DIY Thanksgiving Tree

Kids of all ages would love to do this craft. It's simple and fun to do and you can use any color paint you want. They can also add other things to it I just gave the simple way to do this craft.


Thanksgiving Tree Supplies:

Canvas (any size)
Brown paper
Empty toilet paper or paper towel roll
Craft Paint
Scissors
Glue

Begin by cutting out a tree silhouette from the brown paper. Include the tree trunk and as many branches as you would like. Glue the paper trunk to the canvas and allow to dry.

We went with red, orange, and gold for the leaf colors on our tree. I squeezed a dollop of each color onto a paper plate. Pinch the ends of your empty toilet paper of paper towel roll to create a ‘leaf’ shape that you will use as your stamp. Dip the roll into the paint and stamp them onto your canvas, creating leaves for your tree. We layered the leaves on our tree, rotating through the various colors.

Once the leaves are dry you can use a marker to write what you are thankful for onto your leaves. Fill in your tree throughout the month leading up to Thanksgiving.
