I finished my exhaustive to-do list yesterday,
so I thought I'd share a project I completed a few weeks ago.
I saw this tomato cage tree on Pinterest...
Seemed simple enough.
I picked up a few supplies...
tomato cages at Lowes
and a box of Christmas lights at a yard sale.
(I got 8 or 9 strands for $5)
Our Lowes had already put these
on the top top shelf for the winter
and only had one height available.
I would've loved to had varying heights.
I began to wrap...
and wrap...
and wrap.
At first, I wrapped really tight to the cage.
It took about 7 strands.
Too many.
And I really didn't like the look.
So I tried again...
I ended up using 4 to 5 strands on each tree.
And I used colored lights.
Marc loves colored lights.
The garland and the wreath
on the front porch have
only white lights,
so this was my compromise!
I still need to get a picture of the whole porch at night.
But these 3 little trees set off a beautiful glow!
