Make a high-end wood Chevron Christmas tree with this no-measure easy process!
Supplies:

Instructions:
Preparing the sign boards
- Cut sign boards longer and wider than the stencil image.
- Paint the cut boards black.
- Support the boards by screwing in two 1.5 wood strips along the top and bottom.
Wood strips
- Place each mini stencil strip onto a 1.5 cedar strip, then trace each one twice.
- Cut the wood strips with a miter saw, ensuring the angled cuts are all the same degree.
Stenciling
- Center the Chevron Christmas Tree stencil in the center of the boards.
- Stencil the tree star and tree stand as desired.
- Gently swipe the stencil brush along the spine of the tree to create a light impression for the future cedar strip placements.
Hot gluing
- Hot glue each wood strip to the tree.
- If you made wood block presents, decorate, then hot glue into place.
- Glue on any kinds of decor you wish.
Fairy Lights
- Drill a small hole at the bottom of the tree where you wish for the lights to start.
- Feed the light string through the back, then place along the tree where desired. I held mine to the tree with screws acting as ornaments.
