Preparing the Paper Rolls

  • Cut each toilet paper roll into different heights (approximately 2-4 inches).
  • Paint the outside of each roll with green paint or wrap them in green paper; let dry.

Assembling Your Tree

  • Stack the painted rolls from largest to smallest to create a tree shape.
  • Secure each roll with glue to form the base of your tree.
  • For added stability, glue the rolls to a base made from cardboard.

Decorating the Tree

  • Use glue to attach your decorations (e.g., sequins, glitter, or pom poms).
  • Attach a star or ornament at the top of your tree.
  • For a wintery touch, apply cotton balls to the bottom of the tree for snow.

Notes

Consider incorporating lights for a festive touch. Create a family tradition by crafting a new tree each year.
