Hi Everyone!
In the past, I have seen my friends' Easter trees, 4th of July trees, etc. I think that they are adorable. I love the idea but I didn't want to have to dedicate space for a table tree. So I made a tree that I can hang on the wall. But, I didn't want any little branches or hooks that I could run into. I know myself, I would put an eye out! This was the perfect project for:
 |
| I have really been looking forward to trying this! |
 |
| I found this hobby wood at Home Depot. I just used a sharpie to mark my idea. |
|
 |
| Just a clamp and a saw, a few minutes later I had my pieces. I sanded the edges and... |
 |
...then primed the wood using the magnetic primer.
|
 |
| Using a sample paint that I purchased from Home Depot, I painted my tree pieces in dark green. After 2 coats and drying time, I glued the "branches" in place. Here it is, with my magnetic heart ornaments! This weekend, the tree will be hung on the wall. |

| My 16 year old. This photo made us laugh until I cried, he looks so sinister here! He hates when I take his photo, he either ducks away or makes faces. But he looked so darned cute with Autumn in his arms! I couldn't resist..... |

Your 'Heart' tree is lovely Christine. Perhaps it could be a 'Valentine' (14th February) tree too!
