How to make a mini Christmas tree out of paper

Cardboard mini Christmas tree

Prepare

• 2 green A4 size cardboard
• Drag
• glue
• Pen
• Glue and glue gun

Making

Step 1Pine tree cutting

Stack two sheets of hard paper on top of each other and then fold them in half lengthwise so that the two sheets are even.

Then, you use a pen to draw a sketch of a Christmas tree on the outside of a piece of paper and then cut along the lines you have drawn.

When opened, you will have two identical pine trees.

Step 2Cut the intersection points

Proceed to fold the pine in half horizontally so that the pointed end of the pine is facing down. This works to determine the correct center of gravity of each pine tree.

Next, you use a pen to mark the intersection of the vertical and horizontal folds.

Then, you use scissors to cut a slit at the top of the tree down to the point you just marked. The remaining pine is cut from the bottom to the intersection point.

Paper mini Christmas tree

Prepare

• Blue crepe paper
• Drag
• Glue
• Small zinc wire

Making

Step 1Cut crepe paper

First, you spread the crepe paper on a flat surface and then fold the crepe paper into several layers (the more layers you fold, the stronger and more beautiful the Christmas tree will be).

Next, you cut the crepe paper into long strips, the width of the strip is about 4-6cm wide.

After you have cut into strips, you continue to cut small tassels about 1cm wide. Finally, you separate the layers of the cut paper. In this step, you should do it very gently so as not to tear the tissue paper!

Step 2Shaping conifers

Twist the tassels of the paper with your hands to form needles like the leaves of a pine branch. Repeat until you run out of pre-cut strips of paper.

Step 3Shaping pine branches

When you have twisted all the paper tassels into needles, take a small zinc wire and place it on the end of the paper strip. Then, you apply a little glue so that the zinc wire is fixed to the paper and then slowly wrap the paper strip around the zinc wire from left to right to form a pine needle branch.

Repeat until the end.

How to make a mini Christmas tree with wire

Prepare

• Shaggy wire
• Multi-colored rattles
• Small porcelain pot with a diameter of 3cm
• 12cm long bamboo skewers
• Bow Accessories
• Glue
• Drag

Making

Step 1Wire wrap

First, you wrap the ruffled wire around the skewers, leaving the bottom 2cm of the bamboo stick to plug into the porcelain pot.

Step 2Splitting the wire of the floors

To create a Christmas tree with 4 floors, divide the trunk evenly so that each floor is about 1.5 cm apart. In each floor, there will be main branches and auxiliary branches.

Counting in order from the bottom up, the layers of leaves will be smaller. The 4th floor will have the widest foliage, so you need to cut the wire into 3 pieces 10cm long to make the main branch and 12 pieces 4cm long to make the side branches.

Step 3Wrap and shape the pine tree layers

Fold the zinc stalk in half and wrap it around the trunk to make the main branch.

Continue to wrap 2 auxiliary branches to each main branch and prune the branches evenly.

After that, you continue to cut the wire wrapped around the trunk to make the layers of leaves in the order of 3, 2, 1 as follows:

• 3rd floor: 3 segments 8cm long as main branches, 12 segments 3cm long as secondary branches.
• 2nd floor: 3 6cm long as main branches, 6 2cm long as secondary branches (each main branch has only 1 side branch).
• Floor 1: 3 segments 4cm long as main branches, no side branches.

Wrap and shape the pine tree layers

Step 4Complete

Stick a little glue on the part of the tree that is not wrapped in wire and then plug the trunk into the pot. In this step, you should bend the branches of the pine tree to balance and hang some more rattles on the tree.

You can also stick fabric bows to decorate the pot as you like.

• Cotton
• Ribbons
• Small stick 15-20 cm

How to make a mini Christmas tree with felt

Step 1Sketch and cut out the shape of a pine tree

First, you sketch the pine tree shapes on the felt. Then, you use scissors to cut the fabric according to the pre-drawn lines.

Every 2 pine shapes will make 1 pine, so you will depend on how many pine trees you want to cut the pieces just enough.

Step 2Stack the 2 pieces on top of each other and then use a sewing needle to fix the 2 pieces.
