Crafts and birthday cards: how to make an original gift with your own hands. Step-by-step instruction + 93 photos

The most important and expensive holiday in the life of every person is, of course, a birthday.

And it is on this solemn day that I want to make the birthday man a special unforgettable gift, which he will treasure for a long time.

Naturally, the most expensive and best gift is a DIY handmade craft.

Such a present will be remembered and will please much more than a ready-made gift bought in a trading shop.

"Paper" gift

The simplest original gift can be prepared from plain paper, examples are shown in the photo of crafts for a birthday.

Paper does not require special financial costs and preparing a presentation does not take much time.

Crafts from paper for a birthday can be handed over to absolutely anyone close to you.

After all, a little thing prepared with all its heart with its own hands will undoubtedly be a unique and non-standard surprise.

For example, you can make a small mysterious chest of drawers from numerous boxes, inside which are hidden interesting trinkets or a message with wishes for the birthday man.

Or a mug, the model of which is made of bright colored paper, will undoubtedly attract attention.

It is reasonable to fill it with delicious sweets or vitamins.

If you want to present not only a beautiful, but also a useful surprise, you can prepare an original personal calendar that is pasted with joint photos or pictures on topics of interest to the birthday person.

A bouquet of flowers from paper is an excellent gift for beloved women, which even the smallest member of the family can handle (of course, not without the help of an adult).

Another original present is a piece of festive paper cake, on which are placed sincere wishes.

For this, simple materials are useful:

  • paper glue (you can glue - pencil);
  • ruler;
  • a simple pencil;
  • colored paper or thick cardboard (a cardboard gift will be much stronger and more reliable);
  • beads, ribbons, beads and rhinestones for decoration.

The work of making such a tidbit consists of several steps:

  • We prepare the desired template for the future piece. It is more convenient to find it on the Internet and transfer it to a sheet of cardboard, then carefully cut it.
  • According to the finished scheme, we carefully bend the necessary places, using a ruler for greater convenience.
  • On the back of the piece you need to make a small incision so that the cake closes.
  • Glue in the right places with glue.
  • Then the most interesting painstaking process is the decoration of the gift. Feel free to include the fantasy: rhinestones, ribbons, bows. But it is worth considering that everything should be in moderation!
  • A prepared wish, put inside the so-called gift box.

Sweet gift

A gift from sweets will no doubt bring delight even to an adult, not to mention children. It is possible to use candies in bright wrappers or a bar of chocolate.

As an example: a candy bouquet that does not take much time and cost. Useful:

  • wrapping paper;
  • scissors;
  • glue for paper or PVA (you can use a special glue gun);
  • round sweets in beautiful packaging;
  • "Crunchy" paper in gold or silver;
  • a basket or a regular metal can of coffee;
  • decoration elements: beads, rhinestones, small bows;
  • toothpicks or skewers;
  • Scotch.

We do the following work:

  • We cut a few squares of gold or silver foil. Then you need to wrap sweets in them, securing the ends with wire or a strong thread - this is the core of the future flower.
  • The petals will be from small chopped squares of colored corrugated paper, which should be enough for the entire shape of the candy. For one piece, you need to cut two petals rounded on top.
  • In the center of each petal, you need to place one candy, forming a bud. Again we fix the structure with wire or thread.
  • We take green paper and form small leaves, fix them at the base of the rose, that is, sweets. In each you need to introduce a wire, which is also wrapped in green paper.
  • In the already decorated vase (prepared decorated jar), carefully stick in the right amount of finished roses. So that the flowers fit snugly against each other, in the interval between them it is worth placing ribbons or sheets of paper.

Papule as a gift

To make dad a birthday present, you have to use maximum imagination.

For example: a card with a festive shirt and tie.

To do this, you need:

  • A sheet of cardboard is folded in half, in the form of a postcard.
  • A sheet of colored paper of a similar format should also be folded in half, making cuts on the sides and bending corners - this is the collar of our shirt.
  • We take paper of a different color and form a tie, then glue it under the collar.
  • The shirt with PVA glue is attached to the main side of the cardboard card.

Inside the finished gift, wishes are written for the holiday, and you can even stick inside your daddy's postcard, or your photo as a keepsake.

You always look forward to your favorite holiday with impatience and anticipation of a miracle.
