That is the new phrase my daughter says when she really likes something. And yes, the "i" in beautiful is missing because she says it as "beautful." She was super excited about these trees and even had to sleep with one!
I was totally inspired by
this picture. Aren't hers awesome? For mine, I just bought all these trees at the Dollar Store and hot glued on felt and fleece.
Then I
hand made the pom poms from my yarn collection and glued them on by the embroidery thread I used to hold all the yarn together.
I decided to use them to spruce up my blog a little for the Christmas season. Hope they add some happiness to your day!

the trees are so cute and happy!
Your daughter is right, they are beautful! I want to try them!!!! Thank you for inspiring me with your blog, been following you a while, first time to comment!
Your daughter is right, they are beautful. I think it's great when people think Christmas can be bright instead of the traditional subdued colour scheme.
wow.. they are so cute! i love all the colors.
Those are the most cheerful little Christmas trees I've seen! How fun.

So cute! I might try these with some cardboard cones that my grandmother gave me. I think they were thread spools or something.

Soooo cute! Love the new banner!
Wow! You have been busy. I love the trees and will have to make some too---my kids will adore them. Do you have any tips for cutting out the felt pieces?
Gorgeous! I've been meaning to buy some of those cones and do some wet felting with wool on them. You've inspired me to finally just do it.
"Do you have any tips for cutting out the felt pieces?"
I just cut them longer than I needed rectangular pieces and trimmed them at an angle at the end. Then I wasn't trying to figure out some awkward shape for it to fit.
You're really gift-talented craft-er and mom!!
It is lovely.
These are wonderful! My 4 year old son took one look at the picture and told me I just had to make him some!
drool! Oh my, I love the shades of colours. I can just jump in your felt pile.
thanks for sharing
I just found your blog and I adore your trees. Your blog header looks so pretty.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these. I hope I can whip up a few to get myself in the holiday spirit. Thanks for the share!
Hi
I'm Monica to Milan Italy
December 12 i will do an article on my blog where I talk about your idea
Bye
Moni
They really ARE beautful! Loving the new blog design too.
WOW! I am the most NON crafty person, but these actually look manageable for me and my kids. Alas, I am still at a loss for what trees you're talking about from the dollar store. Is it sad that someone with no crafty intuition is even commenting on your blog??? You still inspire me :-)

The Dollar Tree near us had all these decorated cone shaped trees. Some were covered in beads, some were wire cones covered in garland type material, and the third kind had this multi-color plastic stuff on them. I just glued over them. Really, any kind of cone shape could work. You could even buy cone shaped styrofoam.
Absolutely gorgeous! I'm planning on creating a couple of them, too! Just hope they turn out half-as-pretty. Hehe!
I shared your post on my blog!
These are so fun! I'm going to add them as a "craft activity" on our Advent Calendar. My girls will be so excited when they see the tag for that days activity. Thank you!
Wonderful!!I love them very much!!They are happy!
Your banner with the felt trees made me (forced me) to bookmark your blog before I had even read anything.
wow!! your trees are amazing! Its funny because I never would have thought to glue the felt onto an actual tree. Yours are probably much more practical than mine. good thinking!
You were featured on apartment therapy's re-nest blog!! http://www.re-nest.com/re-nest/diy/colorful-felt-holiday-trees-happy-together-133197#comments
