What paper are forfeits made from? Fan on the wall: feng shui decoration (21 photos)

Birthday is a bright and expected event in the life of every child: it is on this day that all his cherished dreams come true. The main thing is that parents should take care in advance to make this holiday bright and unusual. If you are celebrating a children's birthday at home, then follow these simple recommendations for decorating a room with your own hands.

Balloons

The easiest and safest option for decorating a room on a child's birthday is colorful balloons. You can randomly scatter balloons around the room or let them float under the ceiling, filling with helium. You can add balls with ribbons, serpentine and bright stickers. Flowers from balloons look spectacular: to do this, you need to connect balloons of the same size and color to each other so that you get petals, and decorate the middle with a smaller balloon and a different color.

Fairy lights

A variety of paper garlands look great at a children's holiday - they are easy to make yourself from colored or corrugated paper.

Bright and fluffy paper pom-poms will instantly give the festive room an elegant look. Unlike balloons, these pompoms will never burst above your head, and they look pretty stylish.

To make one pom pom you will need:
8-9 sheets of thin colored paper (corrugated paper is ideal);
scissors;
thin wire or strong thread;
regular thread to hang the pompom.

Fold the prepared sheets of paper into a neat pile, and then into an accordion. The width of the fold should be about 1.5-2 cm. Process the edges with sharp scissors (the edges are rounded in the picture below), then take the wire, bend it in half and put the resulting “accordion” of paper into it. Tighten the wire exactly in the middle of the craft. Gently unfold the paper accordion, separating each leaf and forming a fluffy pom-pom.

In the decor of a birthday, you can not do without elegant numbers corresponding to the age of the birthday person. For example, you can make a number out of cardboard and decorate it with paper flowers. To do this, you need to take colored paper, cut a circle out of it and then cut a strip in a spiral. Then connect the resulting strips, twisting into a bud, and glue the finished flowers onto a cardboard number. To make flowers look brighter, experiment with size and color.

Fanta or turntables

Multi-colored turntables and rosettes made of colored paper, called fanta, are also great for creating a festive mood. Making them by hand is very easy. Moreover, the birthday man himself can be connected to their creation.

To quickly learn how to create these multi-colored wall decor elements, watch the master class on the video:

Wall newspaper or photo collage

You can hang a pre-prepared wall newspaper or photo collage on the wall, where the best photos of the child will be collected. You can take photographs from birth to show how the child has grown and changed, or you can simply take the most successful photographs (for example, over the past year) and accompany them with funny comments or poems. On the wall newspaper, do not forget to leave some space for sincere wishes from the guests.

Streamer inscriptions

Inscriptions-stretch marks on the wall can be bought at the store, or you can do it yourself. Arm yourself with colored paper and felt-tip pens, write letters on separate sheets, and then connect and hang on the wall with a thread or fishing line. Let it be the name of the hero of the occasion, pleasant wishes for the holiday or words of welcome for guests.

Tablecloth decor

A festive children's table can be decorated with a homemade tablecloth. It is very easy to make such a tablecloth (you don’t even have to sew!): Just glue bright ribbons-flounces to the table using adhesive tape or a stapler.

Chair decor

Decorating the walls and ceiling of the room, do not forget about the furniture. For example, you can decorate chairs with a bright fabric cover or tie ribbons and paper flowers around the back of chairs. Another interesting idea is to make a festive throne for the birthday man, where he will open gifts and take pictures with friends and family.

Holiday table decor

The decor and serving of the festive table should be given no less attention than the room itself. For example, you can decorate cocktail tubes, cutlery, napkins. You can also place funny signs with the names of guests on the table or put a small toy near each device. See what simple and interesting ideas we found in the photo below. We wish you a flight of fancy and an unforgettable holiday!

In hot weather, a fan is an indispensable thing, but it can also be an excellent interior decoration or an original gift.

Paper flowers are the best home decoration!

Flowers are often used in interior decor

But real plants quickly lose their appeal without water. An alternative to them are plain paper flowers. Bouquets of such flowers can decorate not only the hall, but also the festive table.

To make such flowers, you will need the following tools and materials:

• scissors;
• gun filled with glue;
• wire;
• colored paper.

To begin with, we cut out a figure such as a circle from paper, but not even. From the resulting circle cut out a spiral. Starting from the outer end, we begin to wind the spiral with our fingers or with a pencil. If the spiral is loosened a little, you get a finished flower, the end of which we fix with glue, glue the wire and a leaf of green paper.

