Personal Desk Pink Button Cone Tree

Personal Desk Pink Button Cone Tree
Handmade by me and measures approx.10 inches high.
I do have a bottom for it that I made from a empty can of peanuts and some scrapbook paper I will include for you until you can find a stand of your pleasing.
Completely made with shades of Pink and Ivory buttons, at the top I have made a yo - yo from some Heritage Pink Lace I found in my scrap drawer. I added a small chain of small pink faux pearls below the yo - yo and in the center you will see a gold tone heart with a pink cabochon in the center.
Used poster board for the cone and covered with left over felt, then formed the cone and glued together in the back (Hint it helps to tape to hold in place then glue) the rest I think you can figure out

Large Red Beaded Framed Tree
This is a huge framed tree measuring 23¾ inches by 19¾. The backing I used is a gold textured fabric, Red beaded necklace used for the border to outline the shape of the tree. The tree is decorated with a very generous amount of old Vintage Costume as well as Christmas Jewelry. Main colors used are Reds, Greens, Whites and some Gold pieces. At the bottom I have taken a round red doily and folded it in 4 quarters and formed a triangle shape to resemble a trunk.. At the very bottom you will see a cute little Teddy Bear..

Palm Tree Vintage Jewelry Framed Tree
I had such a good time designing this and spent several days combining the colors and finding the right pieces to make this a attractive piece for you.
The frame measures 15 X 12 I painted this wooden frame Green, used blue felt for the sky and a sand color for the beach, I braided sand color tiny Rick rack as the horizon line.
I embellished the bottom right hand corner with a combination of 4 broken sea shell earrings and 1 gold tone Dolphin.
On the left hand side in the bottom corner I added a large gold tone shell with a little Lobster hiding under the she.., On top of the shell I have pencil colored a Mermaid and added dimension under her to give depth.
The tree itself has many many vintage pieces including rhinestones, and some small sea shells. It is my hope you will love this as much as I do..
