    \r\n
  1. Take a sheet of white card and twist it around itself to create a cone. Hold the cone in place using tape, then cut off the bottom section to make it level.<\/li>\r\n
  2. Wrap the cone in clingfilm, then fill a bowl with two parts PVA glue and one part water and mix it together.<\/li>\r\n
  3. Unravel the green embroidery thread and cut it in half. Then dip one half into the glue mixture.<\/li>\r\n
  4. Wrap the embroidery thread around the cone, starting from the bottom and working your way upwards. Make sure the thread overlaps itself.<\/li>\r\n
  5. Repeat step 4 with the other half of the green embroidery thread.<\/li>\r\n
  6. Leave the tree to dry overnight.<\/li>\r\n
  7. Once the thread has dried, carefully take it off of the cone. Then stick bauble stickers onto the tree and a yellow star on top.<\/li>","shopping_list":"
