Fall is the perfect season for cozy crafting with kids, and this Toilet Paper Roll Fall Tree Craft is a wonderful way to celebrate the beauty of autumn. With our free PDF printable template, children can create their own colorful fall tree in two different ways — either by coloring the template themselves or by using it as a guide to cut pieces from colored paper. Both methods are fun, creative, and help little ones practice important skills.

Option 1: Fall Tree Using the Coloring Template
Print the free template on white cardstock.


Color the tree trunk, crown, and leaves with colored pencils, markers, or paints.


For extra durability, glue the crown onto a piece of cardboard before cutting it out.
Carefully cut out all the parts of the tree.


Wrap the rectangular trunk piece around a toilet paper roll and secure it with glue.


Make two small slits at the top of the toilet paper roll, one on each side.

Insert the crown piece into the slits.

Glue the colored and cut-out autumn leaves onto the crown.


Your bright and festive fall tree is ready to display!

Option 2: Fall Tree Using the Cutting Template
Print the template on white paper.


Color the autumn leaves included in the template.

Cut out all the details.
Use the template pieces as stencils:
Cut the trunk rectangle from brown paper.
Cut the tree crown from yellow, orange, or red cardstock.


Wrap the brown rectangle around a toilet paper roll and glue it in place.


Make two small cuts at the top of the roll.

Insert the crown into the cuts.

Glue the previously colored leaves onto the crown.



(Optional) Use a black marker to add bark texture and a hollow to the tree trunk.

Now you have a vibrant fall tree full of colorful leaves!
