Christmas Tree 2010

So you see I did the white tree this year. With Blue & Silver it really came out good. I just love the white tree.

 I used the blue felt skirt that I machine embroidered with the Merry Christmas motif.

I added the wire garland with little stars at the last. I really wanted blue ribbon about 1/2" but couldn't find any anywhere! Go Figure. I'm going to have to keep an eye out for a silver star too.

It's The White TreeThis Year

I kinda rotate trees, I go through the green fake tree, then the white fake tree, then a real tree, then the green fake tree....well you get the idea. This year I went with bright jewel tones. I've been kind of sticking with one color the last few years so this is a nice change


The I always try to make some part of the theme too. This time it's the paper chain. I cut card stock in 3" wide strips then folded them in half the long way. Then used my 1 1/2" punch to punch along the fold. Then I used the 1" punch to make a hole in the middle. Then just unfold and link them together. Cuter than the original paper chain I think!
