Paper Trees

I saw these super cute trees on Martha's site forever ago. Then I saw them on like 1000 other blogs. But I never stopped to look at the directions.

These puppies are EASY!!!

You cut 5 circles (2, 3, 4, 5,and 6 inch diameter) ...this is really only easy if you have a circle cutter...but I DO!

Then you fold it in half four times, using a bone folder to make it smooth. (a little tip, if you don't have a bone folder and you do have one of these Pampered Chef Nylon Pan Scrapers:
it will work just as well! Just make sure it is clean! ;D

Then you snip of the tip and hot glue them to a skewer.

And then hot glue them to a spool.

I am thinking these would make cute decorations for a tree too!

Yeah, I saw these too. Sadly, my apartment is lacking horizontal space. I wish I had a mantle.
