Rope Christmas Tree - Easiest Holiday Tutorial EVER

Jul 27, 2018

Welcome to Fork + Rose, where we bring you the easiest holiday tutorial ever - a rope Christmas tree made using fringe hand towels. In this step-by-step guide, we will show you how to create a unique and festive decoration that will add a touch of Christmas magic to your home.

Materials Needed

  • 1 large fringe hand towel
  • 1 medium-sized fringe hand towel
  • 1 small fringe hand towel
  • Rope or string (approximately 1 meter in length)
  • Scissors

Step 1: Prepare Your Materials

Before we begin, make sure you have all the necessary materials at hand. Choose fringe hand towels in colors that match your Christmas theme and gather them together. Cut a piece of rope or string that is approximately 1 meter long to serve as the base of your rope Christmas tree.

Step 2: Create the Base

To start, fold the large fringe hand towel in half lengthwise. Place the folded towel on a flat surface and position the rope or string along the fold line. Fold the towel over the rope, creating a loop around it. Make sure the rope is securely tucked inside the towel.

Step 3: Build the Layers

Take the medium-sized fringe hand towel and repeat the folding process, this time creating a loop around the previous layer. Position the towel slightly below the previous layer for a tiered effect. Repeat this step with the smaller fringe hand towel, placing it below the medium-sized towel.

Step 4: Secure and Shape

Once you have all the layers in place, tie the ends of the rope or string together to secure the tree. Gently adjust and shape the towels to create a fuller and more tree-like appearance. You can also fluff out the fringe for added volume.

Step 5: Add Decorations (Optional)

If desired, you can further enhance your rope Christmas tree by adding decorations. Consider attaching small ornaments, fairy lights, or tiny bows to the fringe. Let your creativity shine and personalize your tree according to your own style and preferences.

Step 6: Display and Enjoy!

Your rope Christmas tree is now complete! Find a suitable spot in your home to display your creation and spread the holiday cheer.
