You Will Need (1 thing)

  • Old Book

Steps (5 steps, 10 minutes)

  1. 1

    Grab you book and using a knife or fingers (that's what i did - no idea where my craft knife is!)carefully peel off 30 pages. Make sure and keep the binding together, you don't want to peel each page off individually! Keep it in a clump!

  2. 2

    On you first page, make a fold by pulling the top right hand corner of the page and make it meet the edge of the binding.Give it a good rub to make a crease.

  3. 3

    now fold that piece over on itself again so the top right corner is now touching the binding

  4. 4

    A tiny fold on the bottom to tuck in your overhang and now repeat these stages 30 times please!

  5. 5

    Voila, you have finished and now have a lovely Christmas tree. I may give my one a dusting of gold spray paint or leave it as it is. Either way it looks brilliant!
