Steps To Make A Christmas House Craft
Step 1
Get the first template page with an arc and stars, cut the shapes out, and place the arc over the blue construction paper.
Step 2
Use the arc to trace around it and cut out the remaining paper around the arc.
Step 3
Grab the white construction paper and fold it in half lengthwise.
Step 4
Accordion fold it.
Step 5
Cut it in half.
Step 6
Get these two pieces and glue them together end to end.
Step 7
Attach the long accordion fold piece of paper to the blue piece. For this step, fold the blue paper however tall you want it to be. Glue one side and hold — you can use a paperclip to hold it in place while you do other steps because it may pop off.
Step 8
Take the other, bend it around and glue it to the other extreme of the blue paper.
Step 9
Get the other template and cut out the house, tree, snowman, and stars. Here’s the fun part – at least for the little kids – and grab your markers and color them!
Step 10
Glue them to the accordion folds to make the little scene of the house in the background with all the other details.
Step 11
That’s it! Your house Christmas house craft is all done!
