Origami "Santa Claus"

To decorate a house for holidays is a nice and kind tradition that allows us to create self-esteem for ourselves and our families. And the New Year is a special topic. Unfortunately, recently Christmas decorations and toys are very expensive. But in this case, the situation can easily save hand made. You can easily make jewelry yourself. How? We suggest that you fold the origami "Santa Claus", a detailed instruction on the implementation of which will be provided in this article. True, for starters, you better try to master the basic techniques and terms of the technique of folding pieces of paper. For example, you need to know for sure that origami can be single and modular. What does it mean? In the first case the figure is executed from one single sheet, in the second - from several. Santa Claus from paper - origami, which will be executed in a modular key. That is, we will make several pieces of different paper, and then glue them with glue. So, you can use multi-colored paper, but you should make sure that the sheet on both sides is the same color. Santa Claus from the modules - origami, which will look very realistic.

Let's proceed to the figure. You must remember that Santa Claus has a white beard and a collar. And the coat and hat are red. Therefore, to perform the origami "Santa Claus" you will need 1 white sheet, 5 red and 1 sheet of flesh color.

First, we make a face on the principle of persons for dolls. On it it is necessary to draw eyes and a red nose. After this, proceed to the execution of the beard, the gate and fur on the hat.

The coat of our Grandfather Frost will be made of paper perimeter 24 centimeters. We bend this sheet twice in half.

Then it will be necessary to deploy the top part. The left corner of this top should be turned to the right. Then turn the workpiece face down. After that you will need to open the top part to connect the bottom and right corners. And the left will just need to connect with the right. We do the same thing behind.

By the way, to make the figure more beautiful, and the corners perfectly smooth, you need to iron the part using an iron. We turn the handcraft, bend the corners to the center. Then we bend each corner to ourselves. In order to get a hand, you need to bend the right flap of our figure. The same thing needs to be done on the other hand to make the second one.

The face will be round with a diameter of 3 centimeters. Glue it to the workpiece. Just like the coat, we make Santa Claus a hat.

You can make the origami "Santa Claus" and in another way. This figure is more stylized under Santa Claus, so the coat will be blue. But if you want, you can make it red. The grandfather will turn out to be quite large, so the paper will need quite a lot.

First, we add standard triangular modules. They should be 25 white. They are added in three rows by a ring. Then you will need to make blue or red triangular modules - they must also be 25. They form a 4 circle.

The beard of Santa Claus is white, so the 5th row will consist of three white triangles. In the same row, add 22 blue.

Then it will be necessary to increase the beard in width: add 4 white and accordingly 1 blue less. Then we go by the proportions - 5 and 20, 6 and 19. And so on up to 11 rows. At 11, you will need to place your mouth - this is one red triangle. White must be 24.

Then it will be necessary to make a hat for our Grandfather. First we make 22 white triangles - this is fur on the cap. Then 20 blue, and then again cut back - 18, 16, etc. Now you need to make your hands. These are 9 blue triangles and 3 white triangles. We connect the white with the blue, we make the mitten.

Sometimes there are difficulties with the face. Origami "Santa Claus" can be painted, and you can cut out the features of a paper and paste it to a figure. You can also use eye sights for soft toys: the pupils in them somehow turn amusingly funny.
