Greetings, my wonderful ones! And in such an upbeat spirit, I invite you to continue decorating our home with your own hands. Let me remind you that earlier you and I made from different materials, including from, crafted and, sewed and created our own special one. But the collection of ideas for the New Year is simply inexhaustible! That's why our next step is window decoration. And we will do this with the help of stencils and protrusions.

To do this, you will need paper, a stationery knife and a backing so as not to spoil the surface of the table.

You may be wondering what to glue this beauty to. So, at home we fixed it with toothpaste. I think this is the most convenient option because it washes off easily. However, our friends glued snowflakes to the window using PVA glue. Of course, it holds up well, but it is difficult to wash off. I think that you simply need to know this. Also glued to paste. It cleans well from glass, but there is a lot of hassle with it - you need to cook it first. In general, choose for yourself.

So, what are the vytynanki that I mentioned just above. Briefly and without going into history, this is a picture cut out of paper. They can be quite simple, or they can be very delicate. Of course, this depends on the skill of the performer. You and I will not consider very complex options, because for the most part, this will be done by mothers with children. This means it should be simple, beautiful and fast.

So, the whole point of this decoration is shown in the picture: choose a stencil, cut along the lines and stick the picture on the window.

Important! The knife or stack must be very sharp! Therefore, stick to the rule: the mother cuts out the picture, and the child sticks it on the window.

Even before I give you just a huge number of pictures, I want to clarify one point. Namely, how to get the stencil itself.

• Method 1: download the picture and print it on a printer. Downloading occurs when you right-click and select the “Save picture as” function.
• Method 2: take a screenshot of the screen using the PrtSc key and save the image to your desktop. Then open a graphics editor (for example, Paint) and edit the picture there. All that remains is to print it out.
• Method 3 is not always correct, but it turns out that they also use it. Place a blank sheet of paper on the screen and trace the picture. It is important to do this without pressing on the screen so as not to damage the surface.
• Method 4: attach the diagram to the glass and draw the lines with gouache.

Now let's watch a detailed video so that you succeed the first time.

So, you are definitely ready, it’s time to move on to ideas.

Take a closer look at what beautiful images there are of winter, houses, landscapes. The lights look very beautiful at the very base of the horizontal frame.

So, we considered the biggest options. Of course, they are all winter themed.

Templates for windows in the form of snowflakes that you can download

We cannot imagine winter without snowflakes. And in childhood we immediately and forever became convinced that they were all different. There is no beauty like another. Therefore, in this section there are many interesting schemes and templates for you.

You can cut out one thing for each and you will get all different window decorations.

There are very simple ideas and the pictures can be easily cut with scissors. They are suitable for beginners.

And there are even more complicated options. When, you don’t mind the time to get such a beauty.

As you can see, there are many templates. I suggest cutting out snowflakes from colored self-adhesive paper. It’s bright and sticks well to glass.

If you haven’t found such paper, then just color the snowflake in the colors of winter and holiday: blue, light blue, silver and gold.

DIY paper window vytynankas, New Year's symbols

Of course, any holiday has its own symbolism. New Year is no exception. Let's look at what we associate it with.

For some reason I want to start with deer. These graceful and hardy animals bring Grandfather Frost to us with gifts from Veliky Ustyug itself. Can you imagine what kind of heroes they are, who fly around the whole world in a couple of hours?

Here I share with you the whole composition.

Here, this handsome man is bringing us Santa Claus. They are in a hurry, because the children of Europe are already waiting for them.

This Bambi is simply impossible to ignore.

Next, let's look at snowmen. They also come in different styles, colors and sizes.

Not necessarily, he can be alone. It will be useful for small children to know that he has a family: mom and dad.

Snowmen are often found in Soviet winter fairy tales. Remember about the postman?

Modern kids might be more into Olaf from Frozen.

Of course, we won’t ignore the Christmas tree!

The Christmas tree made from circles is very unusual!

And here is a beauty from the stars.

Decorating the corners of the window in the form of frosty patterns.

Now ideas for everyone who enjoys the holiday. Let's talk about animals.

Candles, angels. This is more suitable for Christmas.

Here are some carnival masks for you!

I’ll leave the best part for last – Santa Claus and Snow Maiden! See what they can be.

Now let’s cut out a granddaughter for grandpa.

For Elsa lovers I give this template.

Already chosen an idea? Now let's look at how you can arrange the protrusions on the window.

How to decorate windows for the New Year: beautiful templates and patterns

Simply cutting out a picture using a stencil is not quite enough. You also need to create a composition on the window so that it looks connected and beautiful. Therefore, I give ideas for the placement of stencils. I will immediately attach templates and diagrams to some of them.

