My kind of Christmas Tree






As you know, I'm always looking for new ideas of how to use my huge stash of amazing vintage paper. I took on the project of creating a little Christmas tree from old sheet music a couple weekends ago. I cut tons of strips of paper, glued sparkly red glitter on each piece, and curled the ends up. I glued them all around a paper maiche tree form, starting from the bottom. It took in total about 7 hours to finish but I just LOVE it!
