Michael’s was kind enough to send me a tree and a gift card to get me started, and I want to share the love with you.
We’ve had a great time getting started on the holidays with some early tree trimming.
I found an unfinished crate at Micheals and instead of a tree skirt, I am using this crate. I painted it, sanded it, added a little stain, stenciled a little saying on it and then attached some pom pom trim and some little wheels.
Michael’s will be featuring the trees created by creative bloggers on Facebook , Pinterest, Twitter and YouTube.
(And I’ll share mine with you next week).
In the meantime, check out Michael’s Holiday Lookbook online. It’s fun to look through the site and see what ideas you can get — and, to make your decorating easier, Michael’s chose four themed collections to help you get started:
