HOW TO MAKE A CHRISTMAS TREE

Now I know it is still November, However I am very, very, VERY excited for the Christmas season! So I decided it was time to start decorating.

Here is how I turn magazines in to Christmas Trees:




First off I start with the front page of the magazine, I make a fold that allows the top edge to align with the glued edge.










I then make another fold in the same way, I align the previously folded edge with the glued edge.







Finally I fold the bottom corner up of the page.









I continue to do this until I have folded all of the pages in the magazine.




















I have found it best if you use two magazines for every tree, unless it will be on display in front of a wall. 

You could go a step further and spray paint them once they are finished however I choose to keep the magazines how they are as I feel it adds a bit more colour.

I hope you enjoyed this simple craft. What is your favorite Christmas decoration?
