I wish I'd thought of it. Instead I hooked up my tree with cable. Now all it does is stand around all day watching Knots Landing.

talk about getting wood.

Of course you could also, really dress it up.

Bruce has just given me my next project.

I think Plastic Man is hiding in that tree.

Better get some help. ;)

Nah, I'll do it like the sweater from the other link, just a ton of em all the way up the tree. Don't worry, I already have a plan.

Just go out and buy one of these.

Buy a potholder loom and cover the tree in potholders. Oh, and I guess this is a good place to ask: is anyone else bothered by wet yarn? It's like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. ;)

Okay, this might be an old thread but I just had to comment.
As a Tree Fae I must say we all enjoy being decorated up. This just reminded me that I haven't done anything for the trees at my new home. My other house the trees all were prettied up. I love the bracelets/necklaces and will be looking to see what I can create for my sweet gum to wear.
