Top Tip
Make sure the brown paint has fully dried before adding the leaves to prevent smudges.
How to Make



- Start by using brown paint to create a tree trunk, then add branches onto the canvas and leave to dry.
- Cut the bubble wrap into four small squares.
- In the paint tray, mix red and yellow paint to create an orange shade. Once the colour is ready, dip your paintbrush into the orange paint and apply it evenly onto the textured (bumpy) side of a bubble wrap square.
- Press the painted side of the bubble wrap gently onto the tip of one of the tree branches on the canvas to create a textured leaf effect. Repeat this process a few more times, spacing the prints around the other branches to fill the tree. Finally, add a few prints along the bottom of the canvas to represent fallen leaves on the ground.
- Repeat the previous steps with red, yellow and green paint until the tree is full of leaves. Let the canvas dry.
