Vintage Bejeweled Tree

I got the inspiration for my tree from this pin on Pinterest. I really wanted to create a subdued tree. I'm loving how it sparkles in the light!


Unfortuately, I don't have great pictures as my good camera is being loaned out, so I've only got cell phone pics but here we go...


Lately, this book page base has been something I'm hooked on! So you will see more of it. I modge podged the base with old book pages. 


Then I strung a mix of clear, iridescent, and pearlized beads on wire. Some odd buttons were strung as well as mini jingle bells, onto pieces of wire strung together like garland.



The small circle from Punch Pack and the 3/4" circle punch were used to create the balls on my tree. Champagne and Silver glimmer paper worked great for this.



Happy New Year!
