Step 9FINISHING TOUCHES
Finally, we're almost done!
there are tree (rofl) options here:
1: Take some of the cotton balls and "fluff" em' up to make fake snow. then hot glue your fake snow to the wooden base of the tree. Try and cover up as much of the lids as possible, make it look nice.
2: Use shiny cloth to make your tree shine! Hot glue around the base and attach a 9.5 X 3" strip of shiny cloth. use ultimate folding techniques to make the strip meet up nicely in the center. (You can combine more than one option)
3: USE YOUR IMAGINATION! Make it UUber cool and mod it with more LEDs, or whatever you want.
Also, if you don't mind tedious soldering and wire cutting/ stripping, you can continue to make those little curves previously mentioned in step 6 all the way around the tree. this will make it look pretty darn cool, but WILL take a while. MAKE SURE that you don't wire any of the anodes to the grounded copper wire, and also that you don't wire the green/blues to the reds or whites, or the whites to the reds. (I didn't do this, I'm too impatient)
NOW YOU'RE DONE!!
Plug it in and enjoy your holiday-spirited tree!
