For the next few days I will concentrate on the Christmas Theme. When you read this it will be about 2 months until Christmas and maybe a little encouragement is headed your way.
When I joined my first miniature group, nearly 3 1/2 decades ago, one of the things I wanted to do was do a domed Christmas tree. With the experienced ladies in this group, they were inspired that I wanted to do it. They found the pattern for the tree. A dowel rod and lots of greenery. Did that and then I was into decorating it.
It was a piece that I fell in love with and I still pull it out every Christmas to share with friends and totally and completely enjoy looking at it.
The tree is 1/12 scale and about 10 inches tall. 
This picture focuses on the paper rope chain lot kids do in school. It is 36 inches long and took me over a week to make it. Absolutely the most time consuming part of the project. 
Lots of toys and packages at the base of the tree. It's going to be a very nice Christmas.
The little boat at the base was purchased in the St. Louis Airport and was made in Germany. I paid a whopping 70 cents for it. 
Look at the tiny trucks next to the boy. Lovely small trucks.
Come back tomorrow for more Christmas cheer.
