DIY: Stacking Paper Christmas Trees

It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas… especially in our home. We have been really busy around here making some great DIY Christmas crafts, hanging up lights in the chilly weather (actually Kevin does that) and putting together a baking to-do list…I am so ready for Christmas Cookies. In the mean time, this little craft is great for kids and adults.

Stacking Paper Christmas Trees? Yes! I had TONS of leftover holiday themed scrapbook paper from my advent calender, so I put it to good use and spent a little quality time with my niece and nephew a few days ago.

You’ll Need:

Glue

Scrapbook Paper (Or Construction Paper)

Sequins or buttons or Glitter

Scissors

To start things right, I made a template to make the craft a little easier. In fact, it is FREE for you to download too…

Stackable Christmas Tree Template

Directions:

1. Download Free Stackable Christmas Tree Template

2. Cut each shape out of a different pattern paper

3. Fold each patterned shape to make a cone and glue together

5. Glue each cone top to attach the cones together

5. Glue glitter, sequins or buttons to dress each tree up

Display and Enjoy!

  • Shout out for National Pet Day to Finley who came at the perfect time to bring our family joy! After losing our beloved Bentley, I really thought I wouldn’t want another dog for awhile. Just about a month later last fall, this precious Mini Goldendoodle captured my heart from @d_shalom_goldendoodles! To say we are in love with him would be an understatement! He is super sweet, smart and just the best! Love his little heart shaped nose! #nationalpetday #minigoldendoodle #goldendoodle Dog bed from @tjmaxx . . . #lakewoodranch #bestdog #beatdogever #furbabies #dogbed #bohodog #sarasota #dogsofinstagram

  • Miss Lilah Chapel danced beautifully in her very first dance recital! I enjoyed every second and might have shed a few tears! She stepped out on stage and starting waving at me, pointing telling everyone I was her mommy and saying hi! The music came on and I was watching this beautiful girl I had prayed and dreamt about twirl around. I was instantly overcome with emotion and gratitude! God surely is so good! . . . #lakewoodranch #woodlandfineartsacademy #dancerecital #ballerina #ballerinasofinstagram #sweetgirl #danceforjesus #dancingforjesus
