Village Christmas Tree revamp

My dining room table with the finished trees
 
The idea got stuck in my head once I saw these little trees at a store in Kentucky that we were shopping at.   I loved them but the price for me was too much to pay.   The ranged from $19-29 each.   I knew I could recreate for much less and I did!!!!!

Supplies needed
*Trees I picked mine up from Walmart in the Christmas village section.  Best prices I found.
The trees are only .75 to $2.00 each one
*Mini Ornaments assorted colors
*Pliers I needed these to pull off the ornament topper
*ModPodge
*Foam paint brush
*glitter I used a mix of gold and silver chunky craft glitter
* glue gun and glue sticks

Glue all ornaments on the trees.
Next take the foam brush and modpodge and stipple the glue on the branches in a tapping motion so that the modpodge doesn't clump up.  
Next sprinkle the glitter on the trees.
WARNING  you will have glitter everywhere!!!

I love them and creating them!!!!
