VINTAGE CHRISTMAS VILLAGE VIGNETTE AND DIY WOOL WRAPPED TREES

Happy Monday Friends! 

I hope you all had a lovely weekend!

I always like to decorate the cupboard top next to our tv in the living room each year as we spend a lot of time in the living room. 

I wanted to make a little Christmas village, using vintage items. 

Including a house in a glass cloche.

Old books as risers.

Bottle brush trees.

A large milk can.

Crochet doilies.

Small shiny ornaments.

A grater as a tree stand.

And another grater as a tree cart.

I also made some DIY cone trees with yarn. 

For the insides of the trees I used polystyrene cones I purchased from Kmart. And card from manilla folders folded to form cones. I simply wrapped and hot glued on my yarn. Some contrasting yarn was used to create garlands.

And some fairy lights hung from the mirror adds a pretty atmosphere at night.
