Return To My Re-purposed Alternative Christmas Trees
November 19, 2014
First, the berry sieve tree from 2013.
Funnel trees are a favorite of mine. I have been making them with candlesticks, funnels, and glittery stars since 2012.
Another alternative tree from 2012, my yardstick tree.
This framed postage stamp tree is from 2014.
This framed button tree is still pinned pretty regularly.
This easy spool and ribbon tree is also from 2014.
Last year I made these grubby button trees from styrofoam cones.
This rolling pin display from earlier this year was easy to dress up for the holidays without much effort.
This book page tree was my most popular alternative tree ever!
I put together a kitchen vignette with a few of my alternative trees this morning.
What have you re-purposed as a Christmas tree?
Sharing is caring

How can I pick a favorite? Very, very clever! I'm going to share later on Facebook. Thanks for bringing your creations to VIP.
ReplyDeleteLove all of them!! I have a funnel tree and the trunk is an old sewing spool.

Those look so fun. Love your little tree vignette.
ReplyDeleteLOVE them all!! I have a couple new tree ideas in my head for this year...I'd better get busy before you think of them first,,,haha :)
ReplyDeleteToo cute! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI don't know if I can pick just one favorite, but the sieve is a contender.
ReplyDeleteCarlene, these are all very clever. Love each one!!! I have a metal tree that is flat and holds candles, but I bought it. I'm featuring another unusual tree on my current post that is made of antlers. You might want to take a look. You could probably recreate it. '-)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
Your alternative Christmas trees are some of my favorite projects in all of blog land :)
ReplyDeleteI copied your funnel tree and I love it so much it is one of my favorite decorations every year
Frankly, I love them all!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love them!!! Can't say that I've ever thought of doing something like that myself. the postage stamp one is the most unusual, in my eyes.
ReplyDeleteI loved them then and I love them even more now!
ReplyDeleteYou you are so talented love them all.
ReplyDeleteMaria
These are all great! I love your creativity, and all your upcycles!
ReplyDeleteI've been collecting metal funnels to make me a funnel tree. Their hard to find but I think I almost have enough.
