Experience the magic of Christmas in a new, creative way! And simply make an original Christmas tree from terracotta pots. This DIY project not only makes for a unique festive decoration, but is also great fun to make. Whether you're experienced or new to crafting, these instructions will help you create a festive highlight for your home with little effort.
A Christmas tree made from clay pots
Paint the terracotta pots with craft paint in dark green and leave them to dry well.

Cover the edges of the terracotta pots with double-sided adhesive tape, remove the protective layer and stick the gold ribbon around.

Using assembly glue, first stick the terracotta pots together to form a pyramid, then decorate everything with golden star sprinkles (also stick on).

For the star on the lace of the terracotta Christmas tree, you can use a craft blanks made of acrylic, wood or polystyrene, size approx. Ø 10 cm. Coat your star with napkin varnish and then sprinkle it with glitter: first take one side of the star and, once the varnish and glitter have dried well and fixed, decorate the second side of the star with the glitter.

Glue the star to the lace of the terracotta tree and decorate it in your home, together with some fir greenery and pine cones.
