I love the look of these trees. I work at a retirement home and think this project could be a fun idea to make with the seniors in December. Thank you for sharing this craft.

I have always wanted to try origami but never got around to it. These trees are really cute. This would be a fun craft to do with the kids. I know card stock paper is thicker, but do you think regular paper would be just as good for this project?