Here's an idea for a snowy tale about the inquisitive Umka.

The patterns here are interesting. For example, such a bear has been knocking on the door since winter.

For this composition, you will find diagrams in the article. There is such a Christmas tree and a grandfather. It was just an interesting use of vertical.

Deer add grace to any composition.

Remember the Wolf from “Well, wait a minute!” Here they are with the bunny.

Winter landscapes are always charming.

Here is a diagram for this idea.

Window decoration based on the “Golden Key”.

You can cut out a large picture at once that will cover both window sashes.

Ideas from the popular cartoon "Masha and the Bear".

And here are the cutting diagrams.

The bright colored vytynankas are also very cute. They can be colored by hand or printed on a color printer.

Vytynanki in the form of piglets (Pig) - symbol of the New Year 2019

Now let's move on to the symbol of this year - the Pig. Her image definitely needs to be placed on at least one window.

There are ideas with numbers and letters. There are just beautiful piglets.

Let's look at ideas with numbers first.

At the same time, a couple of diagrams with inscriptions.

And now just silhouettes of cute Piggies.

Piglet also fits the theme very well.

Perhaps you should try to decorate your apartment in a completely new way by painting real frosty patterns on the windows. They will require protrusions.

The most popular options for vytynankas are sleighs, Santa Claus, Snow Maiden and bunnies. These are the traditional heroes of the holiday. New Year's deer stencils for cutting out are no less popular.

• How to make a deer stencil

What are vytynanki and what are they eaten with?

Where did the world first learn about vytynanki? This needlework technique came into the homes of modern craftsmen from seventh century China. Paper fakes were also used here for decorative purposes. In Russia, this art first appeared in the twentieth century. In this century, vytynanki spread to Europe.

Gradually, the technique of creating stencils of various paper figures began to become popular not only on the eve of the New Year, but also at Christmas and Easter. In addition, in some localities in Russia, vytynankas are used to decorate the bride’s house several days before the wedding.

What materials are needed to make a vytynanka

1. White paper (A4 size).
2. Thick cardboard.
3. Scissors (manicure).
4. Knife (stationery).
5. Soap solution.

White paper is usually needed to make window shapes. You will need cardboard for those cases when you want to make several beautiful hanging figures.

In “Everything for Creativity” stores you can find special kits for making vytynankas. Then they proceed as follows - either transfer the finished patterns onto paper, or give free rein to their imagination and draw figures as they see fit.

It is not necessary to cut out single figures. Armed with stencils, it’s easy to recreate a real full-fledged picture on the window. For example, this could be the house of Father Frost, near which there is a sleigh drawn by reindeer, his granddaughter Snegurochka is walking nearby, and snowflakes are in the air.

- this is the most common pattern for vytynankas. First you need to draw a snowflake by hand or print a ready-made template. Then glue it to the glass using a soap solution. To make a snowflake look like a real one, you will need toothpaste. It is diluted with water so that the consistency of liquid sour cream is obtained, then a toothbrush is dipped into it and hands are run over the pile so that splashes fly away from it. These splashes should fall on the glass, namely around the snowflake. The result should be a snowfall effect.

How to make a deer stencil

1. White paper (A4 size).
2. Scissors (manicure).
3. Knife (stationery).
4. Pencil.
5. Grater.

First of all, you need to decide what kind of New Year’s deer will be - drawn with your own hands, or printed from the Internet. On the Internet you can find a huge number of ready-made templates, which you just have to print and cut out all the excess. To do this you will need a sharp utility knife. If you use regular scissors to cut out small parts, the stencil can easily be damaged - wrinkled, cut off excess or an uneven cut.

For those who have a knack for fine art, you can try drawing a deer by hand. For this you will also need plain white paper. Cardboard should be used only when the stencil is not intended for a window, but, for example, for a Christmas tree as a hand made toy.

The size of the stencil depends solely on how the master wants to see it. The finished vytynanka is glued to the window with soapy water and sprinkled with “snow” - toothpaste. As an alternative, you can use special decorative snow, which is sold in the form of cans at any “Everything for creativity” store. Unlike toothpaste, it does not need any special preparation for application. Just shake the can and spray.

Why making vytynankas is useful for children

Modern people have very little time left to spend with their children. Making for windows on the eve of the New Year is a real chance to spend time with your family doing a useful activity. The kids will be pleased to do something for everyone, becoming the most significant person for the family for a few hours.

In addition, creating a template (stencil) is also useful because this technique develops fine motor skills of the hands. This skill is very useful for preschool children. In the future, the baby will not have any problems with the need to cut something exactly out of paper. Plus, making a template for figures on windows is useful because this technique activates a person’s creative thinking. In the future, this may play into the hands of the child when choosing his profession. It is possible that just because of such activities, the grown-up child will want to connect his life with some kind of creative activity.

