How to make these DIY Paper Christmas tree with Quilling papers 

Start with choosing the shades of quilling strips you want. I have made 3 different colors of DIY paper christmas tree with quilling paper – shades of pinks, oranges and greens. Whichever is the colors of strips you have, try to select colors nearer to each other. And if you do not have quiling strips but have colored papers, you can cut them out into strips and make these trees.

Once selected, cut these into pieces about 3-4″ long. How I did was to mix all the colored strips first and then fold them into 3 or 4 parts (depends upon the length of the strip) and cut them out. That way you would have already mixed the shades and created a variant.

Take your popsicle and add a double sided tacky tape all over it , just leaving a bit at the end as the trunk. You can use glue as well but then it make it a little messy hence the tape. Spread out the cut out quilling strips over the taped popsicle stick just randomly. You might have some strip that are straight, some a little tilted and some space not covered etc but don’t worry about that.

You need to add layers of similar quilling strips till you feel all the space has been covered completely. SO add another tacky tape at the center ( on the 1st layer of quilling strip but at the position where the popsicle rests). Repeat the procedure and add your second layer of leaves. All these trees here have 3 layers of leaves and it totally depends on your choice.

Once you are satisfied with the thickness, cut out the strips to for a neat edge for the tree. I told you they were simple!

You can add embellishments as well to make them extra pretty. I added a glitter star on top of all the trees and additionally, for a few of them, I added a little coordination sequins here and there.
