Jeweled Christmas Tree / DIY Christmas Crafts

[@GlueGunGurus]

As shown in the video I found a decorative antique frame and applied scrapbook paper to the background using decoupage glue, then added random jewelry and pearls with a glue gun. If you think it needs more glue I recommend using clear gorilla glue afterwards to secure more. I will add the links to the products in the subscription soon. Thank you for watching. I hope this was entertaining to watch and inspires you to create your own jeweled tree.

The cat...must be part of your/ her memories 🧡

[@GlueGunGurus]

My mother had four cats. She was the cat lady. What was really crazy, after she died three days later a blonde cat with blue eyes like hers showed up at the ranch and hung around by my side about a week before disappearing.

[@cherylcombs6520]

Love the way you layered them on! Absolutely beautiful!

СУПЕР!!!!!!!!

[@victoriapawlowicz9943]

What kind of backing are you using

[@GlueGunGurus]

The background is decorative scrapbook paper pasted on the frames existing back board with mod podge.

[@danid.1874]

I couldn’t get the pearls to stick with just a glue gun. I had to use E600, which was so stinky.

[@tamicoates1195]

What kind of background paper did you use? (The black part)

[@tamicoates1195]

Never mind I just read your description. Lol!

[@michellesisson2942]

Love everything but the cat?

[@GlueGunGurus]

Yeah, my mom loved cats so this was made in her memory, using her costume jewelry, to be put out every Christmas. She passed away five days short of Christmas day. I prefer pugs over cats and if making this for me personally I would used something else like a brooch or pendant than a gold plated cat bookmarker to make the tree stand. Thanks for watching Michelle.

[@notlost.justwandering.8600]

This blessed my soul. I imagine you could stay really busy creating these for others to cherish their loved ones. But sharing this idea freely to the world is an even greater gift. Thank you for being so selfless.

[@GlueGunGurus]

@notlost.justwandering.8600 Thank you too. I appreciate it.
