Do-it-yourself voluminous snowflake for the New Year. How to make a 3D paper snowflake. Snowflakes made of woolen threads

We continue our acquaintance with the creativity of cutting out snowflakes. A master class on cutting simple snowflakes was shown in

Today we will create beautiful three-dimensional paper snowflakes. Let's raise the New Year's holiday mood together with our children, there is still time.

We will need sheets of A4 paper and scissors. Invite your children to the monitor screen and let's start watching a master class on cutting and gluing snowflakes.

Volumetric paper snowflakes “Fluffs” - master class

New Year is approaching and we need to create and decorate it with our own hands. Let's learn a simple way to cut out unusual snowflakes from paper.

How to fold paper step by step

1. Made from A4 size paper blue color We make a square by bending the sheet as in the photo.

2. Cut off the excess paper and throw it away; it will be useful for creating small snowflakes.

3. We bend our triangle with two identical sides of 20 cm each as shown in the photo.

4. The triangle was bent and all sides were straightened.

5. This is how you should end up with a triangle with three folds that you see.

6. Upper part lift the common fold with your fingers up and connect it to the side of the triangle where there are three folds. You will end up with a triangle with a long, acute angle.

7. Cut the folded triangle at an angle the same as the angle on the right.

8. This is what we got from folded paper. We will cut a snowflake from it.

How to cut a fluffy snowflake

9. We lift the long corner of the workpiece up, on the left there is one common fold, and on the right side is the side with three folds. We begin to make cuts as thin as possible with scissors.

10. The thinner we cut the strips, the fluffier the snowflake will be.

11. Cut the strips to the very bottom corner of the workpiece.

12. This is the template we ended up with.

13. Carefully unfold the template and see a fluffy simple snowflake in front of us. Where is the volume of this snowflake?

How to make voluminous snowflakes

14. To make the snowflake three-dimensional, we will cut out and complement it with other smaller snowflakes of different paper colors. Take white paper and cut out a square with sides equal to 15 cm (before this, the side of the blue snowflake was equal to 20 cm).

15. We bend the white square in the same way as we folded the blue one (see above).

16. We also cut the paper on the left with a side equal to the side on the right (you can mark the cutting line with a pencil and ruler).

17. Like this small template made from paper.

18. We unfold the paper and in front of us is a small fluffy white snowflake.

19. Let's make another snowflake from the blue paper we cut earlier. A square of workpiece with a side of 10 cm.

20. Bend the blue square exactly repeating the previously performed steps. We cut strips on the workpiece and create a template.

21. We unfold the paper and see a very small one blue snowflake. Using glue, we glue the snowflakes in the center and see a beautiful three-dimensional snowflake with the presence of blue and white colors.

22. You can do another alternation of colors, first White color, then blue, then white again.

23. As you can see, making voluminous snowflakes is simple, interesting and exciting.

Would you like to have such fluffy snowflakes at home?

You can decorate your office or home with these snowflakes and create New Year's decor.

How to fold paper for a 3D snowflake

1. We will need: White paper A4 format, scissors, pencil, glue, beads.

2. Fold the paper so that we get a square.

3. We connect the two sides of the square or bend the square in half.

4. Fold the resulting rectangle in half again.

5. Connect the corners of the square - you get a triangle.

6. Turn the triangle with the side with three folds towards you and fold it in half. The blank for drawing a diagram (drawing) with a pencil is ready.

How to cut voluminous snowflakes

7. Using a pencil, draw a diagram on a piece of folded paper.

8. We begin to cut out the snowflake. Along the first line, cut off the excess paper.

9. Along the second line we make a cut to the end of the line.

10. We will need such a strip in the workpiece. The strip will indicate beautiful shape the snowflake itself, its edges.

11. Along the third line we also make a cut to the end.

12. Cut out the entire darkened triangle and remove it.

13. We unfold the resulting template and in front of us is the creation of our hands - a snowflake.

14. We bend the second, free rim of the snowflake towards the center and glue its top with glue.

15. We do this with each protruding edge.

16. Glue beads to the center of the snowflake.

With beads, voluminous snowflakes immediately became elegant, cheerful, festive - New Year's.

