Scrap Wood Christmas Trees
As a “junk” crafter I tend to use anything and everything to make that perfect creation, and since I cleaned the barn a few months ago, I have been challenging myself to craft with what I have available.
Mass producing for craft shows and regular sales has really stretched my imagination, but I am loving the new stuff I’m coming up with.
Scrap wood pieces that really didn’t seem to have much going for them all by themselves have been given a purpose.
This scrap wood tree stands about 4 feet tall.
Each branch and the trunk is a wood scrap I had available. Widths and wood types didn’t matter. I bought nothing new.
The star was cut from a salvaged piece of flashing and the hanging wire is from my stash of rusty baling wire.
I made several for a craft show coming up in a couple of weeks. I didn’t have the baling wire hangers on all the trees for this picture, but I have since fixed that.
If you are in Arkansas City, Kansas on November 16th, come shop at the Beta Sigma Phi Sorority Craft Fair.
Enjoy!
Love this! Hey, Cyndee. I pinned this on my Christmas Creativity board on Pinterest. http://www.pinterest.com/lanickers/christmas-creativity
Very cool Christmas idea.
Very cute Christmas Trees! Would love to go to a Beta Sigma Phi craft show – but I am in California – I also am a Beta Sigma Phi sister.
Very cute, Cyndee… I love that you are challenging yourself to use what you have! These trees are fantastic!!
Love, I want to make one!
