    Hello Dot, well done, it looks amazing 😍, you've made an heirloom for the future generations, it was very interesting to watch the process, mine is more like the lighter green feathers, I suspect the colour has faded a lot over the years, but the crepe paper gave the trunk a very similar texture to my tree, mine still had faint cigar smell when I was small, but its long gone now, I do remember some berries too but there were none left on it when my mum gave it to me over 30 years ago, I love the decorations you used on it too, especially the beads, mine had a string of coloured mercury glass beads when I was small, I wish I knew what happened to them, mum didn't give me her decorations when she gave me the tree, if or when you decide to change the base dont forgot to add the date you made it, that was people in the future will know how old it is 😊
    Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and Best Wishes for 2024 from Yorkshire, England 🇬🇧

      Hi Diane🤗 I used the brighter green on the mini tree but wanted to try the darker for the large tree. The website has other colors including white, red and black! I saw an all white one at an antique mall a few days ago. Thank you for reminding me to date it! ( I don't consider things like that). I love that your tree had an odor of cigars at first! ❤️ Thank you for sharing in my joy and Happiest of Holidays to you my friend! 🎄😍✨

    • @thedollcupboard
      @thedollcupboard  7 месяцев назад +1

      I'm so happy with my tree! A nimbler person should be able to twirl that feather around the wire rather than wrapping as I did. Alas, I was not able to do it. Merry Christmas Vicki! 🎄😍✨ (I still have a little present for you but would need to know how to get it to you 😉)

      I wish we could too, my Victorian one is in need of a few repairs, it's lost some feathers in places 😔 and all it's berries

    • @thedollcupboard
      @thedollcupboard  7 месяцев назад

      Hi Lorraine🤗 Not sure if the company ships overseas. Other than the feathers, all the other supplies could be easily found at a craft store. I'd be happy to help get feathers to you if you still want to make one in the coming year. 😁 It was very hard on my fingers 😆 Hope you and your family have the Happiest of Christmases🥰🎄✨

  • @taliscreativestudio

    Hi Dot! The feather tree looks amazing! 🤩🎄 You did a great job putting it together. A wooden fence at the bottom of the tree with a couple of putz sheep 🐑 🐏🐑 would add to the rustic style and make it look timeless. 😊 I have a little wood fence and a couple of sheep for my feather tree, but this year I only displayed the tree without the fence. Maybe next year, I'll find a place to display it. 😂 Of course, I purchased everything, as I have never worked with wood before, and it requires skill to do so! You're a pro at making all the little decor from different materials for your dollies, and they all look very happy. 😄 I wish you and your family a wonderful Christmas! 🎄♥️🎁☃️❄️

    • @thedollcupboard
      @thedollcupboard  7 месяцев назад

      Aw thanks so much Tali🤗 Love the idea of the fence with the sheep (I have lots of little Putz sheep). I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and I wish all good things for you in the coming New Year! 🎄🥰✨

    • @thedollcupboard
      @thedollcupboard  7 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks so much Tiny🤗 I noticed a few others say they hadn't heard of them before. Aren't they just splendid? The feathers are quite resilient and don't feel at all fluffy and soft, like I expect feathers to feel. Happiest of Holidays to you! 🎄🥰

    This a very difficult thing to do great technique .I love learning how to make vintage items. Really lovely tree thank you for sharing. I can just see someone making one of these with what they had, who ever thought feathers would look like branches 🤣🤣I love your vintage collection of Christmas such a great collection. How ever did you find the time to do all of this I’ve been so busy . It’s really well decorated. Merry Christmas too you ✨✨✨🎄🎄🎄💕💕💕

    • @thedollcupboard
      @thedollcupboard  7 месяцев назад

      Hi Grace🤗 I think authentic builders of these trees actually twirl the feather around the wire by spinning the wire. Try as I might, my poor fingers could not manage it. I have a ridiculous amount of vintage Christmas throughout my house. Some years I put out more, some less..this year was more! LOL 😂 I hope you have the very best Christmas and New Year ever my friend! 🥰🎄✨

    These feather Christmas trees are beautiful Dot, must make your finger tips sore, l think they would look amazing if the trunk was an actual tree branch with the bark still on it, that’s if a straight one could be found lol, sending you and yours Merry Christmas wishes, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧
