Last year I took a picture of a Christmas Tree I saw on display at Starbuck’s. I never got around to making one last year, but I finally got around to making one this year.
Supplies:
Styrofoam Tree (I got a package of 2 at Joann’s)
3 sheets of printed digital paper (I used And To All A Good Night)
Low Heat Glue Gun
Small Terracotta Pot or Bucket

Step 1
Cut the paper into 1.5″ x 11.5″ inch strips. Then cut those strips into 3/4″ pieces. You will need a few strips cut up.

Step 2
Slightly curl the strips around your finger. Use the low heat glue gun to attach the strips to the styrofoam in row alternating patterns.

Step 3
Continue making rows until you reach the top of the styrofoam. You can then attach a printed out star or other element as a tree topper. I didn’t add anything to mine as you can see.
Step 4
Turn the pot or bucket upside down. Use some glue dots on the bottom of the styrofoam to attach to the pot or bucket.
