Select your favorite photos, reduce or crop them so that they are the same size. Print on photo paper or cardboard, cut and poke holes in them with a needle. Cut a few threads 10-15 cm long and thread them through the holes in the photo.

Probably, every woman is looking forward to the approach of one of the most wonderful and tender holidays - March 8th. Men are no less worried about him. True, if the former crave it because of receiving immense attention and care, then the latter think about how to surprise their soulmate and give her a pleasant surprise. Of course, this is a very difficult task, especially considering that it is difficult to surprise a modern woman with anything.
The way out and a great solution can be a gift made in the "handmade" style. Perhaps this will be an addition to the main gift, but, one way or another, it will definitely make a strong impression. In other words, you can surprise a friend, mother, wife, acquaintance with the help of a hand-made thing. About what crafts should be given and how to make them, we will consider in more detail in the article.

What are the best gifts to give?

If you have clearly decided to present a hand-made craft by March 8, then you will certainly have a question what to choose, and what “handmade” is in fashion today. Therefore, here is a list of the most popular gifts of this kind.
Perhaps more popular and more beautiful than a gift than flowers - no, but if it comes to crafts, then the flowers should also be original and handmade:
  • flowers made of paper;
  • hairpin flowers;
  • original painted bouquets.
An undoubted sign of attention will be a postcard, again invented and implemented at home.
Various jewelry is always in fashion.
Of course, the choice is by no means limited to this, because you just need to show a little imagination and creativity, and then the matter is small.

Do-it-yourself gifts on March 8: a little about the secrets of technology

Making gifts with your own hands requires not only creative invention, but also patience, attentiveness, and an understanding of the technology of their creation. That is why here are some tips on how to make a handmade gift.
As we have already noted, one of the simplest, but most beautiful gifts for International Women's Day is considered to be a bouquet. One of the options for such a bouquet can be a set of lush flowers from paper napkins. Such a thing is easy to create and requires a minimum amount of materials. In particular, you will need:
  • scissors ;
  • glue;
  • stapler;
  • and, of course, the main "ingredient" - napkins. Moreover, you can combine different colors, a single-color option is also possible.
Armed with everything you need, follow these steps.
  1. Fold your napkins in half.
  2. Staple in the center using a stapler and cut around the circumference.
  3. Spread the petals, removing the circles towards the center, starting from the top layers.
  4. Glue the resulting flowers to the base, which can be, for example, a balloon.

DIY postcard for March 8

Again, using your creativity, you can create any postcard. We will give one example of the implementation of such an idea.
To create a postcard with flowers for March 8, we need:
  • paper;
  • cardboard;
  • scissors;
  • glue;
  • scotch;
  • decor (buttons, beads).
So here are the steps to create.
  1. Fold the cardboard in half.
  2. Bend the two corners from the front side of the future postcard so that they match in the middle.
  3. Use glue to attach small paper bows to the resulting triangles.
  4. The back surface can be decorated with any decor (beads, paper clippings, etc.).
  5. After complete drying - put under the press.
Thus, whatever gift idea comes to your mind, the main thing is that it was made by you. This will not only pleasantly surprise its recipient, but also show your true sincere attitude, since hand-made gifts are made with love.

We will repeat again: a gift that you make with your own hands will be priceless for a loved one. After all, at least you put the warmth of your hands and a small piece of your soul into it. And even though there are a million ready-made surprises for sale in stores today, we offer to make your mother, grandmother or sister really pleased. You have probably already appreciated our ideas for making chic postcards with your own hands. Now let's get to the giveaway!

  • several coffee filters;
  • some flower wire;
  • small pliers;
  • high quality watercolor.

On a note! Not everyone has coffee filters, which means you need to know how to replace them. Beautiful crafts for March 8 are also made from corrugated paper (or any other thin paper). The shape is more important here: the paper should be round.

