Little November Christmas Trees Ready for Market

Today I went into the city and bought some more coloured beads to finish off the trees. 

My baubles also got a bit more sophisticated, with the use of fine jewelry hook rings rather than the more chunky wire I used earlier. 

The tinsel I made by unwinding some glittery cord. 

They look quite pleasing on parade:

 

...and in the parlor. 

Check out my trees on eBay.http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/121017697910?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649#ht_500wt_1138

Little November Christmas Trees

It is a little bit premature, but I decided to make a Christmas tree for the dollhouse. I decided the best course was to buy HO railway pine trees because of their realism.  

I bought a pack of seven trees with the view to making them all up and putting the six I don't use on eBay. I went to a craft shop and bought a selection of beads and other shiney small things to decorate them with.

I had to glue the bases on, and it was a challenge to get them straight..

I made the stars on top with by glueing two star shaped split pins together (above).

I made baubles with beads and wire as hooks.

Because they are quite small trees, I bought two little tables for them to sit on, like Victorian Christmas trees.

I haven't decorated the rest of the trees because I am going to go back to the shops and get some different coloured beads for some variety.  

For now though, they look very sweet in the parlour.
