Ice cream sticks, paints and some sequins. You just need that to bring the whole spirit of Christmas to your home with a nice craft. The time has come to start decorating the house, an activity that children especially enjoy.

This year you can give a more personal look to the Christmas decorations at home. You can sing carols with your children, write the letter to Santa Claus and make a Christmas menu ... and also make a nice Christmas tree with ice cream sticks.

How to make a Christmas tree with ice cream sticks E 1. Take a little green paint on a plastic palette or glass. With a small brush, paint five sticks of ice cream on both sides, and do not forget the sides. Do the same with the last one, but with brown paint.

2. When they have dried, put all the green sticks together horizontally, one next to the other. With a pencil, mark diagonal lines on the sticks to make the branches of the tree, and cut the excess ends. On the brown stick, mark where the "branches" will go, leaving an equal distance between each one. Remember to leave a little space below, it's the trunk of the tree. Put some glue on each hairline and see sticking the green sticks.

3. Put glue dots on the sticks to stick the sequins, which will imitate the balls of the Christmas tree. Place them carefully, and at the top place the star.

4. Measure three pieces of gold ribbon to place on the tree, as if they were garlands. Put a little glue on each end of the stick and place the tape, so that it is not taut but a little curved. Do the same with the other two.

5. Turn the tree around. Cut a string the size you want to hang the ornament, or use the same gold ribbon. Put glue on the top vertex and place the ends of the string. You can reinforce it with a bit of cardboard.

6. Your tree is ready! A beautiful decoration for your home, that will shine in a unique way.
