Bobble St: Yarn over, insert hook into stitch, yarn over and pull through (three loops on hook), yarn over and pull through 2 of the loops. Repeat the previous step four more times so that you have five not-quite-complete dc stitches worked into the same stitch. There will be six loops on the hook. Yarn over and pull through all six loops. This closes your bobble crochet stitch.

Assembly:
If you are not decorating the trees, you’re done here! Weave in ends and enjoy! If needed, you can plump them up with a a bit of polyfil stuffing but they should stand on their own
If you’re decorating the trees, go wild! My only suggestion here is to place the lights on first! Here is the way I worked through this part – I used a battery operated 50ct light pack and I allocated 25 lights for the large, 15 lights for the medium and 10 lights for the small. I pushed them up inside the tree and poked out the lights in a random fashion. This part might take some massaging as they will want to poke all the way out which doesn’t look as nice. I am keeping the set of 3 together so when i was done with the large size, I then tucked into the medium right beside it. This way you only need 1 light pack for the set of 3 trees.
For the toppers, I used a bobby pin to attach to the back of the ornament and poked the stem into the top of the tree. This held it in place nicely.
These are just suggestions, no rules here! Enjoy!
