I thought I would post how to make origami trees again this year.

They are easy and fun to make with kids.

One year I send a trio of trees as my Christmas card.

You can make the trees out of plain paper and decorate them yourself or use fancy scrapbook paper with the design of you choice.

These trees  can made large or small. The size is up to you. The important part is, the paper has to be cut in a perfect square.

First fold.

Second fold.

Paper sitting like a diamond, fold in the sides.

Now fold the bottom upward.

To stand the tree, pull bottom down and sides outward.

I hope you give these trees a try!

Enjoy!
