Start the christmas tree by forming the trunk. that's the folded in half piece on the left. Then make a little x with two small pieces of pipe cleaner.

Now twist that folded over one so it looks like this.

Now fold that X you made rigtht into the top of the tree.

Make another X just a little bit larger than the first one. And crimp that one to the tree just below the first one. You will continue this process all the way down the tree. Making each consecutive one just a little larger than the previous one.

And to get that tree looking nice and full you can double up those stars. It will fill out the tree nicely.

Once you get down near the bottom of the tree you can shape those two loose legs into hoops that act as a stand.

Now you can brush on a little glue or mod-podge and then you can attach all kinds of fun little things like gems and jewels.

And don't forget the glitter.

Your Tree is done. Yay!
