The New Christmas Tree inspires readers to turn a holiday standby into a stunning design statement - whether they're looking to add something new to their traditional Christmas decor or create a unique holiday tradition all their own. A closer look at each one-of-a-kind tree reveals the real heart of these designs - beautifully handcrafted ornaments, garlands, and more, from felted bumblebees to delicate paper flowers.
Some use traditional Christmas materials in novel ways, while others employ flea-market finds, household objects - even foodstuffs! - to create something entirely unexpected. Each chapter takes readers through the process of constructing a well-balanced tree that is rich in texture and dimension from topper to tree stand - selecting the appropriate lights, making and assembling the decorations, and adding the finishing touches that pull the look together; Also included are information on the fundamentals of tree selection, installation, and design; basic crafting techniques; sources for products, tools, and equipment; and care guidelines.
