Cute yarn paper plate decoration

[Preschool Craft] Perfect for Making Christmas Decorations! Yarn Trees
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.

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.

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.

First, fold a paper plate and cut along the crease to divide it into four equal parts.

Tear green origami paper into small pieces, as you would for a collage, and paste them on to represent the leaves of a Christmas tree.

If you layer and attach the paper plate pieces with double-sided tape, you’ll create bumps and add a three-dimensional effect.

Stick on stickers in your favorite colors to light up the tree, then add a star ornament at the top.

Finally, make a trunk with orange origami paper and attach it, and your Christmas tree is complete.

It’s a Christmas craft that uses simple materials but can be made festive with a bit of creativity.

Cute Minnie Santa origami

Cute Minnie Santa origami

Let’s make a Minnie Santa with origami! It’s cute to stick on the wall as is, and it would also look great combined with other Christmas-themed origami pieces to create a garland or hanging decoration.

First, use one sheet of origami paper to make the face, body, and hat.

Then use several other sheets to make the ears, bow, and scarf.

Since there are parts that require cutting, prepare scissors, a pen for drawing the face, and glue for assembly.

There aren’t any complicated steps, but because you’ll be putting several pieces together, fold each part carefully, one by one.