How to make voluminous paper snowflakes - video

Paper crafts always delight children, whom parents simply must attract. At the same time, children's creative interest remains for life.

Hello, Dear friends! Today I will show you how to cut simple and beautiful paper snowflakes for window decoration. After all, when the first fluffy snow falls, a magical feeling of expectation of something fabulous immediately sets in in the soul.

The first snowflakes are the harbingers of the coming New Year, to which we have a particularly reverent attitude in Russia. Many begin to prepare for this holiday in advance, almost in November. Because this is a whole ritual that lifts your spirits.

They put up Christmas trees and decorate their space with various garlands and tinsel. And they do the same simple decorations made of paper, since it is the most versatile tool at hand for various crafts.

Both adults and children are captivated and captivated by this action, including me. But there is not enough imagination and the result is always some kind of rubbish instead beautiful patterns. And to help you and myself, I have prepared templates and diagrams for cutting out and decorating windows.

For such crafts, it is best to take thin material. Otherwise, for example, it’s inconvenient to cut out of printer paper. At home with children, it is more interesting to make snowflakes from colored or foil.

Let's start, to warm up with more simple templates, which even children can cut out. First you need to make the workpiece itself, with which you can then work further.

Take a colored or plain white sheet of landscape paper (A4) and cut a square out of it with scissors. It's simple - make a corner and cut off the excess. Next, do everything according to the diagram below.

Now you can work with this further. Turn on your imagination and draw an outline on the blank along which you will cut out your beauty. And then cut off the excess along the contour lines with scissors and you will get the first snowflake. I'll throw out an idea below.

I already wrote that I’m not good with imagination, but while I was selecting material for you, I decided to experiment to see what would come out of me. I took a regular sheet office paper, made the blank as described above. And then, with a pen, looking at the top drawing, I came up with my own. Although, honestly, I just scribbled triangles and rectangles. And this is what happened, look. In my opinion, a rather attractive snowflake.

Of course I did a quick fix. Just a pure try. I think it's not bad for the first time. Incredibly proud of myself. Now you can improve for the New Year. Look, I can create the same beauty on my windows.

While I was cutting it out, I made several conclusions: it is better to draw the template with a finely sharpened pencil. And scissors should have thin blades.

And now, perhaps, I’ll give you a few template ideas. Although, as it turned out using a practical method, it is very easy and simple to come up with and make a beautiful snowflake, even for people with a lack of imagination or creative thinking.

How to make paper snowflakes with your own hands easily and beautifully (step-by-step instructions)

Since I only had printer paper or a thin napkin, I continued making snowflakes using a template from the Internet on it. Something didn’t work out for me right away with the napkin. While I was drawing a template on it, it tore from the pen. And my scissors are not that sharp. Therefore, the damaged napkin immediately went into the trash bin.

And so, I found this suitable simple template:

Here, by the way, the triangle is folded a little differently. But I used the blank that I made according to the very first template. It's probably not that important anymore. I took the same pen and tried to copy this drawing on my future snowflake.

It turned out, though not exactly the same, but very similar. Well, so be it. I just want to show that even for a creative nerd like me, it's not that difficult. I took my bulky scissors and started cutting. It wasn’t possible to cut smoothly along the contour everywhere, but in the end, I overcame this stage. I unfolded the paper and realized that it turned out almost like in the picture.

Let's continue. I take the next template, redraw it, work with scissors and see the result. I understand that every time it gets better and better. Rate it.

The cutting process itself takes no more than 5 minutes. And to make everything clearer for you, I found a suitable video. Take a look and you yourself will then understand how easy it is.

Beautiful paper snowflakes for windows with cutting patterns

And what did I want to say to all of this? Yes, it’s very easy to cut out beauty for windows from paper. Even a beginner or a child can handle it. Even if you have not very convenient material at hand (too dense) and inappropriate scissors. But if you have both normal craft paper and normal sharp scissors with a thin blade, then it will be much easier for you.

If your imagination fails you, then just look at the diagrams that I will show you and copy them onto your blanks. And most importantly, don’t be afraid if it doesn’t look exactly the same. Your snowflakes will still be beautiful and unique.