Good afternoon, we again continue to make crafts in the form of Santa Claus and in this article I have collected those that are made of paper. Here you will find great ideas for crafts for kindergarten classes, or for creativity lessons at school. You can make Santa Claus out of paper in a variety of ways. Now you will see all the variety of children's crafts with this New Year's character - both flat applications and voluminous convex applications. As well as crafts based on toilet paper rolls and cardboard cones.

Santa Claus made of paper.

Simple crafts

for babies

A simple application in kindergarten can be made in the form of a New Year's greeting card.

Take a sheet of red cardboard. We bend it in half, forming a postcard. This will be the basis of our children's craft.

Now on the front front side we create an applique of Santa Claus's face. Cut it out pink paper oval, truncated along the side edges - this will be the face. Cut it out charcoal mustache shape, also made of white paper. And small ones clouds of white eyebrows, also with a wavy edge. Nose cut out pink paper of a darker shade than the face.

And the child’s task is to assemble this puzzle according to the teacher’s model, with the correct order: first the face, then the fur of the hat, mustache, and lastly the eyes and nose. A quick and simple application for the younger group of kindergarten.

Here’s another simple job for the younger group of kindergarten. Here the basis of Santa Claus is a TRIANGLE of red cardboard. And all the details fit within this triangle - the beard, the mustache, and the edging of the hat.

And based on the triangle, you can make this original Santa Claus craft, which uses a paper confectionery napkin with an openwork patterned edge. A very beautiful Santa Claus is made from paper. You can buy napkins in the hardware department of the store.

The body shape of Santa Claus made of paper can be any. For example, from two circles - like a slave. Beautiful, simple and similar. You can have a mustache, you can without a mustache. You can have a pompom on your hat, or you can have a pompom on your nose.

You can find templates for such crafts in our new article

You yourself are free to give any shape to the body of Santa Claus. He will still be recognizable. Because he is red and he has a beard.

And even if you want to add any accessories to the image of Santa Claus, this will still not prevent him from being a recognizable symbol of the New Year. Wonder as much as you want. Let your own version of Santa Claus appear, he also likes jokes.

VOLUMETRIC applique

with Santa Claus made of paper.

And here we see techniques that help to create a voluminous layered effect of paper appliqué in the form of Santa Claus.

The first way is to make the beard two-layered, two-tiered. We cut the bottom layer longer, the top layer of the beard shorter. When gluing, we apply glue only to the upper part of the beard so that the layer sticks out freely towards the top. We also make the hat with a fold forward. And a pompom for a hat can be made voluminous from thread or cotton wool, or a wad of crepe paper.

You can fold origami in the form of Santa Claus. The paper fold also creates a volume effect.

The second way is to add volume to Santa Claus's beard using paper curls. We cut white paper into strips of slightly different lengths. We glue the strips onto the edges of the chin of Santa Claus's face, let the glue dry and then screw each strip onto a pencil.

The third way is to create beard volume using a paper CUPcake MIN. We do not coat the corrugated edge of the cupcake tin with glue (only the middle) and it sticks up from the applique, creating volume.

You can also make a fan from a narrow strip of paper and unfold it into a circle. And based on this round fan, make a three-dimensional application of Santa Claus.

The fourth way is to put a layered applique, with layers of stumps. We cut out the applique elements from thick paper and so that the parts RISE and FLOAT ABOVE the cardboard sheet, we use PADS. Thick layers between the applique details and the background. That is, we don’t glue the applique onto the background cardboard - we glue only the layers of stumps, and then we spread the glue only on these stumps and put the applique parts on them. And she hangs in the air.

Spacer layers can be made... firstly, made of thick packaging cardboard(TV box, cardboard egg cassette).

Or the layers can become SPRINGS made of paper(remember in childhood we all wove such an accordion-spring out of two strips of paper). So, short accordion-springs can become stumps on which our applique will rise.

The fifth way to add volume to your paper Santa Claus is to make crafts using the postcard technique with internal volume. Here in the photo below we see a beautiful craft Santa Claus is breaking dancing.

Here we bend the white cardboard in half. And we make cuts across the fold line (perpendicular to the fold line of the card, 2 cm from its edge). The depth of the incision can be any (in the photo below it is 2 cm). The notched part of the postcard is pressed inward with a finger - protruding this fold with a square bench into the postcard. And now to this bench we will glue the “Frosty Fest” PLATE on which Santa Claus stands, upside down.

