Brighten your walls with an easy-to-make Christmas mobile.
The materials are paper cups, straws, jute twine, construction paper, round stickers, and present-shaped parts.
Use the paper cups, construction paper, and round stickers to make Santa Claus and a reindeer.
Create the base of the mobile with the straws and jute twine, then hang Santa, the reindeer, and the present parts to finish.
Use thick, sturdy straws designed for tapioca/boba.
Decorating with tape or origami paper will make it even more festive.

Cut a paper plate in half to make the base for the face.
Snip small cuts along the rim with scissors to create the beard.
Cut a red piece of construction paper into a triangle, add a pom-pom to make a hat, and glue it onto the plate.
Color the center of the plate with crayon to match a skin tone, then draw the nose and mouth.
Finally, make hair with cotton and attach eye parts to complete your Santa Claus.
Feel free to enjoy it by sticking it on the wall or hanging it as a decoration.
It would also look nice attached to a cone-shaped body as a standing ornament.
Crumpled tissue paper tree
https://www.tiktok.com/@buchiko_hoiku/video/7438179122947411220Here’s a cute Christmas tree idea where you stick crumpled tissue paper onto a cone base.
First, roll a piece of thick paper into a cone to make the base and cover the surface with double-sided tape.
Next, crumple green tissue paper and stick it on to fill the base.
Once the tree itself is done, decorate it with Christmas stickers as ornaments.
To evoke snow, loosely wrap white yarn around the whole tree, then add a star on top to finish.
Try using tissue paper in various colors to create a tree that reflects your own style.
Christmas tree with holly and bells
This is an idea for creating a wall tree by decorating it with holly leaves and bells in different sizes and colors.
For the holly, make green leaves from origami paper and red leaves from tissue paper.
You can download a template for the green leaves, so be sure to use it.
For the red leaves, stack three rectangular sheets of tissue paper, accordion-fold them, staple the center, then open each layer to form a flower-like shape.
For the bells, cut yellow origami paper into a half-circle and roll it into a cone shape—that’s it.
Combine them however you like to complete a colorful wall tree.
Christmas lamp tree
Would you like to try making a handmade, tree-shaped Christmas lamp? Light will shine through star- and circle-shaped holes, making it look as if the tree itself is glowing—a lovely idea.
First, draw a net for a square pyramid on construction paper and cut it out, then use a craft punch to make holes in the four side panels.
Imagine you’re placing ornaments and punch the holes in a well-balanced way.
In the center of the square base, make another hole large enough for the tip of the lamp to pass through.
Assemble the construction paper into a tree and decorate the top with a ribbon and a star.
Decorate the sides of an LED lamp, place the tree over it, and you’re done.
Enjoy it in a dark room.
Wall-mounted Christmas tree made from paper rolls
Let’s use toilet paper rolls to create a wall-mounted Christmas tree.
First, keeping the triangular shape of a tree in mind, lay out the rolls temporarily in rows to form tiers.
If a roll is too short or too long, cut it to size.
Once you have the triangle, glue the rolls together row by row, and attach green construction paper to the sides.
After everything is attached, secure the whole piece with tape or similar.
For the trunk, connect about three rolls and wrap them with brown yarn.
Fix the triangular section and the trunk to the wall so they connect, and finish by placing a star at the top of the tree.
Adding origami ornaments will make it look even more charming!
Christmas tree made with ribbons
This is a handmade tree idea that’s completed simply by sticking teardrop-shaped ribbon pieces onto a cone base made from thick paper.
To make the teardrop-shaped parts, cut ribbon to a suitable length and glue the two ends together.
When attaching the ribbon to the base, face the rounded end downward and stick them in a straight line.
If it’s hard to keep them straight, draw guide lines on the base beforehand to help with placement.
Once all the ribbons are attached, decorate the top with a star to finish! Adding small beads for extra sparkle would also look cute.
