How to make corrugated cardboard. Do-it-yourself flowers from corrugated paper that cannot be distinguished from real ones! Cardboard Logs

Even children can create flowers from corrugated cardboard, but for this you need to have the desire, patience and perseverance so that the flowers turn out beautiful. To do the work you will need corrugated cardboard, corrugated paper, glue, wooden skewers and scissors.

How to make a simple corrugated cardboard flower

Start with the middle of the flower. To do this, take two small strips of different colors, for example, yellow and orange, with a width of not more than 1 cm and twist them together. Do this so that the edges of the cardboard are outside, not inside. You need to twist quite tightly so that a hole does not form in the middle. Glue the ends of the strips that remain together. After the glue has dried well, gently squeeze the spiral of the middle of the flower with your fingers up.

Now, from a small strip of green, make the same “pill” and glue it to the bottom of the finished part.

Next, you need to make the petals, there should be 7 pieces. Take a strip of a suitable color and twist. Fix the end of the strip with glue. To make the petal look more like a real one, stretch one edge a little and give it a pointed shape. At the same time, hold the spiral so that it does not open. Petals also need to be made voluminous. This is done in the same way as in the middle of the flower. So that the volume does not fall, glue the bottom of the petals with thin lines.

Now you can collect the flower. On the sides of the middle, apply a little glue and put the petals there. Hold them until they hold on their own.

It remains to make a stalk. To do this, wrap a wooden skewer with green corrugated paper and fix it to the flower with glue.

How to make a sunflower from corrugated cardboard

For a sunflower, you need 17 petals that you need to cut out according to a template measuring 1.7 x 3.5 cm. Next, twist the middle of the sunflower from two strips of yellow and brown 0.5 cm wide. Glue the edges of the strips to each other. Then lightly press on the spiral to give volume, and fix the middle of the flower with glue.

Now you need to make a stalk, for which a wooden skewer or a small stick is well suited. It must be wrapped in green corrugated paper. From a regular cardboard, cut a circle with a diameter of 4 cm and glue the sunflower stalk to its middle. Glue the petals around the entire circumference of the cardboard so that each new row of them is slightly shifted. In the center, attach the middle. It remains to make leaves. To do this, from small strips of green, you need to form loops of different sizes and stick them to the stem. Corrugated cardboard sunflower is ready!

If you make a lot of different flowers, you can collect a beautiful bouquet and put it in a vase.

Home decor is a permanent and non-stop job. In the process, new techniques and types of work are being mastered. In this article we will talk about how to make flowers from corrugated paper. This paper can be found in flower shops. But in a larger assortment it is in specialized institutions selling everything for needlework. For work, you will need wire or thin sticks (bamboo skewers are also suitable), glue and scissors.

General principles and rules

Despite the fact that the flowers made of corrugated paper do different, the principles of work are the same. Here are brief general rules that will help you make paper flowers that are very similar to real ones.

That, in fact, is all the rules. And one more thing: the stalk is being prepared first. A wire or sticks of different thicknesses are used for it, which is wrapped with a long thin strip of green corrugated paper. The tape can be coated with glue, and then screwed onto the base. You can twist dry, and secure the edge with a drop of glue. Another point: if you are going to collect a composition from flowers, leave the bottom 1/3 of the stem without decoration - it will be easier to make a bouquet.

Poppies

Corrugated paper poppies are easy to make. It is important to find the right shade of scarlet. You will also need a small piece of black - for the core. But, if it is not, you can use any dark one, painting it later with black.

Corrugated paper poppy do this:

• From paper napkins of any color we add a small square. We wrap it in black corrugated paper. If there is no black, take any dark one, then paint it.

  

• We cut from scarlet paper two or three petals of different sizes: small, medium and large.
• We collect the petals all together (do not put them in a neat pile) and crush them into a ball.
• We disassemble the ball into petals.

  

• We take the core, around it we wrap the first small petal from left to right.
• The second small petal partially overlaps the first, behind it also overlapping, the middle one goes.

  

• The second middle and two large petals form the second row. They are located so that their central part overlaps the junction of the previous row.

  

• Putting it all together, insert the wire into the base, wrap the base with thread, glue it. Wrap with green paper.

  

Poppy is one of the simplest colors for self-manufacture from corrugated paper. He looks, however, very good. You can use them in a campaign with other flowers, or make a bouquet of poppies only.

Even such a simple flower can be made in different ways. First of all, you can change the middle. In the master class described above, the core of the flower is very simple. It can be made more similar to natural. Using the same technology, we make the middle, but from white paper. And from black (can be painted) we cut a strip about 1 cm wide and 4-5 cm long. On one side we cut it into thin stripes (a couple of millimeters wide). We twist the resulting "noodles", getting thin stamens. Stamens are wrapped around the core, and then we follow the same algorithm.

How to make crocuses from paper and sweets

An unusual gift can be made using candies as the core of flowers. It turns out an original sweet gift. Such a core can be made in flowers with a large hollow inside the bud - a tulip or crocus, for example. Moreover, crocuses from corrugated paper are very simple to make. It takes about 5-10 minutes. Not more.

A bouquet of corrugated paper with sweets is a good surprise

• From paper cut a square with a side of 15 cm.
• We divide it into three parts, making a cut to a depth of 7.5 cm. Three petals are obtained.

  

• Each petal, measuring 5 cm from the top, scrolls around its axis and bend the upper part down.
• Fingers give them a concave shape.

  

• We take the formed petals, wrap around the stem so that each petal takes its place - about 1/3 of the entire diameter. To do this, the bottom edge will have to be well crushed.

  

• We make leaves out of green paper. Cut a rectangle with sides 5 * 8 cm.
• We divide it into three parts, making cuts to a depth of 8 cm.
• Having departed from the edge of 3 cm, we spin a strip of paper around its axis, bend the upper part down, straighten it and give it a rounded shape.

  

• We wrap the leaves around the bud. They should be at the junction of the petals.

  

• We take a narrow strip of green paper, twisting it around the wire, draw up the stem.

That's all, crocus from corrugated paper and sweets is ready. Having made 7-9 pieces of such colors, they can be put in the basket. For a greater variety, you can make any small flowers.

Chrysanthemum

According to the technology described above, chrysanthemums can be made. The difference is that there will be many petals and they will be narrow. But the principle is the same: twist the upper part of the petal, lower it down. Only in the case of chrysanthemums, it is necessary to give the entire petal a curved shape.

For these paper chrysanthemums, candies are also used as the core. These flowers from corrugated paper are better to make from not too bright material. Tones are more delicate, soft. For foliage, muted greens are also chosen. For greater credibility, take paper in two close shades and make the petals of two shades.

So, do it yourself do-it-yourself chrysanthemum from corrugated paper:

This version of chrysanthemum looks good. But for greater credibility, you can make petals of different sizes. At least three gradations are needed: small, medium and large. They will differ more in length than in width. Such a flower will look more magnificent, in a bouquet it will look richer. Give it a try.

Asters - simple and original

If you need to make simple but effective flowers from corrugated paper, try making asters. They are made from corrugations of bright and pastel shades. They look best in a bouquet, and colors can be different.

Asters from corrugated paper can also be made of petals of different sizes - shorter ones closer to the center of the flower (they should be smaller), and longer on the periphery (there are more of them). You can bend them in one direction, but you can - in the opposite. As you like more.

Roses from corrugated paper: a step-by-step manufacturing algorithm (2 ways)

Flowers from corrugated paper are so good that they can be made in different ways. The material is very plastic, it easily changes shape because there are several ways. Someone wants to achieve greater "naturalness", but speed is important to someone.

1 way (natural look)

For roses from corrugated paper, it is better to choose paper of two or three very close shades. So the appearance of the flower will be more natural. For example, white and crepe paper are used for the flower in the photo. The number of petals of different shades is arbitrary, as is their placement in the bud.

