Okay, so I saw this “money crystal tree” thing all over the internet and thought, “Why not give it a shot?” I’m always up for a little DIY project, especially if it might bring some good vibes (and maybe some extra cash, who knows?).
Getting Started
First things first, I needed to gather my supplies. I didn’t want to spend a ton of money, so I tried to use stuff I already had around the house.
- A small pot: I found an old ceramic one in the garage.
- Some wire: I used some floral wire I had leftover from another project. It’s pretty flexible, which is good.
- Crystals: Okay, I did buy these. I went to a local shop and picked out some small citrine and green aventurine stones. They’re supposed to be good for attracting wealth and abundance, or so I’ve read.
- Some small stones or pebbles:To hold down wire into pot.
- Glue: I grab my hot glue,it’s quick to fix the stones.
Putting It Together
The first step was to prepare some wire, I cut into several length,and twisted them together to make them stronger,it will become the “trunk” of my tree.
Then, I took the shorter pieces of wire and twisted them onto the “trunk” to create the “branches.” This part was a little tricky, trying to make it look like a somewhat natural, and took me many attempts to adjust.
Then I start to sticking the crystals onto the branches with hot glue,it’s pretty easy,I put on most are citrine and a few green aventurine.
After the crystal is all glued on, I put the tree into the pot,and use small stones to hold the “trunk” down.
The Finished Product
Honestly, it turned out better than I expected! It’s actually kind of cute, and it definitely adds a little sparkle to my desk. Whether or not it actually brings me money remains to be seen, but hey, it was a fun little project, and it makes me smile when I look at it. And that’s worth something, right?