  1. So, if you are using coffee filters, then prepare four to eight of them. In this case, you get one flower. The splendor of our flower depends on the number of sheets of paper or filters.
  2. We put all the filters or sheets of paper in a pile and bend in half, then again, and again.
  3. Now you need to cut off the edges so that the future petals take shape. Use a wavy shape or experiment with different patterns.
  4. Now half of the filters need to be set aside, and the other part should be cut a little more (by four to five centimeters). If there are fewer filters in the center of our future flower, then it will look more realistic.
  5. Now put all the filters unfolded on the table. Small parts should lie on large ones (as in the photo below). Now we draw a wire through the center of all the blanks, bend it and pierce the paper again. The distance between the two holes should be at least five millimeters. To secure the wire, twist it around the back of the flower.
  6. Now squeeze the paper and lift it up, without stopping twisting a little. This should be done with every filter. See how it's done in our photo tutorial. Now the base of our bud needs to be wrapped with wire.
  7. Now, with the help of green adhesive tape, the flower must be wrapped, starting from the bud and ending with the tip of the wire. It is desirable to give filters a pleasant shade. Coloring them is easy: use watercolor, which can be diluted with water, then the colors will turn out to be more delicate. You can use not one color, but several at once. Ready! This is how quickly and simply unique beautiful crafts for March 8 are created with your own hands.

You will need:

  • several sheets of thin colored paper (can be replaced with corrugated paper);
  • some wire; sharp scissors.

  1. From the paper of the chosen color, you need to cut circles. There should be three of them, use different tones. The diameter of the part should be an average of six centimeters.
  2. Now we take the wire. You need to cut off a piece and bend it in the shape of a circle (as in the photo below). The length of the wire should be about twenty centimeters.
  3. Now take yellow paper and cut out a couple of small circles. They need to be glued to the lower and upper parts of our bud.
  4. All the circles now need to be folded and in their middle make a small hole through which you can pass the wire. As for the crown of the flower, a small loop can be made from the tip of the wire there. Our stylish flower is ready! Such crafts in the form of flowers on March 8 will perfectly decorate festive table, so do several things at once.

You will need:

  • sharp scissors;
  • green adhesive tape;
  • several skewers;
  • glue;
  • several old magazines.

  1. For work, not all pages of magazines are suitable for us, but only the most colorful and bright ones. Pull them out and fold them in half. Then we turn all the halves to the fold in the center, as in the photo below.
  2. On the side where the folds, carefully cut the fringe. There should be at least one centimeter to the base.
  3. The paper blank is wrapped around our skewer, as a result we should get a bud. Now, with the help of adhesive tape, the bud needs to be fixed at the base. The green ribbon is used to turn the skewer into a stem.
  4. We dissolve the fringe so that our bud is as lush as possible. Giving one such flower is cute, but the bouquet will look much more spectacular. Crafts for March 8 mom do it yourself!

Original do-it-yourself craft: we make a rose in a waffle cone

  • a few waffle cones (you can buy them at any point where they sell ice cream);
  • stationery knife;
  • a little hot glue (you can also use standard PVA glue);
  • sharp scissors; a couple of sheets of colored paper.

We start manufacturing (crafts for March 8: photo):
  1. We take colored paper, from which we need to cut a quarter of a circle. With this blank, we wrap our waffle cone. The ends are carefully fixed with glue.
  2. Now with the help of colored paper we make a rose right size. However, not necessarily a rose - be guided by your taste. As for the rose, it is done simply: we take paper, cut out a couple of types of petals. Note that the petals should be in the shape of a quarter circle or heart. We glue them all together (see instructions below).
  3. Around the skewer glue the petals in a checkerboard pattern. Now add a little glue to the edge of the cone, attach the bud.
  4. Now you will need colored paper Green colour. Carefully cut out the leaves and use glue to attach them to the cone. By the way, it is not necessary to make a flower with your own hands, you can use beautiful natural or artificial flowers.

