Old Book Christmas Tree.


Anyone who knows me knows I adore old book paper and when my Mom showed me the tree she had made from an old book I asked her if she would make one for me. She made me a nice full one from an old book and I decorated it with wooden snowflakes (from the December kit Amber Snowflake), red pearls from Kaiser Craft, burlap ribbon, punched snowflakes and some wooden buttons. It came together quickly and I love how rustic and soft it looks.

Isn’t it sweet!

I can see this as the base for a pretty little angel too! You can find instructions on how to create the tree here.

Have a wonderful week!