Option #1

Option No. 2

Option #3

Option No. 4

Now, I think all you need to do is stock up on scissors and paper. Then use your imagination or use the suggested patterns and begin the process of decorating your windows. This one is very exciting, I tell you.

How to glue snowflakes to a window?

And so you cut out our beauty, now you need to glue them to the windows. I'll tell you how to do this now. There are several options and here are the most common:

• Water - suitable for thin material, but there is a risk that after drying paper crafts I may shrink or fall off.
• Milk is a good substitute for water. Pour it into a wide bowl, dip a snowflake into it and quickly but carefully apply it to the glass.

• Soap solution - plan laundry soap and pour boiling water over the chips, stirring until they dissolve. Then apply the solution to the products with a brush, sponge or sponge.
• Paste - pour water into a saucepan, put on fire and bring to a boil. Then gradually add flour to the water and stir so that there are no lumps. A fairly thick consistency should be achieved.

• Toothpaste - I like this method. Apply a little of it to the product and apply it to the window. When you remove the snowflakes, the paste will be easily washed off.
• Glue - you can use any PVA glue or glue stick. By the way, there is water-soluble glue. It would be better with it, easier to wash off later.

Now you know how to beautifully cut and stick paper snowflakes on your windows for the New Year. It's not difficult at all. And the process itself is so captivating that it is impossible to stop. You can embed products different sizes and create a drawing from them. The main thing is that there is enough imagination. But, I believe in you!

Greetings, dear readers. Paper snowflakes are one of the simplest and available options decorate your home or Christmas tree. Let's try to make a paper snowflake together different ways.

There are quite a lot of ways. You can use the simplest methods, or you can do a complex one three-dimensional figure. We will consider the most interesting options and not very complicated. These snowflakes can be used to decorate your home or take crafts to kindergartens or schools.

What is the most important thing in making paper snowflakes? Are you thinking paper or scissors? No. The most important thing is the mood. Without this, nothing will work out as it should.

One more important point- make snowflakes with your children. They really like this, and let the child do something himself, and you just help. Make a sample yourself and show your child how to do it. You just need to be careful with the scissors. Let's keep an eye on this.

So my son and I decided to make some snowflakes. It's nice when a child says: “I myself!” I myself, dad." OK. Let's start with the most simple products and we will further complicate the process. We will need: paper, scissors and pencil.

Write in the comments what kind of snowflakes you make and whether you can make such snowflakes as described below.

How to make simple paper snowflakes in different ways.

The most important thing is that to make a snowflake out of paper, you need to fold it correctly. It turns out there are several ways to fold it. Although before I knew only one way and always cut it that way at school.

There are at least three ways to fold paper, which will result in a different number of edges. Let's start with the simplest. All these snowflakes can be made from any paper, colored or polished, or whatever, it doesn’t matter, it’s whatever you want. The main thing is to make a square at the beginning and then follow the pattern.

We did all this with the child, but I think everything will be quite clear and visible.

Tetrahedral snowflakes.

The simplest option, we did these in kindergarten and in primary school. Very convenient and simple for small children.

Here simple circuit:

This is how we do it:

Snowflake with four sides

1. First, bend the square diagonally to make a square.
2. Then fold it in half and in half again.
3. Now draw a pattern with a pencil and cut it out. You can immediately draw, as you wish.
4. Carefully unfold it and here is a snowflake.

By the way, the templates that we will describe below are all perfect for any folding method, so choose any one or draw it yourself as you like. And use different folding methods to make a paper snowflake in different ways, it will turn out more interesting.

1. We also fold the square diagonally.
2. Then we fold it in half and unfold it. This is necessary to mark the center. Now we lower the upper corner to the edge down, it turns out we fold it in half and unfold it.
3. Now we take the same corner and fold it to the middle (the fold that was noted above). Let's expand.
4. Now we fold the left and right corners so that they touch the top short line. See picture.
5. Now, as in the picture, we bend the right and left sides.
6. Cut off the bottom part.
7. We draw a picture, cut off the excess and carefully unfold it.

Hexagonal.

Option 1:

1. Now let's fold it in half again and straighten it out. A clear center will appear on the largest side.
2. Then you need to bend the left and right corners as in the photo, in the center we marked, you should get an acute angle, and the triangles should turn out exactly the same.
   If you have a protractor, you can draw lines from the center at 60º and 120º, respectively; the edges of the corners should be placed on these lines.
3. Now we fold everything in half and cut off the excess.
4. Draw and carefully cut out.

