Cutting through the cardboard would have been too difficult for my 6 and 3 year olds, but the girls had fun painting and decorating their trees. And when the holidays are a memory, I'll send the trees along with the recycling truck. Step 4 : Paint one side of each tree and allow to dry. I helped quite a bit with this project.

These Nail Polish Marbled Flower Pots are a super cute craft that your kids can create (with your help) to give as gifts for Mother’s Day, other holidays or teachers. At first, I was little skeptical when I saw that nail polish was the paint. The rack is now used for painting projects. But this craft is so cool to create.
