Thrift Shop Christmas Tree

I am in love with my thrift shop Christmas tree!

Last year I had sticker shock.

I was looking to replace a tree I had for many years but I could not believe the prices!

Thinking I would get a deal I waited until after Christmas hoping to find one.

But I was not happy with what was left and the prices were still too high for me.

I thought I would have better luck shopping in a thrift shop this year.

But most of them I was seeing were in bad condition and still over priced!

Then I found this one.

This is a good quality faux tree.

The branches look and feel like a real tree.

This tree also came with the ornaments.

I just added some pine cones and berries.

The cost of this thrift shop tree was 85.00 including the ornaments and a storage bag.

Which I think is an amazing price for a tree that looks brand new and is a good quality faux tree.

That sled was a recent find at antique shop.

Although it will not stay there,I will move it out on my front porch.

The sled I had out on my porch last winter was falling apart after keeping it out for so many years.

I bet you are surprised to see red ornaments.

But this room does not have pink and really works better with red.

I don’t like to over decorate a tree,I like to keep it simple.

My skirt is not what I had in mind.

I started to make a skirt and well,it did not turn out.

It was taking to much of my time to figure it out,I will put it away and try again next year.

Since I needed a skirt I decided to add my fur rug at the bottom and use it as a tree skirt.

I am hoping to start adding my fresh Christmas greens in the next week.

I will be taking lots of photos and share my home via tour too!

I am also working on something to share with you as part of The Scoops Handmade Christmas.
