frogs_of_warMy latest trees:
The color came out wrong. The yellow table is actually unstained wood. The branches on the little blue tree were too wide at the base and not long enough at the top, so I tried a different technique for the next two. The bigger two trees were made using the same ratios. I've decided the pink is a cherry and the red is an oak. From base of the tree to top leaf the trees are 1½", 2" and 3". The tallest tree took three hours to bead and wrap, but then only an hour or so to shape (that is the fun part).
This gives you size (that is the mint tin I wrapped the wire - the long way round - for the two inch tree):
