New Year is coming soon, which means that the snow is sparkling underfoot, there is a New Year tree in every house, and under the tree there is a scattering of gifts. For almost everyone, these days are associated with a certain presence of magic and making new wishes. In just a week, we will all turn into we have a sweet tooth and will eat tons of sweets and absorb the joy of meeting old friends, communicating with loved ones, sledding and skating, eating salads, children laughing, watching old cozy films and of course from creativity. Oh, how much more is needed be in time! Yes. We bought this..., we prepared this. Well, I got distracted again. And you know that every day the number of people doing handicrafts is growing. One could even say that now there is a real BOOM for handmade products. The question is, why? If now in a store you can buy everything your heart desires. But because the craving for man-made things is inherited from our parents.
Our ancestors used things made with their own hands not just as decoration, but as a talisman. Gathering together over their creation, loving women dreamed, sang, laughed, thereby creating a favorable atmosphere. As a result, a thing made with love and joy absorbed this positive energy and filled with protective power. So let's give our loved ones love and care and create a Christmas wreath for them - a talisman, let it protect our homes from all evil.
To create a New Year's wreath we will need
To make the base of the wreath we will need fir branches. Let's make them from foamiran.
For mode it is cut into strips 2 cm wide.
It is more convenient and faster to cut foamiran folded in several layers.
Without cutting 3-5mm to the edge, we create a fringe.
Our branch will be unusually soft and fluffy.
For the base of the branch it is better to use thicker wire. It is more convenient to glue workpieces to it.
We form a spruce paw. We wrap the lower part of the wire with floral tape.
Our New Year's wreath will be decorative. Therefore, it is quite appropriate to use decorative branches in its design. They are very simple to make, but will greatly refresh our greenery. We work with polymer clay Pion-online. Remnants of unused clay and even already painted clay can also be suitable for this. There is no need for it to dry. Everything goes into use!
It is convenient to store the chopped pieces under a glass or any other similar object. Because the film has to be unrolled all the time, and the glass will reliably protect our polymer clay from drying out.
Roll out small balls. We use 6 mm.
Glue it to the wire using latex glue and dry it.
Paint it red with regular nail polish. The balls will turn out bright and lively.
Cut the floral tape lengthwise and wrap the stem of each berry.
We collect a twig.
Here you go! Looks more fun already.
Let's prepare the wire for the rowan berries. Drop a little acrylic paint onto the bag and draw the white wire, wrapping your fingers around it. This will keep your hands clean.)
We cut polymer clay blanks. Pieces for a glass!
And they went about their business. Joke.)))
Roll out the ball.
We squeeze out the star with a stack and glue it to the wire.
Let's dry it.
For coloring we use 2 colors (black and burgundy). Because our rowan is not simple, but “ignorant”. It is sweet and tart like chokeberry, but with an aroma and slight bitterness, like red one. It looks a little larger than ordinary rowan. Place a drop on the star and shade it with burgundy acrylic.
A little matte varnish for shine and put it in a brush.
Let’s complicate the work and add hawthorn to our composition. Intuitively, he asks.
I want hawthorn!!!
We paint a piece of polymer clay yellow.
We paint our workpiece with oil paints.
Well, what would it be like without New Year’s SHINE!?
Bead pendants.
Assembly.
Let's give the branches a rounded shape.
Let's estimate all the branches, folding them into a wreath. For now, just fold them and see if they are too small. Does the New Year's wreath correspond to our idea.
We connect everything to a temporary fastening. These are pieces of wire wrapped in paper. They hold the entire composition well and make it possible to insert new elements.
We attach decorative branches on top of the spruce branches. We fasten everything together with the same pieces of wire.
We straighten the branches, bringing all the beauty to the front side.
This is what should happen.
Now comes the fun part!
This year we gave you many wonderful master classes. We hope that you didn’t just collect them, but tried to do something with them. And perhaps you still have unfinished projects. So, we added flowers to this wreath. You can place all your unfinished flowers in it. Try it and you will certainly be able to revive your projects. After all, on New Year’s Eve everything will certainly come true.
