Tree made of bubble wrap and tempera on the table






Christmas creation is inherent to the Advent season. Did you know that you can make a simple original card or Christmas decoration using bubble wrap? We believe that you must have some foil at home during the gift-gathering season, so let's use it together!







Prepare paper to use as a background for your card or picture. You will also need bubble wrap, scissors, a paintbrush, tempera or watercolour paints and possibly markers for touch-ups. Even young children can easily create a tree.

MAKE A GREETING CARD OR ORIGINAL DECORATION




To make a card or Christmas decoration, you first need paper (we recommend harder paper so that the colours don't get through) and bubble wrap from which you cut out a longer triangle in the shape of a tree.


Brush and shades of green tempera.

Don't be afraid to play around with the different shades of green when creating your Christmas tree using bubble wrap to achieve an interesting result.

Brush different shades of green onto the cut foil and immediately imprint it onto the paper.

The printed tree is then ready for further finishing.





You can try different techniques, for example, paint small decorative balls or even a whole range of gifts. Another option is to cut out other shapes from the foil and create a whole piece using just foil and paint. Will you choose an original card or display the tree on a shelf? It's up to you!

This is such a clever and simple idea! Using bubble wrap for a Christmas tree must give it a lovely textured look, and it's great that even young kids can join in. I'll have to save some wrapping bubbles for this craft.
