We love all things Christmas! But above all we love Christmas crafting, especially with young kids as this is one of the best ways to make holiday memories.
Most kids won’t remember gifts they got one particular year (well unless it was something extremely special), but spending time with you and creating… That they will remember for a lifetime. Nothing beats spending quality time together, and one of the ways to do it is crafting.
These little Christmas trees can be either as they are (green or ones with little ornaments to color) or you can take them a step further and decorate them with pom poms, gemstones or other mini ornaments.
Ready? Let’s get crafting!
How to Make our 3D Paper Christmas Tree
What you need:
- s stencil / our prinable template (you can grab it at the end of this tutorial)
- green paper or white paper and coloring supplies
- printer
- scissors
- glue
Step by Step
Print out templates.
Cut out the little paper Christmas trees.
Glue on to another. The more the merrier, as your tree will look fuller.
Younger kids can make less as the tree is easier to decorate this way.
When you have glued all of them one on top of the other, apply glue on one of the ends (Christmas tree halves).
“Open up the tree” and glue the two ends together.
