How I Built these DIY Wooden Christmas Trees

Here is a quick video tutorial of how I built these wooden Christmas tree decorations –

I cut all of my pieces according to the cut list and then sanded each piece before assembly.

You will want to clamp the top of the tree and make sure you are shooting the nails in at the correct angle.

For each section added to the top there is a 1/2″ overlap, so I used my multi marking tool and set it to a half inch.

I lined up the next piece with my mark, added glue and attached using brad nails.

Flip and repeat. For the bottom tree section, I used a 1x spacer to hold it up and in place to attach the nails.

Finally, glue and nail the bottom section and it’s time to finish! I decided to use spray paint on some and others I used stain. I love the stained “trunk” as an added accent!
