If your tree is small, you can use a thick piece cc styrofoam or a container of pebbles for a base. If it is large, you will need to fasten a circular piece of cardboard with a hole in the centre of the tube (trunk) to go through to the base of the wire cone. This cardboard circle is necessary to stabilize the cone. Put the tube in a pail or crock filled with wedges of wood and stones. Cut the tissue paper and stuff it into the wire mesh holes as you did for the hanging ball. If you want your tree to glitter, you can spray it with gold or silver paint or you can put glue on the tips of the paper (do only a small portion of the tree at a time) and then sprinkle glitter on the paper. - 30 -.
