The Felt Christmas Tree Phenomenon Starts To Spread
Post written by: beagooddad
We have our first confirmed sighting of a felt Christmas tree in the wild. This one happens to have sprouted up at my niece and nephews house.
I received an email complete with a picture.
While we shan’t forego our regular Christmas Tree…ever…we did enjoy doing the felt tree. We put it on a door in our lower level and used packing tape. I used the overhead at school to trace the shapes and ours is actually 3 tiers instead of just one. You can see it when you come up for Christmas. We also used the die-cut machine to pump out ornaments. Scissors aren’t our best skill yet and felt is hard to cut. We got the same big felt at Wal-mart.

Cool, huh?
I have a promise of another tree that should be popping up soon. I’ll let you know when the pictures show up.

I am sad to report that I was unable to make the felt tree…thanks to the ice storm and power outage, but I hope to do it next year. I know that I should have power before Christmas (day 9 without), but we are leaving to go see the family in Minnesota.

I can’t resist matching pajamas! Thanks for spreading the word!

Sorry to hear about the power problems, Maria. 9 days is pretty crazy. Who would have ever thought about heading to Minnesota to escape an ice storm?

Yeah… my family is in MN, and at least they have power. LOL! Sadly, it is in the 50s now… but I am happy to have my power back (on Day 11!!!).
