For the base, take a ball of foam rubber, whose diameter is 8 cm.
Now use the thermo gun to glue the first three coins, as shown in the photo.
We continue to glue the base with coins, we are doing the second row.
Similarly, glue the whole ball, and at the very end, leave some space so that you can insert the barrel.
For the trunk perfectly suited any branch or connected with each other Chinese sticks. This topiary of coins will have a barrel of aluminum wire( thick enough).
Decorate the future trunk with a golden hue tape, but do not forget to leave a piece of wire at both ends. One will be inserted into the ball-base, and the other bend, it will be fixed in the stand. When connecting the base and trunk in the crown, make a shallow hole, drip hot glue there, insert the barrel and press it.
To ensure that the place of connection of parts is not conspicuous, close it with an additional coin.

Pour it into a glass, and as soon as it begins to thicken, insert the center of the topiary. Lean the tree against the wall, so that it stands evenly, until the gypsum thoroughly solidifies.
After the surface has solidified, paint it with white gouache.
While waiting for the drying of the gouache, glue openwork to the trunk, and beads to them.
After covering the gouache with PVA glue and sprinkle on top with special sand or any other small material, for example, sparkles or beads.
You can also glue beads on the stand, on the crown itself or any other place on the topiary. At the end, cover the tree with a clear varnish so that the coins are not oxidized, and the topiary always remains bright and shiny.