Option 2:

1. Fold the square diagonally.
2. Fold it in half again.
3. Now left and right side fold as in the picture, the angles are also 60º and 120º. You should also end up with two identical triangles. Cut off the excess.

This type of snowflake is the most common. It is quite simple and the snowflake looks beautiful.

Octagonal snowflake.

This way you can roll a snowflake, but cutting it out is difficult, although it looks even more interesting.

1. Fold the square diagonally.
2. Then in half.
3. Another half.
4. And in half again.
5. Cut out the design and carefully unfold it.

And from them you can make volumetric sprocket. To do this, you just need to cut out several identical templates, glue them together and you get a wonderful three-dimensional snowflake. Here's an example:

Here are some templates for drawings.

How to make a paper snowflake in kirigami style.

There is nothing complicated in this format; we make it like a regular hexagonal star according to option 1. Everything is in the pattern. We make slits and when we unfold the snowflake, we bend some of the edges and we get a three-dimensional snowflake. It turns out very beautifully.

Here are examples of drawings:

How to cut beautiful snowflakes with your own hands

When you already have an understanding of how this is done, you can come up with your own patterns. Don't be afraid to experiment.

Snowflake made of paper strips.

Another very simple way to make a snowflake out of paper is to use paper strips. It’s simple enough that you can do it with your child. Only an adult needs to cut out the strips first.

We will need:

• Identical strips - 12 pieces (0.5 cm by 10 cm or 1 cm by 20 cm);
• Scissors;
• You can glue it with a stapler to make it faster.

Using scissors, cut out 12 identical strips. you can take a width of 0.5 cm and a height of 10 cm. If you want a larger snowflake, then double the size.

Now we put 6 strips crosswise according to the pattern and glue them together.

We glue the outer strips together, see the picture.

We make a second star exactly the same.

Glue two of them together and you get a snowflake.

Here's a snowflake made from paper strips

Thus, we have a simple but beautiful three-dimensional snowflake. Can be made in different colors and from different materials.

Here's another way to do it:

Volumetric 3D paper snowflake.

Now let's try to make it a little more complicated. Although any child can cope with such a task.

We will need:

• Paper (thick);
• Scissors;
• Stationery knife;
• Ruler;
• Scotch tape or glue;
• Stapler.

Step 1.

First we will make 6 identical squares. Can also be used in different ways colored paper. But it needs to be dense so that the snowflake holds its shape.

Step 2.

Now we bend all the squares diagonally. We make 3 cuts on each side facing each other. But leave a gap of about 1 cm between the cuts.

Step 3.

Now let's unfold it. Glue the middle. Then we turn it over and glue the nearest strips on the other side.

We turn it over again and glue the nearest strips. Turn over again and glue the strips together. The result is a beautiful three-dimensional figure.

Step 4.

Now we do the same with the remaining five squares.

Step 5.

We fasten three figures together at the very bottom (at the tip).

Step 6.

We fasten two figures together. Now the snowflake is ready. If you get a large snowflake, then you can also staple 6 separate figures on the sides. This way it will be more stable.

Snowflakes using quilling technique.

This is already more complex technology, which requires more perseverance, but opens up a huge world for imagination. Quilling is the art of making different shapes from strips of paper, twisted into a spiral and glued together with glue. This is how you can describe it.

What you will need for this:

1. Paper strips. Various thicknesses: from 3 mm to 10 mm. The volume of the figure depends on the thickness.
2. A stick with an eye is the main tool in this matter. They wrap strips with it. If this is not the case, then you can use a regular awl or pencil.
3. PVA glue.
4. Toothpick for applying glue. Or something like that.
5. Stencils for different circles. There is a ruler with stencils of different diameters of circles.

Here it is different kinds details, how to make details, such as a drop, an oval or a heart.

And this is how it might turn out:

Another snowflake using the quilling technique

The video describes in more detail how to make a snowflake.

Or here’s another way to make a snowflake out of paper using quilling.

But this method is simpler, for beginners, one might say.

