Snowflakes from paper stripes. Volumetric paper snowflakes: ideas and workshops. More Toilet Roll Crafts
As a decor, you can use large voluminous snowflakes from improvised materials. They are hung from the chandelier, on the curtains. Put on shelves or completely used as decoration on the Christmas tree. I consider paper the most affordable material for manufacturing, so we will use it.
Involve the children, let them develop their accuracy and fine motor skills, so that the process takes place in an unforgettable mood of waiting for a miracle. Or while you are creating a decor element, let the child cut openwork snowflakes with other family members according to the patterns from the previous article.
Do-it-yourself voluminous paper snowflakes
Volumetric versions of snowflakes are very popular now, or they are also called 3D. Of course, more paper is needed, but the effect is amazing.
With the help of such a decor element, you can create an unusual photo zone in the apartment where guests will be photographed.
Such a snowflake can be attributed to kindergarten or school. Also hang and decorate a street Christmas tree.
So, the simplest and most popular options for snowflakes.
In the first version, we used the same technology as in this article when we made the autumn leaf.
For a snowflake, take 6 square sheets, you can use multi-colored stickers.
The point is that the paper sheet is folded diagonally and 3 slots are made from the side of the fold.
And the two shortest tips are connected, then the workpiece is turned on the wrong side. The ends of the two middle strips are glued together.
Then the workpiece unfolds again and so the process continues until all the ends stick together.
You will get 6 blanks.
And we glue these blanks with the bases to each other.
The next snowflake is even easier to make. It turns out very fluffy and like many children.
For it, we use a sheet of double-sided colored paper and cut it to make a square.
We turn it diagonally and then three more times, getting triangles.
You should get three sides, as in the photo and a common fold line.
Now long end turn inward and cut off the resulting triangle.
It remains only to make even long cuts.
Now carefully unfold the blank so that the paper fringe does not tear.
To get the volume, we make two more of the same smaller blanks and connect them in the center.
Newspaper snowflake
You can make it from newspapers, or you can make it from plain paper.
To glue one snowflake, we need from five to 7 blanks.
We prepare strips: long - 9 cm, medium - 8 cm, short - 7 cm.
Now we glue the ends of each strip.
We form the workpiece.
And we combine them into one product.
Newspaper is thinner than paper, so it's best to double each strip to add thickness.
Using toilet paper rolls
Toilet paper rolls are a chic thing for creativity.
For one snowflake, we take one sleeve, cut it into pieces of the same size.
And glue with hot glue in any order we like. To get a double leaflet, you need to fold the ring in half.
If you paint a snowflake, then the sleeve should not dissolve in water, take it from ordinary toilet paper.
Apply PVA glue to the edges of the finished product and sprinkle glitter on it.
Detailed diagrams of how to make voluminous paper snowflakes
Found more detailed explanation how to make three wonderful snowflakes. By the way, if you apply self-sufficient tones like red, black or purple, you will get quite stylish and unusual.
blue snowflake
We need to cut strips of two colors: 5 long, 10 medium and 10 short.
We connect it like this: We glue the ends of a long strip, then on the sides we glue medium strips to its ends.
Then comes the turn of short strips, you get a blank.
We connect the workpieces in the middle with a stapler or hot glue.
How do you like the result?
Curly snowflake
You need five square sheets of paper of the same size.
We fold each square halfway and make cuts of the same size to the center.
We unfold and start making a ray. Glue each end of the strip to its beginning at the center, you get something like a droplet.
We will collect all the blanks into one whole and rejoice at the result.
black snowflake
Very effective, but rather complicated application. There are two options for gluing it.
We take the stripes of the same width and are very even. We fold three strips perpendicular to each other and fix the center with paper clips. 
We connect the two extreme strips, having received a petal, we will do the same with the rest.
You can do so. But there is another option for gluing. 
Then we glue the side strips of one side together under the middle strip.
But then, in order to get more rays, you will need to make a second layer on top, but place it diagonally.
To decorate snowflakes, you can use braid, ribbons, beads, LEDs and other elegant elements.
Volumetric snowflakes made of paper strips will decorate any room for the New Year holidays. The craft is quick and easy, so I recommend involving children in the creative process - they will have fun 🙂
The master class is presented in step by step photos and video format.
For work you will need:
- 5 strips of paper 21 x 1 cm;
- 10 strips of paper 17 x 1 cm;
- 10 strips of paper 14.5 x 1 cm;
- glue stick;
- sequins to decorate the middle.
