Beat the Rush: Why You Should Order Your Christmas Tree Before Black Friday (+ 3 Easy Holiday Crafts for Kids!)
Share
The holiday season is right around the corner, and while it’s the most wonderful time of the year, it can also quickly become the most hectic. Between hunting for holiday gifts, planning dinners, and keeping a house full of energetic kids entertained, the to-do list builds up fast.
One of the biggest elements of holiday magic is setting up a fresh, fragrant Christmas tree. But fighting traffic, standing in freezing lines, and scratching the roof of your car trying to tie down a heavy tree? Not so magical.
That is why the smartest holiday planners are skipping the chaos entirely this year and taking advantage of our Pre-Black Friday Booking Window at Holly Jolly Christmas Tree Delivery. Here is how you can lock in a stress-free tree experience and use that extra time to make special holiday memories with your little elves.

Keeping the Little Elves Busy: 3 Easy Holiday Crafts for Kids
With your tree delivery locked in and the heavy lifting taken care of, you have more time to focus on what matters most: spending time together as a family.
If you are looking for simple ways to channel all that holiday excitement into fun, low-prep projects, here are three festive crafts perfect for kids of all ages.
1. Sparkling Pinecone Christmas Trees
This low-mess, high-fun activity lets kids make a mini version of your family's tree.
- What you need: Clean pinecones, green and white acrylic craft paint, small colorful pom-poms or plastic beads, a yellow paper star, and non-toxic school glue.
- How to make it: Have your kids paint the tips of the pinecone white to look like fresh snow or a solid, vibrant festive green. Once the paint is dry, use small dabs of glue to place colorful pom-poms or beads between the scales as ornaments. Finish it off by gluing a small yellow star right to the top apex!
2. Classic Fan-Fold Paper Chains
A fantastic way to practice fine motor skills while making vibrant decorations for the playroom or mantle.
- What you need: Red, green, and white construction paper, scissors, and a glue stick or stapler.
- How to make it: Cut the paper into even strips about one inch wide and six inches long. Show your children how to loop the first strip into a circle and secure the ends with a glue stick. Thread the next strip through the center of the first loop before gluing its ends together, and keep repeating to create a beautiful, endless holiday chain to hang across the room.
Perfect for younger toddlers and older siblings alike to show off their creativity.
- What you need: Paper plates, green tissue paper or green paint, buttons, ribbon, and glue.
- How to make it: Carefully cut out the inner circle of a paper plate to create a sturdy ring base. Let your kids paint the ring green or glue down crinkled squares of green tissue paper to give it a leafy, textured look. They can then glue colorful buttons or sequins around the wreath to look like holly berries, finishing it off with a large red ribbon bow at the top.
