In my last post I mentioned how terrible of an artist I am… but even I might be able to create this crafty little Christmas tree! Although obviously I would make it while drinking beer and watching monster truck’s on my 42-inch TV!
Sparkle Labs have come up with an idiot-proof craft project for Christmas that even I could probably handle… but I wouldn’t cause I’m super manly and doing crafts or anything that involves construction paper is lame. But if you do decided to try it, when it’s completed it will make you look like a total Martha Stewart bad-ass!
You just download the PDF and print it onto construction paper or on regular white paper. Then take out your scissors and cut along the solid lines… you might need one of those fancy craft knives for the tree’s inner skeleton as it get’s a little intricate. After your tree has been cut out just fold on the dotted lines, tape it together, put some LED lights underneath it, and you’ve got yourself a desktop Christmas tree! Once lit the tree projects against the wall in a neat way, so if you like shiny things and are easily amused by light patterns… this is probably going to be for you! Rock n’ Roll!
I’m not going to lie… it looks pretty sweet and I’m going to make one as soon as I finish mowing the lawn, fixing my Harley, lifting weights, and getting a barbed-wire tattoo around my bicep.
Cheers!
