How to:
- Print and cut out pattern. Resize the pattern to create trees of different sizes. Cut two tree shapes for each standing tree. Cut one tree down to the center mark from the top and cut the second tree up from the bottom to the center mark.
Insert Photo 2 of Trees cut out - While lying flat, glue buttons to both sides of tree shapes. Insert one tree shape into the second.
