Vector01 Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Pulled some scraps out of the box and tried a xmas decoration. I used Travis's xmas tree pattern from the library, whipped up a base on Inkscape and raided my wife's craft supplies. I thought they would make cool place settings for the kids at xmas dinner. [attachment=1]xmastree2.jpg[/attachment] [attachment=0]xmastree3.jpg[/attachment] They measure 4"H X 4"L X 2"W. You could make the tree a little bigger and scroll in the kids names and just paint in the decorations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Very clever way of modding existing patterns. This is what makes scrolling exciting! You can easily adapt patterns to meet your own needs. Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vector01 Posted September 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Thanks all...Now my wife wants a bigger tree so she can put in some xmas lights Gotta start hiding these things so she doesn't get any more wild ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombatie Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Sorry I've been away, so I'm still catching up. I love your trees. Just shows what a little imagination can do. Graet work. Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helenm2807 Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Nice job Vector. I love them. I don't know about a kids' Christmas table - I think they'd look great on any Christmas table. I also suspect your wife wants you to make a bigger tree so she can use her own craft stuff lol H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vector01 Posted September 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Yep...I finished my "Honey Do" list. Finished the big tree today. Based on Travis's pattern but a bit larger. Made from 3/4" pine. Stands 11" tall with a 8.5" long oval base. [attachment=0]tree 2.jpg[/attachment] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
