Decorating Hybrid Style

Posted: December 1st, 2008 under Altered Mondays.

Last year I took a picture of a Christmas Tree I saw on display at Starbuck’s.  I never got around to making one last year, but I finally got around to making one this year.

Supplies:

Styrofoam Tree (I got a package of 2 at Joann’s)

3 sheets of printed digital paper (I used And To All A Good Night)

Low Heat Glue Gun

Small Terracotta Pot or  Bucket

Step 1

Cut the paper into 1.5″ x 11.5″ inch strips.  Then cut those strips into 3/4″ pieces.  You will need a few strips cut up.

Step 2

Slightly curl the strips around your finger.  Use the low heat glue gun to attach the strips to the styrofoam in row alternating patterns.

Step 3

Continue making rows until you reach the top of the styrofoam.  You can then attach a printed out star or other element as a tree topper.  I didn’t add anything to mine as you can see.

Step 4

Turn the pot or bucket upside down.  Use some glue dots on the bottom of the styrofoam to attach to the pot or bucket.
