This free pattern is for a Christmas Tree Tissue Box Cover for the Holiday Season. This pattern is made using single and double crochet stitches as well as sparkle yarn to make it shimmer like lights.
Ok, I’m officially obsessed! I love crocheting tissue box covers. They are so much prettier than traditional store-bought tissue boxes. Plus they also make great yarn storage containers as well as “trash cans” for used tissues and yarn scraps.
If you have never tried making a tissue box cover, I sure hope this will be the first one you try. It’s fun and fairly easy to crochet, even for a beginner.
Using only basic crochet stitches and 4 rounds that repeat themselves, you can easily make this tree bigger or smaller. In fact, you can even use the Christmas Tree for another decor, not sure for tissue boxes. Maybe even as a hat?

Fasten off and weave in your ends
Now insert the tissue box inside the tree to make it easier to add the poms and star.
Crochet Star
R1: make a magic ring (or ch 2), and add 10 sc, sl st
R2: *ch 6, from the 2nd ch from the hook, 1 sc, 1 hdc, 1 hdc, 1 dc, 1 tr, now sk 1 st, from where the ch starts, sl st, in the next st repeat from * 4 more times
Fasten off and weave in your ends.
Now glue the star to the top of the tree.
Adding the Ornaments to the Christmas Tree
Finally glue the poms to the tree all around however you like.
Although I used sparkling yarn, you can also add a light string (real or fake) around as well.
Finally add your tissue box from the bottom into Christmas Tree.
