- 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!
Let me know if you have any questions about my tutorial in the comments below. Feel free to tell me what you liked or didn't like about this video :)

"We're making this tree, it's a nice tree" DAMN RIGHT IT IS!
Absolutely gorgeous! You're so creative!

@@Geordiecrafts I also adore how you do your commentary, its exactly my kind of comedy 😂 keep up the great work!

Literally her for the tree and now I’ve found a new crafting channel I can enjoy. Newly subbed 😊
Same! 😂
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.
I believe this is one of the best tutorials on trees I have ever seen! ❤
Its not nice ITS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!
I've not only bought a few cheap trees like this from China that look terrible, but seen other CZcamsrs 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. 😊
THANK YOU!! God, I was stuck with my DIY Japanese Garden book nook, and this seriously saved the project.
This was really well done. I am making a sleepy hollow type grave and this is the perfect style tree. Thank you!
Thought this was about a real bonsai cherry tree! Came out learning how to create one. Love art!!!
Excellent piece of art!
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
No, THAT is a BEAUTIFUL tree there! Thank you!
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.
I grow my own bonsai trees, have done for several years now but this…. love this ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Gorgeous! I'm always amazed by people a talents!
Wow! Thank You for being so inspiring and fun at the same time
Your tutorials are so easy to follow and your personality and style make me smile every time. Thanks for the awesome tree!
Stunning! Marvelous! Awsome! No words...
AMAZING! What a talented and creative person you are. Thanks for sharing.
LOL! I was so excited when I saw the tree form in the first minute of the video. Then 80 percent of the work
Absolutely gorgeous!!! ❤
Wow! That’s gorgeous!
Thank you for this simple and practical video. I am 61 and thanks for give me a new passion. 💫
Simply Amazing, looks perfect
The white stage and black stage were my favorites! 🖤
Just found this channel, and I love how simple, yet amazing this project looks.....I'm totally giving this a go ...
Awesome! Let me know how it turns out!
Wow 🤩 what a beautiful piece of art.
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 !
I'm just about to start landscaping my new o gauge trainboard, just finished laying and debugging the track. Will try to show you some shots of my first scratch built trees. Thanks so much for the detailed instructions. Gary
Crafting and dancing is the best combo !
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.
So gorgeous! 🥰
The fact that she was cutting the wire on beat to the music! satisfying, heh!! great tree btw
Very nice tutorial, I actually never thought about using hot glue for the bark - definitely trying it out.
Yeah the hot glue works out really well for the bark, It's durable, flexible, and easy to shape with hot tools!
That's flipping AMAZING!!! THANK YOU
Great stuff!! One of the best Tree making videos I've seen online.
Thank you for keeping this simple… perfect video 👌
Total Awesomeness 😮
Fabulous! What a piece of fabulous work
Yes love your beautiful trees you built them
That is a awesome looking tree, will be trying this out sometime. Thank you!
You are a brilliant artist. ❤ your project.
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 👍
This is the most beautiful tree I have ever seen❤
Really enjoyed this ..I started this 20 or more years ago ..never knew others did this ..I wanted to share what I've used for my foliage..I used silver mond moss ..
Amazing tree! Love the hot glue bark technique.
This video is perfect in every way.
Amazing work! So impressive.
3 minutes in and now I’m newly subbed…. This is a fantastic idea… it works absolutely brilliantly!!❤
Gorgeous... Such talent.. wow
This is aggravatingly amazing.
Very impressive work of art.
So well done!!!
Excellent! Thank you!
Nice tree! I will definitely try this out for dioramas. Thank you! 🐤
Best tree idea Ive seen yet
Dang. After 25 years, it took this video to show me what I was doing wrong XD Always used to twist the wire all the way up from the roots, makes it nearly impossible to make a tree like this. Thank you, and great work!
Glad you found it helpful! I used to do my trees that way too and it is great for smaller trees, but doesn't really work well for larger ones. (Plus you get a bonus of carpal tunnel syndrome 😅).
I learned the wrapping technique from the The Terrain Tutor here on youtube, super great channel! 😁
You're some kind of wizard
Absolutely gorgeous! Very well done instructions too. Thank you for sharing your talent with all of us. Wonderful. :)
Very beautiful tree. I find paintable silicone easier to work with to cover tree branches than hot glue (hate it). Takes a while to dry, but cheaper, rougher and stronger as well.
I like all your Tree that you have made so far !!!
That is BRILLIANT.
Only my second video that I watched from your channel and it is was shown and explained in such a way where I felt like I could do it.
Beautiful job Geordie!! The music and dancing were much appreciated 💕
Aw thank you Abby! ❤️😊
Brilliant!
Beautiful work.
Thank you.🫡🤜🤛👏👍
Very clever, and great presentation. Love it, n love your dancing inbetween.❤
I've done a few gem stone trees but I always wanted to create something a bit more realistic. Thank you so much this video helps inspire my creativity.
You're a creative and talented gal!!! Big ups!!!❤❤❤
This tree is perfect!
