Start with what I call a three prong tomato stand. I went to a hardware store for these. You will have to ask for them because this is not the season for planting gardens!
Tie the prongs together, I used a ponytail holder(could not find a rubber band in this house to save my soul)
Wrap with garland
I do not know the length of the garland but it is whatever length Walmart sells. I only used one swag. Sometimes the garland has a tendency to slide so I wrap a limb around the stand wire every chance I get.
Add lights
They have endless possibilities and I will probably wrap mine in mesh but wanted to post this before everyone finished decorating.
Merry Christmas!

ReplyDeleteHello! I am visiting from Met Monday, and I wanted to let you know what a FANTASTIC idea this is! Now if I can only find those tomato cages...
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I'm going to make one for my neice so she can decorate her own tree to have in her room... I'm betting it will end up being a pink and silver tree. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI would have never thought of it, great idea! Love the Pantry redo also.
