I love your stained glass and the snipet, boy if that is how you decorate under your tree at home can you adopt me? I think Christmas must be very busy there! Nice work and thank you for sharing.

All the projects are lovely/ I understand the snipped Christmas tree but are the gifts cut outs or did you have a pattern. My kids and I would love that tree and need to bookmark this site so maybe one day this can become another project.

I got the idea from Cindy Walter's Snippet Sensations Christmas decoration book. I actually did a class with her when she come out to Australia. You just apply Steam a seam 2 to the back of the fabric and then kind of cut pieces to make the shape of the tree. When you are happy with the shape you then iron it down.

I cut each gift individually. I was only going to do a few but as I was sick I used to watch tv and I got carried away. I just loved making the tree. In Cindy Walter's book she had a shadow box around her tree and that is how I got the idea. She didn't have as many gifts around her tree. But I had plenty of time. I added some christmas buttons around just to add to it a bit. I also did some creative bobbin work on the tree with some gold thread. It ended up an expensive project but I am so glad I compleated it like I did.
