Cute yarn paper plate decoration
Here’s an idea for an easy, seasonal decoration.
First, prepare a paper plate and paint it navy blue to create the base.
Wrap some clear tape around the tip of green yarn, then punch holes in the plate in the shape of a Christmas tree.
Thread the yarn through the holes, and the outline of the tree will gradually appear.
Once the shape looks right, attach decorative stickers and a star ornament to complete the tree.
You can add white round stickers around it to create a snowy atmosphere.
Finally, punch a hole at the top and tie a ribbon, and your cute decoration is finished.
With color and decoration tweaks, it’s a fun winter craft to enjoy with children.

Also great as tree decorations! Disney ornaments
A Christmas ornament whose round shape and cute character design create a soft, cozy vibe.
Get ribbon, construction paper, and glue ready.
Fold a circular piece of construction paper in half twice.
Make eight identical pieces and glue them together to form a half-circle, letting the glue dry as you go since they can come apart easily.
For the top pieces of the half-circle, insert a looped ribbon between them before gluing.
Make two half-circles, then apply plenty of glue and join them to form a sphere.
By changing the color of the construction paper, you can create a variety of Disney characters.
White Christmas tree made with paper doilies
Set a red construction paper as the background and decorate it with a Christmas tree made from white paper doilies for a festive, seasonal wall display.
Shape the tree into a cone and stack two cones to add depth.
Roll a small tube to represent the trunk.
Attach a bell and holly ornament to the top corner, and scatter white round stickers to create a snowy effect.
The contrast of white and red stands out, resulting in a finish that feels both vibrant and warm even with simple materials.
It’s an easy, cute Christmas craft you can enjoy decorating together with children.
Recommended for walls too! Disney-style candy strap
The candy strap, with the cozy feel of yarn as its highlight, can be enjoyed as a strap or as wall decor.
Cut construction paper into Mickey shapes, apply glue, and wrap yarn in a swirling motion to create it.
It’s best to make each part separately—face, ears, and so on.
Changing the yarn color for each part adds a unique touch and could make it extra cute.
If you’re using it as wall decor, skip the strap charm and simply display it on the wall for a festive look with a warm, Christmas-like feel.
Also for the wall! Minnie’s wreath
The Minnie Mouse wreath with green and red Christmas colors is absolutely adorable.
The method is very simple: prepare construction paper cut into separate parts for the face and ears.
You’ll layer red paper onto green paper; if you keep the widths even as you attach them, the finished piece will look well-balanced.
When making the ear parts, keep their proportions in harmony with the face to create a well-balanced Minnie wreath.
Hanging it on an interior wall may heighten the excitement of the Christmas season.
Construction paper Christmas wreath
It would be wonderful if we could make a three-dimensional Christmas wreath using construction paper.
Let’s create a gorgeous, eye-catching wall display that makes you look forward to the Christmas season! You’ll need construction paper in various colors, scissors, a craft knife, glue, paste, tape, and so on.
One of the great things is that you can customize the method, size, and design.
How about making it together with the kids—perhaps a colorful tree, or a tree that looks snow-covered by using cotton? Wishing you a fun and festive Christmas!
Three-dimensional Christmas tree wall
Even if you can’t display a real Christmas tree, this is a lovely idea to brighten up your room.
When you think of Christmas, many people probably picture a tree, right? This time, let’s make a three-dimensional, charming Christmas tree using construction paper.
The materials you’ll need are green construction paper, red construction paper (and other colors if you like), a template, scissors, a stapler, glue, and a ruler.
It’s also fine to choose any colors you like for the construction paper besides green.
Since some steps in making the tree involve small, detailed work, it’s best for children to do this together with a teacher or guardian.
