Step 1

Step 1:

Cut 5 lengths of wire. The wire length should be 3 to 4 times the height of your tree. I'm making a 2" tree so these wires are 7 inches long. It also depends on the shape of your tree... an upright will need less length:Height ratio... a weeping will need more. You'll get the hang of it once you make a few.

 

Step 2:

Bend wires in half... if you want a beaded tree then insert 3-5 beads per wire. Basically each bead equals to the number of branching you get.

 

Step 3:

Starting from the cut ends twist wires together. Make it as tight as you can, but be careful not to break the wires from twisting too tight.
