How to Build Wooden Christmas Tree!

  1. Apply the Templates


    Download Templates and print out at 100% scale. You may need to uncheck any “scale to fit” or similar option. Cut the star off the one template and place to fit between the two tree parts. Then, adhere those templates to your 1×6 with spray adhesive.

  2. Cut Out the Parts


    To cut the parts out you could do it all with a jig saw, scroll saw or band saw but I used a circular saw for the straight cuts to get a straight, clean cut.

    On the templates you will find some crosshairs where you can use a 3/4″ drill bit. I used a forstner bit to get a clean hole.

    To finish off the half lap joint on the two tree parts I used a jig saw.

    The star can get cut out with jig saw, scroll saw or band saw.

  3. Drill Dowel Holes


    After applying finish to each piece, I then used a 1/4″ forstner bit to drill a hole in the bottom of the star.

    I also did the same for the top of the tree.

    DIY Christmas Decor Step 21

  4. Assemble


    After that, the assembly is pretty straightforward. The two tree parts slide together and the 1/4″ dowel is used to attach the star on the top. Wood glue is not required since everthing fits together pretty snug but can be used for a permanent assembly if desired.

Thats’s it, this is a super simple project that will add to your Christmas decor!

Wooden Star

DIY Christmas Decor Rogue Engineer 11

By Jamison Rantz

So my super talented friend Jaime from That’s My Letter ran into a little problem years ago. She was trying to build this wooden star she had seen on Pottery Barn from a 1×2 and couldn’t figure out what angles to cut the wood at to get the perfect star. I was honored that she turned to me for help and, with a little CAD, was able to quickly determine the angles that she needed. Be sure to check out her step-by-step post detailing exactly how she built her stars.

Luckily my miter saw goes to 60 degrees but you’re probably wondering how you’re going to make a 54 degree cut if your miter saw only goes to 45 or 50 degrees. Well lucky for you, Jaime shows us how to make a wedge jig here.
