How to Make Christmas Tree Card Holder

Step 1. Create tree shape with twine

Take your length of twine and start taping off a Christmas tree design on your wall with painter’s tape. You can adjust it by moving the tape around until you have the look you want. You can make the tree as little or as big as you want, just leave plenty of room between each row for cards to hang.

Step 2: Add 3M Command Decorating Clips

Leave the top piece of tape on your tree as is. Start with the piece of tape on the second level of the tree and replace it with a decorating clip. To do so, you first add an adhesive strip like this:

Step 3: Thread twine through hooks

Remove the backing from the strip and press the clip onto it for 30 seconds or so. Then thread the twine through the hook. You’ll want the twine to be taut as the cards will put it down some. Repeat this process for the remaining pieces of tape.

Step 4: Add a paper star and ornaments

To finish the tree, cut a star out of card stock and tape it over the top piece of tape on your tree. Trim the end of the twine at the bottom of the tree by tying a knot around the decorating clip and trimming. You can then start to add a few ornaments and cards using the mini clothespins!

I put a sparkly ornament on each point of the tree, hanging it from the decorating clip. I scattered a few soft snowflake ornaments among the cards on the tree. So simple!
