How to make a miniature Christmas tree from cuttings.

by on Nov 20, 2007

For the holidays, a Christmas tree.

Want a Christmas tree for the holidays but don’t have the room? Or maybe your budget is a little tight? Here’s a great way to make a tiny Christmas tree from evergreen trimmings, which you can get for FREE at just about any Christmas tree lot, if you ask the attendants nicely. Other things you’ll need include:

  • A 4-inch clay pot
  • Plaster of Paris
  • Oasis Floral Foam
  • Aluminum Foil
  • Garden Shears
  • Miniature Christmas Tree Oranaments
  • And a bamboo pole

The clay pot, bamboo pole (I’d probably scrounge up a bit of doweling), even the plaster of Paris isn’t terribly expensive. AND you can reused the pot/dowel/plaster structure next year!! Sweet! Via eHow.
