Diamond Post Medal for All Time! 1,246 Posts
Don't throw away that old magazine. With a few folds and some paint, you can make a beautiful Christmas tree!
Total Time: 1 hour, then paint dry time
Yield: 1 tree
Supplies:
- 1 magazine
- spray paint
- snowflake, ornament or star stickers

Steps:
- Starting from the back of the magazine, grab the last two pages.

- Fold the two pages downward, making sure the top is a perfect, crisp point.

- Fold the bottom right angle upwards.

- Continue with the rest of the magazine, two pages for each folded section, until you do the entire magazine.

- Go back to the first fold and bring the right edge into the spine of the magazine, but do not fold. Keep in cylindrical shape.

- Continue with the rest of the pages.

- When you get to the end, fluff up each page cylinder from the bottom with your fingers.

- You might need to glue the magazine cover page to the back cover, but with a hard press of the pages, it should stay in place.

- Spray paint the tree with one coat and let dry.

- Paint on a second coat, let dry.

- Place stickers around the tree to decorate.

- Happy holidays!
