25 Easy Origami Christmas Ornaments Perfect For Your Tree
The second list will be about origami Christmas ornaments you can make for your own Christmas tree or to give it as a gift.
From when I started to fold I always said I will make my own Christmas ornaments, and have a tree decorated only with them. I did made some one year, but never have I ever had only my decorations in the tree. So this is the year I will do that.

Do-it-yourself paper Christmas decorations: schemes, templates, master classes
Neither bright balls from the supermarket, nor lights flashing in different colors, nor expensive designer sets for decorating Christmas trees can compare with handmade decorations.
Of course, such decorations from the supermarket will make an evergreen guest bright, modernly decorated, but they are unlikely to be able to carry the New Year's mood so joyfully as toys made on their own.
There are a lot of ways to make Christmas decorations, but the most simple, attractive and not requiring much time are toys made of paper. To create them, you may need quite a bit, improvised materials that are stored in every hostess at home. Stock up on a bit of patience and wings for a creative flight of fancy.
Christmas balls
What is the most common decoration on a Christmas tree? Of course, balls! You can always buy glass, plastic ones in the store, but we will try to make them from thick paper. This includes colored cardboard, old postcards and covers of unnecessary magazines. Colored cardboard balls, plain, will give the Christmas tree or the room that you want to decorate a single style, and multi-colored balls will bring the atmosphere of a holiday, magic and a winter fairy tale.
#1 Do-it-yourself paper toy for a Christmas tree: a master class with a description
Before you sit down to make a new toy, prepare:
- thick paper;
- Use old magazines, cartons or candy boxes with colorful designs;
- glue, PVA works best;
- scissors;
- compasses or any other object that you can draw around to get a perfect circle.
Take your cardboard and trace twenty-one identical circles on it, then cut them out with scissors. Each circle is to be folded as follows: bend the circle in half twice, on one side and the other, then straighten it, this will mark the center of the circle.
Bend only one side again, so that the edge of the circle is exactly in the intended center. Bend again so the two sides, so you get a triangle. In one of the twenty circles, cut out this triangle, it will serve as a kind of stencil for the rest of the circles. All that remains for you is to impose a triangle on the rest of the circles, circle it and bend the edges of the circles outward along the office.
Take the first ten circles and glue them in a strip, alternating: five down - five up. Glue the resulting strip into a ring, this will serve as the basis for the toy.
Divide the remaining ten by five and glue them into a circle. By gluing them, you will get two caps.
The top and bottom cover must be glued to the base in the same way. Consider a loop to hang your toy from.

To make such New Year's paper toys, you need to print out the templates.
We will use two colors: white and red. Cut out white stripes and glue them sequentially to the circle. We perform the same actions with red stripes. When both parts are ready, lay them on top of each other in the opposite direction. We connect them. We take out all the red stripes from the bottom up. Next, repeat the same with white stripes. After four similar actions, we begin to form a ball. Alternate red and white stripes until the length is over. At the end, we seal the hole with a paper circle, on which we sew beads. The toy is ready!

Origami Christmas tree - step by step photo instructions
Origami Christmas tree can be made from paper without glue. Take a square green leaf. Fold it diagonally and in half. We turn the corners of the square inward so that we get a rhombus. We put it in a "deaf" corner away from you. Take the left corner of the rhombus and bend it in the center. With the left we repeat the same. Cut off the bottom of the figure and make four cuts on each side. We bend a corner on each resulting strip. It remains only to straighten the Christmas tree.
Star

Fold the square in half 2 times. Next, fold diagonally. We unfold and cut the edges of the square along the folds. The cuts should be the same length and exactly in the middle of each fold.

Snowflakes
Simple snowflake cutter - openwork snowflake template
Such a New Year's snowflake will perfectly decorate windows or a Christmas tree. Let's bend a sheet of A4 format diagonally. Cut off the rest of the paper. Fold the triangle in half. Fold the right corner first, then the left. Cut off the top to make a sharp triangle. Gradually cut off the extra parts so that you get a figure as in the photo. We unfold the snowflake.
