Winter Trees for Your Christmas Village

This is the first of many planned Holiday/Christmas tutorials for this season. We’re starting with the basics-trees! Can you ever really have too many?

Going to Hobby Lobby tomorrow after work! Thank you!

[@HalloweenVillagesbyCarl]

No worries-hope you can find them!

[@julietanieves3790]

Thank you, just what I was looking for.

[@HalloweenVillagesbyCarl]

Awesome-glad you enjoyed!

Great video Carl I also use air hardened clay for the basis or the clay that you can put in the oven and bake for 15 minutes that works also very well. If you use baking clay you have to make a hole first, bake it , let them it cool and then hot glue the tree in. I personally go from Halloween I quickly dismantle that use the same platforms and I set up a Thanksgiving Village which is just fall and you know apple orchard, and some buildings that Department 56 has for Thanksgiving and then from there I go to Christmas once thanksgiving's over. Great job on the video.

[@HalloweenVillagesbyCarl]

Awesome…great ideas! Glad you’re enjoying the channel!

[@Crusader1984]

Yeah, I agree. I also use air dry clay for the base of my trees. It gives them some weight.

Thanks for another tree tutorial - made the spooky trees (used spray foam for the bases when I ran out of foam board). Will be attempting a Lego holiday display for some holiday houses we've been putting together and now can add some holiday trees. Now need to figure out how to make Santa's Lego sleigh suspend in the sky. Looking forward to more holiday display videos you create. Thanks for sharing.

I had hoped that your tutorial was going to be how to build a snow or ice covered tree from scratch like how to coat the limbs with the snow or ice.

[@HalloweenVillagesbyCarl]

I’m sure there are some of those out there!

[@ryanmartin7033]

[@vanessahuman7607]

What did you use for ice

[@HalloweenVillagesbyCarl]

Not sure what you’re asking-bought floral stems at Hobby Lobby and made them into trees. They came that way.

[@vanessahuman7607]

@@HalloweenVillagesbyCarl they came with the ice looking stuff on the the branches?

[@HalloweenVillagesbyCarl]
