Mini Junkin Christmas Tree -

2k{icon} {views}

Christmas trees are my favorite Christmas decoration of all decorations seen throughout the Christmas season. Over the last few years my main Christmas tree has changed themes and colors. I’ve had red & white, blue & silver, blue & white, brown & maroon and this year my tree is decorated in black, brown, and maroon. Love the color scheme this year.

Do you stay with the same colors or do you change it up every year?

For those of you that just dropped by, we bought a new home last spring and we are totally loving it. Well until it was time to decorate the tree. Ugh! Our living room and dining room is to small to set up the 9ft tall Christmas tree because it’s around 5ft wide at the bottom. I was totally bummed to say the least. We borrowed a few trees from family and it just wasn’t working for me. My loving hubby decided it was time to purchase a new tree so off to purchase a tree. We found a beautiful 7.5ft flocked Christmas tree which will fit perfectly in our living room. Loving it!

What do you do with extra Christmas trees? Do you have trees lurking in your storage space? I needed a cute, fun and simple centerpiece for my dinning room table and what better decoration for the table then a cute junkin Christmas tree.

For the base of my tree I pictured Frosty’s hat. On the Internet I’ve seen cute hats created from tin cans and what a great place to start. First, I spray painted a large can with flat black spray paint and then wrapped ribbon around the bottom part of the can. I then added some jute for the country junkin look.

For the bottom part of the hat I cut a cardboard circle and painted it black.

I grabbed the top section of a spare Christmas tree and inserted it into open end of the can. Hmmm cute! Now all it needs is a few little homemade junkin ornaments.
