How it goes together

  1. 1. Cut the two trees

    Cut both trees from green card, in one shade or two. The starred tree is slotted up from the foot of its trunk and the plain tree down from its tip; each slot is 0.8 mm wide, and its mouth opens out to start the other tree. If you resize, resize both together. The slots change with them (0.4 mm wide at 50%), so cut a test slot in a scrap of your card first and check that a strip of the same card slides in without bending.

  2. 2. Slide them together

    Hold the plain tree upright. Lower the starred tree onto it from above, slot into slot, until the two feet are level. Each slot runs to the middle of its tree, with 1 mm to spare where they meet, so the trees seat all the way.

  3. 3. Turn the wings square

    Turn the trees until they cross at right angles, so the four wings sit evenly. Tie a thread through the 4 mm hole in the star to hang it. If the trees sit loose, a dot of glue where the slots meet holds them square.
