It's beginning to look like Christmas

 I made my third wooly pine tree today.  This time I used an idea from  Wool Workers Magazine and used glue and glitter to add a snowy effect to the tips of the branches.  I used an old paint brush to brush glue along one edge of the wool strip.  I then added glitter, I love the glitter that I used, it is fromMichael's.  It is Reflections from the scrapbooking section.




After letting it dry, I then cut the strips to form the individual branches.  Most of the instructions I have found, say cut the strips at 1/4 inch intervals, I cut my much smaller than that. 
 Here are some of the branches before they are attached to the tree.
