A good old fashioned cheery Christmas song to sing along with on a rainy Thursday afternoon.
Being somewhat of a semi-invalid this past week has given me lots of time to surf the web and I found some really sweet Christmas trees that have been upcycled from "junk" and odds and ends that you already have at home. I love the idea of making a unique tree and spending little or no money.

recycled magazine and junk mail trees

odds and ends of old sweaters felted and stacked to make a tree.

toilet roll tree ( and you thought they just made good horns for the kids)

This handyman's tree is interesting. Not sure I would want it in my house, but it did take ingenuity and in the interest of fair play I thought I should have one that was created by a man. (maybe this is why women do most of the decorating)

They are all so cute! I especially love the one made of Christmas cards!
ReplyDeleteThe felt and sweater one has got to be my favorite. Love the visions some people have.

I love that folded paper tree. I may have to make a couple.
ReplyDeleteHow cute to make them from Christmas cards! So many great ideas!
ReplyDeleteI KNEW there was something that could be made from toilet paper rolls! I made the magazine tree many years ago. I love the Christmas card tree. So many cool projects.
