You Will Need (8 things)

  • Button(s)
  • String
  • Liquid craft Glue if you want to embellish your tree with buttons like I did
  • Washi Tape
  • Scissors
  • Hole Punch
  • Eyelet and setter if wanted
  • White Card Stock

Steps (11 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    Start with a white piece of card stock and some washi tape. Place a piece of tape on your paper, downwards, thinking it`s the stem of the tree. My tape is about 12 cm long, but you can make the tree any size.

  2. 2

    Now we add branches to the tree. Start with a short piece of tape on the top.

  3. 3

    add more. Crooked is cool.

  4. 4

    Now we are getting somewhere.

  5. 5

    Voila,- a christmas tree with the nordic feel!

  6. 6

    To make the tree an ornament, or into a gift tag, cut around the tape.

  7. 7

    Punch a hole in the top of the tree.

  8. 8

    Add an eyelet if you want.

  9. 9

    I want to hang the tree in my window, so I tied a piece of string trough the hole.

  10. 10

    Using liquid glue, I decorated my tree with buttons. Use what you have though,- like gems and half pearls.

  11. 11

    Hang it! Make a garland, attach it to a card blank and make a card, embellish your christmas gifts or hang it in your window. Merry christmas :)
