Hi Shiri,
Nice Tree...  I find it hard to make something look that organic using Lego.
Nice job.

Thanks! It took me a good two-three hours, because it kept falling apart until
I grounded it with some technic axles and pins.

I was sitting here scratching my head wondering how you made that
2x2 round limb sit horizontally from the main trunk, when I realized that
those
are technic pin holes in the trunk.  :-)

Yep! It's that grey half-peg-half-axle piece that holds the 2x2 rounds up.

Also, I see that you have two sizes of pine tree in some of the pictures.  Is
the small one the same one that Lego is now selling in bulk?  If it is, could
you tell me how tall it is in brick height?  Thanks.  I don't own any of
those,
but I might in a couple of weeks... :-)

No, the bigger of the two is the one that TLC sells in bulk. There's a yet-
bigger size, IIRC, which (I think) many people would want to see.

later,

(...) Actually, I think the one that TLC sells in bulk is the smaller of the two most common ones. Right next to the tree is says "Small Spruce Tree" and also, the small tree has six "layers" of branches, whereas the larger tree has nine "layers". (...)
