How to Make a Pom Pom Christmas Tree
Looking for a cute and easy Christmas craft? Make this fluffy pom pom Christmas tree using a paper cone, glue, and pom poms! This festive DIY Christmas tree craft is perfect for both kids and adults who love creating handmade holiday decorations.
Yield: 1 pom pom tree
Cost: $5
Materials
- Beige cardstock (or other colour to match pom poms)
- Beige pom poms (various sizes)
- Cream pom poms (various sizes)
Instructions
Step 1: Find what you need
- Gather your supplies and materials.
Step 2: Make the cone base
- Trace a plate or something else round onto cardstock. Cut out the circle.(Our circle is 8-1/2 inches across, but the exact size doesn't matter.)
- Fold the circle in half and cut it down the middle, creating 2 equal pieces. You'll only need 1 half to make your pom pom Christmas tree.
- Roll the cardstock around itself to create a cone.
- Secure the edge of the cone with hot glue or tape.
Step 3: Add pom poms to the cone
- Gather a bunch of pom poms in a variety of sizes and shades.Here we're making a neutral Christmas tree with beige and cream shades, but you can choose whatever colour you'd like, or even make a multi-coloured tree!
- Begin by adding hot glue to a small section at the bottom of the tree. You'll want to work in small areas, because the glue dries really quickly.
- Place a pom pom into the glue so it meets the bottom of the cone.
- Add more glue to the cone and press pom poms into place. Push them so they're snug together, hiding the cardstock base.
- Repeat all the way around the cone. Finish with a smaller pom pom on top, so it covers the tip of the cone.
- Your pom pom Christmas tree is complete!
