What you need:

tree decoration
glue
drag
token

Step by step instructions

Take a piece of blue cardstock and cut it into a rectangle the size of a card. Then you can fold it in half.

Take a piece of red cardboard and cut it out and glue it on top of the blue piece of paper.

As you can see, it makes a beautiful backdrop for a Christmas tree.

Let’s start the weaving part as this is the most complicated part of the craft. Choose two pieces of construction paper, both of different colors.

Don’t cut all the way down, start cutting straight down the paper.

Do this for both sets of papers.

Apply a small amount of glue to a section of cardboard.
