For this craft, you will need a small clay pot, a wooden bead, and an assortment of pipe cleaners, with at least 3 being green. You will also need liquid glue and scissors.
To make your tree, take one green pipe cleaner and fold it in half. Twist it together. Stick the two ends into your bead so they come out the other side of the hole. Bend the ends to secure. Create the tree branches by cutting up smaller pieces of green pipe cleaner and twisting them onto the main one. Adjust as you go so they look the way you want. Once you are happy with that, use the rest of the pipe cleaners to create the “ornaments”. Just cut them up into small pieces and bend them onto the branches. You could even fold a star with the yellow one and hook it onto the top with another small piece of yellow pipe cleaner. Then glue your bead into the pot and let dry. Feel free to paint your pot and bead if you’d like to further decorate!
