Choose your topper - Santa, a reindeer or a star - and the finished tree sits on a desk, shelf, mantel or bedside table with lights glowing through its beaded branches.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMost Christmas craft kits are made for children - felt, glitter and glue, finished in twenty minutes and forgotten by New Year. Adults who enjoy making things have far fewer options, and a store-bought decoration never means quite as much as one you made yourself. A beaded tree sits in between: it is a proper project with a lot of small, satisfying steps, it keeps your hands busy and your phone down on the long evenings before Christmas, and the result is a decoration you will unpack and put out again every year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDIY beaded Christmas tree kit with lights\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAcrylic beads\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGreen and red\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTopper options\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSanta, reindeer (listed as Elk) or star\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eListed size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 x 14 x 5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDisplay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTabletop - desk, shelf, mantel or bedside table\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSkill level\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdult craft project\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 x\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eComplete DIY beaded Christmas tree kit with lights and your chosen topper\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot listed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTools - the pliers seen in some photographs are not listed in the kit contents\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFurniture, candles and other decor shown in the photographs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Make a Beaded Christmas Tree\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSomething to make, not just buy\u003c\/strong\u003e - a hands-on Christmas project instead of another decoration off the shelf.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA keepsake\u003c\/strong\u003e - beads don't wilt or fade, so the tree comes out again every December.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLights woven in\u003c\/strong\u003e - the finished tree glows, so it works as a night light as well as a decoration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree toppers\u003c\/strong\u003e - a cheerful Santa, a reindeer or a classic star to suit your style.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA gift for makers\u003c\/strong\u003e - an easy present for anyone who likes beading, puzzles or detailed craft.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow Long Does a Beaded Christmas Tree Take to Make?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlan on several sittings rather than a single evening - that is part of the appeal. A beaded tree is built branch by branch, threading beads and shaping each piece before the branches are assembled around the trunk and the topper goes on. To make it easier, sort the beads by colour into a tray or egg carton before you start, work on a tray with a lip so dropped beads don't roll away, and use good light. A small pair of craft pliers makes bending and finishing much neater if you have one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eIs a Beaded Tree a Good Christmas Craft for Adults?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, for anyone who likes detailed, repetitive making - the same people who enjoy jigsaws, cross-stitch, diamond painting or building sets. It is relaxing rather than difficult: the steps repeat, progress is visible after every session, and there is no painting involved because the colour is all in the beads. It also works as a shared project, with one person threading and another assembling, which makes it a nice thing to do together in the lead-up to Christmas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow Do You Store a Beaded Christmas Tree After Christmas?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWrap the tree loosely in tissue paper so the branches keep their shape, and store it upright in a box with some padding around it rather than squashed flat under other decorations. If your lights run on batteries, take the batteries out before packing it away so they cannot leak over the year. Keep it somewhere dry. Next December, bend any branches back into shape and it is ready to display again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBuyers are typically adults looking for Christmas crafts for adults, people who enjoy beading, jigsaws and other detailed hobbies, gift buyers shopping for a crafty friend or relative, and anyone who wants a small tabletop Christmas tree for a desk, bedroom or unit without the space for a full-size tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSee our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/christmas\"\u003eChristmas\u003c\/a\u003e range, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/craft-sewing\"\u003ecraft and sewing\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/craft\"\u003ecraft\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/gift-ideas\"\u003egift ideas\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat comes in the kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne complete DIY beaded Christmas tree kit with lights and the topper you choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich toppers can I choose?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSanta, a reindeer (listed as Elk) or a star.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe listed size is 20 x 14 x 5cm.
