Unfortunately, it was more difficult than I imagined. I had trouble getting the curves on the inside of the tree to cut cleanly, and I tired to sand the edges, but it didn't seem to help much. Despite the rough edges, I think it turned out okay.
I used the Certainly Celery Prints Designer paper. I chose the swirl pattern even though it has flowers and butterflies on it. I think it adds some movement to the tree, and a Holiday Whimsy feel.
I decorated the tree with mini ornaments and buttons from the dollar store and Michael's. I think it still needs some decorating, but I am not sure what right now.
The second tree I did isn't quite finished either. I followed the tutorial on SCS to make this tree using a green foam cone, and the Holiday Harmony paper. It still needs a tree topper, but I am waiting on my latest order before I can add a bow using the luscious Purely Pomegranate satin ribbon.
This ribbon is on sale buy one, get one free until December 15th (as supplies last). Contact me to place your order.

Love your trees! Yes I can imagine that top one was hard to cover. I keep seeing these neat wooden holiday decorations at the store that one could alter, but I have the same problem, too complicated because they have to many curves and such. You did a wonderful job on this one!!
