This is another one of those Dollar Tree “awesome find” kid craft tutorials! It makes my job super easy and keeps the budget low too!
Recently I grabbed a pack of large green doilies from their Christmas aisle and it was the perfect “starter” material to make “tree friends” out of. After raiding my craft stash and using random materials to make a Christmas tree come to life on paper, it just seemed too perfect not to share with you all! Once the wiggle eyes were added, I was sold on this idea!
Today’s Paper Doily Christmas Tree Friends, paper art kid craft tutorial is really easy and I can seen it being turned into cards as well.
Find the full tutorial below and happy crafting, my friends!! Please don’t forget to share pictures of your beautiful Christmas trees made from paper doilies, on our Facebook page to admire from a far this holiday season! #gluedtomycrafts
