I love the Crate & Barrel style but not their prices. I fell in love with these ornament trees when I saw them and knew I had to DIY a pair of my own. So I busted out my tools and crafted up these in an afternoon.

I cut all of my wood pieces, stained them and let them dry.

I drilled tiny holes in the boards with a small drill bit and then glued my pieces together with wood glue. I used a clamp and some painter's tape to hold everything while it dried.

I used a tomato cage that I snipped to size for the rods that the ornaments hang from.

Suggested materials:
  • Wood

    I'm not quite sure if anyone has asked about whether you inserted the wire before you put the frame together or after? 🤣🤣 Really cute craft project. I'm doing it.

    I love these! I checked out your blog since I was wondering what angles you used. So...will you do show us how your hubs managed to rig something to cut those angles??? Periodically I need a sharper angle than my saw allows. You would be doing many of us a great favor by giving us all a tutorial. Thanks for sharing your project.