Let's add our berries, Christmas tree decorations, and transparent sparkles like pieces of ice. Now the wreath is truly NEW YEAR'S!
We sincerely congratulate you on the upcoming New Year. We have worked hard and are leaving for the winter holidays with a calm heart. But our store is still open for you at any time of the day or night.
May the holidays be fun and all your dreams come true.
Sincerely yours Pion-online and its craftswomen!

Before the New Year, many children make themed crafts, which they then give to relatives or take to school or kindergarten. Moms try to find interesting new ideas to diversify the creative process. An excellent solution would be to prepare your own New Year's crafts from foamiran. This is a material that is pleasant to the touch, characterized by its plasticity and the ability to easily take on new shapes.
Features of foamiranThe material is easy to cut with scissors and can be painted with acrylic paints. Products made from it are easy to wash and do not require special care. It is easy to give the desired texture to the details using tools, as well as a regular iron.
It is important that the material is absolutely non-toxic, so it can be used in creativity for the little ones.
What to make from foamiran for the New Year?
- Christmas trees made of foamiran. For the craft you will need:
- green foamiran;
- glue, ruler, cardboard and scissors;
- various decorations.
First you will need to roll the cone and cut the foamiran into strips. Each of them should have a fringe. Next, use a hot iron to heat each strip. As a result, the fringe begins to curl beautifully. Now you need to paste the strips over the cone and decorate the resulting Christmas tree.
Compositions with fir branches can be used for various brooches, hairpins, and jewelry.
Even if your mother has never been familiar with new material before, there is no need to be afraid to make New Year’s crafts from foamiran, there are
Wreaths are rapidly gaining popularity again. Once they carried a sacred meaning, now such products are just a sophisticated decoration. Wreaths made from living herbs and flowers look especially beautiful, but, unfortunately, their lifespan is very short-lived. If you want to have a delicate headband to complement your look, or a Christmas wreath for your apartment, then you can make such a craft from foamiran with your own hands. Today you will learn how to make both types of wreaths yourself.
The headband we'll be looking at today is made up of oversized rosehip flowers and beautiful purple muscari. Making it won't take you much time. Even a novice craftswoman can make flowers for such a wreath.
To make your wreath look more festive, you can sprinkle its elements with small sparkles that shimmer in the light.
Flower wreaths are a fashion trend. They will look great paired with a romantic floor-length dress or with jeans and an airy silk blouse.
Tutorial on creating flowers from foamiran for a wreath:
- Cut a strip 2 - 2.5 cm thick from a sheet of yellow foamiran. Paint one side of it gold. Cut a “fence” from the strip with blunt ends and cut each triangle into a fringe. The width of the base of the “fence” mod should be approximately 1 cm.
- Glue this strip by twisting it onto the wire. To curl the fringe of the center of the flower, you need to heat it over a gas burner and twist it using scissors. Make 16 of these blanks. In this case, you should get 4 strips of 3 cm thick, 5 of 2.5 cm and 7 of 2 cm.
- Make templates of three sizes: the first should be 5 by 8 cm, the second 10 by 5, and the third 10 by 3. These petal templates should be shaped like tea rose petals. The sepal pattern is similar to a flower with six petals that are pointed at the edges. Our wreath will have leaves; their shape should correspond to the shape of a real tea rose.
- Cut out 40 small petals, 30 large and 50 medium ones from pale pink foamiran using templates. You will also need 16 sepals and 16-20 leaves. Sprinkle the petals along the upper edge and one third of the lower part with purple sparkles, paint the leaves and sepals on one side golden and green.
- To shape the small petals, they need to be heated with an iron and pressed into a piece of foam rubber. The sepals also need to be heated and their center pressed into the foam rubber. The leaves need to be treated with temperature using a curling iron, after which veins need to be drawn on them with a wooden skewer. Medium petals need to be processed in the same way as small ones, but do not press the bubble too much, and only in the middle. Large petals need to be heated, twisted in a spiral, and then carefully straightened.
