DIY- Modern Rustic Holiday Tree

This program is currently unavailable. Click here to view all of our current programs.


Working with power tools can be intimidating, but learning the safe way to operate them opens up a world of DIY and custom décor. This class is part of a series to introduce you to the most commonly used tools for those special projects.

Modern Rustic Holiday Trees
You’ll learn the basics of shop safety and how to use a chop saw, aka power miter saw.
Learn how to plan angular cuts as well as how to make cuts when your boards are a bit too big for your saw. You'll make 3 sizes of tree, approximately 5.25", 7", & 9.25" tall.

*If you wish to wear gloves and/or a dust mask, you must provide those for yourself.
Please ensure your hair is pulled back and that you’re wearing closed toe shoes. Do not wear flowy clothing – especially sleeves. It is usually wise to not wear jewellery in the shop.

You can find more information at https://www.facebook.com/Studio45.Sarah including some sample ideas for taking the project a step further with paint, stain, and some crafty supplies.