How to make voluminous snowflakes from paper strips:
- Cut strips to desired length. This craft looks good from plain paper, but I wanted a riot of colors 🙂
- Fold the long strip in half without smoothing the fold!!! (We want a voluminous snowflake 🙂) And we glue the ends together. We take a strip middle length, one end at a slight angle is glued on top of the tips of the first strip, and the second - on the bottom. Glue the second strip on the other side of the large one. Similarly, glue two small stripes, alternating sides.
- We prepare 5 such rays.
- We glue them together. To make the rays evenly spaced, it is convenient to use a template. You can print a picture from the Internet or, using the knowledge of mathematics, draw 5 rays with equal angles from each other.
- The layer of paper is quite large, so when gluing the rays, I smeared more abundantly.
- The middle turned out to be not very neat, so the sequins came in handy.

Ruler
Pencil
Decoration
Scissors
So let's start by cutting strips whose width(1cm, length of the largest (21cm, medium (17cm, small (14cm).
We take the longest strip and glue the ends. It is not necessary to iron the middle, it should turn out, as it were, the shape of a drop. Now we take two average stripes and in the same style glue to a large stripe. Then we take the small ones and do the same. And the result is a beam.
Such rays need to be made 5 pieces.
We start collecting snowflake. We spread the middle and stick on each other to get snowflake.
And in the middle on both sides we paste a decoration for beauty. Everything snowflake ready to decorate.

Simple and beautiful volumetric snowflakes
New Year's preparations are no less magical time than the New Year itself. What a joy it is to go shopping before the holidays, shimmering street decorations against the backdrop of falling snow, compiling a list of gifts and creating New Year's decor. If adults are so reverent about preparation, then children are simply delighted with any opportunity to participate in such events. Let's make our kids happy and make voluminous openwork snowflakes with them, which can be used in decorating a Christmas tree, creating garlands, decorating windows or gift boxes.
For work, prepare the following materials:
- sheets of white paper (it is better to use not too thick paper);
- a simple pencil or marker;
- glue or double-sided tape;
- scissors;
- stationery stapler.
How to make voluminous openwork snowflakes from plain paper
Take paper and necessary tools. When the right materials are at hand, the work goes smoothly. 
Divide an A4 sheet into two halves. 
Bend the strip from one edge to a small width (0.8-1.2 cm). 
Bend the edge again, now in the other direction. Bend the edge again and again, changing the position from the wrong side to front side. A very important condition - the more assemblies, the better the snowflake will turn out. But you should not make too narrow stripes either - it will be inconvenient to cut out the pattern. If everything is done correctly, you will get paper assembled into an accordion. 
Do this with all the prepared papers. Divide part of the "accordions" in half with scissors. 
Bend each "accordion" in half in one direction and the other. 
Punch through the middle of each "accordion" with a stapler. 
Draw a pattern on each blank. 
Fold the "accordion" in half and cut out the pattern, according to the intended pattern. 
The edges of snowflakes can be connected with glue, but much faster and stronger - with adhesive tape. Cut out strips of double-sided tape and stick on both sides. 
Remove the protective layer and connect the "accordion" on one side, pressing the edges. 
Connect the other side. Spread over the entire surface and you will get voluminous snowflakes. 
Snowflakes will turn out openwork, of different sizes. 
The beauty! Working with hands and scissors with ordinary paper, extraordinary white snowflakes are obtained! 
Snowflakes will be a wonderful addition to New Year's decor. Also use the works children's creativity in the decoration of gifts, cards and invitations. Volumetric snowflakes can be taken to decorate garlands, mobiles or hanging decorative ornaments. And if you apply a little glue on top and sprinkle with sparkles or shimmering dust - they will sparkle and sparkle with all the colors!

6. Expand the future snowflake. 
7. We smear the corner of the middle strip with glue. 
8. Glue the snowflakes to the middle.

A beautiful voluminous snowflake is ready, we thread a thread through it and decorate our house. I hung it on the wall, where the snowflake blended harmoniously into the overall interior. What do you want. By the way, snowflakes can be created not only from paper, but also to make them.
Do-it-yourself volumetric snowflake from stripes
Materials and tools will require the most common:
- double-sided colored paper,
- ruler,
- scissors,
- glue.
