String-Light "Wall" Tree with Felt Star Ornaments

No time for decorating? or just have an empty wall that needs some sparkle before your Holiday Party?

Recreate this beautiful Wall Tree from Martha Stewart's Crafts

To create one, use adhesive hooks (four along the bottom, one at the top) to hang lights in the shape of a Christmas tree. Felt star ornaments add to the twinkle effect -- ivory and white are particularly chic, but you can make them in any color.
