This detailed tutorial shows how to make eight leaf layers, prepare individual bead picks, weave green pipe cleaners over and under the silver leaf stems, and build a compact tree from the bottom up. We show the first two layers in detail, including how to join a new pipe cleaner. Then we shape the garland, fit the silver bead and star, and add the lights.

MATERIALS
Glass leaf beads — 52 leaves for eight layers
Small metal rings and silver craft wire — cut 20 cm for each separate bead pick
Gold seed beads and assorted round/flower accent beads
Green pipe cleaners and the center support pole
Pot, pot insert and decorative moss
One reserved silver bead pick and a yellow star topper
LED light string with its battery pack/switch
TOOLS TO PREPARE
Ruler, small pliers and wire cutters
LEAF LAYER GUIDE — BOTTOM TO TOP
10 leaves: 3 cm stems
9 leaves: 2.5 cm stems
8 leaves: 2 cm stems
7 leaves: 1.5 cm stems
6 leaves: 1 cm stems
5 leaves: 0.5 cm stems
4 leaves, then 3 leaves: close to the rings
Measure each finished stem from the leaf base to the ring. Allow extra working wire for twisting and fastening.
KEEP THESE DETAILS IN MIND
Slide the gold garland onto the pole before adding the leaf layers; lift it around the tree after the layers are built.
Use the green pipe cleaner for the over-and-under weave.
Keep the individual decorative beads slightly inside the leaf tips.
Press the layers down gently as you go.
The top two layers use center wrapping instead of the full weave.
Fit the star before trimming the pole, then add the light wire with relaxed tension.
Take your time and pause or revisit a chapter whenever you need. The video duration is edited demonstration time, not the time needed to make the complete tree.
