[cbeadies]

Great tree beads everyone. I had a go at making one but it was sooooo bad that it got splatted in the water jar in frustration. 
I do have some Christmas trees I made last year....would they count?? Maybe I should have another go at a proper one!

I esp like your apple tree Rita - all rosy and harvest-y!

[Shirl]

Well, I have been lurking on the forum for a few weeks now and I have decided to join in and do this competion. All your beads are great

I have never made a focal bead before, but I made one today especially for this competion and would like to enter it, but dont know how to get my photo on here!

Could someone please help me?

Here is my "Tree in the winter sunset"

This is my first ever focal bead and the first time I have posted a photo on here. 

Sorry for the bad photo but I am not good with cameras!

[MadelineBunyan]

some good firsts to have I reckon! like those colours together!

[Magpie]

All these trees have inspired me to get my act together and have a go (I made one ages ago but it got too cold as I was faffing with it and broke horribly), they've all been trimmed and have short stubby branches, can't seem to get the thin bits to stick.

[MadelineBunyan]

nice trees people!

I decided not to make a typical tree bead...



mine is trying to escape somewhat!
I also made some leaves with my new leaf mashers!

Wow, Madeline - your tree bead is really wonderful   - and loving the leafy necklace

[Margram]

I loves trees  . This is my second attempt, will def. try to make more...
   

Made these quite a while ago but I used nail varnish to mask the tree before etching the bottom of the bead and couldn't find the nail varnish remover and I've been struggling with photobucket this evening, grrr The dark leaves are Hades and Ekho. I think the other one is silverbrown.

I love trees!

Ok, so it's not a bead but it is a tree and I confess it's not finished yet

Really lovely tree Krysia - has a Scandinavian fell about it.
