I can remember making trees like these with my grandmother - we used magazines the size of Readers Digest or National Geographic!

Thanks for the memories!

Yes, and we spray painted ours and decorated with buttons, yarn, whatever we kids could find!

I also remember making those tree's in Girl Scouts, then Spray painting them green. What nice memory.

I made these in elementary school and somehow painted it. Please show us when you decorate it

A real walk down memory lane. We made those too. I think we sprayed them gold.

I remember these from years back. They are clever and a fun craft for the young ones.

Yes I remember these too!

We made these as well. I like the height you get using newspaper instead of a smaller book. We did our out of Readers Digest magazines and painted (spray) gold. Kids helped make them for their grandparents. Thanks for the memories.
