mini tree in a thimble

This is the original ornament made by my friend Cindy Wood.

I don't know how she made hers, but here is how I made mine. 

Paint thimble desired color, cover with decorative paper,  Paint white paint on the tree and glitter with fine rainbow glitter. Let everything dry completely. Cut out ephemera head and glue to top of tree.  Create wire circle, wire around base of tree.  Glue tree into pot, tie decorative bow. 

These are tiny but so adorable. Everyone just loves them. Use a photo of a loved one for a more personal touch.
