4. Now make a few coils using quilling strips in assorted colors. You can make them loose or tight – whatever you like. Make four brown loose coils as well.

5. Take a rectangular piece of green craft paper and gather all the green loose coils prepared in step 1 and 2. Use craft glue to stick 5 loose coils in a straight line, towards the lower side of the green colored craft paper.

6. Continue sticking rows of the loose green coils, one above the other. As you move upward, keep reducing the number of coils in a line by 1, so that you end up with a triangle pattern.

7. Stick the red teardrop shapes on the top end of the triangle. Glue them together with the pointy end out, so you get a 5 point star pattern.

8. Okay, your tree is nearly ready! Cut the craft paper along the outer edge of the Christmas tree, including the red star.

9. Use the assorted colorful coils to decorate the tree, by simply gluing them on either side. Add 4 brown coils on the bottom side of the tree in a square pattern to make the tree trunk.

10. Finally add a small bead on the center of the star pattern if you like. Let it dry and it’s done!

This DIY Paper Quilling Christmas Tree Ornament is quite multipurpose. Of course, you can attach a string and hang it on the tree with an equally cute Paper Quilled Wreath Ornament, but you can also make a handmade Christmas Card with it. Or, why not attach it to a piece of card to make it go with these Christmas Gift Tags? See, a little effort and a few strips sure go a long way!
