New Year is a time of gifts and miracles! Only sometimes it is very difficult to decide on a gift. And if you are going to make a gift with your own hands, then you should get pretty creative.
I would like to bring to your attention an excellent gift option - Tea Tree. But since the main tree of the New Year is a Christmas tree, that means we will make a Christmas tea tree.

It is very easy to make such a gift, and you can give it to a loved one, or as a compliment you can give it to a good housewife, teacher or neighbor. In any case, such a gift will delight and impress everyone and will become the central element of a festive tea party. In addition, this is a very budget-friendly gift option!
In its creation, you can use palettes of all colors and any tea aromas.

To create a tree, we need:

Polystyrene foam cones
- individually packaged sachets (their number depends on how large the cone is)
- glue gun
- a small box to use as a base
- wooden stars or other star baubles for decoration
- rice

Let's start by attaching the tea bags starting from the base of the cone. Place a thin line of hot glue along the top edge of the back of the tea bag and then attach it to the cone. Keep the tea bag in place while the glue dries.

When attaching the next tea bag, slightly overlap the previous one. Finish covering the entire base and then repeat the gluing process until you reach the top.

Using glue, glue a small box to the base of the cone.

For added stability, add some rice to the bottom of the box to act as a weight, then use glue to seal the top of the box.

Attach the wooden star to the top of the cone, again using hot glue.
When it's time to drink your tea, carefully tear the tea bags off the tea tree and enjoy!

Everyone loves tea... Yes, some prefer coffee, others like cocoa. But hardly anyone will refuse a cup of strong, fragrant, aromatic tea. Tea as a gift is a universal and absolutely neutral solution. A tea gift can be given to anyone - be it a colleague, boss, teacher, doctor, hairdresser or old friend. Neither gender, nor age, nor interests, nor the character of the addressee matter. Everyone loves tea...

The gift should not only be pleasant, but also beautiful. Both packaging and design are important. If you decide to give tea, you can purchase a “take and give” product. Many manufacturers have products in gift format. Loose and bagged tea is sold in beautiful tin cans, wooden boxes, and boxes. In principle, such a gift does not require additional elegant packaging.

Gift products from tea producers

However, you can approach the formation of a gift creatively, that is, you can independently choose both the product and the “frame” for it.

How interesting is it to give tea as a gift? We bring to your attention 10 ideas.

1. Tea maker set

When compiling sets, tea is complemented with related products. This could be cookies, sweets, a jar of honey, an original teaspoon, a pair of teas, a teapot, a box of brown sugar, lollipops, lemons, etc. You can accompany the gift with a book - for example, a tea encyclopedia or a publication of tea recipes.

The gift set is presented in a box, basket or bag (a rough linen bag would be appropriate).

2. Tea jar

An option similar to the previous one, but in a more modest embodiment. Today it is fashionable to present transparent jars with simple gifts.

You can take a special storage jar with a glass lid on a clip. However, an ordinary jar with a metal or nylon lid looks no worse. It will not be difficult to decorate it with a label, tag, “hat”, lace, or a tag on a rope. You can place funny or heartfelt inscriptions on the paper design, for example:
- Sweet holidays to you
- Keep calm and drink tea
- And let the whole world wait…
- Antistress
- Natural sedative

What should I put inside? Assorted tea in bags, small packs of loose tea, candy, teapot, stevia packets, etc. In general, everything related to tea drinking fits in a jar.

3. Teapot with filling

Tea bags or a tea set can be placed directly into a new teapot, which will become both part of a gift and a “gift box”.

The kettle can be anything: ceramic, plastic, metal, glass. Each option is good in its own way. The advantage of transparent is that it does not hide its delicious contents from view.

4. "Full Cup"

A small tea set can also be assembled directly in a mug. A lot can fit in a container with a volume of more than 350-400 ml: for example, a dozen small sweets, about 15 tea bags and a spoon.

It is advisable to wrap the mug with the filling in a transparent package.

5. Tea house

In kitchenware stores you can find very beautiful and cozy house jars (they are also called dispensers) for tea bags. Bought, filled and presented. Simple and beautiful.

6. Tea cake

Edible and inedible gift “cakes” are made from a variety of things: sweets, chocolates, money, toys and even diapers for newborns. A similar structure can be made from tea (from small boxes or tea bags). The gift will be more interesting and tasty if you combine tea with chocolate.

Low cylinders made of cardboard, polystyrene foam, etc. or cylindrical cans-boxes with sweets are used as a base.

The base of this “cake” is a cylindrical tin box of cookies. Link to the needlewoman

Tea bags are secured with paper clips or with an elastic ring, on top of which a decorative braid is placed.

7. Tea box

We select any cute little box and fill it with tea - an elegant gift is ready.

You can, of course, immediately buy tea in a box - many manufacturers have such gift sets. But, firstly, ready-made kits can be quite expensive. Secondly, they do not always present exactly the tea that you would like to present.

8. Tea Christmas wreath

This is a gift idea for New Year and Christmas. Such homemade gifts are presented only to fairly close people.

A popular tea wreath model is a cardboard ring to which wooden clothespins are glued. The tea bags are fixed on them. It is also necessary to provide a ribbon for hanging the wreath.

Along with tea bags, you can attach chocolates to clothespins.

9. Tea tree

Another tea gift idea for New Year and Christmas. Now it is fashionable to give gifts to friends, family and colleagues. Some of these Christmas trees are eaten and drunk with pleasure after the holidays (if they are made from candies, cookies, tea, etc.).