The manufacturing procedure is as follows:

As a result, we get a beautiful rose from corrugated paper. In this performance, she looks like a real flower. There is also a simpler and faster way (in the photo below).

2 way (simple and fast)

Cut a strip of paper 7-8 cm wide. You can make it uneven - narrower on the one hand, and wider on the other. We fold it starting from the narrow edge with an accordion. The width of the "accordion" is 3.5 -4.5 cm. From the resulting pile at 2/3 of the height, cut the petals.

On the wire (you can still not wrap the green ribbon) we wind the petals, starting from a narrow edge. As we wind them up, we give them a shape with our fingers - we stretch them on one side, and we press them near the stem. Having installed all the petals, we fix them with a thread (just by winding a certain number of turns). We correct the petals, forming a bud.

From green paper, folding it with an accordion, we cut out long and narrow petals. Keep in mind that their ends will need to be twisted, so that they should not be so narrow (about 1 cm). Wrap the cut petals from below, under the petals, twist the leaves with our fingers, and then draw up the stem.

Corrugated paper peonies (with patterns)

For peonies, yellow corrugated paper is needed - for the core, green - for foliage, pink, cream, raspberry - for the flower itself. A wire or a thin stick is suitable for the stem. Still need PVA glue.

Corrugated paper peony is a flower complex enough to make. It has many different shapes of petals. Here you can’t do without a pattern. But there are many varieties of peonies, so there are several patterns. We give two options. The first can be printed, cut out and used as a template - it is given in a full-size image. The second option you can draw with your own hands in the cells.

Step-by-step manufacturing process with a photo:

• From yellow paper we cut a strip 4–5 cm wide and 10–12 cm long. Fold several times, cut into thin “noodles”, leaving about 1 cm of the uncut edge.
• We roll the resulting tape into a tight roll, using the whole edge for this. We lubricate it with glue, and twist it. It turns out a shaggy yellow core, around which the petals will be attached. This center is fixed on a stick / wire, which will be the stem.

  

• Cut the petals out of paper. The minimum quantity is 20 pieces (of all kinds), but the more, the more fluffy the flower will turn out. On the second pattern, the number of petals is indicated on each, on the first, explanations are needed. There are numbers too. This is the required number of petals.
• Stretch each petal in the middle without touching the edges, giving them a convex shape. Do not strive to make them the same. This is not required. In the process, you can still stretch or tighten a little.
• We start folding the petals from the smallest. We place them around the existing center. The first small petals are placed only slightly overlapping their edges. We coat the base with glue.

  

• Next, take the middle petals. We stack them with a small approach of one to the other.
• Then we stack large and last - very large leaves. We coat each layer with a small amount of glue at the base.
• Leaves will also be required. We cut them out of green paper. On the one hand, we squeeze them, forming a petiole, on the other, we straighten them in the middle, giving a curved shape (similar to a boat).

  

• We fasten the leaves under the bud, bend them down.
• You can make leaves, like a peony, but this will require even a thin wire and several cut curly leaves. Streaks cannot be made on corrugated paper, but they can be marked with paint.

  

• Glue each leaf to the wire, wrap the stalk with a thin strip, then attach it to the stem.

  

  Build Process - Creative

• We take a long narrow strip of green corrugated paper (about 1 cm wide, 20-30 cm long - depending on the length of the stem). We wrap the base of the flower, then smoothly go to the stem. At the end, we fix the edge of the paper with a drop of glue.

Corrugated paper peony is ready. Usually they make up a bouquet. When you do the following, do not strive to make them exactly the same. All flowers in nature are unique. Yours should be different too.

You can play with the size and number of petals, a mixture of petals of different shades, similar in color. You can try to make the petals darker at the base with paint. In general, the mass of options.

