SEASON<br />
Text: Lindi Botha. Photographer: Matthys Ferreira<br />
To ring in the cheer<br />
this festive season,<br />
BUCO has created<br />
two DIY projects<br />
that can be crafted<br />
at home during the<br />
holidays. Gather the<br />
family, host a craft<br />
day and add some<br />
extra festive glee to<br />
your home.<br />
Christmas tree<br />
While nothing quite makes a<br />
statement like a ceiling-high fir tree,<br />
this no-fuss, modern creation adds<br />
extra sparkle to an entrance hall,<br />
office reception or a small apartment<br />
limited on space.<br />
You will need<br />
• 2x pine cleats cut to 80cm in length<br />
