A folded Christmas Tree made from Vivi Gade Design Paper
#v13247
The Christmas tree is made by folding sheets of Vivi Gade Design Paper (the Oslo series) into triangles – a sheet at a time. Double-sided adhesive tape is used for assembling each triangle to make a tree.

How to do it
1. Fold each sheet diagonally. You will need 16 sheets for the Christmas tree!
2. From the right, fold down towards the fold in the middle.
3. Fold the pointed triangle from the left to the right (over the just-folded point in paragraph 2) and insert the point inside this fold.
4. Attach double-sided adhesive tape along the edge – opposite the fold.
5. Place a new triangle on the double-sided adhesive tape, which is the “tree trunk”.
6. Continue this process described above until all 16 triangles are assembled.
A TIP! Place the triangles on top of each other very accurately. Now remove the top layer of the double-sided self-adhesive tape. This is how you do it: Slightly lift the top triangle whilst at the same time removing the top layer of the double-sided adhesive tape little by little.
Another variant Attach triangle No. 1 and No. 16 to each other at the end, thus making the tree appear round.
