Pattern

1. Attach the hanging loop to the gold star using a jump ring.
2. Begin beading directly below the star.
3. Increase gradually while working in a circular peyote or netting stitch to create a cone-shaped Christmas tree.
4. Continue increasing evenly until the tree reaches its widest point.
5. Add a spiral garland by weaving gold seed beads diagonally around the tree.
6. Insert small red, green, white, and pearl beads randomly as ornaments.
7. Stitch small white snowflake motifs onto the tree.
8. Once the tree section is complete, begin decreasing.
9. Continue beading into a long spiral tail by reducing the stitch count every few rounds.
10. Twist the tail naturally while stitching so it forms a decorative spiral.
11. Finish with one pearl bead.
12. Attach the gold snowflake charm below the pearl.
13. Secure all threads and weave in the ends.

Color Variations

Tips

• Keep thread tension firm for a crisp spiral.
• Use identical bead sizes for an even surface.
• Add the gold garland after the tree body is finished for a cleaner look.
• Stuffing is not required; the shape is maintained by bead tension.
• Reinforce the hanging loop with multiple thread passes for durability.

Assembly

• Attach the hanging cord to the gold star.
• Hang the ornament on a Christmas tree, wreath, garland, or holiday display.
• Create matching sets in red, white, and green for a coordinated decoration collection.
