To make a small funny Christmas tree, we will need the following materials: gypsum, watercolor, coins, threads, knitting needles, needle, scotch tape, cardboard, pencil, synthetic winterizer, tubes from magazine sheets, 2-color tape, silicone glue, a small piece of wire, a pot or a plastic jar, a small cut of white satin fabric and a little patience.

1. Knit from our threads, I took a fluffy Christmas tree, a small triangle. I gained 60 loops. When 4 loops remain on the knitting needles, we knit them about 8-10 rows to get a sharp elongated tip.
