Giant Wooden Tree

  • Step 1Paint your tree brown with a plain sponge roller covering the entire surface with paint.
  • Step 2While the paint is wet add texture to your tree by using different roller patterns. Create different shades of brown by adding black and white paint to the brown paint. Use a different shade of brown for each pattern roller you use. Allow to dry.
  • Step 3Cover your leaf shapes in assorted pieces of craft paper and cover paper. Attach with glue and trim excess paper from around the outside of your leaf. You can also paint your leaf shapes with sponge rollers the same way as you painted the tree (using greens instead of browns).
  • Step 4Attach the wooden tree to a wall using screws (depending on whether you want a permanent display or not).
  • Step 5Use Blu-Tack to arrange the leaves around the outside of the tree. Look to our design for inspiration or come up with your own.
