DIY Tinsel Tree

Tinsel is one of those slightly kitschy, throwback Christmas items that I can’t help but love. And this is the perfect use for it! Glittery, glitzy and fun.
Things you’ll need:
Tinsel garland
Fiberboard doll cone
Hot glue and glue gun
Things to do:
1. Squeeze a generous dollop of glue on a spot near the bottom edge of the tree for and press the end of the tinsel firmly into the glue.
2. Continue to add dots of glue every inch along the bottom edge of the tree, pressing the tinsel in as you go.
3. Once you have made it all the way around the bottom, continue to add dots of glue and wrap, pushing the tinsel down to the previous layer so that there are no gaps.
4. Continue to glue and wrap until you have covered the whole tree.
