Description

Six little wooden trees, a tin of colourful embroidery thread, and an afternoon to fill. Your child picks a colour, winds it round and round the tree until it’s wrapped just how they like, then ties it off — no needle, no sewing, no fiddly bits. Each tree comes hand printed with a coloured star and a cotton cord already attached, so the moment they’re done, it’s ready to hang.

Six trees means enough to go round: one each for a table of cousins, a set for the family tree, or a few made into little handmade gifts for teachers and grandparents. The winding is calm, repetitive work — the sort that quietly holds a child’s attention — and the whole lot packs back into a reusable tin, plastic-free right through, ready to come out again next December.

Why we love the Cotton Twist Thread Through Trees Kit:

  • Makes Six Decorations: Six pre-cut wooden trees, each hand printed with a star and finished with a cotton hanging cord, ready for the tree.
  • No Sewing, No Needles: A simple wind-and-tie technique, so beginners can manage it happily without a stitch in sight.
  • A Tin to Keep and Reuse: Everything packs into a sturdy branded tin, lovely for storing treasures once the crafting’s done.
  • Plastic-Free Christmas Crafting: Wood, thread, and card only — nothing plastic in the contents or the packaging.

What’s included in the kit?Six pre-cut wooden tree shapes, each hand printed with a coloured star and fitted with a cotton hanging cord, plus a selection of embroidery threads, all in a reusable tin.

Is this a good craft to do together?It’s a lovely one for a group. With six trees in the tin, siblings, cousins, or a few friends can each wrap their own and compare colours — or one child can work through them slowly over several evenings in the run-up to Christmas.
