Christmas Trees Trace your hand 6 times on green construction paper.   Cut out the hand shapes and paste them on another piece of paper in the following manner--     Start with the 3 on the bottom,   Paste the middle ones so that they overlap the bottom ones.   Have the top one overlap the middle ones.   Trim with stickers, glitter, paper cutouts, small snowflakes, etc.

Reindeer   Trace your foot (inside your shoe!) on light brown or white construction paper. Cut out. Trace around both hands on dark brown, green or red construction paper and cut out (or trace the same hand twice and reverse one of the cut outs).   Here's how your deer will be assembled. The hands go behind the shoe part.     Use a pom-pom nose and wiggle eyes or cut out a contrasting color nose and make eyes from white paper with black pupils.   Punch a hole in the top of the head between the horns. Cut a piece of Christmas ribbon 12" long and form a hanging loop by tying an over-hand knot in the ends of the ribbon.   Hang on your Christmas tree. Make a new reindeer each year to see how much you have grown.

Angel or Fairy   From construction paper, cut a triangle about 4" wide and 5" tall for the dress and circle about 2" across for the head.   Color eyes and mouth on the circle for the angel's face. Glue the circle to the top of the triangle. Glue cut paper or curly Christmas ribbon for the angel's hair.   Make the angel's wings by tracing both hands on white or light blue paper and cutting them out. (Or trace one hand and reverse one of the cut outs.)     Trim your angel by gluing stickers, pieces of lace or glitter on herwings and dress
