I love miniatures! Maybe it’s because I’m tiny, myself, but I’m often drawn to teeny versions of real life “stuff”. Tiny unfinished wood spools are a staple in my craft stash because there are so many ways to use them (like I did here). I decided to turn them into a little bitty Christmas tree for the holidays. This wood spool Christmas tree would make a cute ornament or piece of table decor. Or, like my daughter, you can add it to a doll house!

Turn tiny wooden spools into an adorable miniature Christmas tree ornament! Fun project to make and to display. I
