My apartment is very small. Small enough that I don't even have space for a little 3 foot Christmas tree. I was on
Pinterest the other day and I saw someone had made a Christmas tree out of felt pinned onto a cone. So, I found myself some felt squares, a Styrofoam cone and a cute topper and made this darling tree.
Here is a link to the original picture!
{yay for slightly crooked stars!}
It was super easy but a very time consuming. I did it over two nights because my fingers hurt from all the felt cutting!
Looking back I should have counted how many circles I cut. I used almost six 8 1/2 by 11 sheets. I also chose to cut three different sizes.
I'm quite happy with my new little tree!
Up next is my wreath named Violet!
What have you been crafting lately?

ps. I like the colours you used more than the original. It's more vibrant and cheery :)
ReplyDeleteI have a whole folder on my computer full of projects to try when I'll actually have time, so far I haven't had much success with the "time" part :). I like your tree, it's cute and I like the fact that you chose different colors for the "leaves".
ReplyDeleteLove your blog... great to see someone actually getting around to doing their projects!
