Egg Carton Christmas Tree Craft

November 20, 2018 by Jackie Cravener

It’s not even Thanksgiving yet and my son has been begging for us to put our Christmas tree up. I usually wait until the day after Thanksgiving so I thought maybe I could hold him over with an easy Christmas tree craft so he could decorate his own little Christmas tree himself. This is a simple holiday craft that reuses egg cartons and some random craft supplies as the Christmas tree decorations. I let Jace pick out what we should use to decorate our ‘trees’ with and it was so fun seeing just how creative he got with this project.

Supplies Needed:

  • Egg Carton
  • Acrylic Paint
  • Paint Brushes
  • Scissors
  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Pom Poms
  • Glitter Glue
  • Buttons
  • Glue Stick
  • Card Stock Paper

Directions:

To begin you will want to take an egg carton and cut your pieces for the tree: a row of 3, a row with 2, and two single egg cartons. Take your brown paint and paint the stump of your Christmas tree using a single egg carton that you cut out. The rest of the egg cartons will be painted green.

After your paint has dried you’ll want to take a hot glue gun (this step for an adult) and glue the egg cartons to a thick piece of card stock paper like the image below so that it looks like a tree.

And finally you can start decorating! We used everything from pom poms to buttons and even glitter glue, so be creative!