You will need:

  • several sheets of thick cardboard (thickness should be about three millimeters);
  • a few thinner cardboard - about two millimeters;
  • glue (you can use hot glue or the standard Moment, the main thing is that it holds very well);
  • a tube of PVA glue;
  • sharp clerical knife;
  • some masking tape; brush for glue;
  • a couple of pieces of fabric. Choose the colors of your choice, however, for the top, we recommend using a dark fabric with floral print, and for decoration inside the box - a light fabric of delicate shades.
  • scissors;
  • stack
  • white paper (one sheet).

Attention! We would call this craft difficult, so we recommend that you follow the photo instructions below in detail.
  1. So, first we need to cut the blanks. For this we use a clerical knife. We indicated all the necessary sizes in the photo below. If you have no desire to make the base of the box with your own hands, then just buy a ready-made box. It is only important that it be made of durable cardboard.
  2. If you are working on our blanks, we assemble the cover and walls of the future product and carefully glue it with glue (as in the photo). The corners inside and outside for strength should be pasted over with masking tape.
  3. Let's get to work with the fabric. To decorate the walls of the box, you need a piece measuring approximately 46 by 9 centimeters. As for the lid, cut out a piece measuring 21 by 26 centimeters.
  4. We glue the box with pieces of fabric. To do this, you need to smear the lid with glue (now PVA) and attach a cloth. Take a look at the photo, how to properly arrange the corners so that it looks aesthetically pleasing. The corners are aligned with the help of stacks.
  5. We can proceed to the design of the side details. The corners need to be turned inward. If there is too much fabric, feel free to cut off the excess.
  6. To decorate the cover, you also need to grease it with glue, attach a cloth and carefully glue the corners.
  7. White paper cut out the same size as the bottom of our box. A piece of light fabric should also be the same size. The corners are cut, everything is neatly glued. At the bottom we glue the workpiece with paper down. You can align all this with a stack. By the same principle, we work with the edges of the lid and side walls. The box is ready! Of course, this is much more difficult than, for example, crafts from napkins on March 8th. However, the one to whom such a present will be presented will definitely be delighted. And it's worth the effort! And finally: if you wish, decorate the lid of the box beautiful rhinestones or large beads. Large pearls will look especially elegant.

You will need:

  • several standard nails;
  • thick thread;
  • your joint photos with your mother;
  • paper clips or stylish clothespins;
  • simple pencil.

  1. First you need to carefully mark the places where the nails will be hammered. We advise you to first mark on a piece of paper a diagram of how the threads and nails will be located. It is much easier and faster to cook crafts if you also indicate the direction in which you will wind the threads with arrows.
  2. Now carefully drive in the cloves and wind the thread around them. The color of the thread is best chosen based on the tone of your walls. If the walls are light, then the thread should be as dark as possible, but if the walls are dark, then choose a lighter thread. In general, play on the contrast: our gift self made should stand out as much as possible. As for nails, it is better to take smaller and thinner options: they will not be so noticeable. It is not necessary that the thread be of the same color - our original wall frame can be multi-colored.
  3. Print the cutest and most beautiful family photos featuring mom. The size of the photo should not be very large, be guided by the size of the frame. You can attach them to the threads using decorative clothespins - these are often sold in shops with souvenirs and all sorts of little things to decorate gifts. Ready! Everything ingenious is simple.

Do-it-yourself candy bouquet for your beloved woman on March 8


Flowers and sweets have long been considered a traditional gift for a beloved woman. Let's try to combine two presents in one by creating original bouquets of sweets. They can be an independent present or go in addition to beautiful box candy. We will need for work: chocolates such as hazelnuts or almonds in chocolate, crepe paper for flowers in 3 shades (green, white, light green), green tape, wire, thread, adhesive tape. We will make a spring flower - a snowdrop.

