Christmas Crafts to Enjoy with Kids: Stylish and Easy Ideas (21–30)
Puni Puni Snow Globe
It’s a snow dome with a squishy, puffy texture you can enjoy.
It would make a nice little gift for children.
Fold a rectangular sheet of construction paper in half to make a crease, then open it and punch a large round hole in the center of the left side.
On the right side, place Christmas stickers where they’ll be visible through the hole, then attach a clear bag filled generously with laundry glue and sequins over them.
Fold the left side with the hole back on top to form the dome section, and seal the edges with masking tape.
Glue a piece of construction paper cut into the shape of the snow dome’s base under the hole, decorate the remaining open areas cutely, and you’re done.
A classic Christmas tree made from a single sheet of construction paper
Here’s an idea for a Christmas tree that also works as a lampshade.
All you need is one sheet of green construction paper.
If you want to decorate the tree, prepare any embellishment parts you like.
First, cut the paper into a square, then fold it into a triangle twice.
You’ll find two pockets; open each and flatten them into squares.
With the center of the origami facing downward, fold both lower edges to the center line on both sides.
Unfold all the creases and squash-fold them into triangles.
The large triangles become the tree’s foliage, and the small triangle at the top becomes the trunk.
Cut slits into the foliage to create the jagged look of fir leaves.
For the trunk, roll the corners inward and glue the ends together to form a ring.
Decorate with your chosen parts, then place it over an LED light.
How to make a cute pom-pom Christmas tree
Let’s make a cute Christmas tree using decoration balls.
Prepare 25 decoration balls in your favorite colors, floral/arranging wire, origami paper, and decorative parts.
First, separate the balls into groups of 9, 7, 5, 3, and 1.
Thread each group onto wire, twist to secure, and form pom-pom rings.
For the single ball, insert a U-shaped bent piece of wire.
Roll the origami paper into a cone to create the base, then slide on and stack the rings in order from largest to smallest.
Finally, insert the single decoration ball at the top and decorate to finish.
Make it with construction paper! A cute 3D Christmas tree to display
This is an idea for making a tree by stacking parts of different sizes.
It’s simple yet looks beautiful—perfect as a tabletop Christmas decoration.
First, prepare five circular sheets of construction paper in different sizes.
Draw radial lines on each sheet to divide them into 16 sections, then fold the lines in alternating mountain and valley folds to create a shape like a closed umbrella.
Thread these onto a bamboo skewer from largest to smallest to form the tree shape.
However, if you thread them as-is, the paper will open under its own weight, so wrap some masking tape around the skewer as a stopper before sliding each piece on.
Fix the skewer to a plastic bottle cap for the base, and top the tree with a star to finish!
No-sew yarn Christmas tree
How about making a Christmas tree with cozy, warm yarn? There’s no knitting—just wrapping the yarn around a base—so it’s an easy idea to try with kids.
First, cut cardboard into the shape of a tree.
Then stick double-sided tape on the front and back of the three edges, peel off the backing, and staple the end of the yarn to the back.
From there, simply wrap as you like! Once you’ve wrapped it all around so the base doesn’t show, tie off the yarn so it won’t come loose, and decorate with ribbons or gem stickers.
Add a string and you can use it as an ornament, too.
