Twine Wrapped Christmas Trees

Crafts

27 Jul

It is Christmas in July and this week I am sharing some fun DIY projects. One of my favorites are these Twine Wrapped Christmas Trees.

Many years ago, I learn that it is best to get a head start on Christmas. I love crafts around the holidays. With our busy schedules of family, shopping, baking, and gift wrapping, we tend to run out of time. It is why I like to do my some projects in the summer.

This project is fun and easy!

The best part of the project, it takes very little time to complete.

DIY TWINE WRAPPED CHRISTMAS Trees Tutorial

1. Twine tree using two different color jute

DIY Twine Trees

Start by adding some tacky glue down one side and begin wrapping the twine around the cone. Be sure to keep it tight.

Continue wrapping the twine around the cone working the twine tight against each of the rows.

Once you have reach 1/4 of the way down, cut the twine and add glue to hold the tail of the twine down.

Begin working the brown twine until you reach the bottom of the cone.

Finish the top off by adding tacky glue to the top. Wrap the cream twine around the center of the top pushing it into the glue. Trim the extra twine.

Add some hot glue or tacky glue around the rim of the candle stick holder. Add the cone on top of it. Try to make sure you center the candle stick holder under the cone. You do not want it to topple over.

The fun part is adding some embellishments. I kept this tree very simple. Sweet pom-pom trim was added around the bottom of the cone.

Hot Glue to the jewel topper and push it down on top of the cone. You will need to hold the tree topper for a few minutes. The glue will cool and the tree topper will stand by itself.

I love the two tone look of this Twine Christmas Tree. Remember you can substitute yarn lieu of jute for another beautiful DIY Tabletop Christmas Tree idea.

2. Twine Tabletop Christmas Tree

Here is another variation for this DIY twine tree project. It is using one color of jute.

Just like in the first DIY project, you will add some tacky glue down one side and begin wrapping the twine around the cone. Continue wrapping the twine around the cone working the twine tight against each of the rows. Continue wrapping the cream twine all the way to the bottom of the cone.

Jute Twine Christmas Tree

You can use miniature jingle bells, rhinestones or pearls as embellishments to your tree. Here I am using mini jingle bells.

For the tree topper, you can use anything from jeweled buttons, vintage brooches, vintage earring, star, a pom-pom or medium size jingle bell..

Hot Glue to the jewel topper and push it down on top of the cone. You will need to hold the tree topper for a few minutes. The glue will cool and the tree topper will stand by itself.

Silver decorative trim was added around the bottom of the cone with tacky glue.

    I am obsessed in the best possible way with all the Christmas decor and projects you’ve been making this season. They’re totally fabulous! I would have never thought to put these beautiful trees on glass candlesticks, it’s such an elegant touch. Can’t wait to see what else you have in store for us. I love everything you’ve done so far! Hugs, CoCo
