These Felt Christmas Trees are so fun and easy to create and will put you in the holiday spirit in no time! Simply glue layers of felt over a Styrofoam cone, which are easily found at any craft store. Each piece of felt is cut in an arch to match the size of the cone. Cut the felt edges with decorative scissors or rotary cutters with scallop, wave, or zigzag blades, to add even more visual interest. Add as many or few felt layers as you please and experiment with your favorite colors. Wool blend felt was used in this example, but really any type of felt will do.

Now it’s time to decorate the tree! Gather a collection of colored pearl head pins and various sizes and colors of sequins. Stack a combination of the sequins on the head pin and push the head pin into the foam. Scatter the ‘ornaments’ to your liking and you’re ready to sing carols and drink hot cocoa!

I love using non-traditional colors for holiday decorations – especially pink, green, and turquoise. These colors lend a fresh and modern vibe to holiday decor. Try grouping an entire forest of these felt trees in various sizes on a mantel or cake stand sprinkled with glittering snow.
