Step 1: Select the materials for your christmas tree
You will need the following items:
- Wooden planks
- Painting Chalk Paint
- Metallic Paint
- Brushes
- Pencil
- Ruler
- Grinder (optional)
- Templates with Christmas designs (or you can draw them yourself)
Step 2: Wood Preparation
Start by choosing the wood that will be the base of your tree. You can opt for recycled boards for a rustic touch or smooth woods for a more modern look. The choice is yours!
Help yourself with a ruler and pencil to take measurements of your tree. Using a grinder, cut the different triangles to create trees of different sizes that, at the same time, generate an optical effect. If you are not very confident using a grinder, don't worry, in any bazaar you will find shaped wooden planks.
Step 3: Let's paint our homemade Christmas tree!
Before you start painting, make sure the wood is clean and free of splinters. Gently sand the surface to achieve a smoother, more uniform finish, if necessary.
Choose your favorite colors Chalk Paint to paint your Christmas tree. You can opt for traditional hues like green and red, or go bolder with unique color combinations like ice green . Don't be afraid to experiment!
Step 4: Design Christmas Decorations
Once the paint is dry, draw special details with pencil. Use templates to create festive designs, and here comes the fun! Add Christmas decorations such as small balls, shiny ribbons or even small themed ornaments. Let your imagination fly!
Once the figure is traced on the wood of your tree, use the paints to decorate the Christmas designs, you can use Metallic Paint to give a touch of shine to your decoration.
Step 5: Assemble and decorate your tree!
Join the pieces of wood so that they form the silhouette of a tree. You can nail them or attach them with strong glue. Now, it's time to decorate your tree with lights, balls, and all the special decorations you have chosen. Place your painted wooden tree in a prominent location in your home and admire your Christmas masterpiece. We guarantee it will be the center of attention this holiday season!
