Steps:
1. Lay out your poster board
2. Find a big oval to trace your arc with. We used a sledding saucer but you could use a trash can or big bowl.
3. Cut out your tracing.
4. Start by squeezing the tip to make a point and then start slowly rolling it into a cone. You might have to try a few times.
5. As you can see in the picture you will have excess paper overlapping each other. You want some of that but not all. Where you see the line is where we cut some excess off from the bottom to the tip.
6. Hot glue your cone together, keeping the tip intact.
7. Your going to have to trim the bottom until it sits flat on a surface.
8. Now in sections, spray with adhesive spray and pour glitter. Keep rotating until the cone is covered. Let dry.
9. Once dry, I used my clear glaze spray all over the cone.
You’re done! I hope you enjoy your cute and inexpensive cone Christmas trees. Check out more of our DIY projects and don’t miss out on our FREE ecookbook, “30 5-Ingredient Dinner Recipes”.
