Tutorial Spooky Trees

Get yourself a carpet roll. Just ask an any carpet store. Cut a hole where you want your branches. Insert.


Take duct tape and wrap around branch and then around carpet roll.









Then start adding your miles and miles of spray foam insulation. We used about three cans for each tree. The cheapest place I could find it was Home Depot for $3.82 a can. Give yourself a few days to spray, dry, spray. Then its time to add spray paint. I think flat black looks best. I forgot to tell hubby so we have half flat, half shiny on ours. It takes quite a few cans of spray paint also. Our trees are wedged up under a low ceiling to hold them up. I'm not sure how else to get them to stand up. I found this idea out of a magazine years and years ago but cant remember which one. Good luck!
