qruthie's Christmas Tree - Items Needed - Updated

[qruthie]

Here's the corrected list of items needed. The original list will work but it turns out I was able to use 3 gingerbread blocks in place of 3 of the green gum drops. Perhaps it will make it easier for some of you to get the pieces. I'm leaving the original list here too since it does work and some of you may have already gathered up those items. Sorry for the confusion.

7 gingerbread blocks (or gum drops - these are not seen when the tree is finished)
6 flat green mints
10 green gum drops
10 gingerbread roof corners
1 standing green mint
1 red gum drop
9 Alice in Wonderland paint cans

Here's (the original) list of the items needed to build the Christmas tree from my contest room. I hope to list instructions for building it soon.

4 gingerbread blocks (or gum drops - these are not seen when the tree is finished)
6 flat green mints
13 green gum drops
10 gingerbread roof corners
1 standing green mint
1 red gum drop
9 Alice in Wonderland paint cans

These are the items I used except I used a red soldier in place of one paint can. Other items can be used as decorations and you can choose your own colors for the candy pieces. The important items are the 10 gingerbread roof corners and having 13 gum drops of the same color since those show between the roof corners when the tree is finished. 4 of the flat mints show at the base of the tree so it would be best to use the same color.

I will help people build the tree when I have time as long as it isn't for a contest room.

Thanks for the list of items qruthie. Like I said in your room a day or two ago this is the best tree design I have seen in vmk.

I went through to make sure I had enough of everything to build your tree - it's amazing! I never feel very creative in my rooms, and this tree will help a lot. Thanks!

I love the tree, thanks for sharing the 'recipe'

 

[CinderellaWannab]

You are so sweet to share! Just like you! Can't buy stuff anymore but want to make one next year. I thought they would keep the gingerbread stuff for awhile. Thank You Q.

Thanks for posting this Q there was no way I could remember all the items you were listing for me.

I tree looks amazing good luck in the contest.

I used the list provided to build a tree in a room however when my contest room loaded tonight, I'm pretty sure I saw 7 gingerbread blocks instead of 4. I'll get this straightened out and will update or confirm the list.

Sorry if I messed up

Best. Tree. EVER.

The paint cans aren't still buyable, are they? I haven't paid much attention to the ALR stuff since I started playing.

Yes paint cans are still in store.
