Customizable Upcycled Rake Christmas Tree Alternative
Looking for a creative and eco-friendly Christmas tree alternative? Consider repurposing an old rake into a unique and festive custom Christmas tree alternative of your own!
Supplies:
Instructions:
- Hold a metal rake head against some boards to ensure it fits.
- Cut background boards, along with 2 support boards, measuring the width of your base. My wood boards measure: 3 - 5.5"wide x 40" long / 2 - 3.25"w x 16.25" long / Overall size: 16.25" wide x 40" tall.
- Position the support boards near the top and bottom of the baseboards, then assemble with screws.
- Paint all the boards in Fusion's Ash.
- Dry fit the rake, branch, bucket and star on the boards, then attach each piece with screws or glue.
- Hot glue ornaments onto the rake.
- Using the wood handle of a small paint brush, dip in Casement (white paint), then dot the sky around the tree to resemble a snowfall in a night sky.
- Display your Christmas tree alternative indoors or out!
