Christmas

Tis’ the season to get crafty with our Christmas craft ideas. We will get you in the Christmas spirit with hundreds of activities to choose from.

Popstick Christmas Tree Ornament

  • Step 1Begin by giving five popsticks a coat of white paint and allow to dry. This is not essential but provides a good base for painting.
  • Step 2Paint one popstick with brown paint and the remaining four popsticks with green paint. Allow to dry.
  • Step 3Carefully cut one green popstick in half and cut roughly 2cm off the end of another green popstick. By doing this you will create a variety of lengths of green popsticks.
  • Step 4Starting at the bottom attach the green popsticks to the brown popstick in order of size, longest to shortest. Make sure you leave approximately 2cm below the longest popstick as a tree trunk.
  • Step 5Decorate your popstick tree with chenille stems. Cut one piece 6cm long and another 8cm long, bend these slightly to fit the tree as we have done and attach with glue. To make a star, bend a chenille stem to make five corners, twist the two loose ends together and secure to your tree with glue.
  • Step 6As a finishing touch, decorate your tree with sequins. Attach with glue.
