Here's an idea for creating the most earth-friendly, inexpensive, yet surprisingly pretty Christmas tree topper (or window or mantel decoration) ever. Simply cut one-half inch segments from paper towel and tp cardboard rolls with ordinary scissors and arrange them to create a large, eye-catching snowflake shape. Brush on or spray metallic paint on all surfaces to give your topper a gold, silver, or copper glow. It's so enjoyable to make something out of practically nothing!
