Upcycled Red Truck and Green Volkswagen Christmas Tree Ornaments

The longest title for the simplest project!

I have been making these for about four years now. They are always good sellers

at the Craft Shows. The only items you will need can be found at the Dollar Tree.

Not to worry, they have these cars year round and the red Truck and green

 Volkswagen are always available.

You will find these Maistra cars in the toy department.

You will need a small tree. These are available at the Dollar Tree, or

any craft store. Hot glue gun and glue, about 12'' of Baker's Twine.

Baker's Twine can also be found at the Dollar Tree.

Remove the base of tree.

Use pliers to curl under the wire "trunk" so it has no sharp ends.

Hot glue tree to top of car.

Tie around the car and tree.

Add  a little bit of Tacky glue to the windshield, bumpers and tree.

 Then sprinkle a bit of glitter for snow.

OOPS! Looks like I need some more!

If you are not a glitter lover,

you can add  small dabs of white paint to look like snow.



The kids can play with these no problem!

Let them race around on the floor.

You can use as tree ornaments or set out as décor.

Do your kids love to play look for a Volkswagen?

We always did.

 

I don't think I will ever get tired of the little Red Truck!

Enjoy!

 -Merry Christmas-
