Are you looking for a fun and unique craft idea this Fall? Well this Pencil Shaving Autumn Tree craft is just that!

It’s super easy to set up, doesn’t require a long list of materials and best of all, it’s so exciting to work with unique materials!

You’ll need:

• Colored pencils (all the Fall hues like yellows, reds, oranges, browns)
• Pencil sharpener
• White cardstock
• Glue stick (you can also use liquid school glue)
• Brown crayon/colored pencil/marker for the tree trunk

Step one:

First start by sharpening all of the colored pencils and collecting the pencil shavings into a bowl or cup.

Step two:

Once you have enough pencil shavings, draw a tree trunk using a brown crayon on the white card stock. You can use a brown colored pencil or even a marker.

Step three:

Now is time to glue the pencil shavings! Carefully pick up the pencil shaving as they’re quite easy to break, place a little bit of glue above the drawn tree trunk and glue on the shavings.

How cool does this Autumn tree look? Try this super fun craft idea with your kids!
