I've found I like the challenge of creating different alternative Christmas trees and this year is no exception. I started the challenge by looking for suitable materials that I already had on hand.

I found a bunch of mini wood crates that I had gotten at a conference that would prove to be the perfect starting point along with some leftover wood dowels (from last year's tree) and a well aged tree branch!

Fall and Halloween decorating is in full swing. We're all ready for a little change of season and a little fall decor both inside and outside of our homes. In partnership with the Home Depot, we created a DIY pumpkin topiary for fall that can be swapped out for a spooky Halloween tree complete with DIY ornaments! 

Head to the Home Depot to see the full video on how to build the topiary. In this post, we'll go into more detail on how to deck out your Halloween tree.

Up to this point, we've always shared projects from start to finish, but not this one! We're showing the build here, but we are collaborating with our YouTube friend, Christina from Pretty Distressed, who will be sharing the finish.

Christina searched the internet and found a project from Pottery Barn's website to duplicate. It's a rustic Christmas tree that has been discontinued for many years. This is our interpretation of the design using readily available and inexpensive paint sticks. 

Take a look at the video to see how it all came together!

When Surebonder asked us if we would like to participate in challenge as a way of promoting their new cord-free detail hot glue gun, we couldn't say yes fast enough! We've worked with Surebonder on a number of occasions and use their products in a lot of our projects, so we knew this would be a good fit!

For the challenge, they sent us a curated box of "stuff" which we had to use at least seven of the items in some creative way. Below is the assortment of "stuff" we received! We decided to make the pallet wood the star of the show and developed an idea from that.

The humble supplies below came together into one of our favorite projects ever! When we spotted those flame light bulbs- we just knew we had to do something with them. At the time of purchase, we had no idea what to do with them, we just knew we had to use them!
​
With a little bit of engineering, styrofoam, melamine, toy bricks, and Quikrete mortar mix, we were able to cast the perfect faux fireplace! Take a look at how it came together.
