Directions

1. Remove and measure the back of the bookshelf

template)

4. Trace with a bright colored marker

5. Spread the ceramic tile adhesive onto the wood

6. Separate your different color glass or ceramic into deli cups or tupperware

7. Place pieces of glass and ceramic onto the tile adhesive, following the pattern of your tree

8. Allow to try for 24 hours

times)
