The Upside Down Christmas Tree

I've wanted to hang an upside down Christmas tree for several years now and finally got to do it last week at the Backwood's Marketplace! It was quirky and different, fun and festive, sparkly and twinkly and I absolutely loved it! 

I got the silver tree from my friend's garage sale last spring. It's light weight and we were needing night lights for our tent at the market, since we were staying open late. So, I decided to make it a chandelier style tree, turned it upside down, and draped turquoise beads along with red and blue vintage ornaments, and a strand of icicle lights.  

We hung it in the corner of the tent and the nearby mirror added even more twinkly lights! 

Now that market is over, I'm trying to decide where I'm going to hang it at home, because I'm not ready to put it away! Stay tuned to see where it shows up at! 

Gone Junkin', Just in Time for Christmas!

Just in time for Christmas, new Gone Junkin' repurposed flannels and Yeti style tumbler wraps / sleeves! 

Fun glamper and vintage truck patches adorn some of the shirts, while others have Christmas images, some are simply distressed, while others have lace. All are one of a kind!

Several of my customers have been wearing the longer flannel shirts with leggings and boots.

Last Sunday, at the Backwood's Marketplace, 7 of us were wearing flannel shirts that either Angea or I had repurposed for the market, so we had to all get a picture together! 

For the little gypsies - there's some smaller sized kids shirts that would look great with a pair of fringe moccasins! 

The Yeti style tumber wraps or sleeves are a fun way to dress up your stainless steel tumbler! I have 20 or 30 ounce sizes in my shop now, in a variety of patterns. (Wraps will fit some other brands of cups. These are shown on the Ozark Trails brand - measurements are included in the listings for you to compare sizes to your cups.)

And because its Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday - how about 10% off my entire etsy shop?!? That includes all the new inventory and wedding orders this weekend! Merry Christmas Y'all! Use the coupon code HANDMADECHRISTMAS to get the discount. 

Happy Thanksgiving!
