Supplies needed:
paper plate green acrylic paint paint brush scissors hole punch ribbon or yarn tape stapler brown cardstock paper or brown foam sheet star foam sticker sequins and small poms glue
Instructions:
1. Paint plate green
Start by painting your paper plate green. Let it dry completely.
2. Cut them in thirds
When your paper plate is dry, cut it into thirds, then cut one of the section a bit smaller. When you layer them together with the smallest one on top, you have a Christmas Tree shape.
3. Make 6 holes across paper plate
Use your hole punch to punch six (6) holes across the bottom of each paper plate section.
4. Lace ribbon through holes
Cut a 12-inch section of ribbon for each paper plate section and lace them through the holes. Start by bringing the ribbon up from the back of the paper plate into the first hole and then continue through the holes, finishing with the excess ribbon hanging off the back of the paper plate.
5. Tape excess ribbon to the back
Tape the excess pieces of ribbon to the back of the paper plate to hold them in place.
6. Staple your tree pieces together
When you are finished lacing all your pieces, use a stapler to staple them together into your Christmas tree.
7. Glue tree stump & star sticker
Finish you paper plate Christmas tree craft by stapling (or gluing) on a brown tree stump cut out from your brown paper and adding a foam star sticker at the top.
8. Decorate with sequins & embellishments
Glue on any sequin or embellishments that you would like to decorate your paper plate Christmas Tree craft. Such a beautiful piece of artwork to display for the holiday!
