There are a lot of ways you can decorate a cone shape to turn it into a Christmas tree. And many of those ideas can be achieved using items that all came from the dollar store! To show how versatile the cone-turned-tree project can be, Jocie from The Better Half made a whole set of them. She made the whole collection with a just a few dollars worth of materials, coming in at an average of under two bucks per tree, or less if you have some of the materials already on hand!