As a result, it turns out that the body of Santa Claus is hanging in the air. To further give the body stability, you can also stick a strip of paper (folded in the form of a rectangular frame) on the back (behind its belly) - this way it will also be fixed on top.

Here's another idea for a folding card with Santa Claus. I have already described how to do it in detail step by step in the article, so here I will only give a diagram of the templates.

And here is another folding craft in the form of Santa Claus. Also an interesting idea for activities in kindergarten.

CONE paper applique

in the form of SANTA CLAUS.

If you make a TRIANGULAR DOT in a flat circle in the form of a sector (like a piece of pie) ... and then bend this sector and glue it inside (so that the edges of the sector meet into one line of the gluing seam) - then we get a conical part. Convex like a mushroom cap...
Based on this principle of DARTING on a flat circle, we create a convex Santa Claus craft from plain paper. Like this...

But here is a large diagram for this craft - it is in A4 format - you can immediately print it and it will appear correctly in full size on the sheet coming out of your printer. The dart is painted over on the template with a gray background; we bend it along the edges and bring the fold lines closer together. Or you can make a cut along one side of the sector and glue the entire gray sector inside - overlapping edge to edge.

Complex applique

With Santa Claus

You can make a large-scale paper applique in terms of the number of elements - with Santa Claus, reindeer, sleigh, snowmen, city, and other New Year's paraphernalia.

Such complex applications with many elements are best done as a group craft in kindergarten. Each child completes only one element of the applique - and then at the end of the lesson, all the characters and paraphernalia are put together into a large common applique - on a huge sheet of drawing paper.

And in the older group, you can give children a craft task with several appliqué elements, but combined within one New Year's wreath. How this was done is shown in the photo below.

Volumetric Santa Claus made of paper

In the form of a box.

Here is a diagram of the box which, when assembled, forms a figure of Santa Claus. An excellent craft - it’s clear how to draw, what to bend and what to glue. It's easy and quick to make Santa Claus based on a thick sheet of paper.

Three drawings

FOR Santa Claus' SLEED.

Below I want to show another simple craft - a sleigh for Santa Claus. Their assembly principle is simple - there is a bottom (diagram below) and the sides of the sleigh, the back and the footrest are thrown in four directions from the bottom.

Here is another diagram - a little different - but there is nothing complicated here either. Drew, cut out, bent under a ruler(we press an ordinary school ruler firmly against the fold line, and lift the sheet of paper - the fold turns out even, like on factory crafts).

You can make the elements of the sleigh CARVED - that is, make slits in the side parts above the runners of the sleigh - openwork or straight, like on the Soviet sleighs from childhood.

Santa Claus made of paper

Based on PLATE.

Disposable paper plates can be the source of many crafts. And Santa Claus is no exception to this creative series of plate designs. The white round plate, by its very shape, suggests a craft in the form of Santa Claus.

You are free to choose the design of this craft and materials at your discretion. Use whatever comes to mind - cotton pads, paper napkins, paper shavings.

On the basis of a white plate, you can use any volumetric techniques that we use from paper. Everything that this article talked about above can be done on the basis of a plate.

Volumetric crafts

Father Frost

Made from paper and cardboard.

Now let's see what three-dimensional crafts can be made in the form of Santa Claus from paper and cardboard. You can make a ring-clip for a bag of candies in the shape of Santa Claus (as in the left photo below). We wrap the candies in a napkin and pull the ends of the knot through a hair elastic to which a cardboard applique of Santa Claus's head is glued.

You can make a Santa Claus craft with rope arms and legs from a round Christmas ball (or a foam ball), as in the right photo below.

You can make a Santa Claus craft out of paper in the form of balls assembled from strips of colored paper. In the article, I give a detailed master class on how to simply assemble such a ball. If you make two paper balls, a larger one and a smaller one, you can use them to make the head and torso of Santa Claus.

You can cut out Santa Claus from a paper accordion fan. Fold a strip of paper into a fan shape. We lay it out again evenly on the table, mark with a pencil the area of ​​​​the arms and hats, make a rounding of the body of Santa Claus - and cut off these outlines with scissors. We reassemble the accordion along the old fold lines. And use a hole punch to make a hole in the middle. We insert a cocktail straw into it. And we decorate the silhouette of the craft - adding to it a round face made of pink paper, a beard and a fur hat made of white cotton wool.

You can also make a three-dimensional craft based on a cardboard cone. We make a semicircle out of red cardboard (use a large plate). And we roll this semicircle into a cone-bag. We fasten the edges of the cone with a stapler or put it on double-sided tape (the glue will simply hold the cone weakly, there is a risk that the cardboard cone, under the pressure of compression, will tend to unclench).

