Finally, in all it's washi tape goodness my vintage tree made out of newsprint and a tomato cage. Kind of looks like a carousel doesn't it? Don't you think it will look pretty in a vintage shop window?
My biggest headache was trying to use an edge punch for the bottom layer. This was a big mistake as newsprint does not have the weight and binds on the punch. If you want to do a fancy edge I suggest using computer weight paper and glue the edge to the newsprint.
I used silver and gold washi tape, round gold letter seals, tiny specs of parfait glitter tape and your basic accordion fold to make the medallions.
The top is based on the Martha magazine tree. I used the scraps from the bottom two rows cut them in half and stapled them in the middle.
I'll post a DIY next week with some tips and tricks.
I think this is my best Christmas project ever!
