Decorative Christmas Trees Made from Pipe Cleaners
Pipe cleaner Christmas trees are a delightful and engaging craft project that kids can enjoy during the festive season. Not only are they easy to make, but they also offer a chance for children to express their creativity and add a touch of personalisation to their holiday decorations.
The base of these trees is simple yet effective. Corks, cut in half, serve as the perfect foundation for your pipe cleaner Christmas tree.
To create the tree itself, you'll need green pipe cleaners, green craft foam, scissors, a cone-shaped object (such as a funnel), glue, mini pom poms, star-shaped sequins, and Spangle Mix.
Finding the right materials for your project is a breeze. Etsy offers a range of colorful pastel pipe cleaners, including light green, which are fuzzy and suitable for crafts. Ubuy sells a bulk set of 200 fuzzy pipe cleaners in various green shades, thick and fluffy, ideal for DIY projects.
For a more extensive selection, Walmart carries large mixed-color bundles (1050 pcs) with green pipe cleaners included, made from premium fluffy fiber. Other craft suppliers like Girandosol also provide colorful fuzzy pipe cleaners including green in 40-piece sets.
Once you have your materials, it's time to get crafty. Start by shaping the pipe cleaners into the tree form using the cone-shaped object as a guide. After the structure is in place, decorate your tree with mini pom poms and sequins. Kids can glue star sequins to the top of the tree and add pom poms and sequins wherever they desire, allowing them to truly make the tree their own.
With these pipe cleaner Christmas trees, you'll not only have a unique and charming holiday decoration, but you'll also have created a memorable and enjoyable crafting experience for your kids.
