Have fun putting the Crystals on the Tree wherever you like them. First put a dot of glue on the branch then the Crystal on top of the dot. Dry thoroughly.
-
To make the “present” at the bottom of the Tree, screw the two scrap wood pieces together. Wrap them like a “present”, adding ribbon and a bow. Pre-drill holes on the back of the tree and attach to the “present” with screws.
-
Attach the star to the top of the tree by drilling two small holes. Thread the wire through the holes and the star, twisting the wire together on the back.
-
Screw cup hooks on the bottom of the branches and hang the ornaments.
