To keep him vertical he has his segments stuck together with short strips of clear Velcro ( so he can be stored in pieces) and the hold body bound to black metal trellis (from Bunnings) again with Velcro. Hair and arms held on with Velcro. Hopefully won't get too much wind as he will sit against the wall in the carport.

Hey Logan, I cannot find this trellis at my local Bunnings. I know this was 2 years ago but is it still available? If not any other solutions? My faces will sit on outside of window, but not sure how to secure them in place?

My smaller tree is strapped to a window with packing type strap pulled in through the window and down to the ground and held with two bricks.
It's crude but it works. Also used some double sided tape on the back of the tree stuck to the window frame. Has survived a few strong blows.

Thanks Logan.
I have a metal frame sliding window so I wouldn't be able to use strapping or string like you have, but the tape/Velcro could be an option.

Sorry I cleared out some old YouTube videos and those went. They weren't overly riveting, just examples of Olaf lit up and singing. Pretty much the same as in my Christmas sequence videos. Never actually got around to making a video of making them but I think the photos are still there which show how they are put together.
