(fun simple kids craft project)
What's needed..
A piece of heavier weight paper or cardstock, mine is a 12x12 size and I chose green. :0)
Tape runner, double sided tape, or glue stick would probably work just fine.
Stuff to decorate your paper tree... I chose tinsel and miniature bows.
(You could use ribbon, pom-poms, tiny ornaments or other objects etc..)

I started by rolling my piece of paper into a cone shape..

Then using my tape runner I secured it along the edge.

Cut off the excess.

Added a little more adhesive to secure the edge, and then trimmed the bottom so it would sit up.

Then decorated it with tinsel..

Kind of cute for starting with a piece of paper and a few decorations.. :0)
Would make a cute kids room tree if they don't have one, or make small ones to
use for place card settings.. just add a name. :0)
