Voluminous articles made of paper

Original voluminous hand-made articles made of paper, for sure, will fit harmoniously into any interior. Consider unusual, but at the same time simple ideas for this type of creativity.

Three-dimensional snowflake

Of all the voluminous articles made of paper, this New Year's exquisite element of decor will please your child the most. In order to make a snowflake a reality, you will need:

• scissors;
• adhesive tape;
• a stapler;
• 6-7 paper sheets (you can make such voluminous articles both from white and from colored paper).

Now proceed to the process itself:

1. Fold each of the sheets of paper in half diagonally, so that the perfect triangle is obtained. At the same time, cut off the extra rectangular edge.
2. Bend the triangle in half, noting where the folded "bottom" of the triangle is located.
3. Make three notches in each triangle. Scissors should be located along the "bottom" of the geometric figure, while trying to maintain an equal distance between the notches. Since such voluminous crafts are performed not only from paper, but also from cardboard, sometimes you have to make some efforts.
4. Expand the triangle again. Without bending it, wrap the first two inner pieces of paper formed as a result of the notch into a tube and glue it.
5. Turn the workpiece over to the other side and pull the next two strips of paper resulting from the cuts on the opposite side of the tube and glue.
6. Continue to rotate the paper and connect its strips together on the opposite side until they are all held together.
7. Do the same with the other 5-6 sheets of paper. Connect the received "rays" of snowflakes together and fasten them with a stapler in the places where they are in contact.

Volumetric crocodile

Best of all, such voluminous crafts are made from corrugated paper, but you can use the usual. This cute animal is done as follows:

1. On the sheet, draw a crocodile, which is painted green, or a ready-made template can be downloaded on the Web. Cut out the workpiece.
2. Fold the pattern in half along the length, making sure that the back of the "animal" is located along the fold. Make small incisions, creating a pointed spine. To do this, at an equal distance on the back, draw 6 evenly spaced lines with a pencil and make incisions along them.
3. Re-expand the workpiece. The nodules formed 6 triangles. Fold them so that you get triangular shaped holes in the back of the crocodile, and press it well with your finger.
4. Bend the craft in half so that now along the back of the crocodile there will be real spikes.
5. At the end, glue your eyes on the craft and draw a white tooth.

In addition, from the ordinary or colored paper are made and no less exquisite three-dimensional crafts, for example, polyhedra, trees, flowers, baskets, houses, birds and animals, little men and much more. In addition, many interesting handicrafts can come up with toilet paper.
