Christmas is in the air apparently because decorations are already being sold! And we're else to go buy Christmas decorations then the dollar store! Hmmm also a good place for crafting .... Any ways at the dollar store they are selling Christmas decorations even though it's still SO early... And they have trees to make dioramas, perfect scale for minis and 2 trees for a dollar i know we're I'm spending some money, the ones I got come in the classic green pine tree and one is short ( around 2 minis tall) and the other is tall( around 3-4 minis tall) they are bendable and all I had to do to prep them is paint there bases brown and flock them, so far I have bought 4$ worth ( 8 trees ) and am planning on going all out and putting 25$ into these awsome little guys. They also come in snow covered at my store , GET THEM WHILE YOU CAN. -Silvia hurashu

Cool, thanks for thanks for the heads up. I don't have any conifers at all, so I'll definitely be picking up a few of these.

Hmmm, good call. I really do need some plant life to jazz up my woefully painted outdoors stuff. Of course, our version of a dollar store here in New Zealand is kind of different.. but 'store full of cheap crap' pretty much covers the universal theme, right?

I usually wait until they start selling the Lemax stuff at 40% off in Michael's. The trees usually need to have the snow covered up. I use black and olive drab spray paints to do this. I then cover the snow bases with dark brown paint and cover them with dirt flocking.
