      You need to take construction or craft paper in the desired color, in this case, it is brown, and cut it in the shape of a tree trunk. You can take the help of a template if you want. Now cut out narrow curved strips for the branches and glue them properly on top of the trunk. They represent the branches. Complete with paper cut outs of fall leaves in orange, yellow and green glued all over the branches. You will find fall leaf templates to be useful here.
