Craft Supplies:

Most of these supplies can be found at dollar stores, making this an incredibly budget-friendly craft project.

  • Jumbo Popsicle Sticks – 3 per craft
  • School Glue
  • Green Craft Paint
  • Paint Brush
  • Small Paper Plate
  • Green Pipe Cleaners
  • Scissors
  • Brown Cardstock Paper
  • Embellishments

Directions:

  • First have children assemble the base of their tree by gluing THREE popsicle sticks together to look like a triangle.
  • Set aside to let it dry.
  • Repeat for each craft stick tree piece you want to make today.
  • Next squirt some paint on the paper plate and have children paint their newly made popsicle stick shape completely green.
  • Again, set aside to let it dry completely.
  • Repeat for each piece.
  • Now grab your scissors and sheets of cardstock paper.
  • Cut out a small rectangle for the bottom of the craft, as well as a star shape for on top.
  • Go ahead and glue those two pieces to the popsicle stick piece to represent the trunk & star of the tree.
  • To finish off the Pipe Cleaner and Popsicle Stick Christmas Tree pieces – grab your pipe cleaners {about two to four per craft} and have children fold/wrap them around the popsicle stick shape to represent lights and garlands {because of the wire in the pipe cleaners, they will stay put without glue}
  • At this point in time, they can also glue on some glitter and rhinestones on top of the pipe cleaners as ornaments.
  • Once done, set it all aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
  • For displaying – glue some string to the back for easy hanging on the tree or adding to gift packages!
