It is required:
- foam base or thick paper for it;
- adhesive tape;
- adhesive;
- bumps;
- dried lemons, cut into circles;
- decoration;
- wire.

2. First of all, we paste the base with lemon circles starting from the bottom.
3. Next we add cones to the gaps between them. Also put on the glue.
4. Now you can decorate. At us already ready small "bouquets" from artificial branches of a pine with a snowball and red berries, but you can decorate how you deem it necessary.
5. We can make a star from wire according to a pattern that is easy to repeat at home.
6. We adorn the top with a star.
Another version of the design of the spruce, we see in the photo:
Here already the base is surrounded by twine spirally, is glued, and small knobs act on a par with the ornaments-bouquets, as if entering the composition. The crown is also decorated with a wire star.
Variant without the base
You can make a beautiful herringbone without a foundation. You will need:
- pine cones;
- Christmas tree tinsel;
- scissors;
- hot glue.
1. Cones stick together to each other with tiers from large specimens to smaller ones. Use a thermo gun.
2. It turns out that such a small beauty.
3. We decorate the tree with green tinsel, cutting it into small pieces and gluing it in between the cones.
New Year's Beauty is ready. Further you can also add ornaments, based on your taste and imagination.
From the scales
To make the tree look elegant, but not cumbersome, you can use only scales pine pine cones.
The desired amount can be cut using scissors, a pruner or a sharp knife.
This time we can not do without the base-cone made of paper or cardboard.
Scales begin to glue in circles starting from the bottom.
Each new row can be glued as in staggered order, and you can also one above the other.
The original decoration of the top of the head becomes a dried carnation.
We will wait for the glue to dry out and we can start painting. You can take as a spray paint, and ordinary acrylic.
We cover the ends of the scales with PVA and sprinkle with sequins.
The Christmas tree is ready!
