Egg Carton Christmas Tree

I cut the egg carton cups out so there were rows of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 cups.

I then set the egg carton cups on a cardboard box and traced around it in pencil to make a tree shape. Don't forget to add a tree trunk at the bottom.

After I cut out the tree shape from the cardboard box, I had my daughter paint the tree part green and the trunk brown.

I then had my daughter paint all the egg carton cups green. (If you're wondering why my daughter's hands are tinted green, we had a little fun in between painting the cardboard box and the egg carton cups by painting our hand and arms.)

After everything dried, I then used a glue gun to adhere the egg carton cups to the cardboard. (Tacky glue would work too, but it will take longer to dry.)

I also glue gunned a piece of fabric ribbon on the top back end of the Christmas tree.

Then the kiddos got out the tacky glue and decorated the Christmas tree with pom-poms, sequins, and pipe cleaners.
