These Halloween cone trees are really affordable and easy to make using fabric,
poster board and lots of hot glue. Start with a piece of poster board.
Roll it up using one corner as the tip, and hot glue it together.
Then, cut the base of the tree flat.
Next, cut and iron the fabric strips. Mine are four-inch strips
folded in half to be two inches wide.
Now let’s put it all together. Cut a strip for the base of your tree.
Glue it all the way around the base, lining up the ironed crease at the bottom of the tree.
And then fold over the fabric and glue it across the seam.
Fold and glue the edge of a fabric strip, and glue it over the seam to attach it to the tree.
Then work your way up the tree, gluing along the top of the strip
and overlapping the fabric below to cover the frayed edges.
When you get to the end of a fabric strip, fold over
and glue the edge to the tree. Then attach a new fabric strip over it like before.
Keep gluing the fabric around the cone tree until it goes over the top,
so you can fold it down to cover the tip of the tree.
Leave yourself a couple inches of fabric and cut off the rest.
Fold over the frayed edges along the top and side of the fabric strip, and glue it all down.
