Instructions
- Start by choosing and printing a Christmas cone. Print on paper that suits your chosen materials – depending on what you’re using: - For coloured pencils or crayons, print on standard copy paper - For markers, use slightly thicker copy paper or lightweight cardstock, as markers may bleed through thinner paper - For watercolour or liquid ink, print on watercolour paper- For acrylic paint, print on watercolour paper or lightweight cardstock
Decorate
- Use your favourite materials to decorate the cone and handle. Feel free to mix colours, use pencils, markers, glitter, or combine oil pastels and watercolours. Each sheet includes two cones, so you can experiment with colours or try new designs. And if you're not satisfied, you can always print another cone.
Cut and Assemble
- Once decorated, cut out the cone and handle. If you’ve decorated only one cone, you can double up the handle so it’s decorated on both sides.Else, cut the handle lengthwise.
- Fold the glue tab inward – a ruler can help create a sharp edge for easier assembly.
- Apply glue or double-sided tape to the tab and assemble your cone. Use a pencil, thin marker, or similar tool to press the glue tab from the inside.
- Remember to add your name and the year inside the cone – it’s always lovely to rediscover your creations each Christmas.