Snowflake made of paper using origami technique.

This is the most difficult version of the technique for making snowflakes, and indeed any paper figures. Now you will need not only patience, but also a lot of time and experience.

Of course, it may not work out the first time, but everything will definitely work out on the second try and beyond. The main thing is to learn how to make modules. And from these modules it will be easier to do everything.

To make it easier, use thin paper. The thinner it is, the easier it is to do.

First, you can try to make a snowflake according to this pattern:

Origami style develops motor skills very well. After all, the module needs to do a lot))).

Try to do this miracle according to the scheme:

Each module fits well together. Therefore, after the first figure according to the diagram, you can come up with your own version of collecting snowflakes.

I wish you success in your creative process.

How else can you make a snowflake out of paper?

You can make a snowflake out of paper in other ways, you just need to use your imagination and do it. Here's an example of how easy it is to make a snowflake out of stripes:

Or you can cut out a snowflake from colored thick paper and glue pieces of paper onto it, twisted onto a thin brush or toothpick. Here's the principle:

And this miracle happens:

Or you can simply roll up cones from colored paper and glue them in a circle, alternating and decorating, to create a beautiful New Year’s snowflake.

That's all for me, leave your comments, see you in new articles.

How to cut beautiful snowflakes with your own hands, snowflake patterns. updated: December 20, 2017 by: Subbotin Pavel

The paper for cutting out snowflakes can be taken from office paper, colored paper for children's creativity, paper for origami.

It is convenient to use ordinary stationery scissors to cut out relatively large sections of the pattern, for example along the edge of a snowflake.

To cut out small details and complex patterns, it is better to use hairdressing scissors and manicure scissors.

DIY snowflakes

So, the paper and scissors have been selected, now you can proceed to the first stage of making snowflakes - folding the paper. To obtain a hexagonal blank from which a snowflake will subsequently be made, cut out a square of the required size from a sheet of paper.

How to get squares of different sizes from an A4 sheet

1. Fold a sheet of paper in any way, but so that one part is larger than the other, and then cut along the marked line.

2. Fold most of the sheet along a bisector.

3. Cut off the excess paper to make a square.

4. The blank for the big snowflake is ready.

5. Repeat steps 2-3 with the smaller part of the sheet remaining after step 1.

6. The result is a blank for a medium snowflake.

7. With the trim remaining after step 6, repeat steps 2-3.

8. The result is a blank for a small snowflake. Thus, from one A4 sheet you can make blanks for three snowflakes of different sizes.

The dimensions of the blanks may vary slightly. They depend on how the original sheet was folded in step 1. In addition big snowflake can be obtained by cutting a square from a whole A4 sheet.

How to fold a hexagonal blank from a square

Now we need to make a regular triangle from the square (in unfolded form - a hexagon), from which a snowflake will be cut out.

Method No. 1

1. Fold the square in half.

2. Then fold the sheet “by eye” so that the angles indicated in diagram 3 are equal.

3. Turn the workpiece over to the other side.

4. The fold should run along the edge of the workpiece, bent in step 2 of the layer, and the top edge should coincide with the left fold.

5. Trim off any excess paper evenly.

Method No. 2

1. Fold the square diagonally.

2. Mark the middle of the leg of the resulting triangle (side).

3. Connect the vertex (right angle) of the triangle with the intended middle of the leg. Mark the fold line and again unfold the workpiece to a triangle.

4. Now mark the middle of the base of the triangle.

5. Connect the middle of the leg with a point lying on the marking line obtained in step 3. The fold line should pass through the middle of the base of the triangle.

6. Connect the base of the triangle to the fold line obtained in step 5.

7. Cut off the excess paper along the indicated line.

Advice

Choose the size of the hexagonal blank (large, small or medium) yourself based on the paper you use for cutting, the complexity of the snowflake and your skills in working with scissors.

Cutting out a snowflake

1. Fold the regular triangle obtained using one of the methods suggested above (an unfolded hexagon) in half. Perform all actions very precisely so that later you do not cut through the layers of paper folded crookedly with scissors. Make sure that the circled tip (see diagram) is in the center of the future snowflake.

