Bottle brush tree ornaments

Richele Christensen had the cutest ornaments on her blog a couple weeks ago.  I went out and bought little paper mache boxes so I could make some right away.

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.
