I'm getting SO many faves on this piece that I can't keep up with the thanks and replies, Thank You in advance!!

Tree 7, "Pearls of Wisdom", also for my grandma :D

Tree: (2) 24Y spools of size 28G gold wire, 100-110 in 12 inch strands; size 11 pearl colored Chech glass seed beads.

Base: a pillar candle holder; size 8 black Chech glass seed beads; regular clear glass marbles with a pearl or rainbow swirl finish on them, found in the floral section.

Tools Used: Needle nose pliers, flush cutter, tape measure, Modge Podge, and a few Q-Tips.

I found a tutorial for the tree by searching online; the outcome varies based on the materials, and your imagination:)

All tools and materials were purchased at Hobby Lobby, but can also be found Micheal's; most but not all can be found at Wal-Mart.

The light helps to bring out its details and beauty." Pearls of Wisdom by ~Anya-Lyssa ( Suggested by `Emerald-Depths and Featured by `KubusRubus )

Nice! Very well done tree, but what really makes it for me is the "potting" media.

Wow!
This brings back old memories...
My grandma had a landscape made out of pearl-trees and stones.
Once, my aunt showed me how to make this, but I never made an entire tree...

You should try it! They're easy and once you've made one, it's like Lay's potato chips! lol They do take some time, a few hours at first, but after you get past that, they're so easy!! I have a tutorial up on how to make this style. I can make 3 different styles now :) My newer trees are all made made in the newest style I learned, since it's MUCH quicker and easier, but I recommend starting in this style, as it would give you a better understanding of how the wire behaves.
