How to Draw an Easy Christmas Tree

1. Begin your cartoon Christmas tree outline by drawing the star on top of it. Use straight lines to craft the five-pointed star.

2. Next, extend two straight lines in an inverted “V” shape below the star. This forms the top of the tree.

3. Use three connected, curved lines to attach one side of the “V” to the other. This indicates the edges of the tree’s boughs or branches.

4. From the top segment of the tree, extend two straight lines. Then draw a short curved line at the end of each.

5. Finish connecting the sides of the tree using a series of curved lines in a scalloped pattern. Then, extend two straight lines below this segment of the tree. Draw a curved line at the end of each straight line.

6. Use a series of curved lines to finish the scalloped pattern on this segment of the tree. Below them, extend two straight lines, and connect them with a curved line. This is the trunk of the pine tree.

7. Next, decorate the tree. Drape a pair of parallel curved lines across each segment of the tree. These represent ribbons or tinsel.

8. Draw circular ornaments on the tree. Then draw a “J” shape intersecting one of the ribbons. This is a candy cane.

9. Erase lines from the candy cane as needed. Fill in the rest of the tree with round ornaments of different sizes.

Your easy cartoon Christmas tree outline is now complete. Color the decorations. Red and green are common Christmas colors, as is blue on a white tree. But many families use an amalgamation of ornaments featuring every color of the rainbow.
