Christmas Topiaries

I am just not around much in the fall.  I run a small daycare in my home and I have all teachers, so, I get the summers off to spend with my kids.  That is also when my kids sports get really rolling, and, I am on either a football or softball field when not with the little ones.  I know it is late, but, I did want to share this little craft I did for Thanksgiving.  

It looked nice on my Thanksgiving table.  Sorry, I didn't even get pictures this year.  My husbands dad went into the hospital the day before our Thanksgiving dinner, and, I just feel blessed that we even had one.

It was very easy.  I just glued hazelnuts and almonds to a couple of styrofoam forms.

I made another hazelnut tree and added some red berries and a raffia garland.  Oh, and I but a little Spanish moss to hide some of the gaps.

I popped some pine cones into the flower pots I had some candles in and it makes a nice natural table scape.

I cut a piece of burlap for a runner.  I think I need to fray it a little. 

Very easy and inexpensive.
