A Different Christmas Tree

What I like about antiquing/junking my way, is that I find some of the coolest creations and then, without altering a thing, I can pass them along to others.

I fell in love with these trees when I saw them. I think they are made from an old mattress or sofa.

I imagine someone could cover the entire tree in balls. Maybe spray paint it white or black or green. Drape tinsel garland around it.

I, personally, like it the way it is, the tree. What would you do to it?

By the way, I have 3 of these trees left, and they are for sale at Primitiques for $15 each. Come and get 'em! The old window screens are extra.

Happy Friday!

  2. I like that. Very simple.It would be cool with string of lights outside. In front of a shed door, in front of the house, what about in a window frame.

    Sonja, love the shed door idea!

    Margo, I have never "woven ribbon" (say that 3 times fast) through an old screen. Have you? Show me a picture.

    Joy, your exuberance is contagious!

    Welcome, LaurieAnna! I'm glad you found me. I've perused your blog several times. I need to come see you and your store.

    As is, I have one of these trees at my house...but, it has not found a home yet. Hmmm...Can't decide where to put it.
