Christmas Notebook

When we last visited the little Putz church, it had been affixed to its base.

The next step was to add some bottle brush trees. I decorated the larger tree with a sunburst topper (a charm turned upside down) and a garland of gold beads. I cut a few beads off the beaded garland and glued them to the smaller tree.

I felt it needed more glam, so I added tinsel to the roof line and over the door and windows.

Hot glue made a good sidewalk. After it dried, I painted it white and sprinkled it with fine glitter.

I added a third bottle brush tree and embellished the church yard with gold colored bits and bobs.

I like the way it turned out. I wish I could find more of the little charms like the one I used as a star on the larger bottle brush tree. I spent time today searching the internet, but can’t find a source. I don’t know where I got the one I used. I’ve had it in my stash for years. It was in a set of six charms in three different styles. It was probably bought for scrapbooking.

Here are links to the other two posts about this little Putz church.
