This year I wanted to make some handmade Christmas decorations... so I made up this adorable marble tree. Not very expensive especially if you are a coupon person like me. :] If you make this project post your version, I would absolutely LOVE to see it.

This year I wanted to make some handmade Christmas decorations... so I made up this adorable marble tree. Not very expensive especially if you are a coupon person like me. :] If you make this project post your version, I would absolutely LOVE to see it.

Instructions

  1. Small craft 1986 1289453505

    Gather all of your project materials.

  2. Small craft 1990 1289453738

    Begin by taking your glue gun. Dab a small amount of glue on the back of the marble and place it on the foam cone, starting from either the top or bottom. (You can choose any color you would like for the marbles. I chose red and white.)

  3. Small craft 2000 1289454061

    Keep gluing and placing your marbles on the cone in any pattern you desire. I did red, white, red, white, and so on.

  4. Small craft 2011 1289454467

    I did the last two lines with green marbles, since I didn't have enough red marbles. I actually think it turned out great even with the green on the bottom. ^_^

    You're almost done, don't forget to do the top.

  6. Small craft 2017 1289455008

    Cut a ribbon string that is long enough to be wrapped around the cone and made into a ribbon. Wrap your string around the center of the cone and tie into a bow. Then simply glue it in place. (You can choose any color or pattern for your ribbon. I chose a red, white, and green snowflake design.)
