How do I correctly attach a tree collar?

[StMaya]

To securely attach your tree collar, follow these steps: Begin by laying the collar flat with the inside facing up, revealing the elastic loops. Insert the long tube through the bottom row of loops and the short tube through the top row. Next, wrap the collar around the base of your tree. Connect the long tube ends using a tube connector, and repeat this for the short tube. Finally, fasten the hook and loop tabs to close the collar. Consider placing a weight, like a book, to keep the collar stable during assembly. Helpful tip: After assembly, ensure the tubes are hidden inside the collar. If visible, gently tuck them back in for a neat appearance. Following these steps ensures your tree collar is properly and securely in place.
