Fold strips in half starting with 15x72", making it 7 1/2 x 72". Run heavy basting thread close to fold 1/4". Tie both ends of thread together as tightly as possible, tying several knots. Open material and ruffle. Slip disc over dowel stick which has been mounted in wood base. Round cardboard goes on first to support ruffle. Repeat for each strip. After all net discs have been placed on dowel stick, ruffle completely. Add small ornaments. Put glue on edges and add glitter for extra decorations.

shape limbs of wire. Spray paint white. wrap the clear lights with white wiring around the tree and limbs then cover with the tulle. Tie it around the limbs with white ribbon. Maybe add small flowers in brides chosen colors.

I would bend the hanger wires out at the bottom to create "roots" and make the tree stand up better.
