You can make many crafts from plain white paper, including New Year's ones. The most common is the snowflake, which is cut out in different shapes. But office paper is also suitable for creating a simple Christmas tree, the manufacturing process of which will not take more than 5 minutes.
To make such a New Year's crafts required:
- a square of white paper;
- scissors.
To begin with, the existing square needs to be folded along two diagonal lines.
After this, we make transverse folds, but in this case the paper will need to be folded in the other direction.
Using the folds made in this way, we fold the blank of the future Christmas tree in the form of a double triangle.
Now we bend the upper layers of the resulting triangle towards the central vertical line.
After this, the folds you just made need to be slightly expanded and given the following appearance.
Turn the Christmas tree blank over to the other side and repeat all the steps.
The protruding corners of the future Christmas tree need to be cut off using scissors. As a result, we get a triangle with 8 folds (4 on each side).
Let's take the scissors again and make transverse cuts on both sides, not reaching the center line of our Christmas tree.
All that remains is to make the folds along the cuts you just made; to do this, we bend them down, forming small triangles.
We do this on all 8 layers. Our office paper Christmas tree is ready.
Such a simple craft can become a decoration not only for your desktop. You can make it at home, involving children in this exciting process.
