And now, a rustic, found parts, funky Ladder Christmas Display Tree

Got ladder out of shed, cut down one step, set up against the deck wall, 

cut straggly tree, gathered more evergreen branches,

 a wheelbarrow of holly and some collectibles from my office.

Did some trimming in the yard

Some cleaning using Shaklee Basic H2 solution and created a tree base.

from an industrial light shade and a very old wheel hub.

Added the lights, some old post finials, my favorite elf, 

a bit of red, silver, blue 

and a funky clothesline wheel. 

Added and subtracted some of my collectibles.

An outside ladder Christmas tree (under cover of my porch).
