Advent Calender #1 - Cotton Wool Christmas Tree

I thought it would be fun to have an advent calender here on my blog, so for the next 24 days i am going to publish a photo of one of my christmas items each day. If there is anything interesting to say i will add a little description or a tutorial, otherwise it will be just a wordless picture.

Let's start with this DIY Cotton Wool Christmas Tree; a spontaneous project while sitting on the sofa and watching TV in the evening.

It is made from a piece of used cardboard that i turned into a cone shape. I secured it with lots of sticky tape, applied glue all over the cone and wrapped around strips of cotton wool, a golden ribbon and a wire embellished with red stars.
Lastly, i glued on a couple of golden stars and put a straw ornament on top of the tree.

That's it. Quick and easy.
