This year my Christmas Tree started to collapse, despite my efforts I was not able to keep it together until Christmas day so I decided I would repurpose it.
You don't need to have a single creative bone in your body to do this trust me.
As it was a 6ft Tree make sure you check out the other parts/posts.
Materials
Tools
The top of the tree
A decorative pot
Styrofoam
Some pebbles or a small rock as weight (if needed)
Fairy lights and decorations (optional)
Ryobi utility knife
Steps
Step 1
1/4Measure and cut circles in Styrofoam the same size as the pot. I used the pot as a template to indent the Styrofoam then used the Ryobi utility knife to cut the circles out. (cut as many as you need I used two)
Step 2
2/4Pierce a hole in the centre with the rod from the top of the tree.
Step 3
3/4Place them in the pot and stick the top of the tree in the hole. Add weight if required.
Step 4
4/4Fluff and style branches, decorate and enjoy.
Ok, you have convinced me. I am going home and at the very least put some Christmas lights on my trees!
I really think the greenery factor makes a difference to the room, and again, thats a nice reuse of the tree.