You can design the Santa Claus craft itself based on the outline in different designs - a smooth beard made of paper, a voluminous beard made of paper twists, fluffy cotton wool, white threads cut with scissors, or anything else.

You can decorate this craft based on a cardboard cone with additional materials and elements - hands made of fluffy wire with mittens made of velvet paper or felt, a Christmas tree made of paper or cardboard.

White cotton can turn any red object into Santa Claus. A toilet paper roll or plastic plate can easily turn into the beloved Santa Claus of all children.

You can also make an applique of Santa Claus using the QUILLING technique - from rolled paper (as in the photo below).

Christmas decoration

Father Frost

Made from paper and cardboard.

I also want to show interesting options for decorating your home for the New Year in the style of Santa Claus.

You can cut out a large applique for a window from colored paper.

Using the same principle, you can paste the silhouette of Santa Claus's head into the refrigerator door and it will turn out that he is looking out from his freezer. You can find colored cardboard of this format in specialized stationery stores. Or paint large sheets of cardboard from a large box (from a refrigerator, for example) with gouache yourself.

And here is an option where a large application of Santa Claus is made from paper on the door. This is an original and beautiful idea to decorate the door of an office or children's room for the New Year.

Here are some interesting and simple ideas on how to make a Santa Claus craft from paper or cardboard with your own hands.

Happy New Year's creativity.

Olga Klishevskaya, especially for the site ""
If you like our site, you can support the enthusiasm of those who work for you.
Happy New Year to the author of this article, Olga Klishevskaya.

Greetings to all subscribers and guests of the blog site

We continue the New Year's theme of decorating the house for the upcoming holiday. At the moment I am at work. I work on a 15 day shift basis. That is, 15 at work, 15 at home. This means that I will only get home on December 1st. And my son and I will begin to design and decorate the apartment for the New Year.

Last year we bought a new Christmas tree. Most of the toys and garlands for her were also purchased at the store. But I did some of it together with my son. At that time he was 2.5 years old and therefore most of the work was done with his wife, and he only watched the whole process with interest. It’s interesting, after all, when from a set of different pieces of paper, all kinds of ribbons and multi-colored buttons.

And the whole interest of Arthur (son’s name) lay in the fact that he hung the finished toys on the Christmas tree himself (at least where he could reach). And if he couldn’t, then he showed the place where they needed to be placed. You can probably imagine what came of it, at his age.))) Of course, after he fell asleep, we re-arranged everything.

This was the extent of our joint creativity last year. We decorated the Christmas tree for several days, including making homemade toys, and in the end we got this beauty.

Since we now have a lot of Christmas decorations, I decided to start carving with my son this year. By the way, he copes with this task perfectly, at 3.5. I always liked patterns on windows, but somehow we never decorated them. This year we will fill this gap.

That is, you don’t have to spend hours on the Internet looking for something suitable. You just need to write to me what you liked and I will send it to you. Or you can download the picture you like to your computer and then print it. To do this, right-click on the picture and select "save image as..."

Afterwards, select a folder to save and click save. It's quite simple.

Well, now, let's start looking and choosing templates, according to which we will make art with an interesting name - vytynanki.

To make it easier for you to cut, I suggest you watch a video that gives tips to make this task easier.

Window stencils for cutting out in A4 format

Let me make a reservation right away that all the pictures are of different sizes. But when printed, they will automatically adjust to the format in which you are printing (A3 or A4). If you need a small image, then an editor like Microsoft Word can easily cope with this task.

You just need to insert the picture you like into the editor field and, by dragging the mouse pointer on the corner of the picture, adjust it to the size you need.

Do not forget to place some unnecessary board under the paper so as not to spoil the table at which you will do your work.

That's all! And now let's begin...

Father Frost

Our selection will open with the main symbol of each year. I offer you a choice of 10 different options with his participation.

Snow Maiden

An equally important hero is the Snow Maiden. Where would Santa Claus be without her?

Kids will most like the Snow Maiden in this version - in the form of Masha)

Snowman

I really liked the option below too. And I think we can cope with this snowman.

Look at the cool work. I wonder how much time and labor was spent on such magnificence?

We glue the cut out stencils to the window. For this you will need:

• tassel

The brush needs to be soaked in water. Then rub the soap thoroughly and apply it to the template, as if with glue. Place it in the desired place on the eye, straighten it and blot it with a towel. We do the same with the rest of the figures.

And then we admire the result.

New Year's decorations for windows - printable templates

Below are a variety of compositions. With their help, you can create a real miracle on the windows no worse than Frost does.

With this house you can create a picture like this on the window

There is a house with Christmas trees. All that remains is to add snowflakes that will imitate stove smoke. Cool idea, in my opinion.

Here is another example that I really liked and proves that fantasy has no boundaries.

