I finished the tree tonight. The orange pumpkins have blinky light emitting diodes, shown in the inset. While not show-at-the-VAG art, this was fun to make in a Martha Stewart-eque craft kind of way. Not counting the Sally globe, the materials were less than $20.

The day after I wrapped the wire we decided to watch Sleepy Hollow out of creepy-tree inspiration.

It took me five years to get around to this after seeing the tree that inspired this. If you get yours done before 2010 you have me beat ;-)

I like it; are you planning on producing them for sale?

It crossed my mind, but pricing them to cover the labour would make them too expensive.

I bought two Hallowe'en tea-light holder chalice things at Zellers that had all the metal hangy bits.

Very lovely. You just gave me an idea to do a pine tree for X-mas.
