I got my tree for $19.99 at a discount store. Wal-Mart also had some for around the same amount. I guess you could make one out of construction paper. Or just forgo the tree and get some inexpensive decorations at the dollar store. I am on a budget too and that is where most of my decorations came from. They are not bad for the price; Christmas goes so fast anyway to spend so much money.

Supplies needed: Green construction paper
Crayons, markers, glitter glue, or tempera paint
Scissors
Clear tape
Optional: Other colors of construction paper, glue, hole punch, stickers
Fold a piece of green construction paper in half, then cut it in half.
Put the two pieces together, and fold them in half again.
Draw half a Christmas tree opposite the fold.
Cut along the line - you should get two identical trees.
Fold the trees in half, just barely creasing the center line (this is to mark the center of the tree
Cut a slit along the bottom half of the center of one tree and along the top half of the center of the other tree
Slip the two trees together along the slits.
Using clear tape, tape the bottoms and tops together (pieces of tape on the bottom and at the top make the tree stand up well and stop the slit ends from flopping over).
Decorate your tree with crayons, markers, glitter glue, or tempera paint. Or you can glue on tiny construction paper decorations or use star stickers. You can cut out tiny paper balls using a hole punch.
Now you have a really nice 3-dimensional Christmas decoration.
Optional: cut out a small construction paper star and cut a tiny slit in it. Put the star on the top of the tree (and secure it with some tape).

my grandma made one about 20 years ago that we have all copied. she took a piece of cardboard and cut a circle with about 2 feet diameter. grandpa was always a fishers man so he had plenty of fishing string. she took a paper towel cardboard center and poked little holes at the top of the roll, she strung the sting through these and fastened it to the center of the circlar cardboard. then she went and wrapped garland and lights around the cardboard roll. plugged it in and it made a christmas tree.
