Paper Christmas Tree

Inspired by all unusual and creative trees I found on internet I decided to create one to bring Christmas spirit to my office. Here is the result:
If you like it here is step by step "how to".
Materials
1. Thin paper. I used the one that usually is put in the shopping bags in fancy stores and in the boxes with shoes:
2. Cone. I bought it in Michaels store but you can make one from thick paper or cardboard
3. Glue. I used glue gun
4. Spray paint (optional)
5. Garlands, ornaments, etc. (optional)
Step 1. Tear paper to make rectangle pieces
Step 2. Bend each piece and fold the corner like it shown on the picture below
Step 3. Attach each piece to the cone. Start from the bottom.
When you done you'll get something like this  
Like it? If so you are all set. If no - you can cover your tree with paint and add ornaments, garlands, snowflakes....I cover my tree with silver paint leaving the spots where we can see paper color and putted garland on it. 
That's all. Merry Christmas!

Materials:
1) paper for base

5) double sided office tape

Step 1. Cut out the paper сone, put it together using office tape.

Most Creative Christmas Trees

If you want something new for this Christmas here are couple ideas how to decorate Christmas tree.
Lets start with most traditional tree. For decorating a lot of peacock feather and related colors were used. Butterflies and unusual colors and finally peacock on the top.
Next Christmas tree was designed for shops, the form allows to have trees and a lot of space for customers in the same time. You can also use it for leaving more space for gifts:)

For this Christmas tree you should be a fan of Grolsch beer. Or any beer. And work hard to collect all this bottles before Christmas. This trees are made from empty beer bottles and empty beer cans. 
 
Christmas tree for everyone who loves to read paper books. Now we have iPads, iPhones and all this stuff so it is harder and harder find home with real book. Be extraordinary:
Do you have rung ladder? If so you have a Christmas tree. 
What? You have no ladder in your home? ok.. what about paper stickers?

All of the following trees are look good and taste good. Be aware - your guest (or you) can left from last two Christmas tree nothing in couple hours.
Do you love sushi? And know how to cook them? If so next one is for you:
Don't like sushi? What about candies, cookies and marsh-mallow?
You think you have seen all? NO! Potato tree, pasta tree, grits tree and banana tree:


If you have a lot of ties you can also use them as Christmas tree:
Plastic bottles. You must hear a lot how many of them pollute our platen, so be green and save trees and planet, use bottles for Christmas tree:
Two christmas trees that you see below can be a little bit expensive. 
Too expensive? So there are budget trees: gloves, junk and wood, one from pencils and one cloth hanger 
 
Cardboard tree:
Feather tree
Lamp tree 
Tree for crochet work artists:
Trees for geeks:

And finally money trees for everybody:
