3D Christmas tree made with origami

Origami Christmas Tree How to Make It [Christmas Decorations]

This is an original Christmas tree made by combining pieces of origami.

It’s easy to make with just origami paper, scissors, and glue, so you can enjoy crafting it with your children or friends.

First, fold the tree’s leaves, then cut away any excess parts.

Adding jagged cuts helps create a realistic tree look.

For the trunk, the key is to use glue and scissors to shape the parts so they can stand.

Connect the leaf and trunk pieces, then make a star and attach it to finish.

It’s also recommended to add decorations or drawings to the completed tree.

Pom-pom tree

A fluffy-looking pom-pom tree that brings a sense of comfort is also recommended.

For this idea, use decorative balls you can buy at 100-yen shops.

There are various types of decorative balls, but the best are the soft kind about 1 cm in diameter.

Once you have them, simply glue and stack them into a tree shape to complete it.

It’s also lovely to make and display a Santa Claus alongside it.

If you do, be sure to have felt and beads ready.

When it comes to Christmas trees, many people look forward to the lights.

That’s why I’d like to introduce Christmas tree lights.

This is a craft where you place an LED candle inside a handmade tree.

It may be small, but it lights up beautifully.

And because it uses an LED candle, it’s a great option for those who want to use candles but are concerned about having small children around.

You can also change the color of the tree to add a colorful glow to your room.

The tiered, cute fir tree has such a simple, charming look, doesn’t it? This Christmas tree is made using cardstock and felt.

Use the cardstock as the base, attach felt on top, and layer it to create the stepped tiers.

Cut the cardstock while measuring with a protractor, and use a 1-yen coin to trace the rounded shape at the hem.

Since you only need felt, cardstock, and glue, it’s an easy handmade Christmas tree you can make with materials you likely already have at home.

It would surely look adorable in a variety of colorful combinations, too.

Why not try making a romantic Christmas tree with your favorite ribbons? The finished look is gorgeous, yet it’s easy to make.

You can easily find ribbons at 100-yen shops and the like, so choose any design you like.

First, make the base of the tree out of thick paper.

Once you’ve made a cone-shaped tree, it’s helpful to draw guide lines to make it easier to attach the ribbons.

Make loops with your chosen ribbon, apply double-sided tape, and start sticking them on from the bottom of the tree.

Keep layering them upward, and once you reach the top, add a star ornament to finish your tree.
