Christmas is coming soon, woohoo! It by far my favorite holiday and I get giddy decorating for it. Since we have a new house this year I have different spaces that I need to create and decorate for. We actually have a mantel this year and I’m so excited about it. It very large, so I had to get some things on there that are pretty tall. I love the look of styrofoam cones tree into Christmas trees, so I shopped at Consumer Crafts and got some awesome cones for super cheap!
I had a great time shopping on line at Consumer Crafts, here is all the good stuff I got:
This is what you’ll need:
This is how I made them.
I first painted the styrofoam cones with white acrylic paint just to give it a nice surface that won’t just soak up the glue.
Using a spray adhesive and some awesome green glitter, I sprayed the cones and then sprinkled the glitter all over the cone.
Here is the cone with all the pretty glitter!
I did it with 3 different colors! I used extra fine glitter and some medium glitter.
Aren’t they so pretty with the sparkle in the background? I love them!
I also made some trees with wrapped yarn. Super easy and fun.
I just wrapped the yarn around and used a glue gun to keep the yarn on.
I love how they look on my holiday table. So simple but so pretty!

I would use it to cut out SNOWFLAKES! I have a weakness for them and can't get enough when it comes to Christmas decorating!
