SUPER QUICK & EASY DIY WINTER WONDERLAND TREES - SHABBY CHIC FARMHOUSE DOLLAR TREE CHRISTMAS

Hello friends, welcome to my channel, this video is from Sunday morning. It snowed pretty much all day Saturday, so I'm here shoveling a little. I have a small area here for my little dogs to go in because Bailey is very short and he is very long. beyond their belly, so you have to get a little path for the dogs. You can see how much is on my table set here. We basically have a little over a foot of snow. Some of my

tree

s didn't even get a chance to change color. however, my crabapple

tree

here lost its leaves very early this year, but it looks pretty in the snow and my turning jigs in the corner look beautiful in the snow.

What better day than to do some crafts, so I did some crafts all weekend. and I thought I'd make some DIY Winter Wonderland

trees

that are

super

easy

to make, so let's get started. The first DIY I'm making is some snowflake trees. Now I bought these snowflakes on Amazon, but you can get them anywhere at Hobby Lobby Walmart. even the Dollar Tree now I want to cut out the little opening here because they are for ornaments so I'm going to cut them all out now that I have them all done these are the sizes I'm going to use to make a tree I have two of each of the sizes that come in the package so there are five different sizes and these are going to be for the top and I'm going to show you what I'm going to do with them so I grabbed some wood. beads that I have and I have different sizes that I'm using and I just painted them with a little bit of white paint and I'm going to hot glue them in between the snowflakes.

I'm going to use my largest wooden beads here for the largest ones. sizes and then I'll slowly go up to smaller sizes, okay, let's finish the rest of this tree. I'm going to make four of these trees. I'm just going to show you one of them how to do it and I'm amazed. the snowflakes so they don't line up perfectly I just want to make sure I use a lot of hot glue here, so I'm using my largest glue gun. You can see I have some smaller beads here as I get to the smaller ones. snowflakes that one doesn't stick where I want it to be there let's go ahead and place the last two snowflakes and then I'll show you how I'm going to make the top of the tree now here are the two smaller snowflakes that come in the package.

I'm just cutting this little piece here and I'm going to do the other one too, but then I'm going to cut this one in half, okay, and then I'm going to I'll be gluing each half to the sides here, so we're going to make this more dimensional and this It's going to be the top of the tree, okay, like this, and then I'm going to paste it on the top right here. in the middle, okay, I think it looks really nice to have it that way on top and it needs to have a support, so I just have these wooden spools, thread spools, they're for crafts.

I painted it white and I'm I'm just going to hot glue this here and you can put things in between your trees like ribbon or some lace, but I'm going to leave them as they are and then these are the snowflakes that I'm going to use for the most little. So this is how they all turned out. I made two large ones and two small ones. Maybe I'll make a few more. I don't know, let's move on to the next one. So I have these three Styrofoam cone shapes that I'm going to make. A really

easy

Winter Wonderland look for these now, this is a yarn I bought at Walmart, it's white with a little bit of silver glitter.

I think it's perfect for Winter Wonderland and I'm not going to hot glue it, you can hot glue it on all of them. Three of these cones with which I am going to make different trees. I'm just going to use my straight pens with them, so I want to put this on the bottom first and then I'm just going to roll them up. around the cone is very tight, that's all you're doing again, you can hot glue it if you want, I'm just going to pin it because I might want to change it later, who knows, you can always change your cones every time . you decorate, I just push it down to make sure it covers well, okay, let's get to the top.

I'm going to cut it off, push it down a little bit more and then I'm going to pin it down. at the top, okay, so that's the first tree, the second tree. I'm going to wear this feather boa. I found them on Amazon a few years ago and I think they came out in a pack of four and I think this looks really cute and small and sleek and I'm doing the same thing, I'm just going to use my straight pen. Wow, sometimes they just don't come out the way you want, trying to use the whole boa here, okay? let's just pin it, place it on top here, put some pins, put one more pin here and that will do for tree number two, now to the third cone, the smallest cone I saved for the lace because I didn't know if I'd have enough lace again.

I'm just going to use the pins and I'm just rolling the lace. I have this sped up because I think it took me a little over 3 minutes to do it so I was trying to go slow and make sure I had it all even and that I was covering and of course you can see that everything is twisting and I'm holding on This one a lot so it doesn't move and uh, I'm doing the pins all on one side, which would be the back that wouldn't be seen, but you could also put these little pins so they look like little ornaments.

Here you can also use white or even colors, so I already have everything done, I have the pin at the top and you can see that is where I have all my pins lined up in the back, move this a little bit. I'm going to go ahead and put another pin here. just to hold it down so here are all the Three Trees let's look at them real

quick

now let's do the last DIY so this is one of those white trees from Dollar Tree. I'm going to open it up, there's so many different things that you can do with this this is going to be my

winter

wonderland

tree that I'm going to use.

I'm going to remove it first and I'm just going to pull the branches because I'm going to add some. ribbon in the middle I'm going to flatten all of these out they fall down a little bit okay they straighten out just a little bit there and what I'm using is some of that mesh and I have three different silver ribbons I think the last ribbon that The other two I bought them at Dollar Tree, I think I bought them at Walmart a few years ago. I don't remember where I bought them, but the white mesh looks like snow.

I love using the one from Dollar Tree, so I'm just going to cut them to this length and make them at the bottom and I'm just going to tie them in the middle here a little bit tight, and I'm going to continue with the other three pieces and I'm going a I'm going to use all of these throughout the tree, but I'll be staggering them, staggering them differently. I'm not always going to put them in the same pattern as I'm doing here, so I think I'm just going to put three at a time. down and we'll put that mesh here at the top.

I've made a few more and I'm making them shorter as I go up the tree and I have to tell you that I won't be buying this sparkly ribbon from the Dollar Tree anymore. From this you can see that he falls like crazy. I know they have a gold one and a silver one and I thought it looked pretty but I mean it really falls off so I'm not getting any more of that so I don't. I recommend it, but you know, if you like it, that's fine, but like I said, it falls off a lot, as you can see, it's all over my table here, but it's pretty, so I need to cut a few more pieces here and tie it here on the part top and then once all of this is done I need to fluff the tree so I'm just pulling everything down and twisting the ribbons so they fill the tree and you can make these trees with all kinds of ribbons you can do some

farmhouse

stuff with him, you can do some red and green that would look really pretty with the white, but since I'm doing Winter Wonderland I thought the silver would be the prettiest, so I'm I'm just going to keep fluffing all of this up.

Okay, my tree is ready. I have this can. I think it had some

chic

ken in it. I just took one of the ribbons that had snowflakes on it and it almost fits. perfect, so I'm going to hot glue it since the can is already silver, it's a perfect color. I don't need to paint it, I'm just going to line it up and tighten it to make sure I have it in the right place. I'm going to bend it to grab it here and then I'm going to hot glue it on and this is going to be the back of the tree, so I'm not going to worry about the seam, okay?

I think that looks really nice now, the next thing I'm going to do is put it on the can here, so I'm going to put the bottom base back on and I'm going to hot glue it in there so it looks nice. stay, push that in and then I'm going to put a lot of hot glue on the bottom and then I'm going to stick it on the can and let it dry, let's see how it turns out. I think this looks very pretty now. Look how all the trees look together, very good, my dear friends, I will do that for today's video.

I hope you enjoyed it and try some of these trees yourself because they are

super

quick

and easy to make. I want to wish everyone a wonderful day and see you next time goodbye for now not