And if you want more celebration, then add sparkles, sequins and something like that for decoration.
In this example, I took A4 sheets for printing: one cyan, one white and one purple. Since in total we need 20 strips, we draw strips along the long side of each sheet a centimeter wide. 8 blue, 8 white and 4 purple. 
Such a voluminous paper snowflake consists of two identical parts. For one part, we take 4 blue stripes, 4 white and 2 purple, weave them together as in the photo (plain weave). To prevent this design from crumbling, fix it in several places with clerical glue. 
We glue the strips extreme to the corners (blue) in pairs to make a right angle at the tip. If the glue does not set immediately, then temporarily, before the glue dries, use paper clips. 
Then glue the white stripes on the back. This is one part of the future snowflake. 
Weave and glue the second, exactly the same part. 
We connect the two parts. The rays of the first should be between the rays of the second. The remaining free strips (purple) are pulled into the rays and glued by the tip. The body of the snowflake is ready, now it is solid and can be hung. We cut off the excess sticking out on the rays so that the tips are pointed, and if there is a desire to supplement the figure with something, then we supplement it. I tried using pearl sequins. 
As a result, we get a rather large voluminous paper snowflake, about 25 cm in diameter. If you need less, then cut the A4 sheet across, along the narrow side, and take the strip width 0.5 cm. 
At any size, you get an original air decoration for your home, made by yourself. If the process still seems complicated for children, then they can participate in cutting strips of paper, and then watch the work of adults and decorate at the end by gluing shiny elements. 
Volumetric snowflake from three colors of paper
To create snowflakes you will need:
- paper of three colors (you can also one),
- scissors,
- glue stick or PVA.
How to make a voluminous paper snowflake with your own hands:
In the work we will use the extra stripes that we cut off in the manufacture of previous snowflakes - white, blue and purple flowers. First, cut out squares of the same size. Then we will begin to fold each square in half, forming a triangle. 
Then fold a second time. 
Next, you can use a pencil, or you can simply make even cuts along the longest edge of the triangles with scissors. You need to start cutting not from the side of the last fold, but from the side of the connection of the sides of the triangle, as shown in the photo. 
We unfold each resulting cut square and begin to glue all the corners. Middle first. 
Then through one strip, two strips. 
Then we glue the remaining strips in the other direction. Thus forming the petal of the future snowflake. 
So we do with all the other snowflake blanks. 
We begin to glue them together in three jokes. Choosing a certain combination of colors, we glue the bottom edge of the snowflake and between them with adjacent strips. 
Next, we glue the two blanks together in the middle and again with each other in contact strips.
The snowflake is ready, you can hang it on the wall or even on the Christmas tree. Moreover, you remember the tradition for each meeting of the New Year you need to hang on the Christmas tree new toy. So let it be the paper snowflake you created. 
Paper snowflakes: templates for cutting, voluminous are shown step by step in this section of the material. These products with such a strange name are appearance more voluminous, and the cutting process is more complex. It is extremely important to fold the workpiece correctly at the very beginning, otherwise, when the cutting is completed, the product may simply scatter into several parts.
To make a snowflake using this technique, thick paper is required. It can be white or any other color, it all depends on the specific creative idea of ​​the person. You will also need to have sharp scissors and a clerical knife on hand (used for cutting small parts, you must definitely put something under the product so as not to cut through the table).
Before you start making such a snowflake, you must definitely fold the workpiece correctly. To do this, fold a regular sheet of paper in half and draw a line on it along the bottom edge. Next, draw a perpendicular to it. Our sheet will have two 90 degree angles. After that, you need to draw a line from the point where the lines intersect to make an angle of 60 degrees. Then you will need to draw two more lines reaching the edges of the sheet. If you are confused while reading all this, just look at the photo and it will become clear exactly how and what to do.
Now a square sheet is taken, it must be folded diagonally, this will turn out to be a triangle. Attach a stencil to it, checking the coincidence of all corners. The base of the triangle should coincide with the line that runs along the edge of the sheet (which at the very beginning of the work, see the previous paragraph, was drawn very first). The sharp corners of this triangle fold over to opposite lines that go to 60 degree angles.
It turns out a rather beautiful figure in shape, resembling a flower bud. Everything, the workpiece is ready. Yes, it will be difficult to make it and, perhaps, it will not work the first time, but the voluminous snowflake turns out to be delightful and very original.