Content

Probably not a single holiday is complete without a sweet table. For some, skipping the main courses and going straight to cakes, pastries or sweets is a nice thing to do. We're not talking about kids, for whom there can never be enough sweets. Since the long-awaited New Year's Eve awaits us, it's time to think about how to create New Year's compositions from candies. Stock up on resources, use your imagination, call the children and let’s create together.

Christmas trees made from candies

Let's combine these two New Year's attributes and try to make an alternative to a live Christmas tree - a sweet tree.

The easiest option is to glue various candies onto a cardboard base in the shape of a cone and decorate the composition with beads, rain and other decor. If the candy wrapper itself is beautiful, then you can glue it right away, but if you want all the candies to be in the same style, then just wrap each one in foil.

The combination of sweets and small chocolate bars looks good. For a sweet Christmas tree, you can also use unpackaged gummies or jelly candies. Use skewers and a foam cone base.

"Pineapple" from candies

For this pineapple we need:

• a bottle of champagne;
• candies;
• glue gun;
• corrugated paper in green and orange colors;
• glue gun;
• twine for decoration.

First, each candy needs to be decorated in orange paper, as shown in the photo:

This will make it easier to attach the candies to the bottle, and the composition will look more like a pineapple. After this, all the candies in a checkerboard pattern need to be glued to the bottle.

To decorate the top we use green paper petals, which can be tied to the neck of the bottle with twine or twine.

How many people there are, so many options for creating a “pineapple”. We invite you to take a look at some of them.

Please note that some needlewomen pre-wrap the bottle with fabric or paper.

Improvise, look for your own design option for a bottle of champagne.

Decorative candy ball

The principle of creating a decorative ball can be exactly the same as in the case of a New Year tree. We can use a foam ball and put jelly candies on it using skewers:

You can use a thick blank ball to cover it with various other candies:

The ball turns out to be quite weighty, so we’re not sure whether it can be hung on a Christmas tree, but it’s very suitable as a decoration for the New Year’s table:

How to make a candy wreath

And again the principle is the same - we take a foam base and decorate it with lollipops, chocolates, gummies, jelly candies and other sweets. If the candies themselves are quite voluminous, then you can use a cardboard blank in the form of a wreath.

You can put jelly or marmalade candies on the foam. Use wooden skewers. The wreath can be hung on the front door of the children's room and each child who enters can pull out a piece of candy from the wreath as a sweet bonus.

You can even use marshmallows of different sizes and shapes instead of candies.

If you do not plan to eat the Christmas and New Year wreath in the future, then you can decorate it with multi-colored candies and open it with varnish.

If you don’t have thick cardboard or foam blanks on hand, you can glue the candies to a hoop using tape or use a metal hanger, which you first need to bend and form a circle out of it. The hook is useful for hanging a wreath.

New Year's candy compositions

For the New Year, you usually don’t need to invent a wheel, but you just need to create things that will be beautiful, bright, and if also tasty, then, in general, beauty! Therefore, ordinary New Year's compositions can be supplemented with several beautiful candies and it will already be original and festive.

For example, for the following composition you will need:

• base in the form of a wicker sleigh (you can choose any other);
• floral sponge;
• fir branches;
• small Christmas balls;
• beads or Christmas tree beads;
• sweets;
• any other decor.

The floral sponge should be placed inside the workpiece and all the elements of the future composition should be placed on it. If necessary, use wooden skewers or a glue gun.

You can choose a wooden chest as a base. It is easier to assemble a composition, change parts, add or remove.

The candies themselves can serve as the basis for a New Year's composition. The candies can be tied with floral ribbon, and any decor that you like can be placed on top.

You can make a bag with candies and cones, Christmas tree branches and glass toys. Similar bags are sold in craft stores or you can sew them yourself.

New Year's candy clock

This is another composition that deserves its own chapter. For it we will need the following materials:

• candies, you can choose the option with flat candies, or you can take more voluminous ones, but not round ones;
• thick cardboard;
• Styrofoam;
• glue gun;
• shiny wrapping paper;
• packing tape;
• crepe paper;
• beads of different colors and coffee beans.

To begin, you need to cut out two circles from cardboard and crepe paper. The diameter will correspond to the size of the future watch.

We cut out one circle from foam plastic - this will be the base of the clock.

You need to cover the cardboard blanks with crepe paper, and then glue them on both sides to the foam.

Use shiny gift paper to decorate the edges of the clock. After this, you can start attaching the candies. Use a glue gun for these jobs.

Please note that the reverse side of the watch can be decorated with pasta, which must first be painted in any color you like. To make the candies stick better to the structure, they can be additionally secured with floral tape.

We lay out the numbers and hands of the New Year's clock using coffee beans and beads.

Depending on what material for the dial, what candies and colored paper you choose, the design of the watch itself will depend, which, by the way, can turn into a New Year's alarm clock.

To create such a watch, you can use a ready-made printed dial, you can even take a real dial (a design that will show the time), you can use small chocolate bars, various multi-colored dragees or lollipops, and chocolate medals as decoration.

New Year's horseshoe made of candies

Luckily, you can make a New Year's horseshoe from candies, which can be either a separate decorative element or as part of an entire composition.

Use thick cardboard as a base, corrugated paper to cover the cardboard, and pretty candies to decorate the entire piece. Again, you can use chocolate medals.

Candies can not be used to decorate the horseshoe itself, but placed at the base as an additional decoration.

And by tradition, at the end of each article we invite you to watch a video master class. This time it will be a New Year's bouquet of sweets:
