My small space won't deprive me of a Christmas tree! You've just gotta get a bit creative when there is no room for an evergreen in your living room - but you can spare some open wall space! Michael's always has crazy sales this time of year - so, I got some faux evergreen boughs, decorations, some 3M VHB tape, Command hooks, stuck everything on my exposed brick wall, sat down, turned on Bing Crosby's Christmas album and enjoyed my tree while sipping on hot cocoa! It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
There she is in all her glory!
Exposed brick is lovely all on its own, but this time of year it could use some holiday decor - especially when it's the only space in my home I can spare for a tree!
SUPPLIES:
STEP 1: Dust and clean your surface
STEP 2: Stick tape onto the back of Command hooks
STEP 3: Design and hang your tree topper
STEP 4: Add hooks to your skirt with safety pins
Once the skirt was neatly folded and pinned, I then created hooks with safety pins on the skirts 4 corners.
STEP 5: Hang up your tree skirt
STEP 6: Add hooks to hold the boughs
Step 7: Hang up your boughs
STEP 8: Decorate your tree
I also twist-tied mini-bows and silver ball ornaments to selected branches.
Last, but certainly not least was fake snow! This can was under $5 at Michaels and goes on very easily. If it gets on your walls, no worries, it brushes right off!
There she is! All decorated and barely taking up any space!
Enjoyed the project?

Have a question about this project?
Love this idea! I have an exposed brick wall like that and I will try the Command Hooks on it. BUT I hung up a small picture on a CH inside and after a few weeks the hook gave way and it fell and broke the glass! Has this happened to anyone else?