Corrugated paper flowers: photo ideas, patterns

Using the techniques described above, you can make any flower. The main catch is in the shape, quantity and size of the petals. The most important thing is still the form. It is characteristic of each petal. Dimensions are arbitrary. Not only are flowers of different sizes in nature, it has recently become fashionable to decorate the interior with giant growth flowers. The decoration is original, but specific. It is necessary to increase the basic patterns many times, it is difficult to work with large scales. It is better to start practicing on flowers of normal sizes, and then proceed to large ones.

A little bit about patterns. They can not only be found. If it happens in the summer, take the desired flower, disassemble it into petals. From the whole pile, select the most characteristic, attach to a sheet of paper, circle. Then the form must be adjusted taking into account the fact that it is still paper flowers. Finally, the pattern will take shape after several trial and error. Several patterns and master classes in the photo will be posted in this section.

Cornflowers

The simpler the flower, the more ways to make it. Cornflower from corrugated paper can be made using different techniques. Examples are in the photo.

If you want to make it very similar to the real one (A - pattern for a blossoming flower, B - for a bud)

Iris

Making paper iris requires some imagination. A very non-standard flower. The photo shows several techniques that allow you to achieve a different effect. Some flowers just resemble the original, some are very similar to it.

For the advanced. It turns out a very beautiful flower

Cute daisies - an option for beginners

Corrugated paper flowers are typically used to decorate gifts. But if they decorate a photo frame, wall clock, make a panel or elegant, they will decorate the interior and bring lightness to it. Before you learn how to create flowers from corrugated paper with your own hands, you need to understand what material is suitable for this and what else will be needed to make the craft look like a real plant.

Getting to know the material

Corrugated paper has the second name crepe or crepe paper. The only difference is that the corrugation (gaufrer) is French, and crepe (crepe) is the English name. The Russian language also has an analogue - reaper, pressed paper. There are several options for corrugated paper on sale, but the main classification is divided by the density of the sheets:

Paper for creativity and gift wrapping: density 30-50 g, small folds, the height of which is not regulated. It’s not suitable for floristry, because it is poorly stretched, torn and soaks from glue.

Floral paper is used for packaging flowers and suites. Its density is in the range of 120–180 g. Deep folds provide the necessary degree of stretch to create realistic colors.

Corrugated cardboard has a high density and is suitable only for the manufacture of gift boxes.

Please note that the “fine crepe” is indicated on the packaging of the creative paper. The marking of the floristic paper contains the inscription “crepe extra”, and the sheets themselves have transverse textured stripes.

The folds on the floristic paper are called flutes, which are divided into three types:

• E-flute up to 1.6 mm high - for making small flowers;
• B-flute up to 3.2 mm high - for growth paper flowers;
• A-flute up to 4.8 mm high - for packaging.

The color palette includes not only plain paper, but also metallized double-sided, with a gradient and rainbow color.

Also, for creativity, we need auxiliary materials:

• Tape tape, which is used as a color tape to decorate the base of the flower and stem;
• Scissors and office knife;
• PVA glue (thick), thermal gun;
• Threads for attaching petals, sheets;
• Floral and plain wire;
• Wooden sticks for stems;
• Foam balls or candies for the middle of the flower.

And also: ribbons, frames, baskets, vases and even cups and saucers - the decor is limited only by the imagination of the master.

Basic techniques and secrets for creating flowers from corrugated paper

Master florists have come up with hundreds of ways to make flowers from corrugated paper with their own hands. However, there are basic techniques, combining and transforming which you can achieve almost perfect similarity with the original.

Stem

Please note that the stem for any type of flower is created according to a single principle:

• The basis is a floristic wire, a wooden stick or a paper tube.
• You need to attach the stem to the flower head at the initial stage (it is threaded through the layers of paper forming the petals) or the flower is collected directly on the stem.
• The stalk can be decorated either with a thin strip of corrugated paper on glue or with a green tape.
• For greater resemblance to a real branch, it is necessary to cut leaves and attach them to the stem, masking the junction with a ribbon.