- To make buds, you need to glue small elements to the middle with an overlap of half a petal, 5 pieces for each flower. Large and medium-sized flowers are collected from 10 petals of their own size, arranged in two rows.
- When the flowers are collected on their base, you need to glue the sepals and leaves, and wrap the stems with green floral tape.
As a result, you should get 7 buds, 5-6 medium semi-opened flowers and 3 large opened flowers. You can buy a boule for forming petals in an online store, or you can make it yourself, from polymer clay and wire 5 mm in diameter.
Wreath with flowers from foamiran: making muscari
Muscari are purple flowers that are one of the first to bloom in spring. They are very often planted in front gardens, and they will be an excellent addition to our delicate wreath.
We make muscari from foamiran with our own hands:
- Cut out 50 tiny flowers with 6 thin petals from lilac or purple foamiran using a figured hole punch or a stationery knife.
- Sprinkle the flowers with purple glitter and poke a small hole in the center of each one.
- Prepare 10 pieces of thick fishing line and attach 5 flowers to each line and lower them to the end of the fishing line. In order for the flowers to stick, you need to melt and flatten the tip of the fishing line with your fingers and apply a drop of glue to the first and last element.
- Bring the flowers to the fire and hold for a few seconds (do this carefully so that the fishing line does not melt), press the heated flowers with your fingers so that they gather a little towards the center.
Now all you have to do is collect all the flowers into a wreath. To do this, you need to weave flower stems from wire together just as you would weave a wreath of fresh flowers. Remember that the size and shape of the wreath must match the size of your head. Collect flowers in a fantasy order, periodically adding muscari on a fishing line.
Christmas wreath made of foamiran: master class on making elements
In the days of preparation for Christmas and the New Year, we try to decorate our apartment as beautifully and magically as possible. After all, soon it will be filled with friends and relatives who have come to spend festive moments with us.
In addition to foamiran, you may need polymer clay, then your wreath will be more beautiful and unusual. You can make branches of viburnum and hawthorn from plastic by planting one colored ball on pieces of wire, and then collecting them in bunches using green floral tape.
One of the traditional decorations for Christmas and New Year is a wreath made of fir branches and other decorative elements. If you want such a product to please the eye every New Year, assemble it from foamiran.
Making spruce branches for the wreath:
- Cut green foamiran sheets lengthwise. Cut strips for fringe, not reaching 3 mm from the edge. You will need 5 of these strips for one branch. The number of branches depends on the size of the spruce wreath you want.
- Take a long thick wire and wrap the top of it, from top to bottom, with one strip of fringe. Do this for all stripes.
- Take five fringed wires and gather them into a spruce foot, wrapping the wire with floral tape.
- Make the required number of spruce legs.
In addition to Christmas tree branches, you will need transparent beads of various shapes and a string of green or golden beads. Also, the Ukrainian New Year's wreath can be decorated with a cute little brownie.
Putting together the elements of a foamiran Christmas wreath
When all the elements of the Christmas wreath are prepared, you can assemble them into one composition. First you need to make a round wreath from fir branches, connecting them together using pieces of wire wrapped with floral tape. You need to place viburnum branches on top, hiding their stems behind fluffy foamiran needles. Now, all that remains is to decorate the craft with transparent and colored beads, hawthorn berries and other decorative elements.
This New Year's wreath can be complemented with orchid flowers made from foamiran.
Making foamiran wreaths (video)
Foamiran wreaths are made quite simply and quickly. They are durable and look very realistic. Try to make such a craft with your own hands, and your home will sparkle with new colors.
The tradition of decorating your home with Christmas wreaths on New Year's Eve came to us from Europe during the time of Peter the Great. The Russian Emperor loved to instill Western customs in our country. And after the traditional Christmas tree today, another symbol of Christmas came to us - a wreath.