And here is a video story that motivates, even very motivates...

Mouse stencils for windows for the New Year 2020

Since we are celebrating the Year of the Rat, let's not forget about it. Let's make her image on our windows.

All children's favorite cartoon characters will decorate the windows in the children's room.

Christmas balls

Christmas trees

For greater effect, you can make a whole city on the windowsill from the same cuttings, which will further emphasize the window decorations and make the mood even better. See how it's done...

Bells

Schemes for cutting snowflakes onto windows

And of course, snowflakes. Please note that in every composition on the windows there are always snowflakes. They are the ones who create the atmosphere of winter and holiday. After all, the New Year is associated with snow, and snowflakes are snow.

And now the options are a little more complicated. Although the fold lines are indicated here. So you can simply cut out a snowflake along the contour, bend it in the right places and cut it out.

Stencils for cutting out letters and numbers for window decoration

Finally, numbers in various versions and the cherished phrases “Happy New Year”

Choose, cut and decorate! Wish you luck! If you are interested, then in the future I can post photographs of our creativity (show what we did).

Well, now I say goodbye to you and wish you creative success. With coming! Bye.

Features of decorating windows using stencils

If previously the main material for decorating windows for the New Year was toothpaste, then in our time there is such a device as artificial snow in a can, which is much more convenient to work with. There are two methods of using stencils - gluing them to glass or using the negative technique. The negative technique involves attaching a stencil to glass and applying artificial snow around it.

Regardless of the choice of technique for using stencils, you should adhere to these recommendations:

• When applying artificial snow, keep the can at a sufficient distance from the window. This will make the pattern uniform and also prevent the formation of lumps.
• Think in advance about what stencils you will use. In this case, you will get a complete composition, and not a set of figures.
• If you use toothpaste for the ornament, you can wait until it dries and draw additional stripes on the branches. This will help make the drawing more alive.
• It is better to use either only stencils that stick to the window, or those that work on the negative principle. On one window they do not fit well with each other.
• To glue the stencils to the window, you should soak them in PVA glue and water, and then glue them to the glass. Remove any remaining liquid with a soft cloth.
• If toothpaste is used, it should be white and free of impurities.

Creating a New Year's drawing on a window using a stencil

To create them you will need thin scissors, a stationery knife, and a wooden board. You need to find a template, download it, print it. Then remove excess areas using a utility knife. All that remains is to fix the template on the glass and draw the ornament using toothpaste, soap or artificial snow.

A New Year's deer stencil will help us make this decoration with our own hands. By choosing a successful stencil, we can create such a handsome man that our household will remember for at least the entire next year.

If we are going to “let the deer into our home,” we must understand the meaning of the deer as a symbol. What will he bring us?
The New Year's deer is a symbol of rebirth, spirituality and fertility. It is associated with the sun, its rays and its rising, therefore it is a very favorable symbol.
In foreign cultures and religions, the proud artiodactyl has always acted as a symbol of goodness, strength and dignity. For our ancestors, it was a guide to the world of spirits.

The deer is a symbol of the New Year primarily because it is a hardy winter animal, excellent for winter transport. That is why we often cannot imagine Santa Claus or Father Frost without a reindeer sleigh. The deer has also firmly established itself as a print on winter sweaters, which we love to give to loved ones for the New Year. Look, more are already waiting for you.

Types of New Year's Deer crafts

There are many ways to get your own New Year's deer:

Tools

The basis for this type of paper art is stencils. These are paper templates where all the contours and lines are cut out. And therefore, the more of these same contours and cut out fragments, the more accurate and beautiful the drawing will be.

Accordingly, ordinary stationery scissors will not be suitable for more precise cutting. They can only cut out the outer contour or large fragments; for everything else, use nail scissors or a stationery knife.

Vytynanka - Deer in a frame of snow paper patterns

The whole point of this stencil is in the frame. This pattern is perfect as a pattern on a mirror or wall.

1) Draw a vertical rectangular frame one centimeter wide.

2) Make curls from the frame, similar to frost patterns on the windows.

3) At the ends of the curls, draw snowflakes - large and small, with some patterns and others. Draw the patterns in as much detail as possible. Snowflakes are a delicate matter.

4) Inside the frame we depict a standing deer. The tail is lowered, the stance is confident, the head is turned so that the outline of the nose is visible. Pay special attention to the animal's horns. Below him lies a doe in the grass. The blades of grass hide almost her entire body, except for her neck and muzzle. Ears are raised alertly.

5) Cut out all the described elements.

Vytynanka - Deer in a Christmas ball

The template for the Christmas tree toy is made of dense material.

