What joy this time of the year brings B-Crafty and added joy to share her seasonal craft, Pipe Cleaner Christmas Tree. So simple and delights young and old. All are fascinated by the structure and the slight wiggle. Merry Christmas and have the happiest New Year.
Issue #214
Occasion: Christmas
Category: Treat or Table Favor
Materials:
- Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup (Wrapped in Gold or Red Foil)
- Green Pipe Cleaner
- Small Star Bead
- 6 Mini Red Pompom (2mm-5mm)
- Hot Glue
Instructions:
- Twist the piper cleaner around the handle of a kitchen utensil. (I used a pastry basting brush as the handle was graduated in size)
- With hot glue affix the star bead at the top of the pipe cleaner
- With hot glue affix the bottom of the pipe cleaner to the Reese’s peanut butter cup
- With hot glue randomly affix the 6 red pompoms around the tree
B-Crafty Tip: You may need to adjust the top of the pipe cleaner after you twist it to make is narrower or you may have to adjust the bottom to make it wider. All in the pursuit to make the pipe cleaner into a good tree shape.
