You think to decorate the apartment for the holiday, but do not know what? Make a wreath of paper. This decoration has long ceased to be New Year's. Today, craftswomen make various autumn, Easter and simply decorative wreaths. They can decorate doors, walls or put on a chest of drawers. How to make a creative decor from paper, read below.
Easter wreath
To make this decoration you will need colored paper. And it should be not only tinted sheets, but also sheets with a picture. You can find such paper in shops for creativity. There you can buy ordinary matte sheets, as well as glossy and even paper with a metallic effect. From all this material we will make a wreath of paper. How to do it? First you need to draw a pattern. We depict the silhouette of an egg on cardboard and cut the blank. Now, from multi-colored paper, which is desirable to choose in one color scheme, we cut out the eggs. On a small wreath, they will need at least 12 pieces. When all the blanks are made, they should be glued together. To do this, you can use both PVA and a glue gun. We lay out the details in a circle so that the eggs are located with a slight overlap relative to each other. When the ring is ready, it should be decorated with a bow made of a ribbon. And also to the back of the wreath should attach a loop, for which the product will be suspended. It can be made from tape or from any other ribbon.
Wreath with a candle
Such a decorative decoration is incredibly simple. A wreath of paper is made of thin stripes. Preparations should be made in two to three green colors. We cut strips 1.5 cm wide and 12 cm long. Such blanks should be cut at least 24 pieces. We will make a Christmas wreath with paper from our hands on the basis of a disposable plate. We take a cardboard base and cut out the bottom of it. You should get a circle, which we will now decorate. To do this, take one of the strips, wrap it around the base. The ends of the paper strip should be glued together. Next, glue a detail of a different shade. Moreover, it is desirable to arrange the paper blanks tightly, and it is better to generally overlap with each other. Thus, the base will not shine through.
When the cardboard is completely glued, you can begin to trim the edges of the blanks. The end of each green piece of paper needs to be given a zigzag shape. When this step is completed, you can decorate the wreath. We fold the white rectangular piece of paper with an accordion. Glue it to the bottom of the wreath, and the top of the candle should be decorated with a flame. Cut out the shape of a drop from yellow and red paper, connect them together. Now you should stick them to the candle. It remains only to scatter the foam balls on the wreath and stick a large red bow.

First of all, we attach snowflakes to the base. They should be alternated and glued one large, the other small. Now, in the center of each large snowflake, you should attach the snowman's head. It remains on the back side of the wreath to glue the tape, rolled up with a loop. If desired, a small snowflake can be hung in the middle of the circle.