Today this decoration can be bought in any supermarket a few days before the New Year. But those who like to make decorative elements with their own hands can make a Christmas wreath themselves. We will tell you how to make this symbol of the winter holidays in this article.
A New Year's wreath can be made from various materials. The most common of them are pine branches and New Year's toys. But, you can make such a decoration from balloons.
This simple festive wreath can be made from four sausage balls
Any colors can be used. But, for a Christmas wreath, the best combination would be green and blue, with the addition of a red ball.
We roll three balls together as shown in the picture.
We braid them into a braid.
We connect the ends of the woven balls to form a wreath.
Now you need to inflate the red balloon and leave 3 cm.
We twist, divide the ball into two halves and twist it. Then we repeat the twist with the second half of the ball.
You should end up with a “bow” like this.
Attach it to the wreath by twisting the ends of the balls.
How to make a New Year's wreath for a door from pine cones?
Pine cones are also an excellent material for making a Christmas wreath. You can make such a wreath yourself. Moreover, it will not differ much from those sold in specialized stores or online stores.
Materials for production
In order to make such a wreath you need cardboard, tinsel, Christmas tree decorations, pine cones, a stationery knife, PVA glue, a stapler and glitter for decoration.
If you don’t have a compass at hand, you can draw a circle on cardboard using a saucepan lid. The second circle, with a smaller diameter, needs to fit into the larger one. The output should be a cardboard donut.
Now it’s tedious to wrap this “donut” in tinsel. You need to use a stapler as fastening.
After that, we decorate the wreath with cones and balls. They can be attached to the wreath using glue. You can also use figurines of Santa Claus, a snowman, various bows and other Christmas symbols as decorations.
IMPORTANT: To make this decoration look better, the balls can be decorated with sparkles, and the cones can be coated with gold or silver paint.
Usually such a wreath is attached to the front door
IMPORTANT: The cones for such a wreath must be collected the same size. You also need to consider their size. The size of the cones should correspond to the size of the wreath. Before use, the pine cones should be rinsed with water and dried. This must be done carefully so as not to damage the cones.
There are two ways to give pine cones a decorative look:
- Paint with white paint and sprinkle with glitter
- Paint it gold or silver
Interesting: The Christmas wreath first appeared in Hamburg, Germany. With the help of candles mounted on an old cart wheel, Lutheran priest Johann Hinrich Wichern informed parishioners who did not know how to use a calendar the exact time of the beginning of the holiday. Subsequently, the wheel with candles was transformed into a beautiful Christmas wreath.
How to make a New Year's wreath on a felt door?
To make such a wreath you will need felt in three colors: red, green and white. The material can be ordered. You will also need decorative ribbon and beads.

2. Then you need to cut out similar bagels from foam rubber and glue them to the base on both sides.
3. After which the frame of the future holiday wreath needs to be wrapped in gauze.
We attach the candies to the wreath using double-sided tape. Therefore, they should be light. The best option would be truffles.
We fill the voids between the candies with tinsel, beads, “rain” or any other New Year’s decorations.
Interesting: The Advent wreath in the Christian tradition has several meanings. Its shape – a circle – symbolizes the infinity of existence. The flame from the candles is a feeling of joy from the upcoming holiday, and the pine needles are life. The red color from the ribbons and decorations indicates the blood of Christ that he shed for humanity. And with the help of bells, which often become an attribute of the Christmas wreath, people scare away evil spirits from their homes.

2. We divide the coniferous branches into parts convenient for forming a wreath.
3. Then we attach them to the frame so that the second bunch of branches overlaps the bottom of the previous ones and covers it.
3. We fasten the last bunch so that its lower part is hidden behind the first bunch of coniferous branches.
4. Now use all your imagination and decorate your wreath as you see fit. For this purpose, you can use any toys, beads, bows and other things with New Year's surroundings.
