CALLING ALL CRAFTERS Here is your chance to create something wonderful for the holiday season! This is a printable tutorial that provides everything you need (short of supplies and tools) for making a beautiful table-top Christmas tree decoration. The tree that you will make is an illuminated Christmas tree that is 13 inches tall and is made with plastic faceted beads, safety pins and wire. The top is adorned with a translucent star, and a battery-operated portable LED light illuminates the tree from within. Because of its cordless design, you are not limited to the space that you can place it. Use it as a centerpiece on your table, a decoration on your fireplace mantle, or a conversation piece on the counter or a shelf. Decorate your RV or office with it. Give it to your college student for their dorm room or apartment, or to a teacher for their classroom. Cheer up a sick friend or relative in their hospital room. As you can see, the possibilities are endless! This downloadable 20-page tutorial features: ** an illustrated step-by-step detailed instructions for every step of the way ** an illustrated supply list and a list of stores to purchase supplies ** a list of required tools ** important things to remember before, during and after making the tree ** diagrams, tips and tricks, and "STOP and LOOK" sections to help you ** a bonus section on how to make your own tree topper IMPORTANT PLEASE NOTE: This is a digital download.

MORE ABOUT THIS TUTORIAL: This tutorial has been field-tested in the past year by several crafters. As they put the tutorial "through the paces," they provided thoughtful feedback that has resulted in complete and clear instructions. MORE ABOUT THE TREES: I have spent the last year making (and un-making) over 100 trees in order to perfect the design and structure of this tree. This tree is solid (not "squishy") and is perfectly symmetrical. It can be customized by changing the colors of the beads! It will make a beautiful decoration for your desired location, and it is a gift you can be proud to give!
