7 Weeks of Christmas Crafts- Week 4: Felt trees

Are we there yet?? I keep finding myself saying that phrase about the end of this crafting madness.  Ok, so I'm being a bit dramatic, but honestly I think I bit off more than I can chew.  Going from a person who crafts maybe once a year to once a week was kind of a leap, and I didn't factor any time in for messups!  Crafting is nearly impossible when you are a perfectionist.  My ornament isn't turning out the way I wanted, my wreath is a disaster... phew.

Pinterest Inspiration:



I now know EXACTLY why this photo does not show the top of the trees!  The tops just look a tad funny.

Overall I really like them.  They aren't in a place where someone could stare at the details and as a whole in the room they look great.

Next to my super awesome Advent Calendar! :)

  1. Very cute! And I love your observation about the tops. I did trees like this last year, only covering them with craft paper. I love how they turned out, but yes, the tops were very tricky and ended up looking a tad wonky. (PS - 'wonky' is my new go-to word for a minor crafting error :) )

  2. Wonky is a PERFECT word. I might have to borrow it :)
