Still working!
Today I decided to create some life in the trees by attaching some cherry blossoms in one of them and autumn leaf in the other.
For this I needed two different napkins: one with tiny, pink flowers and one with big orange, red and yellow roses.
I tore out the small, pink flowers and then randomly tore out small pieces from the big roses, to create the look of autumn leaf.
(not planning to burn the leaf, just comparing sizes – hence the match.)
Then I glued the flowers and leaf to the trees like this:
They’re still a bit wet of the glue and will look better when dry.
If you’d like a tree with a feeling of winter there’s no use gluing white napkins to it, because white is so transparent and would just disappear into the background. What you can do is to gently dab some white paint on the twigs. It probably would look even nicer if you added some light, glittery silver to it as well, to get that frosty appearance! Oh now I wanna do that… But that will be a different painting. :)
