Red face Crochet Christmas Trees

OK, these are a bit of a mess, but you get the general idea... as some of you may know the theme for my cards this Christmas is trees, so I had a bit of a play...having done a lot of traditional stuff, I was getting a bit bored. The first one is in Perle sewing thread, with a felt pot and the second one is Double Knitting wool.
I shall now have to think what to do next

Marie, they're lovely

Have you tried making some felt padded ones with beads and glittery bits.

I brought a felt snowman kit once from QVC can't remember the lady's name something beginning with a B she's American and does lots of different felt kits.
Had a fab time making that up as the snowman was about five foot tall and he was covered with beads etc.
Had it hanging on the living room door every Christmas.

Thanks Anna, funny you should say about felt ones, I have just found a big square of green felt in my stash and was thinking it could be used for trees....
