Christmas Gift-Christmas Trees

Materials & Supplies Needed Directions


Seasonal Gifts!

Materials & Supplies Needed

  • Styrofoam cones (any size you desire)
  • Tissue Paper (at least 3 different colors)
  • Mod Podge glue (Gloss or Matte, I prefer glossy)
  • Glitter (optional)
  • Yellow felt
  • Elmer’s Glue
  • Scissors
  • Paintbrush

Directions

  1. Cut the tissue paper into small squares, 1 inch. (I used a Mickey punch out but squares will work just fine as well or another small shape).
  2. Add some mod podge into a small bowl and mix in a little glitter to the mixture if you’d like a little sparkle.
  3. With the paintbrush start painting an area of the cone with the glue mixture. You will want to start with a small portion so it doesn’t dry up on you.
  4. Once you paint a spot with glue, gently place a tissue paper on top of it.
  5. Then gently paint more of the glue mixture on top of the tissue ensuring that you got all the corners and the tissue down.
    • The glue will dry clear.
  6. Continue painting more of the glue mixture then placing tissues on top until the full is covered.
    • Don’t do the bottom
    • Overlapping little bits of tissue paper looks great.
  7. Once done check again by painting more of the mixture if any of the tissue paper isn’t lying flat.
  8. Allow time to dry.
  9. Cut out a star using the yellow felt. Then glue onto the top.
  10. With a sharpie write your name and year on the bottom.
