New Year is a bright family holiday, which is usually celebrated with relatives and friends. But together you can not only decorate the Christmas tree or set the table, but also make holiday toys. We bring to your attention a master class on making an original Christmas tree decoration. Together with your children, you can create a stunningly beautiful snowflake in a few minutes.
You'll need:
- Transparent adhesive (silicone sealant).
- Parchment.
- Snowflake pattern.
- Sequins.
- Brush.
- Thin wire.
- Acrylic paint of any color (optional).
To begin with, you need to create a stencil of a vytynanka for subsequent work with it. You can entrust this to your children by announcing a competition for the best New Year's snowflake. Believe me, your little ones will take part in this game with great pleasure. You just have to nominate a winner and together choose the best option. When the stencil is ready, transfer it to the parchment. If you are using ordinary cardboard, then carefully attach the film over it so that in the future your snowflake does not stick to it.
Let's start creating the wireframe. Do this work item yourself, but if you entrusted it to your children, do not leave them unattended. Apply glue along the entire outline of the snowflake in a continuous stream. If it does not seem voluminous to you, apply a few more coats. Isn't it simple? Now you just have to wait until the glue is completely dry. This can take over two hours, so please be patient.
When the New Year's crystal stops sticking to your hands, carefully remove it from the base and start decorating. If there are still pieces of paper on it, wet the snowflake in water and carefully get rid of this trouble.
At this stage, you can show your imagination, or you can completely entrust it to your children. For example, cover the snowflake with a thin layer of glue and sprinkle generously with glitter. For those who love bright jewelry, you can paint it with paint of any color and shower it with glitter in the same way. Trust your imagination, the result will pleasantly surprise you!
After the work is finished, dry the product thoroughly so that a layer of paint or gloss does not stain things. Now you just have to make the mount. On one side, attach a piece of wire in a loop with silicone glue.
That's all, the original Christmas tree toy is ready, there is no analogue in any store. Enjoy your creativity!
