    Popsicle Stick Christmas Tree Triangles

    Clearly, we had a giant party with popsicle sticks, stick-on pearls and gems, and glitter glue, right? We bought a whole bunch and then went to town on all kinds of ornaments including these traditional little trees.

    If you're a new subscriber, you should know that I don't just post about crafts, but we are on a big Christmas crafting kick, so that's what you're getting right now. Things will return to normal soon.

    I have made these little triangular trees at least five times in Grace's 8 years. I may even have posted them before here. They're just a fun and easy way to make trees (even easier than the last trees I posted since these don't involve any cutting).

    If you used pre-colored popsicle sticks, it would make these even faster!

    Materials

    • Popsicle sticks
    • Hot glue gun & glue sticks
    • Green paint
    • Paint brush
    • Paint palette or paper plate
    • Brown cardstock, textured if you can find it
    • Stick-on gems, pearls, or buttons
    • Glitter glue
    • Wooden stars or gold pompoms or larger gems for the tree topper

    Instructions

    1. Glue the popsicle sticks in an equilateral triangle.

    2. Paint the sticks green. My kids used a dark green for some of their trees and a light green for some. I didn't like the light green, but I kept my mouth shut.

    I explained at the bottom of this snowflake tutorial why I let my kids' ornaments be however the girls made them. I think there's so much important stuff wrapped up in those blobs of glitter glue.

    3. When the trees are dry, decorate them with jewels, pearls, buttons, or glitter glue.popsicle-stick-christmas-trees-preschoolers-allie2Pin

    4. Glue a tree topper on the tree.

    5. Flip the tree over. Cut a pipe cleaner in half and hot glue a piece in a U shape on the back of the tree.

    6. Cut a rectangle out of the textured cardstock and glue that onto the bottom for a tree trunk.

    That's it. Attach a hook and hang on the Christmas tree. You're done!

    I have to be honest. I don't like these as much as I liked the last trees I posted. I like the colorful ones better, but these are still nice. I especially like the pearly one Grace made that I put in the title image.
