DIY Paper Christmas Trees.
I absolutely love origami. It’s probably why I’ve written a whole eBook about it 😉. Over the last couple of months, I’ve seen a lot of origami Christmas trees pop up on Pinterest and was amazed at how many different types there were.
I’ve made and shared a couple here on the blog (they’re included in the list below) but I couldn't believe all the amazingly creative origami trees I found. They were all fantastic but I managed to put together a list of 25 of my absolute favourites to share with you.
You’ll be able to use these projects to decorate your home, hang on a tree, pop on gifts or cards or even as a table centrepiece for a one of a kind Christmas ornament.
Get ready to transform your house with an impressive handmade paper tree.
Supplies:
Paper (Origami Paper, Scrapbook Paper or Gift Wrap all work well. You can even get some festive Christmas themed origami paper).
While you can make these with most types of paper I recommend using origami paper or other thin paper like gift wrap as it’s easy to fold and helps your origami keep its shape.
I even have some printable origami paper you can download and use for FREE. Simply download, print and cut into 7x7-inch squares.