Further in the matter of how to make paper snowflakes: templates for cutting, voluminous, you need to check the photo. If everything is done correctly, apply a drawing to the template, then, when the cutting work is completed, you should erase all the lines that could remain on the surface of the festive snowflake.
Advice! To make it easier to cut a snowflake, you can fold the workpiece in half. But then you need to understand that the template pattern is applied in such a situation only to one half of the workpiece.
When the snowflake is cut out, you will need to bend small details, after this step the product will have a cute and pretty volume. Additionally, such a snowflake can be painted, decorated with sparkles, beads.

Next pretty interesting option how to make snowflakes from paper using templates for cutting, its voluminous options. To make this snowflake you need to have three ordinary paper snowflakes You will also need glue, thread and a needle. Other options, how are they made.
First, you should choose any snowflake template that you like and print it out. Next, on three sheets of paper, simply circle this stencil and cut it out. It is most convenient to cut such a template not with scissors, but with a clerical knife, only a cutting board must be placed under the product to avoid damaging the table.
Next, you will need to bend the product along the dotted line, it is also marked on the template. It remains now to glue or sew the snowflakes together along the fold line. Of course, such an elegant voluminous snowflake must hang somewhere, and this cannot be done without organizing an additional loop. To make it, it will be enough to skip a thread or thin satin ribbon through the upper beams and tie a knot.
I would like to consider another option for creating a three-dimensional snowflake from paper Snowflakes from paper without using a template for cutting. This snowflake will be made from two blanks, each will have four corners at once. To make a snowflake, you need to have two sheets of paper on hand, cut out squares of the same size from them.
Then fold each square to make a triangle. This triangle will need to be folded again. The stage of work is simple, it is used for almost all snowflakes. Next, you need to arm yourself with a simple pencil and draw lines along which the snowflake will be cut. You must first remove the excess part of the triangle: you get a figure that looks like a mermaid's tail in shape (see photo).
From each edge, draw two lines, making a small indent between them. Leave the top corner as it is. The lines should not reach the top corner and end somewhere a centimeter before it. It remains to make cuts and expand the details. You will get two beautiful snowflakes with four corners, resembling a color in appearance.
Now we need to make a snowflake out of flowers: we are talking about New Year's decor. It is better to bend the middle strips on each to the center and fasten them together. Put one workpiece on top of another, the rays should not match. The result is a snowflake with 8 corners that looks great from any angle. The details remain to be glued, and the snowflake can be decorated at will with beads, sparkles, or whatever your creative soul desires.
With 3D effect
It seems to many, judging by the photo, that such a voluminous do-it-yourself paper snowflake for the New Year is easier than the previous version that was considered. Actually, here to whom as. It seems that the second option for making a snowflake is actually simpler and easier, but, on the other hand, if you make it together with the kids, you still need to spend both time and effort.
The advantage of this option for making a snowflake is that it will be possible to use a variety of ornaments for it. This means that people who constantly complain that master classes do not allow them to show their imagination to the fullest, will finally be able to give vent to their imagination.
What you need for work:
One sheet of paper of any color;
Pencil and scissors;
Stipler with staples for fastening parts of a snowflake.
Paper is needed in the form of squares with a side of 10 cm. To make a large enough snowflake according to such a master class, you will need ten such paper squares. First of all, you need to cut a snowflake in any way from one square of paper. To do this, bend the square in half, you get a diagonal. Now bend everything again and draw the pattern by which the snowflake will be cut.
Important! Patterns can be very different, but it is important to repeat it a few more times. Therefore, you can simply print a ready-made template from a feature article on our website (or transfer it to paper through the screen), which you can use to make a three-dimensional snowflake in the end.
It will be necessary to cut the triangle along the marked lines, in other words, in the usual way Using sharp nail scissors, cut out the snowflake and lay it out. Make the same blanks from those nine leaves of the square that were prepared for work, but have not yet been used. Recall once again that the pattern for all snowflakes should be the same.
Now it's time to make a big figure out of ordinary flat snowflakes. First you need to take five flat snowflakes and use a stapler to fasten them together.
Then again de take five blanks and exactly according to the same principle as the first five,
fasten together. There remains the most difficult part of the process, which requires the most accuracy. Two halves of one large snowflake must also be fastened together. A large voluminous snowflake is ready and in order to hang it, you just need to tie a ribbon or thread to it in any part.
