Step-by-step instruction for creating a trunk

The money tree of beads with its own hands (more precisely, its frame) should be made of thick copper wire. It is worth noting that the size and direction of growth of such a plant you should choose at your own discretion. However, the more branches there are on the tree, the denser and more beautiful will be your self-created souvenir. Thus, when constructing the base of the wire, it should be immediately installed in a small decorative pot and fixed with a special glue.

In order to create this mass, in a separate bowl, PVA glue and building gypsum must be mixed in equal proportions . It should be noted that such a mixture hardens instantly, so it is recommended to use it extremely quickly for the intended purpose.

After the frame is installed in the pot, you should proceed to its design. To do this, the newly diluted sticky mass is required to stick to the wire so that it eventually resembles a tree trunk.
