As Christmas is getting nearer you must be aware that itโs going to be hectic! So here is a dowel Christmas tree idea to keep you occupied and sane during the ongoing preparations for holidays.
Dowel Christmas Tree
Instead of the regular Christmas tree, festoon your living space with this unique yet festive Christmas tree made from wooden dowels, spray paint, sander, and pine board.
Materials
- Dowel (1 1/4โณ and 1/2โณ)
- Pine Board
- Drill
- Sander
- Spray Paint
- Tape
- Cloth
Directions
Cut your 1/2โณ dowel into various lengths โ biggest about 2โฒ and smallest about 6โณ. Sand and wipe clean with a towel. With the 1 1/4โณ dowel, start about 10-12โณ from the bottom and begin drilling holes about 2โณ apart all the way to the top and from various angles. Sand and wipe clean with a cloth. Cut a base out of pine board and drill a hole about 1 1/4โณ to fit the center dowel in so it can stand. Sand and wipe clean using a cloth. Spray paint the base white, as well as a portion of the mail dowel (1 1/4โณ) by taping off a section. You can choose to paint as much or as little as you would like. Let dry and then put your dowel tree together! Enjoy!
