I created my Cheap 'n' Crafty Xmas Tree/Hanukkah Bush starting with an armature made of chopsticks and a paper towel tube. I cut, folded and fringed green construction paper and attached them to broken-in-half chopsticks, poked holes in the tube and stuck the sticks in the holes to create the branches. Then I cut up the chopsticks' colorful wrappers into little circles to make ornaments for my tree. Yarn serves as my garland, and cotton balls for snow. The Christmas Tree can be converted into a Hanukkah Bush by taking off the star that's on it now and putting the Menorah you see in the slot where the star is now. Happy Holidays!! ~ Stephanie Bailey
