Supplies Needed:
Paper plate (1 per tree)
Clear tape
Green paint
Glue
Multi-coloured pom poms
In order to make the cone shape, you will need to cut a chunk out of your paper plate. Find the centre and cut out a wedge.
Roll the plate into a cone shape and seal with tape. Since you will be painting the cones, keep all the tape on the inside. I made little rolls of tape and used that to hold down the outer flap down. If you find you need tape on the outside, wait until your paint is dry before taping it down. Paint your cone green. While it will work to paint your plate before making the cone, I've always found that my girls loved the idea of painting on the cone shape. Sometimes it's fun to mix things up and paint on a different shaped object.

After the paint dries, glue on all your pom poms.
You can add sequins to it to make it sparkles, glitter etc
