It's more like 50 years old (I expect my finger slipped on the number keys when I wrote that!)but it's pretty scraggly. Every year we kids tell Mom she should get a new tree but she won't have it, she likes this tree. And she's right.The Gentle Beaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09703643437342355334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1612712053327214327.post-32062031563442650622016-12-12T15:53:01.957-08:002016-12-12T15:53:01.957-08:00I have had fun learning it myself!

I bought a couple of fine brushes and have begun doing more than just painting the filigree a single color, but doing some detailing.

That green is a perfect match to your beadwork. I love working color into designs with that paint and it works on so much more than just metal. I also love scrubbing it up a bit and letting the paint settle into the grooves. That is a special ornament and I am so glad you shared it with us! Enjoy the day!
