Christmas Train: The Train That Brings Magic to Life Under the Tree
Under the Christmas tree, the garlands twinkle, the golden baubles reflect in the windows, and far below, a little red and yellow train seems ready to begin its gift-giving journey. As you assemble this 3D papercraft, carriage by carriage, the shapes take form: the engine rises, the chimney stands tall, and the carriage prepares to hold sweets, small decorations, or figurines.
Once placed under the tree, the train becomes the focal point of the entire display: it’s used to place presents around it, it’s featured in photos, and children invent stories around it. Its simple lines, bright colors, and slightly retro style are reminiscent of old-fashioned wooden toys, while maintaining the low-poly aesthetic of 3D papercraft.

- It’s easy to assemble: a perfect project to do as a family before Christmas.
