The mini Christmas tree takes up almost no space. It is no larger than a pencil cup. It will fit next to the keyboard, creating a special mood in your work area.
Materials:
• a plastic cup;
• rigid wire – 18 cm;
• scotch:
• Styrofoam;
• gift ribbon – 50 cm;
• green rain - 30 cm;
• scissors.
Sequence of making a mini Christmas tree:
1. Using scissors, cut the cup in half lengthwise. We will not need the upper part, so it can be cut for ease of work.
2. We need a piece of polystyrene foam the size of a walnut.
3.Glue it to the bottom of the cup with tape. If your office has a glue that is strong enough, you can use it.
4. We wrap the rain on the wire. On one side we hide the tip completely, on the other we leave it two centimeters open.
5.Twist the wire into an expanding spiral.In this case, the closed tip should be near the narrow part.
6. We stick the open edge of the wire into the foam.
7.Form the shape of a Christmas tree.
8. We tie small bows from gift ribbon and use them to decorate the Christmas tree.
The mini Christmas tree for the office is ready!
If you make it a little larger and decorate it with bright plastic toys, it will perfectly decorate the reception area, waiting room or rest room. To make such a Christmas tree stable, use a regular pot as a base.
