Christmas Wooden Tree
When I was in Pittsburgh in November, my friend that has a store gave me a wooden tree. I didn't do anything with it until last week. I went to my stash of rusty metal things and pulled my bag of Scrabble letters out and the wooden tree became this.
I started off with the scrabble letters. I didn't want to glue them on so I used glue dots. They will keep them on but I can take them off if I want to. The blue chips are from bingo numbers, they are for the free spots.
I added an old rusty hinge and a door knob plate.
For the star, I had a 4th of July one and just sprayed painted it. I used a hammered brown paint.
It is a great addition on my lanai.

My dad made the same tree on a stand for all of us and we started a Jesse tree - each of us making an ornament for everyone's tree ever year (or buying if you lack talent like me).
ReplyDeleteWow, that is a great idea. What a special gift that keeps on giving.
DeleteHave a lovely Christmas.