How easy it is to roll a thin paper tube is explained in this video:

Stamens

A finished strip of corrugated paper of two or more colors is used, or you can cut it from a sheet yourself. Grind onto layers.

Picking up should be done immediately - then it will not work to pull the thread without damaging the paper.

Then the workpiece is helically wound on a rod or attached to the surface, and the collected waves create volume.

Also twisting are made for this ball.

But in this case, a strip of corrugated paper is folded in half, and then folded into a roll. To prevent the flower from breaking up during the assembly process, it must be glued as the roll grows. In conclusion, with your fingers, you should carefully spread the curls, forming an open rose. The basis is a foam ball on which roses are glued.

Flowers made of corrugated paper made in the same technique are shown in a master class on creating a rose with an original twisted edge:

This technique is popular for making chrysanthemums, daisies, daisies, carnations and other flowers with many small petals. The basis is a long strip with chopped fringe or cut rounded petals. For example, this charming rose.

Flowers from single petals

These delicate flowers are made without a foundation, by combining individual petals, cut according to the pattern.

For sakura flowers you will need:

• three long rectangular stripes with rounded edges for the petals,
• one long rectangular strip with pointed edges for leaves,
• for the core a short strip with transverse incisions.

The blanks of the petals and leaf should be folded in half, outline the center and straighten the edges, forming a bend. Assembling is carried out using glue by simply connecting the blanks to one another, a twisted core is attached to the center of the resulting flower.

Blanks for pansies are cut out of multi-colored paper, if desired, the middle can be tinted and drawn veins. The flower is assembled by connecting the petals to each other also on glue or thread. As a stem, floristic wire would be appropriate here.

This chamomile is collected using a similar technology, but a stick is used as the basis for the possibility of making a bouquet.

To make this tulip as similar as possible to the real one, it was necessary to create a core using special technology.

Flowers on a fixed basis

There are many options for colors that are made in this technique:, chamomile, but the most common is the English rose.

The peculiarity is that the petals are wound on a base - a foam or paper ball, which can be replaced with a small round candy.

MASTER CLASS ON THE TOPIC

Just by this principle this

1. Cut strips of corrugated paper approximately 6 cm wide and 10 cm long. Colors can be combined as you wish: a delicate milk core and rich yellow, orange or red outer petals.

2. Fold the blanks with the accordion along the width of the petal, round the edges.

3. With your fingers, straighten the corrugations slightly, forming a wavy edge, then wrap the petals with toothpicks, giving them a natural shape.

4. The preparation of the petals should be stretched, giving a semicircular shape - this will facilitate the formation of the flower.

5. We wrap the base of the flower with a rectangular strip without cuts, pulling the corrugations so that the paper wraps tightly around the ball or candy. We fix a drop of glue, and drag the bottom with a thread.

6. All subsequent petals are overlapped in a circle, tightening with a thread. At the end of the work, we decorate the assembly place with a sepal of green or any other color in accordance with the intended composition.

Tip. If you want to make a bouquet on stems, then sticks should be glued with hot glue to the base of the flower - a ball or candy before the formation of the flower.

Here is a slightly simplified, but no less spectacular version of this flower.

Master Svetlana Bormotova proposed a simple technique that turns an ordinary rose into an exquisite flower:

This decorative artichoke is also created on a fixed basis. Incredibly beautiful decoration!

It’s not immediately possible to guess that sweetie is hidden in a graceful daffodil - you are definitely sorry to violate such grace:

Original compositions and decor examples

Traditional decoration - bouquets in a vase. You can collect a bouquet of daisies, roses, tulips, and for experienced master florists it will not be difficult to create a gladiolus branch:

If you like indoor flowers, but there is no time to grow them, then the corrugated paper orchid flower is just what you need. This is a difficult job that requires certain skills, but the result is worth it.

You can decorate a room not only with bouquets of paper flowers. For example, for wedding ceremonies taking place indoors, you can create a photo zone from paper flowers. They are mounted on a perforated wall using a wire curved in the form of a hook.

