Sustainable, DIY Mini Christmas Tree
In these days leading up to the holiday break, when so many of us want to welcome that festive feeling without spending money or contributing to overflowing waste bins, this is a simple, lovely, adaptable DIY / craft activity for both adults and little ones: Mini Holiday Trees!
Just pop over to your local tree farm / vendor and ask if they wouldn’t mind you scooping up some remnant branches and stumps from around their sawing station.
There might already be a hole in the slices of the tree trunks from display stands at the vendor. If not, just drill one or more in which to pop branches, either all together (like a shallow vase), or independently (like a floral frog).
Add a battery-operated or rechargeable faux-candle or light strands for a hint of safe glow, along with leftover ornaments, earrings or tags and voila! You have a compostable, ever-changable, mini holiday tree for festive flare around your home and garden.
Happy holidays!
