Felt Christmas Tree

I find myself looking for ways to keep my girls busy during winter break from school. They always want to do a craft project. It nice to find projects that they can do without much supervision. Then I can get my Christmas list finished while they are busy and not using electronics.

Here’s what you need to make your own Felt Christmas Tree:

Step 1:

Fold your green felt in half lengthwise.

Step 2:

Begin at the top center point and start to draw the shape of one half of a Christmas tree. It doesn’t have to be perfect and you can correct your drawing as you go. I like to end the bottom with a trunk so just draw a line going down after your last row of branches.

Step 3:

Step 4:

Gather all of your felt tree decorating supplies. The options are endless when it comes to what you could use, but we choose Holiday Stickles Glitter Glue Set, Holiday Bag of Buttons, Nordic Washi Tape, and Glitter Pom-Poms. I used Glue Dots to adhere the buttons and pom-poms.

Step 5:

Stand back and watch the creativity of children come to life.

I think that felt is a great medium for kids to use. It’s soft and forgiving and easy to cute and glue on.

Step 6:

Kids can use different adhesives to attach accessories to their felt Christmas trees or they can simply decorate the trees without actually sticking anything to the felt. This makes the trees reusable.

And there you have it. An adorable kids craft that is perfect for the holiday season. Kids will love making these and the mess is minimal so you won’t mind either.
