Trim your twigs so that one side of a Y joins will be supporting the miniature dolls house table top from underneath. There should be two of these on one edge of the table top so that the underneath supports match on one side, and its opposite side. The other two edges of the table top will not be supported from underneath.
Cut the join so that one side of the y fits under the table top reaching towards the Y coming from the other side, and the other side of the y goes up the outside edge of the top ,more or less above the leg. Don’t cut the outside piece of the y (the one that is outside the table top). It will help support the top while the glue dries and it can be trimmed off later.
Do not cut the legs to length yet!
When you have the y joins cut to fit, glue them so one side of the y reaches under the table top and the other side cradles the top outside edge of the table. Turn the table top over and push the outside edges of the y joins down into a piece of florist’s foam so they brace the table top and hold the rest of the branch (table leg) in place. Start with two on one side, and when the glue is dry, do the other two legs.
When all the legs have been glued to the table top, cut the tops of the outside Y shapes flush with the top of the table.
With your table resting on its’ top with the legs in the air, measure 2 ½ inches from the top to the leg and cut it to length. Do the same with the other legs. Turn the table right side up and check to see if the legs are square. If not, adjust the leg length on the longest leg. Pruning shears work well for cutting the twigs to length.
