We are used to associating the pasta to Christmas crafts for children, but in reality it is a very versatile food, which allows you to create decorations and decorations for the Christmas tree also very elegant and delicate. If you don’t believe us, take a look at the creative ideas we have selected, you won’t believe your eyes.
Angels
Angel-shaped decorations are made by creatively assembling pasta of various shapes. Start with the simplest ones and gradually experiment with alternative combinations. Before giving shape to the angels, remember to color the dough with gold, then join the various parts with hot glue. Butterflies are perfect for the wings, the feathers for the body, the smallest paste for the hair.
Stars
To make the Christmas stars you will need 5 pens and 10 larger pens: use hot glue to attach two pens next to each other and add a pen in the middle, continue like this with the rest of the star. Add a string to hang the decoration from the branches of the tree.
You can also try using other types of pasta.
Little men
If you feel like trying alternative routes, pasta men could be for you. Use a pen for the slightly curved macaroni torso and limbs, add another piece of pasta for the head and some pasta (or something similar) for the hair. Paint everything gold and when the paste is dry, proceed by attaching the various pieces with hot glue. Complete by adding a thread to hang the decoration.
Saplings
The wheels are perfect for creating original Christmas tree-shaped decorations in a “miniature” version. Get at least thirty of them and join them to form the base of the tree, removing a wheel as you go up the level. On the last wheel, i.e. the tip, tie a thread to hang the decoration, and don’t forget the trunk.
Snowflakes
To create snowflakes to hang on the tree you must first select the suitable paste and dye it blue, light blue or white. Take inspiration from the ideas you see below, join the various pieces of dough with hot glue and add a matching ribbon to hang the decorations.
