1. Make a cone out of cardboard and glue it with a gun to secure it.
2. Cut the foam into strips 1.5 cm wide.
3. Make a fringe from the strips, not approaching the edge more than 5 mm.
4. Heat the resulting fringe with an iron or hairdryer to give the ends a rounded shape.
5. Glue the edge of the strip to the cone in a spiral from top to bottom.
6. Point the ends of the fringe upward.
7. Decorate the tree with beads, glitter or other decorations of your choice.

The finished product can be given to friends, handed over to a kindergarten, or to decorate your desktop.
