We all have our own special memories of decorating the Christmas tree, culminating in the placing of that special "tree top" decoration, be it fairy, angel, or reindeer. Now you can create your own special tree top decorations based on Emma Hardy''s beautiful designs. Ranging from a fairy that a child can make to a three-dimenional glittered star, there is something for everyone. The book has 25 projects with step-by-step instructions for making each decoration, whether you want to follow tradition with an angel or star or try something different--for exampel, a velvet bird, beaded berries, a knitted reindeer, or pine-cone snowflake--along with ideas for recycling and incorporating old decorations into new ones. You will be inspired by what can be achieved in very little time, so get crafting--and create your own special tree topper.