Using the techniques described, you can create a topiary. A foam ball is taken as a basis, which is pasted over with corrugated paper petals.

In this “cool magazine” the bouquet created and the sweet filling of the box are harmoniously combined with warmth. Such a gift will definitely be remembered for a long time!

Your guests will immediately pay attention to decorating the interior, but they will not immediately understand how this cup does not fall ...

With a little patience and effort, you will create exquisite decorations for your room, make an unforgettable celebration or simply and loved ones unconventionally decorated with a simple gift.

Inspiration and beautiful flowers!

Headings ~

For work, we need corrugated strips and corrugated paper. I buy corrugated stripes in the Korean paper center. You can cut the stripes of corrugated cardboard format A3, 1 cm wide. How many stripes are needed exactly, I did not count.

And we also need a hot gun, silicone glue (white tubes), scissors, wire or barbecue wooden sticks.

We proceed to the manufacture of the middle of the flower. Take a strip of yellow or orange and green. We align the ends of the strips, fold them in half and cut them.

It turned out two halves. From them we will make 2 middle of the flower.

Take half of the orange and green stripes, align the ends and begin to twist them into a round pill. "Ribs" stripes when twisting are not inside, but outside! There should be no hole in the center, twisting must be tight!

The tablet is almost ready. Look, she left the ends at a distance from each other. Take a hot gun and glue the short orange end of the strip first, and then the green end of the strip.

This is the glue on the green end of the strip. Press the glued ends with your finger until the glue is seized and the ends of the strips are glued!

I made 7 midpoints. They look like this!
   Our middle will consist of 2 tablets. One big and the second small. We have done a great deal, which means it's time to make the little centers of our flower!

We take 4 strips of green color and cut in half, having previously aligned the ends of the strips.

We twist a tablet from each half of the strip. It turned out 7 smaller tablets, relative to the first tablets!

Now we will add volume to our large pill.
   Take the pill and start pushing the spiral of the pill with your fingers up. Do this very carefully, slowly, so that the twisted spiral does not fall out. It looks like this. Now you need to fix the volume of our pill.

In the very middle we squeeze out a drop of glue and draw from it upwards “rays”, like in the sun. It is necessary to finish the glue from the gun, otherwise the spiral that is not fixed may dissolve!

This is how the center smeared with glue looks.

View in finished form.

While the hot glue and it has not yet frozen, take a small pill in green and insert gently, gently pressing inside a large volumetric center, inside. So leave it for a while, so that the details clutch with each other. So you need to make all the middle, depending on how many colors you decide to make!

And we are starting to make our flower petals!
   To do this, take a strip of yellow or orange, connect the ends and cut it in half along, pressing the edges of the strip with your fingers. Like this!

Take a half of the strip and start twisting it into a pill. For each flower you need to twist 7 petals!

The end of the strip is also fixed with glue, pressing firmly until the end of the strip is glued.

And this is how the blanks of the large middle and seven petals looked.

It is necessary to give the tablet the shape of a petal. We take the petal and pull one end of the tablet so that it turns out to be pointed, and on the opposite side, grab the tablet with the thumb and forefinger to the middle so that the spiral does not open! The petal is ready!

Petals, like the big middle, need to be given volume. Carefully push the spiral of the pill, like in the middle of a flower.

  Making crafts from corrugated paper with your own hands is very fun and exciting. This beautiful and pliable material has gained great popularity among needlewomen. In addition, corrugated paper is inexpensive and boasts a huge color variety.

We bring to your attention a few simple lessons on creating crafts from corrugated paper. They will help you to study this fascinating process in detail and tell you a lot of new ideas for creativity.

We will need: corrugated paper of different colors, wooden skewers or sticks, glue and scissors.

Step one.  Cut the paper into equal strips. We add each strip into several layers and cut it into thin strips (not completely!), As shown in the photo.

