Rustic Reclaimed Wood Christmas Trees
I used a small circular saw (which I use on everything) to cut from the corner of the board to the center of the top to create a triangle.
One cut in each direction.
What was left after I cut the center triangle were 2 half triangles that fell off of each side. So I used them too!
As you can see below, the darker tree has a seam down the center.
I used rulers and wooden sticks for the tree trunks, gluing the triangles to the sticks using wood glue then securing them with a nail gun.
I carved out a channel in a block of wood for the stand then wood glued the trunk into the base.
I used antiquing gel to stain the bases, tree trunks, and a few of the trees.

I added a wooden star to the top of each tree. The stars were painted silver and glittered.
Love the rustic Christmas trees and how you used rulers as trunks. Super Cute!