2. Start cutting. In the diagrams, areas of paper that need to be removed are indicated in bright pink. First, form the outer edge of the snowflake. To do this, cut out a pattern on the top side of the workpiece, as shown in the diagram.

3. Then cut out the pattern on both sides of the workpiece. The last to be cut are small elements inside the workpiece and near an acute corner.

4. The snowflake is ready, all that remains is to carefully unfold it.

We will cut out all the presented snowflakes according to this description, starting from step 2, when the regular triangle is already folded in half. The fact is that all snowflakes are cut out the same way, only the pattern changes, so we did not repeat the description of the work many times, but limited ourselves to exact diagrams.

The process of making each snowflake consists of 3-5 sequential diagrams, on which the areas of paper to be removed are indicated in black. The last diagram, which shows a completely cut out, but not yet unfolded, snowflake, is also a template. You can “by eye” draw a pattern from it onto your workpiece, or transfer it using tracing paper and carbon paper.

Advice

The snowflake should look like a graphic image with a clearly readable pattern, so perform all stages of the work very carefully and accurately.

Such snowflakes will become beautiful New Year's interior decoration .

Option No. 1 – decoration with twists

This option for creating a homemade 3-D paper snowflake, the peculiarity of which is its three-dimensional configuration, is worth trying for those who want to decorate the room with large decorative elements. The design of such snowflakes can include several colors at once. Of particular interest are the transitions of tones in a circle.

Make six square pieces of paper with the same dimensions.

Important! The radius of the decoration will coincide with the diagonal of the square-shaped paper part; Taking this point into account, first decide what format of snowflakes you want.

In addition to paper, you will need scissors, a simple pencil and glue. You will need a ruler for marking, and a stapler to fasten the parts.

Let's look at the scheme for making a three-dimensional New Year's snowflake in more detail:

If you do not fully understand the diagram self-made snowflakes - watch the video: the master class will help you create paper decorations:

Option No. 2 – template decorations

Involve children in arts and crafts. Jointly creating New Year's accessories using templates is a great opportunity to chat with children and help them learn new creative techniques that will certainly be interesting to them. Together with your children, make homemade paper decor in the form of three-dimensional snowflakes.

To make a 3D decoration, you just need to fold the pieces in a circle and then glue one on top of the other; In this way, you will create a three-dimensional snowflake from flat elements.

Those who are not going to make a three-dimensional decoration by gluing together several identical pieces should use the “accordion” technique - it is quite simple.

Fold the paper sheet like an accordion and fold it in half, then make markings.

The paper turned out to be too thick, and you can’t immediately cut out a solid product? It’s easy to solve the problem - draw markings on one side and the other of the accordion: this technique will save you from the need to fold a sheet of paper in half. In addition, using this technique, you can create details of halves and quarters of future snowflakes. The blanks are laid out and then glued together.

The photo shows an easy-to-create jewelry option, but you can make more unusual designs. Attach loops to the snowflakes or combine them, thereby making a garland, and decorate the room for the New Year holidays.

To better understand the accordion technique, watch the video demonstrating how you can make a voluminous paper snowflake step by step:

Option number 3 – snowflake star made of paper strips

Let's look at another simple and yet interesting technique for creating paper snowflakes with a three-dimensional shape with step by step technique, great for beginners. This technique in most cases it involves the use of paper, which is used in the quilling technique. Such paper can be purchased at stores offering handicraft supplies.

If you can’t find special paper, plain paper sheets will do. In addition to paper, prepare brushes, glue and clothespins.

Quilling snowflakes decorate windows, Christmas trees, walls, and you can also use them for decoration. festive table. Often such jewelry is made in several colors and decorated with sparkles to make them more vibrant.

First, cut the strips: their number depends on the configuration of the future decoration. The length of one strip is 15-25 cm and the width is approximately 2 cm.

The most an important part The job is to twist the strips correctly. To prevent the strips from losing the required shape, coat them with glue. Details round shape It is recommended to secure them with a clothespin until they dry.

After finishing preparing the parts, assemble them into a snowflake. Glue the elements to each other. In the middle of the decoration, place a circle consisting of several layers - one folded strip. To make your work more convenient, use a thread spool.

The final step is decorating and fixing the resulting snowflake. You can start decorating only after the parts have dried and adhered well.
