- When the outline is outlined, remove the pattern and carefully chip off the details with pins before starting to cut.
- On the cut out part, mark the lower border, to which there will be a line. We scribble along the pencil line, leaving a hole on the lower tier for eversion and stuffing. We make out the corners of the bottom.
- We turn the Christmas tree, straightening the rounded corners, slightly stretching them with our own hands. Felt is plastic, it is easy to add volume to it. We fill the Christmas tree and sew it by hand with a hidden seam.

Then they are turned inside out, folded into a pile and stitched along the vertical axis. After that, each blade is stuffed and sewn up with a blind seam.
For the Christmas tree, several stars of various diameters are sewn from pillows. They can be strung on an axis, sewn together, or simply folded on the table and used as cushions as needed.

New Year holidays are coming! Everyone rushes to the shops for gifts, but handmade gifts will bring more joy than store bought ones. In this tutorial, I will show you how to make a decorative felt Christmas tree with step by step photos. Such a Christmas tree can be placed at home on a shelf, at work on a table or in another convenient place. It also makes a great gift for friends and family.
In order to make this decor element we need:
- green felt;
- multi-colored buttons of different sizes;
- filler;
- 2 eggs from kinder surprise;
- cardboard;
- yellow fleece;
- satin red ribbon 3 mm wide;
- decorative braid;
- pink corrugated paper;
- barbecue skewers;
- putty;
- green threads;
- red knitting threads;
- glue gun;
- decorative element - a rosette, you can use any other.
On a piece of paper, draw and cut out the shape of our Christmas tree.
We put the Christmas tree pattern on the green felt, circle and cut out two such details.
From the variety of buttons, we choose different buttons both in color and in size.
We combine by colors and sew in a chaotic manner to the felt.
The next step is to assemble the Christmas tree. We put the resulting parts on top of each other. For convenience, we cut off with needles.
It is better to start with a rounded top, along the way, you should immediately fill it with filler, it will be much more convenient to do this now.
Now we will make boots for ours. To do this, take two eggs from the Kinder.
The small part should be cut as shown in the photo.
Thus, when the two parts are combined, something similar to a shoe is obtained.
We put the resulting shoes on cardboard and cut out two soles. We wrap the sole with corrugated paper and fix it with a glue gun. Also, using a gun, we glue the parts of the boot to the sole.
Next, glue a piece of fleece on the boot, where the piece of fleece is rectangular, one side is equal to the side of the sole plus a small allowance, the other side is equal to the height of the boot, plus a little more to fold the fabric inside the boot and secure. We make small folds in front of the boots and fasten them with a needle and thread.
We glue the decorative lace on the bottom of the shoes, fold the remaining fabric on top inward and glue it.
To make the legs of the Christmas tree, we take four barbecue skewers for each leg. For convenience, we take two plugs designed to fasten the radiator fasteners, which are shown in the photo.
We insert skewers into them and wrap the legs with red knitting thread.
We insert the legs into the non-wired Christmas tree connectors, and fasten with a needle and thread.
Using a glue gun, we fasten the legs and boots.
We breed putty and fill the boots of our Christmas tree.
We make small bows from satin ribbon and glue them on the shoes.
We also glue a decorative element to the top of the Christmas tree.

Christmas tree made of felt
There is no doubt that the Christmas tree is perhaps the most important symbol of the New Year. In every home, it should be in one form or another. Someone prefers exotic and originality, for example, a design in the form of a triangle of branches decorated with garlands, someone traditional live with a lot of balls and tinsel. Whatever you prefer, it will all be reminiscent of a fabulous winter time, when wishes are made and dreams come true.
The more trees in the house, the better. Let me show you what you can sew from felt for the New Year, and what you need for this.
First of all, Christmas decorations. Christmas trees can be both flat and voluminous, sewn from soft Korean felt. By the way, sets of multi-colored felt sheets or individual pieces, for example green, you can see here and here. Very cool store, I shop there often.
In order to make such beauty, you will need the material itself in green shades, threads, a needle, ribbons or laces for eyelets and accessories for decoration. And it is not at all necessary to have a sewing machine, as you can see from the photo, with great success all this beauty is sewn with the help of hands.
But in addition to Christmas decorations, mini Christmas trees made of felt look very beautiful, which can be presented to relatives and friends as a souvenir or put on the table to decorate the interior.
To do this, you may need a cone made of foam or cardboard. They are sold in craft stores. But even on your own you can make a blank from paper.
Leaves cut out of felt are glued on top. They can be of any shape and size, it all depends on the idea.
Agree, this kind of fake will always please the eye, and give the house a special festive atmosphere. A little imagination and you will succeed.
But this was one of the options, the second is done a little differently. A stand in the form of a pot is taken as the basis, the base is a stick, and the tree itself is sewn from soft felt. As a filler, as a rule, a synthetic winterizer acts. It turns out original and sooo beautiful.
From scraps of felt in the form of circles, you can also make a New Year's fake. In this case, a needle and thread is not needed at all. To do this, several circles of different diameters are cut out and glued onto the base - a cone or a stick of a suitable diameter. Simply and easily! Beads, buttons, ribbons and sparkles can be used as decorations.
And here are a couple more original ideas - a wreath on the door and a voluminous felt Christmas tree. In this case, all the elements are cut out with curly scissors. It turns out very beautiful.
Well, the last few ideas that will undoubtedly please the children.
Christmas trees that can be dressed up for each kid as much as he wants. Such a game will not only train creative thinking, but also develop fine motor skills. I would love such a gift. Moreover, more effort is not required here. You can cut out their large sheet of felt Christmas tree according to the template. But Christmas toys can be made from ready-made prints. You can see an example of felt with a pattern here. Get it fast and neat.
Well, that's all for today! Have a festive mood and do not forget to look at a couple more articles on the topic of the new year!
Good luck and see you soon!
