This craft is easy to do and fun to make. Keep those little ones busy making these easy decorations for their tree. This project is rated VERY EASY to do. What You Need Old magazines Scissors Paper plate, cardboard, wood circle, plastic/play plates Silver or Gold string Glue How To Make It Cut out pictures of collector's plates found in many magazines. Glue these to: paper plate, cardboard, small lightweight wood circle, plastic/play plates cut to the size of the picture. Glue on a silver or gold looped string for a hanger. Tips Tacky Glue is better for crafts than hot glue, which boys can easily get hurt using; it's thicker and tackier than Elmer's Glue and dries quickly.

I think hanging plates could pull the tree over. I like paste better than hot glue for childs crafts
