How to Build LEGO Trees

After completing a LEGO house or castles, add some scenery by building trees. While some LEGO sets come with a premade tree, you may want a forest surrounding the building. Make your own trees by using green narrow bricks. The green bricks are made up of a line of single "dots." The number of dots on the brick dictates the size. For example, a thin brick may have three dots sitting horizontally.

1. • 1

     Stack the 6x1 green cubes on top of each other, alternating the direction as you stack them so that every set of two bricks looks like a "X."

   • 2

     Stack the 4x1 strips in a "X" shape on top of what you first built.

   • 3

     Put the 2x1 bricks together to make a cross. Press the cross on top of what you have already built.

   • 4

     Place the single 1x1 cube on top of the stack of cups to finish the tree.
