DIY Felt Christmas Tree

Day 17 of Blogmas and I can't believe there are only 7 days left until Christmas!! AHHH! Since we are getting closer I decided to make Nate his own Christmas tree before its too late. This is an extremely cheap and easy DIY project that any child will love because they're free to redecorate as many times as they want. So lets get to it... DIY Felt Christmas Tree. 


What You'll Need: 
1 Yard of Green Felt - $3 
Different color strips of Felt - .29 Cents each
Cups to trace ornaments - Items at home
Scissors
Velcro - About 6 pieces. 
Everything is from AC Moore. 

We used a Fabric cutter because its easier and we had one but scissors work just fine.
I had David draw the tree and star because I was afraid I'd mess it up lol. 
Trace the cups (both sides to make different shaped ornaments)


Final look. Felt sticks to felt so no need to add anything to the ornaments. You can add glitter or ribbon but I wanted it simple for Nate to take on and off as he likes. If your children are older have them decorate the ornaments as they'd like. Maybe this'll keep Nate from grabbing the real ornaments on the tree. So far he loves it!
