Are you looking to add a touch of creativity to your Christmas decorations this year? Crafting your own Christmas crib mountains can be an enjoyable and rewarding project. In this blog post, we will guide you step-by-step on how to make paper mountains for your nativity scenes.

Materials You Will Need

  • Cardstock or heavy-duty paper
  • Scissors
  • Glue or adhesive
  • Ruler
  • Pencil
  • Paints or markers (optional)

Step 1: Designing Your Mountains

Start by sketching the design of your mountains on the cardstock using a pencil. This step allows you to create mountains with unique shapes and sizes. Feel free to get creative and think outside the box!

Step 2: Cutting Out the Mountains

Using your scissors, carefully cut along the outlines of the mountains you sketched. Take your time and try to keep the edges as smooth as possible for a clean, professional look.

Step 3: Folding the Mountains

To create a three-dimensional effect, fold the cardstock mountains along the lines where you want them to appear more raised. Use a ruler to make precise folds, giving your mountains a realistic shape and texture.

Step 4: Assembling the Mountains

Apply some glue or adhesive to the folded parts of the mountains and carefully stick them together. Make sure to align the edges properly to maintain a seamless appearance.

Step 5: Painting or Decorating (optional)

If you desire a more colorful and vibrant look for your mountains, now is the time to use paints or markers. Experiment with different shades and textures to achieve the desired effect. Allow the paint to dry completely before moving on to the next step.

Step 6: Placing Your Paper Mountains in the Nativity Scene

Now that your paper mountains are complete, position them strategically in your nativity scene. Arrange them in the background to create depth and a beautiful backdrop for the figurines.

Crafting paper mountains for your nativity scenes is a wonderful way to add a personal touch to your Christmas decorations. It’s a fun project that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So, unleash your creativity and have a festive and joyful holiday season!
