The Tree - foliage in progress
Instead of making more leaves I filtered out the maple leaves from the bunch I already had made. There are 88 branches, so I figured 1-3 leaves per. Mid to late October often sees sparse trees with more leaves on the ground than on the branches.
I colored the stems on these leaves with a brown marker so they would blend in more with the branches. I'll leave the ones for the ground as is since those look better without the darker stem.
I glued them on individually, just enough to give The Tree a pop of color and some life. Having leaves on the ends of the branches also disguises the non-tapered ends resulting from the water putty process.
This old tree isn't dead or dying by any means. It's just ready for its winter slumber. zzzzzzzzzzzzz