1) We depict the outline of the ball - a thick ring with a fairly wide frame. At the top there is a ring for thread. It's also thick enough to hold the toy.

2) From the ball inward there are curls with detailed snowflakes.

3) Just to the left of center we depict a galloping deer. The forelimbs are bent in a jump, the hind limbs are thrown back slightly. We draw the deer's tail, its face and ears. Don't forget to draw the horns in detail.

4) Cut out the elements described above.

Vytynanka - Reindeer Sleigh

1) The movement goes from left to right. There are four reindeer in the harness. Here they are only components, so we do not depict them in very detail. The front hooves are slightly bent and pointed downwards, the rear hooves push off. Horns like scallops. Here are all the details on the muzzles - a dotted eye and a curved line under it.

Each subsequent deer is located higher. All animals are tied with harnesses.

2) We draw Santa Claus's sleigh. Two curved lines on the body. The runners of the sleigh go in a curl in front, from them to the body we draw connecting triangles.

3) We draw Santa Claus on a sleigh. He holds the harness. Draw the dotted eyes, beard and mustache. The hat with the pompom sticks up. There is a gift behind the grandfather, the slits will be on his ribbon.

4) Cut it out. We also suggest that you make a very beautiful symbolic one that will help you do this very quickly and beautifully.

Vytynanka - Patterned deer

The peculiarity of this template is its pattern. Therefore, it will work well on thin paper as a drawing on a window.

1) We depict the outline of a deer standing with its front hoof raised. The thin tail is lowered, the hooves are depicted in detail, the sole is divided into two parts. The muzzle is turned to the side, the ears stick out. There are no details inside, the whole point is in the pattern.

2) Patterned curls curl inside the deer's body. Some are thicker, some are narrower. There are dots between them. We don’t draw patterns too close, as they will be difficult to cut out.

3) The deer's antlers, similar to the internal pattern, go in curls.

4) Cut out the elements.

Horns - heart - probably the favorite pattern of all girls)

Also perfect as a pattern for windows.

1) We depict a fawn. He is facing us. The limbs are spread apart, a small tail is barely visible from behind. The muzzle is slightly turned, the ears stick out to the sides. The fawn itself has nothing cut out except its outline.

2) The whole trick is in the horns. On the head we draw the outline of a huge heart.

3) Inside the heart we depict trees with bare branches.

Happy New Year! Have a good day))

On the eve of the holiday, careful preparations for the New Year begin. You need to think through every little detail, from choosing an outfit to decorating your home. New Year's figures cut out of paper on the windows will help add a fairy-tale atmosphere. This decor option is one of the most popular, as it requires virtually no costs and looks simply great.

Cutting paper figures: a brief history of openwork beauty

The common name “vytynanka” came to us from Ukraine. In Russia, decorative art is called “clippings” and has been known since ancient Slavic times. Our ancestors passed on the technique of carved paper patterns to new generations for several centuries. The first clay, bast, fabric and leather artifacts depicting figures on windows were found back in the 18th century. They belong to the Trypillian culture (5 - 3 thousand BC). But there is a lot of disagreement here, since the majority of historians believe that art is younger.

The technique of cutting figures from paper originated long before this in China - almost simultaneously with the invention of paper and primitive tools for its processing. The ancient inhabitants of the Celestial Empire carved gods and mythical creatures and hung them on windows and doors to scare away evil spirits or to make their homes more comfortable.

This technique came to us only in the mid-19th century from Poland and Ukraine. Almost 100 years earlier, the vytynanka “migrated” along with traders from Persia to Europe. Our ancestors happily took up the “clippings”, decorating with them not only windows for holidays, but also the iconostasis, stove, walls, etc. Over time, cuttings even began to be used to inform the person looking through the window about:

• illness of someone in the household;
• imminent wedding;
• pregnancy of the hostess;
• funerals, etc.

Now vytynankas are widely used during the holidays. We can say that each of us at school came across this art, cutting out snowflakes to decorate the classroom before the New Year. Paper figurines are especially popular in families with children. Young mothers create a fabulous atmosphere for their children in the nursery or living room, developing in them a love of art and folk traditions, imagination and other personal qualities.

Today we will learn how to make original decorations on A4 paper, and also try to download ready-made templates for cutting and print them on a printer.

DIY Vytynanka

To create a real winter fairy tale on the glass surface you will need the following materials and tools:

First you need to print out the blanks for cutting. If you do not have a copier, then enlarge the image to the required size, attach a sheet of paper to the monitor and draw a simple pencil along the contours.

We cut out the outer parts with scissors, and the inner or small ones with a stationery knife, after first placing the template on a flat wooden surface. Try not to leave black lines from the outline on the paper. The figures will show through on the window, so you need to remove the excess stroke.

