Do this with your Christmas tree - Turn it into a Bonsai!
Christmas trees are cheap and great fun to work with - but challenging too! In this video we show how to create a Bonsai from this young Picea material, and show the process over 1.5 years time. Taking it slow, and doing things step-by-step is the way to go!
Bonsai Empire is dedicated to share the living art of Bonsai - we created this video as a DIY tutorial to help and motivate beginners. The video is part of the online courses that we offer, for more free videos go to:
