felt Christmas trees

I took a day off to enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday, but now that I'm back, I'm going to start sharing Christmas crafts with you. (I have always disliked it when a site or show demonstrates a craft just a few days before the relevant holiday, leaving not enough time to gather materials and make the craft in time for gifts or decorations.) Today's link is for these precious felt Christmas trees:

The construction is very simple. The blogger shows the sewing thread with a contrasting color so you can see the stitches. When you are making them, use thread that matches the color of the felt. The cotton stuffing is both for shape and to prevent the hanging thread from slipping through the felt cones. These trees would be cute in lots of different colors. The felt ornaments could be just glued on instead of sewn, or instead of felt for the star and ornaments, buttons or sequins might be nice.
