In general, only imagination is needed here, skillful hands and patience, and you can make any herringbone.

Such a Christmas tree will be beautiful, and most importantly an incredibly fragrant New Year's decoration or gift.
Coffee tree - master class
So, before proceeding to the description of the process of making a Christmas tree made of coffee, we will understand what materials you need in
- work:
- coffee beans (the number of grains depends on the size of the herringbone you are going to make);
- cardboard (fairly dense, but flexible);
- thread;
- double sided tape;
- hot glue (glue gun);
- scissors;
- The trunk for a tree (it can be a branch, as in this master class, but you can use both ribbon-bound bamboo sticks and other options for which you have enough imagination);
- decorations for a Christmas tree (beads or large beads, sequins, etc.)
And now, having decided on the materials, we will proceed directly to making a Christmas tree from coffee beans.
Step 1: First, fold the cone from the cardboard, fixing it with a double-sided tape. Align its edges, if necessary. Then, to fix the cone even better, wind it with a thread.
Step 2: Now you need to be patient and cover the foundation for the Christmas tree with coffee beans. Grain paste with an adhesive gun at an angle of approximately 70-80 degrees. You need to start gluing from the base of the tree, and not from the top. After the Christmas tree is covered with its "clothes", it must be decorated, because the Christmas tree of coffee without ornaments - it's not interesting. For decoration beautiful beads, bows, sequins - everything that you come up with will suit.
Step 3: The last step is to strengthen the Christmas tree. In this master class both the base and the trunk are wooden. It looks very stylish, but if suddenly you do not have a piece of wood on the farm for the base, then you can decorate the plastic cup, and for the trunk find a stick on the street. And to fix the trunk inside the tree, you need to use a glue gun.
Here is your Christmas tree of coffee beans and ready. It remains only to rejoice and to breathe in its beautiful aromas.
