Notes
If possible try not to pour too much paint out onto your tree as this means it's more likely to escape from your folded paper and make a mess. The video for this craft was my first attempt and as you'll see a load of paint spilled out! By my second attempt both mine and my daughters paintings were a lot more controlled so if you know that you have a certain paint pot that's normally a bit of a pain to get paint out of then on this occasion that might want to be the one you go for.
