My Primitive Tree
About a week ago I posted a white feather tree. Today I'm showing a small traditional green one. They make wonderful accent trees like Country Living shows below on a coffee table. To have a primitive look, just hang muslin, clay and organic ornaments.
The small ones I wanted last year were $50.00, so I just made one (partly pictured in the top photo)! It's far from perfect; therefore it's primitive! I also made these little 2-inch mittens myself to hang on it. The wooden star is store-bought. Have you made any of your ornaments?

It's not supposed to be perfect! The mittens are adorable too. Your own pattern? It is all so pretty. Thanks for sharing. Judi
ReplyDeleteAdorable!! Love the 'container' you used with it too! Perfectly prim!
ReplyDeleteGreat work! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteHappy new week.
I always mean to try for a second tree, but never seem to manage it. Perhaps one like your little coffee table tree would be possible.
ReplyDeleteI've made many of the ornaments on the tree and around the house - not so many in the last five years, but lots with memories of times at home with children.
once again you go to the head of the class!
ReplyDeleteHi Janean, love those darling mittens you made! I have two trees this year, but I'd love to have room for a kitchen one. I love primitive ornaments too, and really love that natural look. Hope you have a great week!

Hey hunni.
ReplyDeleteThanks for popping by and leaving me a lovely comment, they do make me smile. I got a lot of funny look's when I said I was going to wrap my parcels in brown paper this year but actually I thing it look's quite nice now it's all done.
I love your little mittens, they are so cut I just may have to give it a go some time. I haven't got many home made christmas decorations. I did make the little red and white angels in bobble hat's that you might be able to spot on my tree ( you can click on the photo to make them bigger) and I made the gingerbread and heart garland that's hanging along my stairs ( also pictured)
(((hugs))

ReplyDeleteHave a blessed Christmas.

You made your own tree? I am so impressed! I could not even begin to know where to start on that project.
ReplyDeleteThe mittens are perfect for a vintage tree.
Blessings,
Jo
Those mittens are just darling- I love homemade ornaments.
ReplyDeleteReally cute, your home looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteFar from perfect equals perfection in my book. Your tree is just wonderful! :-)

Would you mind sharing how you made your little tree? I've been wanting a feather tree for a long time but I'm not willing to pay the price for a real one and so far I've not even found a fake one I'm ready to spend $$ on. (I did find one last year but like a fool I thought it would still be there after Christmas and I could get it on sale - nope)
ReplyDeleteTina, i would be happy to show or explain how i made it. i'll put it on a new post in the next few days, k? the great thing is that it cost me "0" so...even with its flaws....yay!!
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL... I love all the primitive goodness...
ReplyDeleteNice post and this post helped me alot in my college assignement. Say thank you you for your information.
