When there isn’t enough room in the house, we have to get creative in order to fit all the holiday decorations we want to hang up. Without a doubt, the Christmas tree is the star and the one that takes up the most room. Therefore, choosing miniature Christmas trees like the one we are presenting here or smaller original Christmas trees that are made of fabric and can be hung on a wall is a smart choice.
Although the activity is pretty straightforward and inexpensive, you will need specialized supplies that you probably don’t already have at home. However, don’t panic; these items are relatively inexpensive and simple to locate.
Do you dare to do this? It may also be a lovely opportunity to spend time with the family and give the kids a sense of ownership over the Christmas decorations for the home. And as we frequently mention, using our hands for activities other than typing on a computer or sliding the screens of our smartphones and tablets is a good therapy to relieve stress from work and oxygenate the brain, which fosters creativity.
If you haven’t already, get into the holiday mood by decorating your home with inexpensive yet lovely accents like these little Christmas trees.
STEP 1
You need a dried flower sponge as a foundation. You will need to cut and mold it into a cone shape because it is sold in blocks.
STEP 2
On the other hand, you require natural moss in step two. Purchase it well in advance and allow drying time.
STEP 3
You don’t need to damp preserved moss before using it.
Step 4
Moss-line the cone. Going down gradually, start at the top and cover the tip. It’s not necessary to cover the entire cone with a single piece of moss or to use very large moss plates.
STEP 5
Use bow clips to bind the moss so that it won’t fall apart. This will keep it in place. Additionally, you can create your own hairpins with green garden wire.
STEP 6
Pin it down with as many bobby pins as needed to ensure that all of the moss is securely fastened.
STEP 7
The star belongs at the top of every tree, so we’ll do it next. The ornament must have a skewer or wire so that we can attach it to our tree.
STEP 8
Creating the basis for our tree will be the final step. You can make use of a log or piece of wood.
STEP 9
Use silicone to attach it to the base, and if desired, decorate it with pineapple.
FINISHED
You may now decorate yourself for Christmas so that you resemble a tree. Simply spray it with lacquer to make it durable for a long time.
