Craft Ideas: Cupcake Christmas Tree - Notes | Study Hands on Art & Craft - Class 1

Material Required

1. Cupcake liners in shades & patterns of your choice – 3 for one tree
2. Popsicle stick
3. Embellishments
4. Hot glue gun
5. Twine
6. Glue and scissors

Directions to be followed

1. Start by choosing cupcake liners of your choice. We loved using a check-patterned green liner for this craft, but you can go with spots or stripes!
   
2. Fold each cupcake liner into half and again into a quarter. Try not to open the cupcake frills totally so that they stay a little fluffy, like a Christmas tree.
3. We need three cupcake liners for one tree. Fold two liners into quarters as described in the previous step. Stick them on the Popsicle stick, overlapping just a little and taking care to leave behind space at the bottom for the tree trunk and at the top for the third cupcake liner.
   
4. Apply tacky tape/tacky glue on both sides of the top of your Popsicle stick. Fix the third cupcake liner as shown. Use glue to seal the open flap of the liner.
5. Make as many liner trees as you like! Try out an assortment of patterns to make it more interesting.
   
6. Stick your embellishment on the top of the tree and add a twine to hang them. It can be buttons, stars, stickers – anything that catches your fancy!
