Paper Plate Christmas Tree Craft
If you’re ready to start Christmas crafting, get the ball rolling with this Paper Plate Christmas Tree Craft. I started to phrase that in the form of a question, but then realized that of course you’re going to want to get the ball rolling with this Christmas tree craft! No question. It’s a goodie!
This is such a perfect start to the Christmas holiday. We made our Christmas tree craft with poms for the baubles. Go simple with the colors of poms and use just one or two, or get crazy and use them all. Because some people prefer an understated Christmas tree, and some people go all out.

Paper Plate Christmas Craft Step by Step Directions
Start by cutting a paper plate.
You will want to cut it in three sections.
Before or after you cut, paint the plate green. Let the paint dry completely.
While waiting for the paint to dry, cut a star from yellow cardstock and a rectangle from brown.
Then, when the paint is completely dry, glue the three paper plate sections together, one on top of another.
