Martha does it again with a wonderful craft DIY that's perfect for us miniature lovers. These fantastic realistic faux Douglas firs would make great Christmas Trees for your dolls house and or miniature roombox scene. Its amazing what some chenille stemmed pipe cleaners can become. I can see some scented with essential oils that smell like real pine trees.

Cut out a circle of red scrap fabric or felt for a skirt, and wrap tiny blocks of wood with additional green and red chenille stemmed pipe cleaners for bows. You can find the smaller stem pipe cleaners for the bows on the gifts and the candy canes on the tree or make ornaments from Fimo, Sculpey, Premo, Kato, Cernit, Polymer Clay or Air Dry Clay and create tiny balls and other ornaments for your tree from beads.
A fun project if you make one and use it anywhere I would love to see what you have done with yours, how you have decorated it, etc..
Cre8ively Yours
