WALL MOUNTED CHRISTMAS TREE

Every December my family drives out to our local Christmas tree farm and my husband tries to find the biggest tree that will possibly fit into our home. The scary part is our house isn’t very big.

That doesn’t stop Rob from making sure the tree we choose will hit the ceiling and branch out as far as possible in the living room. Last year I believe our Christmas tree was about 9 feet tall and 6 feet wide.

This cute tree wall decor can be displayed without ruining the walls with nails and hooks. It is hung with Command™ Brand Hooks and Strips so it can easily be attached to the walls and removed after the holidays without damaging your walls.

For this project I used slats of bead-board that I had left over from my laundry room make over project. These supplies can be purchased at your local hardware store. Command Brand Strips and Hooks were purchased from my local Target.

I laid down my bead-board slats and decided how I wanted my tree to look. The tree was measured and taped and the background was painted with red paint.

I USED COMMAND BRAND STRIPS TO ADHERE THE WOOD PLANKS TO THE WALL.

Grab wood piece at the bottom and peel off the surface. Do not pull straight toward you to remove. Firmly press all three areas of each strip for 30 seconds each. Wait one hour to mount planks.
