Hello my friends !
True confession- I love bottle brush trees !
Here are a few that I have found over the years.
I rarely pass them by especially single trees.
I needed to remove the wood base.
Just a little twist is all you need.
I save them for another time.
The trees easily stand in the faucet handles.
I used the back side.
I had this idea in my head because I thought the handles
looked just like my vintage Victorian tree stand.
What do you think?
Same idea with old door knobs.
To make a hinge tree-
I opened it to stand pointing up.
I used a piece of bailing wire starting at the base
and wrapping around to the top
where I formed a star.
I only found a single hinge, but I will be on the lookout
for another.
Next week I will probably share a mini Christmas tour!
Thank you for stopping by, I know you are busy!!!
