HOW TO MAKE CHRISTMAS TREE CUPCAKE TOPPERS

Supplies you will need:

cupcakes
green cardstock paper
Christmas tree cupcake toppers printable
tan paper straws (we found ours at Target in the bargain section)
tape
acrylic craft jewels
foam star stickers
scissors
glue

Directions:

1. Start by printing off the Christmas tree cupcake topper printable on green cardstock paper.

2. Cut out the triangles. Also, cut your paper straw in half. Attach the paper straws onto the back of the triangles with some tape.

3. Decorate your tree with your acrylic craft gems. My preschooler did this step and I adored how all of her trees turned out so bright and colorful. Then add a star foam sticker at the top of the tree.

Insert the Christmas tree cupcake toppers into the center of your cupcakes. I pressed mine to the very bottom of the cupcake. We made our cupcakes with white frosting so it would look like snow under our trees.
