    When do we open our junk Christmas tree store? Hopefully not in July. I’d put yours in my kitchen window right along side my tomato cage tree.

    I’ve come across some unusual trees, but I think this one takes first place for creative and unique! I never in a million years would think to create a Christmas tree out of Christmas tree stands! It’s so fin, and looks great 🙂 I think I need to pick up some of this paint…

    Kelly, this is so cute! Vintage tree stands are all the rage right now, and this makes them look even better! I love the fact that you, Heather and I all used the word “bling” in our posts this time. Hehe! You can see where our thoughts are this Christmas season.

    That is so darn cute, Kelly! You’ve created something awesome out of something that was always a “bone of contention”; trying to get the tree standing straight in one of those contraption always brought a bit of “Scrooge” to the table…..lol!

    I guess it is true that you can have a true Christmas no matter where you are! This is a very clever unique way of building a tree. I think it would be cool to make a tree out of a new type of material each year!
