Blinging the Christmas Tree

I bought these simple wooden tree shapes from the Christmas market in Kingston upon Thames


which were whitewashed (but I painted them solid white) and had a rough string through the hole at the top.

I decorated each one with sticky-backed ribbon and shiny stickers or gemstones,



then used the hole at the top for an LED light with a battery at the back, held on with a plastic coated paperclip (thus easy to disconnect when not wanted).



I had to photograph them at a bit of an angle as the LED light can be a bit savage.
And I couldn't show them to you before Christmas because I was making them as presents, but they are all given out now so here they are.