Paper fans are very popular in European countries and are actively used to decorate all kinds of holidays. It is worth noting that such crafts give your celebration a cozy atmosphere and originality. The color palette of paper fans allows you to choose the right range for decorating a room or hall.

In today's article, we will show you how to make paper circular fans for a wedding. This is a very easy way to decorate the banquet tables, the room and make individual decor elements that emphasize the style of a sunny wedding. Also, these bright sunny fans are ideal for decorating a children's holiday.

We chose yellow because it's summer now, and we want more bright, sunny and warm colors. You can use any other color or a combination of them. We hope you enjoy the tutorial!

To make paper fans you will need:

Sheets of thick colored paper;

Lace paper frills;

Decorative ribbons, buttons;

Double sided tape;

Making paper fans is very easy but requires a little patience and time.

We have collected all the necessary materials and can proceed:

STEP 1. To make a circular fan, you need to cut the paper into strips. The width and length of the strips depends on the size of the fan that we need. The width of the strip corresponds to the diameter of the fan, and the length corresponds to the number of bends. In our version, the dimensions of the strips are: 5cm, 7cm and 9cm wide and 30cm long.

STEP 2. We proceed to the next very entertaining steps: bend, bend and fold. This is very interesting and funny, the main thing is that when you fold a sheet into an accordion, make the same folds. You can easily do this with double sided tape. Choose the desired width of the bend, stick the tape and go. For small fans, we performed a 12mm bend, and for large ones, 30mm.

STEP 3. After we have folded the strip, we bend it in half and dissolve it. We glue the inner edges with double-sided tape. We have a semicircle. And we glue two identical semicircles together, the circular fan is ready. So we do with all the stripes, we make the right number of fans.

STEP 4. We have already finished, now it remains only to decorate. To do this, you can use any decorative materials: buttons, ribbons, paper hearts, decorative frills. Using glue, glue them to the fans and a wonderful element of decor for the holiday is ready.

You can decorate everything with such fans: windows, walls, chairs, tables, ceilings, etc.

Also, from such fans, you can put whole compositions on the walls, build arches, even a stand for photographing guests at a holiday, wedding, birthday and other celebrations.

Be creative!

Greetings, dear readers of the Internet blog. I never get tired of acquainting you with master classes that can give, if you are preparing for a wedding, a special charm to a significant day. It is also special because you yourself apply your skillful hands to it. The lesson is devoted to the manufacture of multi-colored fan wheels, the so-called turntables!

An interesting thing is a fan turntable! especially considering the fact that it doesn't spin at all. The second name is a fan wheel. Be that as it may, as a decorating element at a wedding (at a holiday), these multi-colored paper circles delight guests so much that everyone is delighted with them. Making fan turntables is not at all difficult, see for yourself. And the pleasure received from both the process and the result is a huge sea!

To make paper fan turntables you will need:

1. Sheets of thick paper (cardboard) or drawing paper (can be colored);

2. Glue gun or tube of glue;

3. Scissors;

4. Tassel;

5. A tube of water-based paint, if you want to give the fan a special color, and a jar;

6. Punching stamp or hole punch, if you want to apply a pattern to the fan;

To make a spinning fan, you need to select and prepare paper. I wanted to cover the white paper with beige, give it a touch of antiquity. Why I took a tube of water-based paint, mixed it with water (so that it was not saturated bright), applied it to the sheet with a brush and evenly distributed it over the surface with a rag. However, you can not bother yourself so much, but simply immediately select the colored paper of your choice.

Fold a sheet of paper into an accordion. Make bends by 2-3 cm. Fold three or four sheets in this way.

Take a glue gun (a tube of glue or even double-sided tape) and glue all the quarters in a full circle.

The edges of the fan wheel can be given an attractive look. Why use scissors to round the edges. And having resorted to a punching stamp or a hole punch, apply an ornament to the fan-turntable.

If we want paper fan wheels were on a stick, then you can glue them one by one with a glue gun to it. And if we want the fan turntables to hang on the wall or become a decoration somewhere else, then we need to cut a small circle out of cardboard and glue it to the core of each accordion element. This will allow the pinwheel to keep its shape.

Make fanciful ornaments on the wall from fan wheels, combining them in colors. Make boutonnieres! Or connect with colorful ribbons to form a garland. You can not stop at this and remember the master class on making
