I made a forest of these tiny felt tree pins last Christmas.
They're simple, fast, and cute--my favorite kind of craft. And, at just about
two inches tall, they're a great project for using up scraps of felt.
To make each tree, cut two triangles from the felt color of
your choice. I made the pins shown here in a mod palette of bright pink and
neon green, but I've also made them in traditional green and red. Decorate one
triangle with buttons, beads, sequins, and simple embroidery. Be sure to leave
a narrow border around the embellishments so you'll have enough room to stitch
the tree pieces together.
Be warned: these little trees are addictive. If you're like
me, you'll want to try all kinds of color and embellishment combinations.
