Pennsylvanua German Wooly Pine Tree
this is my second wooly pine tree and it came out much better than the first proto type
Easy instruction to follow
This is how to cut the 1.5" wide strip of woven wool to create a "fringe" with about 1/4" cuts
making sure to stop the cutting by leaving about 3/8" of a "band" uncut
This is where the variegated branches will be attached
The length of the wires I used were 4,5", 5", 5.5", 6", 6.5",7"
remember to start with a slightly longer wire/branch for the top of your tree
The bottom of your dowel should be placed securely into a drilled hole using preferably a sold wood piece which can be found at Michaels Art supply stores
A Wooley Pine Tree Kit can be ordered from
