Holiday Copy Cat Challenge



Last year I put this together for a Christmas Cloche,
so this year I wanted to do it again, but I added silver glitter 
to my vintage bleached bottle brush trees.


That little prancing white reindeer
just stole my heart.


...and a teensy silver Shiny Brite.


on my mother's milk glass cake stand.



I'm joining in for Debbie's Copy Cat Challenge;
the kick off for the Christmas Block parties with At the Picket Fence.

    Great job Debra!! How do you bleach vintage trees? I have a whole flock of them, but would love them cream instead of green.
    Blessings~
