How to prepare a base for a Christmas centerpiece made of wood
Arrange wooden slices with a diameter of approx. 8 cm in a circleand connect the sides of the slices with hot glue. In addition, to make the reed more stable, we also stick the joints of the discs. In the places where patches with a diameter of 8 cm are joined, glue smaller patches with a diameter of 6 cm on them.Press the slices firmly against each other, holding for a while, so thatthe glue binds the disc surfaces well
How to decorate a wooden Christmas centerpiece?
Decorating a Christmas centerpiece made of woodstarts with sticking white candles and decorative jute bows to wooden slices. We prepare the bows from a piece of jute, 10 cm wide, folded in half.
