Christmastime: twig tree

wanted to show you the twig tree 
thank you M for the branches/twigs
they make a lovely arrangement



cute little strings of frosted pastel lights
and larger frosted peppermint drops

there are clear marbles inside the base to keep it from being too wobbly

the base is wrapped in a cute pastel reindeer paper





so glad that i painted the twigs white 
(i was getting a little paint-shy)
the white makes the branches stand out better against the tan wall paint

hope you got a little more holiday inspiration today
