Bright holidays, or what to do with the baby on New Year's holidays: crafts from cocktail tubes. Master class "Christmas tree from cocktail tubes Christmas tree from cocktail tubes with your own hands
The morning of January 1 ... The guests dispersed, everything is put in its place, and the kid in the kitchen enthusiastically goes through the rest of the holiday bright tubes for a cocktail - pink, green, yellow ... If after the holiday there are quite a lot of them, and the child likes them so much, you can “colorize” your joint holidays - make colored crafts from such tubes. This is also funny exciting game, and a developmental activity (remember, there is such an exercise for developing creative abilities - come up with how you can more ways application to a simple object?), and great way make a useful thing out of an unnecessary material. And after the holidays, the kid will have something to brag to his classmates at school.
You will say: but what can be done from simple tubes? The options are huge! Look around and you will surely find a lot of things that can be "colored" in such an amazing way. Perhaps you have a boring glass tumbler at home that is the last of an old set? From it you can make such a pretty vase.
We decorate a vase
To do this, you need to cut off a long straight part from the tubes (to a corrugated bend; don’t throw away what remains - it will come in handy for us too!) Wash, dry and degrease the glass, you can cover it if you wish acrylic paint- then the finished craft will look brighter. Cut the tubes to the height of the glass and glue to its surface with glue gun. When the glue dries, near the base of the vase, tie a ribbon to match the color of the tubes you have chosen and tie with a small bow. The vase is ready!
New Year's toys, candles and crackers ...
If the holiday has not yet arrived, and you are already reading this article, take another idea into service: making Christmas tree decorations from straws.
Cut the straw into small pieces, 4-5 mm each. We draw our future decoration on paper, and then with the help of glue we assemble it according to the pattern from the tubes. Choose a glue that dries quickly. The result is inexpensive and bright new Year decoration with which you can decorate the windows or the yard.
...and not toys.
Do you want to do something more serious? How do you like the idea - such a fluffy colored lampshade?
It will take about two hundred straws on it, which, with the help of transparent glue, must be glued to the glass ceiling. And from bright pieces of colored straw, according to the same principle, you can make such a small lamp-cube. With it, your baby will not be afraid of the dark! Yes, and an adult will be delighted with such a creative bright gift.
Don't want to struggle with small pieces? You can glue long straws vertically - it will turn out no less beautiful.
Decorate the door of your house New Year can be like this New Year's wreath. On a small cardboard circle with a glue gun, glue straws with a "sun" different lengths and decorate with a bright bow.
Not only decoration, but also useful thing could be a fruit stand. For this you need:
- String the required number of straws on a nylon thread, fasten the other, unsewn edge with adhesive tape and cut the tubes obliquely, starting from a length of 3 cm, and then longer and longer until you reach the full length of the straw.
- Pass the thread through the cut edge too, putting beads and glass beads between the straws.
- Then pull off the edge to get the shape of a snail, and fasten the ends of the thread with beads, pull the thread on the other side too. A useful decoration is ready!
To get a perfectly flat stand, try to string the straws on the thread exactly in the center. You can use a different number of straws, then the stand will turn out more or less. The main thing is to keep the proportion in the ratio of the length of the straws.