White pictures will look more aesthetically pleasing, but if you want to diversify the composition, then some details can be decorated with pencils or paint. Gluing the cutouts is very easy. Dip the brush into warm water and rub the soap bar. This solution is applied to the workpiece, which must be immediately applied to the surface of the glass before it gets wet. We press the paper with a sponge and disperse the formed air bubbles with a soft cloth. To remove the protrusions, you need to wet them with warm water, wait 3 - 5 minutes so that they are well soaked and scrape them off with a knife. If you do this carefully, some of the figures can be used next year.

Important! The soap solution must be made thick. Otherwise, the paper may peel off from the glass in a couple of days.

We hope that these instructions will help you make a real New Year’s masterpiece with your own hands, as well as create. And now, we offer a gallery of ready-made templates.

The most popular options for vytynankas are sleighs, Santa Claus, Snow Maiden and bunnies. These are the traditional heroes of the holiday. New Year's deer stencils for cutting out are no less popular.

What are vytynanki and what are they eaten with?

Where did the world first learn about vytynanki? This needlework technique came into the homes of modern craftsmen from seventh century China. Paper fakes were also used here for decorative purposes. In Russia, this art first appeared in the twentieth century. In this century, vytynanki spread to Europe.

Gradually, the technique of creating stencils of various paper figures began to become popular not only on the eve of the New Year, but also at Christmas and Easter. In addition, in some localities in Russia, vytynankas are used to decorate the bride’s house several days before the wedding.

What materials are needed to make a vytynanka?

To make a stencil, you will need the following materials:

1. White paper (A4 size).
2. Thick cardboard.
3. Scissors (manicure).
4. Knife (stationery).
5. Soap solution.

White paper is usually needed to make window shapes. You will need cardboard for those cases when you want to make several beautiful hanging figures.

In “Everything for Creativity” stores you can find special kits for making vytynankas. Then they proceed as follows - either transfer the finished patterns onto paper, or give free rein to their imagination and draw figures as they see fit.

It is not necessary to cut out single figures. Armed with stencils, it’s easy to recreate a real full-fledged picture on the window. For example, this could be the house of Father Frost, near which there is a sleigh drawn by reindeer, his granddaughter Snegurochka is walking nearby, and snowflakes are in the air.

- this is the most common pattern for vytynankas. First you need to draw a snowflake by hand or print a ready-made template. Then glue it to the glass using a soap solution. To make a snowflake look like a real one, you will need toothpaste. It is diluted with water so that the consistency of liquid sour cream is obtained, then a toothbrush is dipped into it and hands are run over the pile so that splashes fly away from it. These splashes should fall on the glass, namely around the snowflake. The result should be a snowfall effect.

How to make a deer stencil?

With a slight movement of the hand, a New Year's deer can appear on the window. For this you will need:

1. White paper (A4 size).
2. Scissors (manicure).
3. Knife (stationery).
4. Pencil.
5. Grater.

First of all, you need to decide what kind of New Year’s deer will be - drawn with your own hands, or printed from the Internet. On the Internet you can find a huge number of ready-made templates, which you just have to print and cut out all the excess. To do this you will need a sharp utility knife. If you use regular scissors to cut out small parts, the stencil can easily be damaged - wrinkled, cut off excess or an uneven cut.

For those who have a knack for fine art, you can try drawing a deer by hand. For this you will also need plain white paper. Cardboard should be used only when the stencil is not intended for a window, but, for example, for a Christmas tree as a hand made toy.

The size of the stencil depends solely on how the master wants to see it. The finished vytynanka is glued to the window with soapy water and sprinkled with “snow” - toothpaste. As an alternative, you can use special decorative snow, which is sold in the form of cans at any “Everything for creativity” store. Unlike toothpaste, it does not need any special preparation for application. Just shake the can and spray.

Why is making vytynanka useful for children?

Adults and their young children can make a template (stencil) for gluing various figures in the form of deer or any other animals onto windows. Firstly, the baby will definitely like this activity, if only because he will do it together with his parents.

Modern people have very little time left to spend with their children. Making for windows on the eve of the New Year is a real chance to spend time with your family doing a useful activity. The kids will be pleased to do something for everyone, becoming the most significant person for the family for a few hours.

In addition, creating a template (stencil) is also useful because this technique develops fine motor skills of the hands. This skill is very useful for preschool children. In the future, the baby will not have any problems with the need to cut something exactly out of paper. Plus, making a template for figures on windows is useful because this technique activates a person’s creative thinking. In the future, this may play into the hands of the child when choosing his profession. It is possible that just because of such activities, the grown-up child will want to connect his life with some kind of creative activity.
