Popular crafts made from cotton pads for the New Year include a Christmas tree, a wreath and a garland. These are real holiday decorations, the production of which will not take much time and effort.
The Christmas tree will be durable and can become a home decoration more than once

 | Let's prepare all the "ingredients" at once and start the process. |
 | We take a circle, bend it in half, gluing it with glue, then turn the resulting half into a quarter, bending the product again and applying glue to the junction. |
 | Glue the first module to the base of the cone. We continue to glue and bend the circles and attach them to the cone. |
 | Decor can be glued from the second row.Instead of modules, in some places we will glue decorative ornaments, after which the next module will immediately be located. |
 | Row by row we move higher along the cone, not forgetting about the decor elements. |
Creating a wreath for the New Year
In addition to the Christmas tree, you can decorate the doors of the room with a wonderful delicate wreath. For its manufacture, you will need a base of foam or insulation for PVC pipes.
It is not necessary to cover the entire wreath with cotton wool elements - a partial covering with such a snow-white decor looks interesting. The base of the wreath, covered with woolen threads, looks good
A pattern of roses is suitable for wreaths. They take one disk per flower, cut it as in the photo and fold it, starting from the edge and moving towards the center. Many similar flowers are glued to the place reserved for them on the wreath
Any decor is acceptable, everything is combined with white
The work is even somewhat monotonous, since it consists of the same movements of bending elements of cotton wool. You can fix the modules with hot glue or pins, if the base of the wreath allows it

 | We will prepare New Year's decorative wire, threads, packing of cotton pads, scissors that can handle the wire, glue a moment. The result is a very cute snowman! |
 | We take several circles and stitch them with a thread and a needle, do not tighten them too much. |
 | Thus, we get three parts of the future snowman. We take the thread, fold it in two, considering that it must go through all three parts of the figure, and so that a little remains at the edges. |
 | Now we do the following with each part: move the circles apart in the middle and wrap the center with thread, fastening all the parts together. Do not pull them tightly to each other. |
 | Gently fluff each disc, creating volume for the snowman. |
 | We are decorating the product: glue the eye beads with glue, cut a piece from the wire and set it as a carrot spout, make our hands out of wire. The handles are attached to the body by threading a wire around the figure's neck. We also make a broom from an elegant wire. Fold the red wire several times and tie it to the yellow one, then cut the loops of the red wire, getting a broom. |
DIY other crafts from cotton pads for decor for the New Year

For a festive interior, fabulous topiary trees are perfect, a nursery will be nice to decorate with figures of animals and birds, panels with "winter" flowers will look good in the living room.
Cotton pad topiary
The art of creating topiary develops in different directions thanks to the material used. New Year's topiary in white tones are extremely suitable for a festive interior.
To create a topiary, gypsum, a base pot, a foam ball are used, what can serve as the trunk of the work - a stick of an interesting shape, a narrow PVC pipe, a sleeve from paper napkins, as well as material for decoration.
You can do a lot of work and get a beautiful tree
The pot also deserves the utmost attention.
Products are decorated not only with cotton wool, but also with beads, beads, beads, glitter, ribbons
We offer a small master class on creating a simple and beautiful topiary.
| Illustration | Action Description |
|---|---|
 | We will prepare PVA glue, a bowl-bowl, a spoon for stirring the glue, inflate the ball to the size we need and attach an unsharpened pencil to it. We also need toilet paper, a thermal gun. Pour 2-3 tablespoons of glue into a bowl with 100-150 g of lukewarm water and stir the substance well. |
 | We take a piece of toilet paper, quickly soak it in a bowl and stick around the ball. Do not forget to thoroughly strengthen the base to which the pencil is attached - all the work depends on how carefully the pencil is fixed. |
 | It turns out a tightly pasted ball, which we leave for a day to dry. |
 | If you suddenly wanted to take a rod for a larger tree trunk, then after the ball has completely dried out, you can do this. We take an empty bottle from a thick suitable felt-tip pen, grease the base of the ball with hot glue and put the bottle on the pencil. Now we glue the jar (from under the canned food) with beautiful decorative paper, tucking the edges inside the jar. Take a piece of Styrofoam and insert our barrel into it, greased at the end with hot glue. |
 | Pour hot glue on the base of the foam and fix it in a jar. |
 | We make many, many roses. On hot glue we plant roses, tight enough to each other, but so that the petals still open. |
 | We decorate the topiary with ribbons bows, put beads in a jar, which will serve not only as a decor, but also as a weighting agent. |
