As I was in a Christmas crafting mode I decided now might be the time to use both of these. So, surprise, surprise, I did.
I had in mind to create two Victorian Christmas trees decorated with Victorian collage images. Shown above is one of them.
After putting the tree together I sponge painted them with green Christmas colors.
I added the Victorian collage papers to the four sides and glued a metallic star to the top.
I had been saving some old miniature multi-colored ribbon Christmas bell ornaments that my sister-in-law had given me years ago and thought they might work here so I inserted their hanging ties into the holes that had been pre-drilled on the tips of three of the four tree tiers and tied them to secure them to the edges of the tree tiers. Where necessary I applied some glue.
I added miniature red beads down the sides of the two wood tree pieces and then glued red metallic elastic trim as a garland around the tree.
Last but not least I glued different colored miniature beads to the center of the tree garland in each of the four tree tiers.
I was really pleased with the way my mixed media Victorian collage trees came out. They will be perfect for the Christmas holiday season. Plus, surprise, surprise I already know where I'm putting them....lol
