositions, as decoration for table setting or as Christmas decorations if you attach loops to them.
