    So much better than spending another $ 500 on a tree. We all have so much stuff in storage that this is inspiring.

    I love that you try things and show what can happen if things don’t go just as planned. The trees still turned out lovely and who knew you could paint a fake tree, not me. I too love the Blue Spruce. Thank you for all you video.

    I love videos that show how to save money by upcycling items. This was truly a great one. I never ever thought about painting a Xmas tree to suit my needs but this was a great idea. It really turned out amazing and it is so beautiful in your home all dressed up for Xmas.

    I also love the blue spruce trees. I have a couple of old Christmas trees,so guess what I am going to do??? What a great idea❣️ Whenever I want to paint things, I think of you. You are the perfect person to watch. You are always creating beautiful decor for every crook and cranny. I look forward to every video because you are the best artist I have ever seen. I love everything you do. I have saved every video and cherish each one. You have a God given talent that I am in awe of. I love the way you explain each project and share Do's and Don'ts, along the way. You are truly amazing. Thank you for inviting us into your home and sharing your expert advice and knowledge.

    I love blue spruce too. We have a twenty-foot tree in our front yard and it's beautiful especially when it's covered in snow. Despite the glitter malfunction your makeover is really elegant.

    Absolutely stunning! I live in Alaska and use to drag my family up the mountain to cut down a blue spruce and let me tell you we had some amazing deep blue beautiful trees over the years but one day I could no longer justify or stand the thought of killing these beauties, so this is a fantastic idea ❤

      Good morning! Thank you! I actually just painted another old tree that was out in our metal building. All the lights quit working so we spent about 2 hours cutting all the wires off. 😆🎄 I painted it just a little differently, but similar. It will be in my next video along with other DIYs. Have a blessed week! Xoxoxo

  • @phyllisgrossetti4511

    I'm sure the camera doesn't do the trees justice. Only you would spray paint a Christmas tree. I love that you are willing to take the risk and it always comes out beautifully. You also elevated them by putting them in different vessels. TFS and bringing us inspiration. Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. ❤

  • @bearg-ma9168

    This is just perfect! I have upgraded my front door wreaths with better quality ones so the cheaper old ones were going be used around the 4 lights on our garage but I wasn't happy with the look of it. Your video came just in time to inspire me to DIY them to match the blue spruce we have in the yard. It's going to look fabulous and so high end now. Thank you so much for the great video and recommendations on how to have a successful final product.

    Glad to have stumbled upon your channel. Scored at thrift store a couple of years back with a huge and high quality round wreath-----but it needs flocking to coordinate with our tree. Always put it off since I was daunted by the size/ weight of it, and the messy job that traditional flocking would entail. Am grateful for your MUCH more user-friendly ideas, which I am going to implement this weekend. Really looking forward to making our showstopper piece the way I've always envisioned, with far less hassle! Thank you.

    These turned out so nice. What do I do for a snow effect.... is to mix the glitter with the white premixed concrete in the small tub from Lowes. $9.99 a tub.Then just dap the top of the branches randomly with a medium size paint brush. Works on wreaths or anything I want to "snow" . ALso the glitter stays in the mix after it drys.
