Christmas tree topper just in time!
My kids kept asking for a star on the top of our tree so in keeping with the rolled paper theme I made this one:
Similar to the wreath:
And banner:
And ornaments:
Here’s how I made the topper:
1. Cut a cardboard tube about 6″ and staple shut one end:
2. Prepare paper rolls. Using old paperback books tear pages in half:
3. Roll into cone shape and hot glue:
4. Make lots of paper rolls:
5. Start gluing rolls to tube in circular star shape:
6. Brush ends with white glue:
7. Sprinkle on glitter and shake off excess.
Ready.
The tree has been topped and now we wait impatiently wait for Santa.
From the side:
Merry Christmas.
