This project was shared with me a little while ago and I knew that I wanted to make a set for my house. The originals with instructions are over at Shanty 2 Chic and they are so cute! Those are shabby chic, and I like that style a lot, but it doesn't really go with my Christmas decor. I'm all about the glitter and sparkle! My fake tree is silver if that helps you understand :D
Anyway, here are the trees that I made...
I bought one large and two smaller styrofoam tree forms. The ribbon all came from Wal-Mart (believe it or not) and I don't have a ruffler foot, but my mom came over one day and gathered it all for me after I told her I was too lazy and impatient to do it myself. The candlestick bases are from Hobby Lobby and so are the glass doorknob tree toppers. All on sale, woohoo! I added a little more cheapo wired ribbon around the toppers to help hide the top and wrapped it around a pencil to give it that ringlet shape. The bases are attached with liquid nails.
Anyway, I hope you like them! I know I do :)
