How to assemble an artificial Christmas tree
Every year, in December, people begin to prepare for the most anticipated and magical holiday. On the eve of the New Year, everyone buys gifts to please their family and friends. A mandatory element of the holiday is the New Year tree. Since ancient times, people have carefully chosen the most beautiful tree in the forest. Having brought home, the fir tree was placed in the center of the room in full view and decorated with all kinds of toys, tinsel, and the top was decorated with the most beautiful toy or star. Gifts were placed down under the spreading branches, which were opened in the first seconds of the New Year.
Despite our long history and technological progress, we remain faithful to the traditions of our ancestors. Every year everyone decorates their houses to create a festive atmosphere, and a Christmas tree is placed in the center of the room, as before. Of course, in recent years, real trees have been used less and less; artificial trees have replaced them. This is due to the fact that the needles of living Christmas trees fall off, they gradually die and after the holiday they need to be thrown away and purchased again a year later.

How to assemble a collapsible artificial Christmas tree
Among the artificial varieties of fir trees, there are several varieties that differ in size, color and decoration - snow or cones, design and assembly mechanism.

Assembling a whole Christmas tree: step by step process

- As in the previous version, we begin to fasten the parts of the future trunk. It is important that they are firmly connected and do not come out of the grooves.
- After we have received the finished frame, we install it in a special tripod or other type of support.
- Now we shape the branches and make them fluffy. If the product is securely fixed and of good quality, you can hold it against the direction of the needles and in this way quickly straighten the branches.
The tree is ready, all that remains is to check its stability and start decorating.
How to assemble a Christmas tree with numbered branches
Not the simplest method, at first glance, is the construction of a spruce tree with step-by-step attachment of branches strictly according to numbers.
- We start, as before, by installing the barrel. Here we follow the same pattern.
- After this, we install the tree into the support.
- There are special marks on the rod and each branch that you need to navigate by. Insert all the parts according to the markers starting from the bottom edge. For convenience in the future, combine the branches of the lower, middle and upper levels into one bundle. This will greatly facilitate the search and reduce installation time.
REFERENCE! To more fully create the atmosphere of a New Year's mood and obtain a fragrant smell, you can take small branches of a real tree and place them in a jar or vase filled with water. You can put tangerines on the table nearby.
