This one has german glitter glass on the box. I colored the tree using Iced Spruce Distress Spray. I used glossy accents on my craft sheet and dragged the tree around in it. After I had the glossy accents on the tree I used distress rock candy glitter to make the tree sparkle. The ornaments are vintage mercury glass beads.
The rest of the boxes I covered with Distress glitter. The trees were all decorated the same way, but I used Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist in Caper Green to color this tree.
For the pink tree I used Pickled Raspberry and Worn Lipstick Distress stains.
So much fun. They will add a ton of sparkle to the tree.

Hi Jess. Your tree ornaments are absolutely darling! They remind me of Bethany Lowe ornaments...so vintage and beautifully done. I love all of your colors you've chosen to make your trees out of and the cute little boxes and you have put at the bottom of them. You've done a gorgeous job on these and I so appreciate your sharing them with all of us at CC3C. They really add to the Christmas spirit of this challenge! <3 Candy
