Description

For a classic Christmas paper craft, use a sheet of green construction paper and a paper towel roll to create a Christmas tree. Add glitter and stars and your craft will be sure to shine brightly.

Resources

15 minutes
Green A4 craft paper, printer paper or thin card.
Sticky tape
Sticky decoration shapes (stars, circles etc)
Glitter & PVA glue (optional)
Cardboard toilet roll / kitchen roll tube OR heavy cardboard
Scissors

Instructions

Begin by making a paper fan, folding along the LONG of the paper.
- Start at one long edge and create a 1 cm fold. Make sure the crease is well made.
- Turn the paper over and - along the same long edge - create another 1cm fold and crease well.
- Repeat until the sheet is folded (concertina'd).

Fold the "fan" in half to create a triangle / tree shape.
Stick the middle edges together with sticky tape to keep the triangle shape.

Use the cardboard tube or rolled cardboard to make a base.
Take a 3 to 4cm piece of cardboard / tube and make two slits in one edge, at opposite sides of the tube.
Slide the paper tree into the slits.

Use the sticker stars etc to decorate your tree.
