The best home decoration is a DIY decoration. After all, you put your soul and strength into it, and the result is always so different. Therefore, it is worth learning how to make a diamond out of paper. Finding a use for such a cute little thing is quite simple.

Bulk diamond

The main thing in the question of how to make a paper diamond voluminous is a template. You need to print it on paper. Better immediately on the one from which you want to make crafts. Cut out the template and draw a needle along all the lines (this is necessary in order to make it easier to bend). Do it in a line. Now, based on the photo of the finished result, bend the cut out figure. The protruding triangles are the part with which the diamond is glued together. As you can see, everything is quite simple.

This was not the only way to create bulk diamond. There is another one, its template is even a little simpler. Do the same as in the first method and glue the trapezoid pieces to the base of the diamond (hexagon).

Another option for using bulk diamonds is a garland. To create it, make holes on both sides in each part and pull the thread through them. Make knots at the entry and exit points of the thread into the diamond. This will prevent the diamonds from rolling into one pile.

Octahedron

How to make a diamond out of paper easier? Print out the net of the octahedron. Draw a needle along the fold lines and glue in the right places. From afar, the figure is quite similar to the one you need.

This is good if you need to create something like a fancy diamond curtain. Translating the patterns suggested above, drawing a needle along each line and collecting a diamond is much more difficult than an octahedron. And with a large number of octahedrons, it creates just the right impression!

Box

How to make a box "Diamond" out of paper? Print the suggested template. The sides of the diamond itself are marked in pink and orange, and the places with which the craft is glued together are marked in white. The hexagon is the lid of the box.

To create a large box in the form of a diamond you need:

• Whatman sheets.
• Gold duct tape.
• Transparent duct tape.
• Scissors.
• Ruler
• Pencil.

Progress:

1. Draw six triangles andtrapezoids of your size or use a template.



2. Cover the smaller base of the trapezoid with gold ribbon. Cut off the excess.
3. Fold 5 triangular pieces, connecting with transparent tape on the inside. Start lifting the craft, forming a diamond. To anchor the shape, add a final triangle.
4. Glue a trapezoid to the base of each triangle.
5. Align the trapezoids on the inside with clear duct tape.



6. Wrap all outer joints with gold tape.

Done!

Origami

How to make an origami paper diamond:

1. Take a square sheet of paper. Bend it along two diagonals and two times just in half. Unbend. The fold lines have come out.
2. Connect the lines formed by bending diagonally. Should be a rhombus.
3. Lay the sheet open side up and fold the extreme corners to the center from all sides.
4. Cut off the protruding part.
5. Turn off the corner and open it, overlaying it on the sheet. Do this for each corner.



6. Fold two corners on each side to the center.
7. Open the figure.



8. Make another one like this.
9. Glue matching sides.

Quite a complicated assembly scheme. WithIt may not work the first time, but don't despair and keep trying!

Now you know how to make a paper diamond. You are unlikely to find a use for one copy, but if you make a lot of multi-colored diamonds, then a lot of room for imagination opens up. For example, take a clear vase and fill it with these gems, or put them in a flower pot. Looks very cute and stylish. Do not throw away the template, for sure you will still need it. After all, such a decoration will dilute any boring interior!
