Holiday Project: Button Tree Candle Topper
By Lisa Russo
|
Ever since Tia posted her button tree in the Garden, I've been obsessed with making them! They're so simple and it's so relaxing to make them (and who doesn't need a little relaxation this time of year, right?).
So far, I've made an all-green one, a green/red/white and here's my all-red one. I plunked it on top of a red Yankee Candle for display (obviously, remove from the candle before burning!). Aidan even made one to give his teacher.
As for products, I used a 9" styrofoam cone (available at pretty much any craft store, I've found), multi-colored pearlized pins and corsage pins. The top is just large pearl beads. Oh...and every red button I could find!
Thanks for looking - and thank you, Tia! |
