Oh Christmas Tree, oh Christmas Tree

Hi all,

Something a little different from me today, I love trying out new things and having a go at making 3D projects rather than just cards. So when I came across a leaflet in Hobbycraft for a cute button Christmas Tree I knew I had to have a go (who knew all those buttons left over from the shop would come in handy!!).


I just love how this turned out and tbh its pretty easy to make and only took me about an hour & half from start to finish. All you basically do is pin buttons onto a Styrofoam cone shape, you do however need a lot of buttons and pins - I think I probably used at least 300 on this tree (which is about 12" high).

I went with a very traditional red, green and white theme, as that matches the rest of my Christmas decorations as this year I am going for a bit of a homespun look so this will deff fit right in place.

Thanks for popping by my blog today
