How to make the Christmas Trees
Roll a cone out of cardstock.
Staple it together at the bottom.
Trim the underside straight.
Now your tree stands steady.
Cut small strips of crepe paper.
Snip in on both sides of the strips
Little ones can do it too.
Roll the strip out.
Brush glue on the tree.
Wrap the strip around the tree.
A difficult job for little ones.
When crafting with young children make sure you have lots of glitter and gems.
All ready are the Christmas trees, Eefje made even two!
Our little clown thinks of the top of her head for another way to use the tree.
With or without decorations, the trees are a definite eyecatcher on any Christmas table! Happy Christmas!
