Thirty Dollar Trees......

Good Morning, everyone! Yesterday I was in the market

for a Christmas Tree for my dining room. I knew I didn't

want a big tree and I knew I didn't want to pay a big 

price for it either! So, I headed to Walmart

in search of the perfect tree! I know what you're thinking and 

yes it would help if the trees were displayed with a little

more care. However, don't walk away so fast!

Because I'm going to show you how I used a $30 

Christmas tree yesterday! 

 Let's keep a running tally of my expenses below! 

Holiday Time Non-Lit 6 Ft Flocked Tree. Not a bad looking 

tree in this picture, right? 

I found this tree to be very easy to assemble 

but a bit messy. That's to be expected with flocked trees.

Next comes the clear lights. I used 400 lights on this tree.

Purchased at Walmart for $2.50 a box.

I then wrapped the tree in burlap. Now Walmart has 

burlap in the Christmas section but I went back to 

the Floral area and bought a roll because it's cheaper.

Now comes the ornaments and again I'm creating this tree on 

budget but I wanted it to have that WOW factor.

So I purchased 12 themed ornaments, one container of 50 plastic 

ornaments, and 3 packs of glittered ornaments.

Final touch, flocked branches. You could 

leave this off but I love the look. I already had 

a tree skirt in my arsenal of Christmas decor.  And here is the final 

product! And I'm over the moon for this tree!
