How to Make a STUNNING Tree - The Easy Way

I made this wire tree for my friend as a birthday gift, as such, I put it in a pot to be used as décor, but it's a great tree for D&D, wargaming, diorama's and more! Plus it's easy to make!

I would give you 50 thumbs up if i could. You made it look so easy, and the tree came out gorgeous and natural looking. Thank you.

Literally her for the tree and now I’ve found a new crafting channel I can enjoy. Newly subbed 😊

Same! 😂

[@dheerajmitra8693]

Excellent piece of art!

[@justjo413]

Thought this was about a real bonsai cherry tree! Came out learning how to create one. Love art!!!

[@_annie_]

THANK YOU!! God, I was stuck with my DIY Japanese Garden book nook, and this seriously saved the project.

[@Emma-jg4bt]

your videos are so incredibly impressive. Not only your crafting skills but also the videography. Hell you can even 3d modell that is so cool

[@joelsteverson]

That is beautiful work. I haven't made a tree in ages. I've always thought it wasn't worth the time it took to make them, but this video has inspired me to give it another try. This is definitely much, much better than the technique I was previously taught.

[@OldHammerMiniPainter]

I grow my own bonsai trees, have done for several years now but this…. love this ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@dcaldwell1026]

This was really well done. I am making a sleepy hollow type grave and this is the perfect style tree. Thank you!

[@laurenmallon4963]

have watched a lot of these "how to" videos, and this is the best one yet, you are good at explaining how to do, and it is simple and pretty cool ! thanks !

[@lucifermorningstar1975]

Ah what to say, I mean obviously the tutorial is awesome and you know that so I'll address the underrated thing, The OUTRO is dope and much creative

[@CovertRadio]

I guess if you squint your eyes,... and tilt your head. You can kinda see what could sorta resemble a tree.
🤭Naaa it's awesome. 😁

[@chriscarmona7725]

10/10 the quality content (with excellent editing, thank you for not going over the top with sillyness and sound effects) that I'm here for. Subbed.

Thanks! Yeah I try to keep the editing fairly clean while still leaving a bit of room for fun haha.
Thanks for the sub, I appreciate it 🙏

I just came across and watched this video. You are awesome. Thank you for making it so much fun. It put the most amazing smile on my face, a perfect way to start my day. Thanks again 👍

[@Elfhelm]

Very nice tutorial, I actually never thought about using hot glue for the bark - definitely trying it out.

[@Geordiecrafts]

Yeah the hot glue works out really well for the bark, It's durable, flexible, and easy to shape with hot tools!

[@rcisneros8567]

LOL! I was so excited when I saw the tree form in the first minute of the video. Then 80 percent of the work

[@lisakillz1853]

That was awesome thank you

[@sybil5077]

I tried your glue technique today, I love it. I will be using it often. At the risk of being thought of as lazy, I did omit the painting step. I used black and brown glue sticks instead. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@fabiorodrigues890]

Simply Amazing, looks perfect

[@wanderingIvy67]

I wish I had all that equipment. 😊

[@PlanetEarth3141]

I've not only bought a few cheap trees like this from China that look terrible, but seen other TH-camrs doing this. Yours is way better.
At the end I was imaging what the tree would look like with florescent paint as it gave a glow from absorbed light or from phosphorescent paint from blacklights. Either would a quite haunting appearance. Probably also alter other colors like your pink flock. 😊

[@Cleatus546]

Brilliant!
Beautiful work.
Thank you.🫡🤜🤛👏👍
