Cone Topiary Trees

Recently I made a topiary cone tree using sticks hot glued onto the paper form.

You can see that post here.  I have added 2 more trees to my collection. 

I made one with small pinecones using a styrofoam form painted dark brown and a glue gun.

And I made one by wrapping twine around the paper tree form and hot gluing it in places.  I also dry brushed a little burnt umber paint onto it to darken it up.

I filled my wooden bowl with some pine cones and green Christmas balls.

And I hung some balls with ribbon and tape from my mirror.

Are you taking down your fall décor and putting up Christmas yet?  I can’t believe we only have a few more days left in November.  Where does the time go?