We work in this order:

  • Cut strips of crepe paper. Based on 5 colors, we need 5 strips of white paper (2x50 cm), 5 rectangles of light green crepe paper (5x4 cm), 2 strips of green crepe paper (2x50 cm).
  • We stick sweets on the prepared wire with glue. We put a drop of glue on the end of the candy wrapper, dip the tip of the wire in glue and wrap the edge of the candy wrapper around the wire. You can use tape. To do this, wrap the edge of the wrapper around the wire and fasten it with tape.
  • We take a light green rectangle and make a wavy edge along the entire length with two fingers. We do the same with all pieces of light green paper.
  • Extend each rectangle from the center to the edge. So we get a recess for the candy.
  • We divide the white strips of paper into 3 identical segments (2x16.5 cm). These will be the future snowdrop petals.
  • We bend each piece of white paper in half, at the place of the bend we wrap a half of the strip along its own axis by 360 degrees. We do this operation with each segment.
  • Fold the twisted strip in half at the place of the twist. Bend the center of the petal with your fingers from the center to the edges. We give the "petal" a bulge.
  • We wrap the light green middle around the candy and fix its end with tape or thread. We collect white petals around the light green middle. We do it with a twist.
  • We fix the petals with a thread around the flower.
  • We cut the tips of the petals at an angle of about 45 degrees. So the transition from stem to flower will be smooth.
  • We take pieces of green crepe paper and divide them into 4 parts. Cut out a leaf from each piece. We bend each by running a finger along the back side.
  • We wrap the stem of the flower with teip tape. We make the first turn twice around the base of the flower. We overlap, insert a leaf a little below the base, after dripping a drop of glue on it.
  • We collect ready-made snowdrops in a bouquet. If a box of sweets is also supposed, then lay them out beautifully and fix them on the box with adhesive tape.

Other “flowers” ​​are made according to a similar scheme - tulips, crocuses, roses.

Photo frame for women colleagues


An exclusive handmade gift is always more pleasant than a purchased, faceless souvenir. Delight the women around you with hand-made on March 8th. Remember that if you want to congratulate a team of women, then it is optimal to prepare several identical presents.

A great gift for female colleagues will be homemade photo frames in which everyone can put favorite photo on the desktop. We make a frame from thick cardboard. We will need the following materials: corrugated cardboard, paper for decorations, decorative elements(buttons, rhinestones, beads, shells, etc.), glue.

We work in this order:

  1. We cut out two parts of the frame from corrugated cardboard - the back (solid) and the front with a hole that fits the format of the photo. As a rule, standard size- 10x15 cm.
  2. We measure out about 3-4 cm, which will be needed to decorate the frame, and add them to the height and width of the future frame on both parts.
  3. Cut out paper strips to decorate the front of the frame. We glue them with PVA glue to the cardboard.
  4. From the back to the front of the frame, glue the back. We do this from three sides, do not glue on top. So we will insert the photo inside the frame.
  5. We make a pattern out of cardboard for the stand. We attach it to the back of the frame with a thin strip of paper and glue.
  6. We decorate the finished frame with beads, shells, beads, buttons in random order. We glue them on a paper base on PVA.
  7. Before handing them to women, you can insert photographs into photo frames - some funny cases or a collective photo.

We carry out the stands in the following sequence:

  • On a piece of cardboard, circle the disc with a pencil and cut out the roundness with a knife.
  • We degrease the surfaces of two discs with alcohol and apply glue to both (such as "Titan" or "Moment"). We glue the disks with a piece of cardboard in the manner of a sandwich: disk, cardboard, disk. For a couple of hours we put the future stand under the press.
  • We cover the hole in the center of the disks with putty. We do the same with the ends. Leave them until the putty is completely dry.
  • We sand the discs with sandpaper and cover with acrylic primer. We leave to dry.
  • We glue paper napkins on the workpiece on both sides with PVA glue.
  • When the napkin dries, we draw along the end with fine sandpaper. So we cut off the excess parts of the napkin.

We work according to the following scheme:

  1. We knit air loops. Their number depends on the diameter of the mug. Therefore, it is recommended to always have a cup on hand, on which a “fur coat” is knitted. We periodically try on knitting to a mug from handle to handle.
  2. We knit the second row without a crochet with a column.
  3. The third row is knitted with one double crochet.
  4. The fourth row is knitted with two crochets.
  5. We knit the fifth row without a crochet with a column and then repeat along the entire height of the cup.
