Fork Printed Christmas Tree Craft

christmas tree craft

I was looking for a paint brush to make a different project when I found this plastic fork and immediately got inspired! This was a fast fun and totally cute Christmas tree craft project. My son loved it and it could easily be switched to a wreath , just draw one instead of a tree in step 2. Have fun!

  1. Gather your materials. You will need a plastic fork, a paint brush, a plate,  red and green paint , a marker and an old grocery bag or other paper.easy christmas art project for kids
  2. Draw an outline of a tree with marker.christmas tree craft
  3. Spread your green paint on the plate.
  4. Dip the back of your fork into the paint.Christmas tree craft for kids
  5. Print onto your paper.Christmas tree craft for preschool
  6. When your child is done with the fork prints hand then the brush and red paint to add the lights .christmas tree art project for preschool
  7. Let dry and cut out.

    Painting with a fork – why have I never thought of this? Works for a perfect tree.

    Loved this craft. My 4.5 year old was kind of put off by using a fork for some reason and kept asking for a paint brush. Tried convincing him that it was okay to paint with things besides a brush! 🙂

    Thanks for always sharing such wonderful ideas with those of us who are less than creative!

    Thanks for this great idea. We’ve used it today to make a Christmas tree number line. I’ve linked through from my blog to this page – hope that’s OK? http://nurturestore.co.uk/counting-christms-trees-number-line

    My daughter loved doing this. We used small holiday cookie cutters dipped in paint to add ornaments to the tree.