Step Two  We wrap each strip of the resulting fringe on a wooden skewer, which we then take out. As a result, we get curls along the entire length of the paper tape, which we wrap around the skewers, so that an inflorescence of hyacinth is obtained. Before that, we dip the tip of the skewer into the glue. To make the inflorescence more magnificent, it is better to use two strips with curls.

Step Three We cut thin strips from green corrugated paper. We put glue on the lower part of the inflorescence and from this place we wind the skewer with a green strip to the end of the stem, where we fix it with glue.

Step Four  We cut out two green rectangles of different sizes, and of them - leaves, give them a convex shape. Next, glue the leaves to the stem.

Step Five  In the same way we make the rest of the flowers. Inflorescences can be made from two multi-colored stripes. The more colors we use, the more interesting the composition will be.

A DIY handmade luxury hyacinth bouquet is ready!

Topiary “Heart” from corrugated paper

We will need:

• pink corrugated paper
• cutting pencil
• pot for a tree
• cardboard, foam, glue and scissors
• tree trunk - any suitable stick
• elements for decoration

Step one. We cut the pink corrugated paper into the same squares and cut out a large heart from the foam. Next, we make out the heart with the help of volumetric applique using the face-cutting technique. To do this, we press the pink square to the blunt tip of the pencil and crush it, as shown in the photo. We got a trimming pipe.

Step Two Apply glue to the tip of each trimming pipe and glue the element on the heart. We continue to attach the formed pieces of paper elements until we cover the entire surface of the heart in this way. We try to place the trimming tubes very close to each other.

Step Three We cut the finished heart with scissors so that it looks even and neat. In a pot for a tree we fall asleep any filler. Next, we cut out a circle from cardboard on the diameter of the container for the topiary with a hole for the trunk, arrange it using the technique of trimming with green corrugated paper and install it in a pot. We also glue the trunk with a green paper strip, fix it in a pot, and glue it to the heart with the other end.

Step Four We decorate the tree with birds and satin ribbons. We decorate at our discretion a flower pot. You can make such a wonderful souvenir with your own hands and give it to your relatives or friends on Valentine's Day.

Easter egg stand

We will need: corrugated paper, cardboard for the base, scissors, decorative elements and glue.

Operating procedure:

1. We make cardboard the base for the stand.
2. We cut out a rather wide strip of corrugated paper and paste it on a round cardboard base.
3. Fill the inside of the stand with pieces of organza, lace or soft wire. We complement our creation with bright elements. You can use paper flowers, beads, pebbles and other decorations. DIY handmade egg stand is ready.

Corrugated paper pineapple

We will need: green and yellow corrugated paper, a low bottle with a low neck, golden foil, scissors, glue.

Operating procedure:

1. From green paper we cut out leaves 2 cm wide and 8 cm long, and yellow paper - pineapple flakes 2-3 cm wide and 9 cm long. Then we fold the scales in half and twist them in a fold.
2. Cork the bottle and wrap the top of the neck with gold foil. Next, glue leaflets from top to bottom on the neck of the bottle, and flakes on the rest of it. We arrange them in a checkerboard pattern.
3. We make the bottom with leaves and color the pineapple with a felt-tip pen with brown strokes.

Corrugated Paper Butterflies

According to the simple scheme that we attach, such lovely butterflies can be made in 15 minutes. For creativity, we need: corrugated paper, threads, scissors, glue and decorative elements.

Operating procedure:

1. We cut out two pairs of wings of different sizes from multi-colored corrugated paper, lay them on top of each other, and then knit them in the center with a thread and spread the wings. If the butterfly will be used as a pendant, the thread does not need to be cut.
2. Next, we make the body of the butterfly. To do this, cut out a narrow strip, bend it in half, make an incision, as shown in the diagram, and wrap it with the central part of the butterfly. Twist the antennae from the notched ends.
3. Glue glitter or sequins on the wings - and the fluttering butterfly beauty is ready.

Some more craft ideas

The most popular crafts made from corrugated paper are flowers. For their manufacture, there are many simple and detailed schemes. Here are just a few of them.
