Paper cones

Decorations made of paper look very beautiful on a Christmas tree in the form of cones. Making them is pretty easy, the main thing is to have the right shape at hand. It can be a foam ball or oval, a Kider-surprise egg, and other similar things.

Take a big hole punch and make a lot of confetti. It is desirable that the resulting circles were about two to three centimeters in diameter.

Take the mold and use the glue gun to stick the finished circles on it. Start at the narrower end. Glue so that the half circle is free. Each new row begins over the previous one. When the bump is done, attach a small loop of ribbon and glue the spruce twig.

The second option is bumps - pendants

To make a bump in a slightly different shape, you will not need a hole punch, but you will also need an egg-shaped base.

Operating procedure:

1. Cut a square out of paper and bend its left and right sides to make a triangle. In this case, you need to leave a small piece from the bottom (see above for the presented diagrams).
2. Make many more similar blanks from paper.
3. Take the shape and stick the four blanks on the narrow end so that they touch their vertices at one point.
4. Glue the next layer of blanks. It should begin immediately above the previous one, and the top of the triangle should be located between the two previous elements.
5. Stick all the rows in this way.
6. Attach a ribbon.
