DIY Stick Trees

I love these DIY Stick Trees that are out in stores right now, keeping with making this years Christmas decor I decided to make some of my own for the mantel in my office.

Supplies you will need are:

*Craft sticks (two different kinds see photo)
*Hot glue
*Styrofoam trees
*Blocks of wood for the tree trunk

DIY Stick Trees

 

Step 1: If you are using multiple blocks of wood hot glue them together.

Continue working in rows, remembering to overlap the last row.  Use the smaller shim pieces to fill in the gaps!

I wanted my trees to look a little more rustic so I ended up staining my trees in a pine stain.
