I don't think it would have had the same affect with the green paint...now he wants me to put a star on it....NOT....he jsut can't get used to the sleek, clean, rusty look! lol

Oh my....you guys just cannot believe how much I have downsized! I used to have 13-15 trees up a year! We opened our house up for 5 years, for tour and charged a can of food for admission. Then donated all of the collected food to the Food Bank in our town. I'm liking the 'a little bit makes a big impact' look more and more. I used to have sooooooooooo much stuff. And as for storage? Most of this stuff is out (with the exception of the trees) and just used year 'round in a different way! Most of my closests are empty! Thanks again for the kudos!

Re: Champagne Glass Christmas Tree Pic With No Lights
The lights are just regular twinklelights, that came on the pre-lit tree. Then I added some of those big, clear outdoor bulbs and just strung them on the tree. I just kept the glasses hanging on the outside edges of the tree and the lights are strung towards the inside. So guess it's an illusion that there are lights 'in' the glasses!

posted: 1:16 pm on November 18thp.s. Sharon made me the potaoot masher and the little Emerson angel, hanging further down the tree. Then I tried my hand at the rest of the 'ornaments' (3 more grandkids and 4 pugs) and wala...the JM tree! Couldn't have done it without Sharon's patient instructions1!!

Re: Champagne Glass Christmas Tree
fellowjunker: That 'grate' thingy was actually made for me by Ki, in one of previous 'junk swaps'. It is actually a large solid piece of wood molding. JH says the littly thingy's on the front are old screen door latches. Ingenious, huh? It is one of my fav pieces to decorate with.
posted: 6:37 pm on November 17thjunkartqueen: I'll try and take a pic without the light, but the glasses really blend in with the green tree without the lights. I would have liked to have done another white tree with these glasses. I've received a lot of compliments on this tree, too.

Re: Bowling Ball Pumpkin
Wow! Thanks everyone for the great comments!!!
posted: 3:38 pm on September 26thGeo,
Really...this is sooooo easy to make.
As a matter of fact, my 4 year old niece crumbled up the pieces of foil for me!!! You can use tin foil, in small pieces, just fine. I used some old reeses foiled candy wrappers, too. I decopauged (sp?) it all on with just deco glue...many layers! Used a little spray paint. Oh, and a little brown glaze.
Next is just rows of hot glue. Then dab-painted the hot glue, too!
Let the whole thing dry. Then gave a really good coat or two or three of polyurethane! I painted it on so it would help seal any foil pieces that might have neglected to stick before!
The stem is a stick from my back yard. I hot glued this inside the finger holes. The spanish moss and leaves are all hot glued to cover the finer holes as well.
That's it! I used mine as an indoor decoration, but I think it would be fine sitting in a covered porch area...
Ok. I'm ready to see some bowling punkins out there!!!!
